WHY SOCIETY W0MEN WASH
THEIR OWN HAIR

They do. not because IT is fad.
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair 1t IS never wise TO
use Il makeshift, but is ALWAYS ad-
visab!e to use a preparation made for
sl,ampooinE only. alany of our
friends say they set the best results
from simple home made Canthroy
mixture. You can use this at a cost Of
about cents shampoo by getting
some canthroS from your druggist
and dissolving a tcaspoonfui In q
cup OF hot water. This makes enough
shampoo liquid to apply to al! the
hair instead OF just the top Of the
head, as with most preparations.
Dandruff. excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear in the
rinsine water. Your hair will be 80
fluffy that 1t Will look much heavier

The Fiery Cross
TO Harry Lauderl

LIE STOOD behind the footlights and
K he set tbs crowd a-laughing
With the same old grooming chuckle that
we loved in other years.
And only those who knew could guess The
grief behind the dating
But for those who knew the laughter had
a secret salt Of tears.
Then at last he came out III his grass
green coat and bonnet,
With his gaudy tartans colored like a
garden in the sun,
The same quaint little figure-but diff
ferent face was on it
When he sang Us Of the laddes that
fought and won.
A face lined hard with burrows where
the plough of pain had driven,
Blue eyes that had grown shadow-set
through many sleepless night
The face of one who moro than life un
grudgingly had given,
Who called on us to do as well--and, All.
we owned his right!
We saw in him the Fiery Cross Of Scot
land, charred and CORY,
And the spirits burned within us to the
challenge that he gave,
