 It will be too late to begin conserv- ing food when most of it has been used or wasted The waves did not give hack to the foolinh man the crumbs and scraps of. food he had thrown away.
 Clearly il is up 10 us to conserve those millions of bushels of food American farmers have grown for us. And we must do 1t now.
 When Herbert Hoover set apart a week as food conservation week he hoped that every person would com mence the formation of a, food con- servaton habit which would extend over all the days Of food shortage Hoover would put an end to every food waster, be that person in the kitchen. at the dining table. on the farm or in charge of the transporta- ton and storing of foods. He rightly stamps as an enemy that person who wastes food

SACETEATU TURNS
GRAY HAlRDARK
It's Grnndmother's recipe to bring
color. lustre and youthfumess to

That beautiful, even shade Of dark,
glossy hair can only be had by brew
ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sui
phur. Your hair is your charm. 1t
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray or streaked, just an
application or two of Sage and Sui
phur enhances its appearance a hum
dredfold.
Don't bother to prepare the mix
ture; you can get this famous old
recipe improved by the addition Of
other ingredients at a small cost. all
ready for use. 1t is called Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound. This
can always be depended upon to bring
back the natural color and lustre of
your hair.
Everybody uses "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because 1t
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied.
You simply dampen a sponge or soft
brush with it and draw this through
the hair. taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair has
disappeared, and after another appli-
cation it becomes beautifully dark and
appears glossy and lustrous. This
ready-to-use preparation is a delight

sire dark hair and a youthful appear

Financial Condition
Of Argentina Becomes
Strengthened By War

Buenos Aires, April 2A.-Argen-
tina's financial and economic con-
dition apparently is being strength
ened as the war drags or. The re-
public recently signed a convention
for financing the sale Of several mil
lion tons of cereals to the entente
allies, which really amounted to a
huge loan. n there have been other
events in financial circles which show
that Argentine credit abroad and
confidence at home are progressing
hand in hand.
The fact is being most widely COM
mented upon by the Argentine news
papers is that confidence at home
has become so strong that stocks of
the National Mortgage bank. known
as "~credulas hipotecarias"' are being
quoted at par for the first time in
their history. These credulas are
looked upon in financial circles as
barometers Of the nations condition,
for they are shares in a bank which
is backed by the government and
they fluctuate with the Improvement
or weakening of government credit.
Usually they are quoted around "a
to 96 and they have never gone to
when everything else was being
sought by investors.
Now there is an animated COM
petition on the stock exchange TO,
these credulas and large blocks OF
them are changing hands daily,
which the newspapers take as an in.
dication that the public's confidence
in the 1rigoyer government has be-
come so strengthened that it. at last
is willing to invest in, government,
shares the large surplus Of none,
which has been lying idle in saving.

CHANGES in
BANKING Law
ARE PENDING
House Considering Changes
in Banking Laws of Fed
eral Banks.

Washington, April 24.-1mpo:tant
changes in the federal reserve .,ank
laws are lending in the house. They
deal with election of directors, per
mission for national banks to act as
in fluuciary capacities, authority to
issue new denominations of federal
reserve notes, reserve requirements
and other matters vitality AFFECTING
banking operations.
All these changes are proposed IN
a bill based on administration recon-
mendations and have been ~favorably
reported from the banking and cur
rency committee by Representative
Phelan Of Massachusetts. Under the
provision of the bill the present law
is to be modified so as to cave to
the discretion Of the federal reserve
board the grouping of the member
banks of each district into three gen
cral groups or divisions without the
present requirement that each group
shall contain as nearly as may be
one-third of the aggregate umbe OF
the banks of the district. The pur-
pose of this modification is to make
as secure as possible a fair and equal
representation OF the directorate OF
the federal reserve banks for each
group of banks. the large. medium
sized and small banks.
1t also proposed to replace the
present ballot method Of electing a
district reserve %elector, by a provi-
sion permitting each member ank
to authorize it's president or other
officer to cast its vote in such cleo
tons. The aim is to obtain wider
participation by the banks in the
election of federal reserve bank di-
rectors.
National banks now act in fiduciary
capacities. when not in contravention
OF state or local laws. The bill ex-
tends these fiduciary capacities so as
to include guardian OF estates. as
signee. receiver, committee of estates
of lunatics'' and other fiduciary ca
pacities permitted to state banks
trust companies or other CORPORA
tions which compete with national
banks under the laws Of the states
in which the particular national bank
making application is located.
Issue of federal reserve notes in de-
nominations of $500, $1,000, $1,000
and $4,000 in addition to the denom-
inations under present law, h larg-
est Of which is only 500, is proposed
by the bill. Banks are constantly
seeking notes of larger denomina-
tions and there are daily withdrawal
reserve banks. 1t is asserted that,
federal reserve notes of large denom-
nations would serve the purpose as
we'll as gold certificates and il the
larger denominations were issued.
according to the currency commit
tee, the federal reserve banks can
pay out such federal reserve notes
and by holding their gold certificates
conserve their all-important gold sup
ply.
A practice whereby any oficer. d.
rector. employe or attorney Of a
hank stipulates for, or receives. a
commission or some other thing OF
value for procuring for someone else
a loan or the purchase or discount
OF paper or similar obligation. is to
lie prohibited under the bill. ThA pay.
