FAVOR DAYLIGHT SAVING
Topekans Express Views on Value
of Present Plan.

E. H. CROSBY-'1n my opinion.
the daylight saving law IS a fine thing.
1t means a whole lot to the country
and it certainly gives our employees
little time to be out doors in the even
ing and make garden before it gets
dark. Some people complain that it's
hard to get up in the morning. but one
can get used to it, and you get your
spec fled amount OF sleep. anyway.
Some of the farmers are opposed to
the new plan. but I can't understand
why they could not adapt themselves
to II as easily as other people In the
busy time OF the year. the average
farmer works from sun to sun and
pays little or no attention to the clock
The main point is. it is for our uni
versal good. If a man can put in one
extra hour in his rarden every nfgft
for two months, that means approxi-
mately a total of a weeks work for
every man. Now you can figure up
what that means to the United States
as a whole. 1 am N favor of it"

Cocoanut Oil Makes
- A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much a1kali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful just plain mulslhed
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tIrely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly iniure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with Wa
ter and rub it in One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy iather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroiy The iather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruh and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and 4 leaves 1t fine and
silky. bright, fluffy and easy to man

cheap. and a few ounces is enough to
