money would be q godsend to the
management of the Industrial Homes
VINO had exhausted their funds and
had no place to turn for more He
lntimated that E. S. Herman. an
other member of the Rotary club
committee, had evolved some plans
now nearing completion for the bet
terment of the two homes and would
have an interesting report to make
at the next meeting. The commit
tee was given vote of thanks.

prepared by Samuel P. Eby, Joseph

An interesting feature of the
evening was ''phony" criticism of
the evenings entertainment by c.
Linford Scott and Preston Crowell,
which was so we'll carried out that
most of the members thought real
quarrel between these two good
friends was in progress and Presi-
dent Eli N. Hershey and Captain
George T. Lumb, both of whom were
Mortified by the vehemence of the
controversy and the near-fist fight,
tried in vain to restore order. Both
the participants left the room in
high dudgeon notifying the club that
they had resigned" only to appear
smiling and arm in arm at another
door n few minutes later and before
the club had recovered from what it
regarded as most unseemly conduct
on the part of two of it's most popu-
lar members. 1t then leaked out
that dignified "Uncle Bill Essick

Philadelphia, Feb. 5.-Declaring
that the increasing surplus stocks of
poultry. butter and eggs were ac-
cumulating so fast that consumption
must be stimulated, Arthur Bonsal,
of the Reading Terminal Market,
said last night:
prices asked for poultry, butter
and eggs are too high. That is all
there is to it. People are refusing
to buy, and to increase the con-
sumption. lower prices will have to
prevail. 4 There is plenty of poultry
offered, but little is being sold.
Fowls at 3S cents to "a cents a pound
are too high. Butter prices are fall
ing, as is the price of strictly fresh
eggs. The latter sold to-day at so
cents dozen. Butter that a few
days ago sold at so cents a pound
is selling now at 60 cents a pound. :"
Terminal Market prices for eggs
varied considerably yesterday. Strict
ly fresh eggs sold at from so cents
to 60 cents at the market stalls. In
the wholesale market fresh eggs
sold at from SO cents to Al cents a
dozen: Reports received from Chi
cago by shippers showed the west
ern market down to 35 cents a doz-
en-, with large shipments en- route to

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 sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Just
plain mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than the most expensive
soap or anything else you can use
for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out easily
and removes every particle of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The
hair dries quickly and evenly, and
it leaves it fine and silky, bright,
FLUFFY and easy to manage.
You 'can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months.
