 "The text of the new prayer adopt ed for the President and the nation is as follows:
 70 Lord, our Governor, whose glory it in all the world; we com mend this nation to Thy merciful care that, being guided by Thy Pro- vidence, we may dwell secure in Thy peace. Grant to the President of the United States, and to all in authority, wisdom and strength to know and to do Thy will.

Some Additional Reasons Why the Money Should be Subscribed For the Roll Call of

 spirit of whole nation in an actual physical organization During the
 war the thing that aroused the won der of the rest of the world in con nection with the relief work carried on by the American Red Cross, was not the vast sums contributed for the aid of the suffering, but the allen

 work in question, but the great moral effectiveness would not have been

A meeting will be held at the school building Thursday evening at 8 o'clock to form a parent-teacher as sociation. Mir. E. J. White, who has given the subject considerable study and who has observed the operation of such organizations, will discuss the subject from the viewpoint of thr patrons and parents.

Alkali in Shampoos
Bad for Washing Hair
AMMAN
By LEO

Most soaps and prepared sham.
poos contain too much alkali. which
is very injurious. as 1t dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap and beats anything else
all to pieces. You can get this at
any drug store, and a few ounces
will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub II in. about a teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich. creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly. and rinses out
easily. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy. wavy and easy to
handle. Besides, It loosens and takes
out every particle of dust. dirt and
dandruff.

A PETER RABBIT sat watching
"A Zee.Zee the Redstart, he caught
sight OF some one about the same
size. but all in yellow, fitting about
among the bushes along the old
stone wall. There's Sunshiner cried
Peter, and without being polite
enough to even bid Jenny Wren
goodbye, he scampered over to the
old stone wall.
ooh. Sunshiner' he cried. I'm
ever and ever so glad to see you
back. I do hope you and Mrs. Sun
shine are going to make your home
somewhere near here, so / can see
you every day."
Hello. Peterr' cried Sunshine the
Yellow Warbler. for that is who 1t
was. Yes, indeed, we certainly do

I'm sorry to hear It," declared
Sunshine. Last year she made us
lot of trouble. But we fooled her.
and IL we have to. I guess we can
fool her again"
How did you fool herr" asked
Peter.
Sunshine paused to pick a. tiny
worm from a leaf. Well said he,
"she found our nest and laid an egg
in il before Mrs. Sunshine had a
chance TO lay any of her own. That's
what she did. the lazy, good-for-noth-
ing creature. But IL didn't do her
a bit of good-not a bit. That egg |
never Matched. We fooled her, and |
that's what wen do again IL she re-
peats that trick this year
what did you do. throw that egg |
out?" asked Peter.
NO" replied sunshine. Our nest |
was too deep for us to get that egg |
out. We made a second bottom for |
our nest right over that egg and |
built the sides up a little higher. |
Then we took good care that she |
didn't have chance to lay another |
egg in there"
why. then you had a regular
twostory nest, didn't you?" cried |
Peter, opening his eyes very wide.
Sunshine nodded. Yes, sir" said |
he. ''and mighty fine nest too. IL |
l do say it. IL there's any one thing |
Mrs. Sunshine and / pride ours
selves on, II is our nest. No babies
have a softer. nicer home than
ours"
All the time Peter had been ad |
miring Sunshine and thinking how
wonderfully well he was named. At
first glance he seemed to be all |
yellow, as IT, somehow, he had man
aged to catch and hold the sunshine |
