Announcement by the government
Shat a special low rate of one and a
third fares for the round trip has
been authorized for the celebration.
Columbus, O.. June 20 to July 13, has
tremendously increased the interest
In that event and advanced manifold
4he inquiries and registrations COM
hg from all parts of the United
states. At headquarters the other
day single mail brought cash reg
Astrations from IA separate states and
South America.
The low rate has increased work
for the special committees, which
are responsible for housing the large
influx of visitors now seen to be cer-
tain. Accommodations fall into three
slassss:
First, the hotels, which have an
average daily capacity of 5000 Wis.
;itors.
The second field of accommodates
will be in public buildings, which have
been specially fitted up for this sort
OF service for the celebration. These
include the State School for the Blind,
ahs State School for the Deaf, the
large barracks which were provided
at Ohio State university for the stu
dent army training corps, and other
buildings Of similar nature held in
reserve should the throng exceed
even present generous expectations.
The third line of convenience for
the hospitality Of Columbus is in the
homes of the citizens themselves.
More than 10000 rooms have been
listed with the housing committee,
and these are card indexed by loca.
tion, telephone number and best
means of access. Visitors to the Gel.
ebration can be lodged as convent,
emily as a clerk at hotel assigns q
visitor to his room. In order that
there might be no misunderstanding

Babies or Canaries?

A man-just an ordinary man
one of the Smiths and Joneses-
took his baby to a DOCTOR This
happened in one of the middle
westerU states, but that doesn't mat
ter. 1t could have happened any
where.
The doctor prescribed various
things, and the man departed with
his baby to a druggist. One of the
things he had to buy was a bottle
of cod liver oil. There was a war
tax on it, but he thought more of
his baby than the tax. He bought
it.
Another of the items was zinc
stearate-which only babies need
and this also was subject to tax
Again parental affection triumphed
over parsimony. He bought it.
As he was leaving the store he
remembered that he needed bird
seed for his canary. He asked fol
some, and was gratitied to learn
that there was no tax.
On his way home he reflected
philosophically-wit without rancor
Yet he felt mystified. Babies" he
thought, ARE penalized the U. S
A. They are not encouraged to ex
ist. 1t is more practical to keep q
canary than a baby"
Long ago in England marriage
license cost three shillings and six
pence, and a dog tax ten shillings

aristocrat.
But there was method in this

FORD

Ford cars are important servants
everywhere. They help the family
enjoy life, bring the pleasures and
advantages of the town within reach
of the farmer and give practical ser
vice every day in country and town.
They require a minimum of atten-
ton; any one can run the Ford and
care for it, nut it is better to have
repairs and replacements taken
care of by those who are familiar
with the work and have the tools.
the genuine materials, and skilled
men to do the work promptly. We
pledge Ford owners the reliable
Ford service with real Ford parts
and standard Ford prices.

the war, when many other problems
demanded attention and when it
was the single task of the farmer to
produce sufficient foodstuffs for the
world, the country church was COM
paratively forgotten. Now it ap-
pears that the problem will be re-
earded as more vital to the life of
the entire Nation than ever before
While little has been said about
the country church in recent years
there is no reason to believe that
conditions have changed since the
last extensive surveys were made,
The conditions then we're startling
enough. In a single state there
we're 1900 vacant country churches
In three counties in another state it
was found that thirty-one churches
had been abandoned, that only 81
Der cent of the churhes were gain
lug, is per cent were stationary
and So per cent were losing. A
survey in another state revealed
that 1876 country churches had a
total membership of only 1,5OO. In
forty.six churches in two counties
of a certain state there were no
young men.
Similar conditions were found in
the rural districts throughout the
United States. The falling of in the
country church has in nearly all
cases exceeded the decline in rural
population caused by the steady
drift to the cities. Of course the
city church has gained at the ex-
pense of the country church in this
shift of population and, although
the churches of the entire country
are able to show annually an in
crease in membership, many mem,
bers are lost in transit and many
others become entirely inactive il
the city church whose numerical
strength they increase.
The plight of the country church
has been greatly deplored by religi
GUS leaders for some years, for the
rural church has long been the
source from which men of power in
various fields of activity came. II
has been estimated that about sc
per cent of the leadership in reliei
GUS affairs had its origin in th'
rural church.
Of course the constant flow of th'
country population to the big citie
lis the chief explanation of cOuntr!
church conditions. which have beer
further aggravated by the influx o.
foreign elements with their indiffer
ence to the rural church and othe
American institutions. The nova
bIe habits of the increasing tenan
population on the farms has ais
accelerated the decline of tn
church.
But there are other causes.
has been suggested that the grow
ing prosperity of many farmers

GUS affairs.
That in some sections there hav

Just as evident as it is in all SCI

result of this latter condition ha

MI RRAY.

Mary MacLarin is always an attrac-
ton. and in "Creaking Stairs" at the
Murray theater, she further oppressed
her stellar Importance upon an over
flowing house. Incidentally, she comes
in this picture, under the direction of
Rupert Julian, and his hand is dis
tinctly observable in a very cleverly
conceived and superbly acted drama
of suspense. In fact, suspense was
the principal motif Of the entire per
Torrance and it was entirely probable
and thoroughly en- joyed suspense. A
foolish, little wife, who insisted on
keeping the presence of a former adj
mirer frim her husband, although she
realizes that her husband is intensely
jealous, would not have any more
sense than to try to hide the appear
ance of crime in her own attic. No
audiences is proof against the anxiety
which Julian has cleverly engendered
lest her husband find out the true
facts in the case.

COMB SAGE TEA In
HAIR TO DARKEN IT
Grandma Kept Her Locks Dark, Clos.
sy, and Youthful with Sage
Tea and Sulphur.

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea
and sulphur for darkening gray,
streaked and faded hair is grand
mothers recipe, and folks are again
using it to keep their hair good, even
color, which is quite sensible, as we
are living in an age when a youthful
appearance is of the greatest advan-
tage.
Nowadays, though, we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering the
sage and the mussy mixing at home.
All drug stores sell the ready-to-use
product, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, called "Wyeth' 5
Sage and Sulphur Compound" 1t is
very popular because nobody can dis
cover it has been applied. Simply
moisten your comb or soft brush
with it and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears, but what delights the ladies
with Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Com
pound, is that besides beautifully
darkening the hair after few appli-
cations, it also produces that soft lus-
ire and appearance of abundance
which is SO attractive.-Adv.

Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkal, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsif1ed coccanut oil, for it is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store,
and few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abun-
dance 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 loos-
ems and takes out every particle Of
dust, dirt and dandruff-Adv.

strong views on the government of the
