HOW TO BE RID OF
 DANGEROUS DANDRUFF

If you have dandruff you must get rid of it quick-its positively danger ous and will surely ruin your hair If you don't.
 Dandruffy heads mean faded, brittle, scraggly hair that finally dies and falls out-new hair will not grow then you arc hairless and nothing can help you.
 The only sure way to abolish dan- druff for good is to destroy the germ that causes it. To do this quickly surely and safely, and at little ex- pense, there is nothing so effective as Partisan sage which you can get from Lee &5 Osgood Co. and good druggists everywhere. It is guaranteed to bantsh dandruff, stop itching scalp and fall ing hair, and promote d new growth, or the cost, small as it is, will be re- funded.
 Parisian sage is scientific prep paration that supplies all hair needs an antiseptic liquid neither sticky or greasy, easy to apply. and delicatsly perfumed.
 ! If you want beautiful, soft thick, lustrous hair, and lots of it, by all means use Partisan sage. Don't de- lay-begin tonight-a little attention, now insures abundant hair for years to come.

1892 remaining util 1909 with the ex- ception of a short period in 1896 when she went back to Paris In 1916 after ] long and trying Illness she passed | from US, leaving with us the desire | to do something to preserve her mem- | ory for all generations.
 In 1917 we held a meeting to make l plans for this. We of the Art Asso- i citation thought of lecture course in ! her memory but difficulties arose and ] we abandoned this plan. We turned our minds. to a tablet but at first we thought this too formal as we wanted to put into the spirit and feeling and personal touch that we had Then wei found we could have a tablet of per-
 sonal design and two of our members set to. work in loving memory of her The most appropriate and the thing
 that she liked best was the pome- granate This is the symbol of Hope and Immortality. This pomegranate was designed into a border for the
 tablet an dthen came the inscription
 which we wanted to express our feel
 ing for her. This was written by
 Ozias Dodge. The making of the
 tablet was a labor of love. We post
 poned the unveiling of this tablet un- til the springtime, the time of the
 year that was so dearly beloved by Miss Morse, especially the apple blos-
 som time. and that is why we are here to ay tribute to noble woman. The assenblage then went to the hall ! of the Peck Library where the tablet has been placed at the left of the main i entrance to the library. Here Miss Nancy F. Lucas, as chairman of the i tablet committee presented the memo 1 rial to the Art Association and Mrs. Birge on behalf of the association in l turn presented it to the board of di- | rectors of the Norwich Free Academy. i Francis J. Leavens accepted the tab | let, saying that while many other ! tablets had from time totime been | presented to the school this was the l first one to be in memory of a wo- 1 man. As you come into this building i this tablet will always bring to you 1 the memory of a loving friend.
 The library and hall were artistically decorated in laurel, dog wood blossoms
 and box wood shrubs A bank of dog l! wood being placed in front of the fire place in the library with shrubs around l the platform. Around the tablet was
 ropeof laurel.
 Receiving were Miss Helen Hell
 en Marshall, Mrs. William B. Birge and Miss Nancy E. Lucas The com nnittee for the tablet. which cost about ! $500, which was raised by subscrip- !, tion, was Miss Nancy F.

 The unveiling of the tablet was pre- ceded by beautiful and impressive ervices at which the spirit of the noble character of Kate Morse was her memory. It was with heartfelt sincerity that Mrs. William B. Birge, president of the Norwich Art associa- tion, in her welcome to those assem- bled, spoke of the rare personality of Miss Morse and the high purposes of her calling. her beautiful ideals and the way in which she played her part, which should be the keynote of the unveiling.
 After Mrs. Birge's welcome, a trio, Prof. Farrell, piano. Miss Isabelle Mitchell, violin and c. D. Gallup, eel To, rendered with exquisite feeling Adagio, by Rubenstein and later in the programme gave Andante Can table by Beethoven.
 The thought of the evening and the art of Miss Morse and her life was most vividly and clearly, brought cut by Miss Eunice Gulliyer. who read a portion of Shelley's Adonais dealing with the immortality of one whose soul is 8 beacon from the abode where the eternal are.
 Miss Nancy D.
