ON THE EVE OF VICTORY
(Theodore Wold)


Once a year at Thanksgiving time
we take stock Of the things that we
have to be thankful for. On the eve
Of the Victory Loan. it Is a good plan
for every man to set aside a little
Thanksgiving hour In which to con-
slider the responsibilities he is about
to u in this last big drive for
his government. and to consider why
he should go into the. Victory Loan
with confidence and with enthusiasm.
The northwest Is prosperous. 1t has
come through the war with moderate
sacrifices Of men and with no very
great injury to It's ordinary business
activities, and with q highly honor
able record OF achievement. Our ad-
verse balance against q tremendous
physical and moral victory Is small.

out the industrial and commercial
world
With the universal recognition and
adoption of the motor truck the pub
hes conception of how roads should
be built, also has undergone a change.
Heretofore there has been a vast diff
ference between the average mans idea
OF good roads and that Of the expert

altogether satisfactory experience

| The first thing a railroad does after
obtaining a right of-way, as everyone
knows, is to build a. roadbed and lay
the tracks. That roadbed is put in to
stay. Teh track, which corresponds to
the surface of the highway, is built
of the most substantial and practical
material to be had
WILL NOT LAST FOREVER
The railroad officials, however. dc
not expect this road bed and track to
last forever without attention. Long
ago they learned that the only way
to assure, safety and durability is To
anticipate depreciation and make con-
slant repairs.
For this purpose they maintain crews
who are continually repairing and re-
constructing the roadbeds and replace
ing tracks. From time to time flaws
are certain to develop--conditions and
elements over which man has no con-
troll are responsible. These are quickly

which always are on the lookout for

President of the Garford Motor Truck


PRESIDENT Of the Garford Motor Truck
Company.
The public's conception of good
roads has undergone a radical change
in the last two years.
Prior to the entry Of the United
States into the world war, the non
motoring American. public, more often.
than not, thought good roads were ad-
vocated chiefly for the benefit of their
more fortunate neighbors who owned
and drove their own motor cars. They
were inclined to regard good roads
laws as class legislation and were UNI
willing for the most part to lend either
financial or moral support to the con-
struction and upkeep of something
from which they derived no direct ben
Gifts so far as they could see.
That conception no longer exists
Universal recognition of the motor
trucks value as a means of transpor-
! tation, demonstrated under the stress
of war, has brought about change.
The war merely fastened what lead
ers of the industry had foreseen for
several years; it furnished the setting
and the conditions which enabled the
truck to establish itself as q factor in
! the economic life of the country. I'M
| der normal conditions it's recognition
and general adoption would have been
more gradual, but none the less con-
vincing.
NO LONGER sPEEDWAYs
The on-motoring public no longer
looks upon good roads as "speedways'
for the motoring "aristocracy." 1t has
come to realize that motor trucks are
essential as transportation factors and
that good roads are necessary to the
efficient operation of trucks. It's vi.
sion has been broadened; it sees the
advantages and benefits which accru,
from a combination Of these. factors
benefits which have a direct bearing
upon the economic conditions of the
community.

II you want to keep your hair in good

Most soaps and prepared shampoos

very harmful. Mulsified eoeoanut oil
shampoo (Which is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than any
thing else you can use for shampooing,
as this can't possibly iniure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water

lather, and eleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out cas-

leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy
