TO HONOR FRANKLIN
U. s. TO CELEBRATE 213TH BIRTH
DAY OF PHILOSOPHER
Purpose Of Observance Is To Encour-
age Continuance of Ma
tionaI Thrift

Washington.-B Benjamin Franklin,
whose picture adorns the 1919 issue
of the War Savings certificates, will
have. on January This 213th birth
day-one of the most unique birthday
celebrations ever undertaken in honor
of distinguished American. 1t Will
have the full backing of the United
States government.
The event will be celebrated through
special exercises to be held in the pub
lie schools throughout the country and
by various children's organizations.
More than 10000 War Savings socie-
ties will make the day. a special one.
In these and many other ways the ma
ton will join in paying a gigantic
tribute to Benjamin Franklin, whose
words of wisdom on thrift and saving
are familiar in every American home
The purpose of this birthday cele-
bration is to encourage the continu-
ance of national thrift. Americans,
prewar MASTERS, became notable savers
under wars pressure. Matchmaking
this newly acquired thrift habit is the
task undertaken by the United States
treasury. Wise buying, sane saving
and sane investment are the watch
words of the 1919 thrift program.
In Franklin's day the almanac was
one of the most popular forms Of lit
erature. For years Franklin himself
was the author of an almanac bearing
the signature of Richard Saunders,
popularity known as Poor Richard"
Many of Franklin's trite sayings are
as applicable now as then.
Money can beget money, and its
offspring can beget more, and so on"
said Poor Richard" in his "Advice to
Young Tradesman."
HE that waits upon fortune is new
er sure of a dinner again said Frank
lin. Look before or you'll find your
self behind. Beware of small ex-
penses; a small leak will sink great
ship"
These and many other of FranAlin's
sayings will be utilized as texts in spe-
cial birthday anniversary events en-
January II.
Officials of the United States gov
eminent point out the necessity for
continued thrift. There are many
tasks in Europe to be completed; the
army of occupation must be main
tanned, and many hundreds of thou
sands of American soldiers are to be
returned to their homes. The treas
ury department has therefore launch
ed program of education of the
American people in thrift and saving.
This program will reach every line OF
endeavor.

Within ten minutes after an applt'
cation of Danderine you can not find
single trace of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after few
weeks use, when you see new hair, fine
and downy at first-yes-but really
new h0ir-growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty Of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten cloth with Dan
derine and carefully draw it through
your hair, taking one small strand at
time. The effect is amazing-your hair
will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have
an appearance of abundance; an in
comparable lustre, softness and luxu-
rance.
Get small bottle Of Knowlton's
Danderine for few cents at any drug
store or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of it if you will just try little Dan
derine.-Adv.

Lloyd George and Clemenceau.

Election se.ults in England and pro-
ceedings in the French chamber of
deputies clearly establish Lloyd George
rand Gemenceau as the leaders of those
two countries in the work Of making
peace. Lloyd Georges coalition min
istry is given an unprecedented back
I ing of votes in parliament which in
sures him tenure Of Office, barring
reactions, for the entire period of peace
adjustment. The vote of confidence
obtained yesterday by Clemenceau
practically puts him on the same plane
as the British premier in point of
tenure, though the French parlia-
mentary situation is always inclined to
instability owing to the lack of def
mite party organization. In this re-
spect the British party system is much
more compact. Yet there can be little
doubt that the French premier has re-
ceived in effect definite commission
TO proceed with the work of peace
making along the lines of his, as yet
but vaguely defined, policies.
In sense these results in England
and France are tributes to the indi-
ividual leaders. The two men are ideal.
