to support life itself that it may be
impossible for them to reduce their
war debt and that there may be
grave danger of social and politi-
cal upheaVals.
Americas Big Interest
The United States, it is pointed
out. has very deep concern in
these possibilities because it has
been shown that serious social dis
turbances in Europe have a re-
action in America. If Europe should
not get back on it's feet CONNER
cially and industriously in the near
future, American businessmen be-
lieve it would mean American busi-
ness would lose all chance for a
European market for the export
surplus of manufactured goods
which it is believed will be avail
able in the United States as soon as
stocks depleted by war have been
replaced.
America must concern itself, it is
pointed out, in bringing exchange
back to normal as a means of keep
ing up the volume of export and i'm
port trade.

Removes w rinkles and
Refreshes Tired Faces

AS the skin tends to expand in
warm weather, causing wrinkles to
form. a good astringent-tonic lotion
should be used these days. Dissolve
ar ounce of pure powdered saxolite
in half pint of witch hazel. Battle
the face in this and see how quickly
the wrinkles and burrows will dis
appear-and how much younger
you will look! There's nothing bet
ter for sagging cheeks or double
chin, or for enlarged pores.
Use this simple lotion during the
heat of the day and you will find
it wonderfully refreshing. You will
lose that witty, tired look. The in
gradients. of course, are perfectly
harmless. Be sure to ask the drug
gist for powdered saXolite.

Lieut.. Col Bennett G. Clark, presi-
dent of the newlyformed National
Guard association, said at its final scs-
sion here that the association aimed to
build up the national guard and to hold
down the regular army to a small size.
Ilieut.-Col. Clark took the position that
the regular army should be maintained
just large enough to police colonial pos
sessions.
THE strong feeling existing in the
guard against the war department and
the regulars was manifested in every
session. The guard was put forward
as the basis on which the future mill
tary establishment should be builded
the guard to take the place of the train
ing schools provided in the army
scheme. Strong government support
| was demanded. Resolutions declared
that the guard had borne the brunt OF

thorize a national guard bureau. Th'
pre-war basis was asked, with many ad
ditions in power. The q Prussianism
of the regular army was constantly re
