GRANDMA USED SAGE
TEA TO DARKEN HAIR
She mixed Sulphur with it to
Restore Color, Gloss,

Common garden sage brewed into q
heavy tea with sulphur added. will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
a few applications will prove revela-
ton If your hair Is fading. streaked or
gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sui
phur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome. An easier way is to get .
bottle Of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound at any drug store all ready
for use. This is the old-time recipe
improved by the addition Of other In
gradients.
While wispy. gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. BY darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because IL does it so
naturally, so evenly. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with IL and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morning
ali gray hairs have disappeared. and,
after another application or two. your
hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy,
soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful toilet
requisite and is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention Of dis
ease.

To Soldiers Of

Not only did the members of the
league supply hospitality and enter
tainment, but also at times proved
worthy substitute for mothers in
distant sections of the country
Kindly advice and counsel were
meted out in response to many ap-
peals for help from boys who were
strangers in the city. 1t is not an
unusual sight to see Chinese sailor
requesting that his money be held by
one Of the women Of the league
while on tour of New York or to
observe a French "Blue Devil" in
friendly argument over the advisa-
bility of a third helping of pie d la
mode for breakfast. Every man
was welcome, regardless of his ma
tionality, race or creed.
The new Headquarters were opened
on Labor Day without ostentation
or ceremony. Instead Of an occa-
sion for formality, the opening
day marked the beginning of ser
vice.
The league was organized seven
years ago, devoting its activities to
civic and social welfare work. Dur
ing the comparatively short period
of it's existence an enviable record
has been made.

State Land Army Needs
Girls for Fall Harvest

KHE New York Office of the
Womans Land Army of
America this week issued an APP
peal for girls to work in the fall
harvests. Beans, corn, apples and
other fruits and potatoes must
be harvested at once and girls are
badly needed for the work. The
S O S calls from farms near Bed
ford, n Y. and in Pennsylvania
are most insistent.
No relief has been felt in the
local farm labor shortage. ac-
cording to the women Of the Land
Army in New York. In fact they
say that there is greater demand
for girls this fall than ever be-
fore. Many of the girls who
worked through the summer are
returning to their work or
schools now
Recruiting for Pennsylvania is
done at the Land Army Office
in Philadelphia, 1716 Chestnut
Street; for New York and New
Jersey, at the New York office,
10 West Forty-fourth Street.

New Child Labor
Law Supported
In The South
Miss Mia F. Allen, Head Of
Tax Division, B. l. r.,
Created to Enforce Law
I<TNHE South in general is sup
porting the new law for

vi" ps. Sa"'' ,a i" Ss se~ . i. '+ fer
prohibiting child labor"
said Miss Mia +. Allen this week in
discussing her work. Miss Allen is
head of the Child Labor Tax 1)i-
vision of the Bureau of Internal
Revenue. Her work is investigation
relative to the new child labor law.
In the South many industries
have been unblushing in their agrees
sive opposition to child labor reform.
But the investigation of the Chill
dren's Bureau of the United States.
Department of Labor have brought
public opinion to bear in such way
that many of the employers of
children have given up the fight en-
tlrcly. They realize that laws pro-
hlbitlng the exploitation of little
children are inevitable. according
to Miss Allen, and believe that they
might as we'll give up now as later.
When the last child labor law was
declared unconstitutional it's advo-
Gates Immediately started to work
on another bill which would stand
the test of the courts. The new law
passed last year went into effect
last summer. 1t puts a tax of 10
per cent on the net profits of ali
employers and industries that en-
ploy children under fourteen years
Of age, or employ children between
the ages Of Ia and 16 years for
more than eight hours on before
6 o'clock in the morning on after
Z o'clock at night. The employment
Of one child contrary to this law
will cost the business 10 per cent
of its net profits for the year.
To enforce this law a new bureau
had to be established in the Bureau
of Internal Revenue. Miss Aliens
Investigations to date indicate that
there is only one small territory in
which the tax will become effective.
This is in the South.
Miss Allen is a graduate Of the
Washington College of Law and has
worked for a number Of years in
vestigating conditions bearing On
the welfare of children. One Of
her most important pieces of work
was for the Children's Bureau-an
intensive study Of the social condi-
tons related to infant mortality.

Need No
Longer Felt

he reason given by the Labor
Department for the rehabilitation
OF the land army is the cessation
OF acute farm labor shortage now
that the fighting forces have re-
turned from abroad. There is no
longer any need for the women TO
go to the farms to worl1 from \ ma
uonal necessity. This season is the
last for the agreement made be-
tween the department and the army.
Secretary Wilson's letter to the
land army was as follows:
1T seems fitting to acknowledge
how faithfully your organization
has worked to provide the farmer
with the labor needed to plant and
harvest the crops. The department
is glad to have been able to help
You, tor you have been OF assistance
to it
The land army was organized
after Uncle Sam had taken MANY
of the farm boys to fight in France.
In the spring of 1917 an cxperi-
ment farm to try out women as
laborers IN meeting the agricultural
labor shortage was established at
Bedford. n. Y. Here recruiting of
young women WAS started. the
standards fixed for wages. working
and living conditions and other
questions connected with the en-
trance Of many more women into
farm work than had ever gone pre-
vlously. Later in the sam year.
December. TO be exact, the Nomen's
Committee of tnc Council Of Ma
tlonal Defence. the Womcn's Ma
tional Farm and Garden Associa-
ton and the Garden Club Of Amer
lea consolidated their efforts to re-
cruit women to join the land
army forces. It is reported that
chalrmen were named in forty
states to carry on this recruiting.
and l3.oCO women were placed on
farms IN twenty states

II LASSES for the girl clerks in
the local government de-
partments, especially those
who may have q defect in posture
or walking, are among the super
vised recreational facilities Just
opened by Uncle Sam at his
Plaza hotels for the war workers in
Washington. The corrective DOS
ture class is only one of a complete
schedule of gymnasium, social and
interpretive dancing groups which
have been organized, with an enrol
ment Of nearly 800 girls within one
week after the courses were opened.
Miss Florence Webster, former
pupil Of the Castles. Chalif and
Pavlowa, is the instructor for the
course. These women, who have
come from all parts of the United
States to do clerical work for the
government, have shown more en-
thusiasm and devotion to these
opportunities than any group she
has before encountered. says Miss
Webster. Mucheto the surprise of
the managers the girls to a person
enrolled for every class open to
them. With the view that because
Of the hot weather and the indoor
work they do at the government
offices the girls would probably regis
ter only lightly for several classes
month, the fees were made 81
for one or all classes. Applications
were SO heavy that efforts are now
being made to install tennis courts
and basketball grounds at once to
give the girls play out Of doors also
The dancing and gymnasium
classes are held in the recreation
hall provided in one of the hotel
groups. Once month there will
be an event called "stunt" staged
by the girls in one of the dOrmitcry
buildings, for the entertainment of
the girls in the other buildings. Each
building has its own recreation COM
mittee now, and plans are being
made for everything, from min
strel show to a series Of interpretive
dances.
The interpretive and social dane
ing classes have been among the
most popular ones with the girls.
They are allowed to utilize whatever
gymnasium outfits they may have to
save the expense of purchasing new
ones, but as the classes grow it is
very likely that the girls will de-
velop a standard uniform of their
own. Miss Webster hopes that the
classes will finally include at least
1000 of the 1900 girls which the
hotel can accommodate. The re-
ceipts, over and above the cost of
instruction, will be turned into the
hotels recreational and infirmary
funds not covered by a Congress
sional appropriation.

and Marie got down to brass tacks.
Referring again to Rose Schneider
MAINS allusion to the actors having
made fun of working persons, Marie
said that she herself had always
felt that the actors were a kind of

wealthy people in general caused a
stiffening Of her audience. Miss
Dressler said that she was terribly
worried over the economic situation
in this country.
"The more wages go up, the more
everything goes up" she mourned,
but there was no perceptible sad
ness among her hearers. Again she
stated:
"There. must be some poor peo-
pie and some rich people always"
and several of the audience ex-
changed chances. Marie is rather
a novice as on some of this radical
labor stuff.

3. Wilson of the Labor Department
tor its work toward the increase
of food production marks the pass
ing from Federal service of another
organization formed by American
women to help their country win the
war. This letter formally separated
the land army from the service Of
the Department of Labor.
Following the signing of the ar
mlstice Mr.. Wilson made an aoroo-
ment with the land army that re-
crults for that corps would be OBJ
tanned through the local offices of
the Federal Employment Bureau
The training and management Of
these various recruits was to be left
to the land army executives.
Such an agreement placed the
iand army on a peace-time basis
under the supervision of the gov
eminent. Reports of the place
ments and other matters handled
through the local Offices were sent
IN duplicate to the national head
quarters of the army and to the en-
ployment service.
