FROM WAR TO PEACE
IN MOTOR INDUSTRY
Automobile Trade Did More Than
Its Bit to Help Win War.
Fleet Of American Trucks Coming In.
to Use for Additional Transporta-
ton Facilities Needs Services
of released soldiers

As a single industry the "a automobile
trade did more than its bit to help win
the war. Not only did manufacturers
come up to specifications in quantity
and quality of delivery, but they built
better than it, was thought they knew
how. Proof III this vas given the 9th
er day when, at an auction of old army
cars in France, the French aud the
English bid higher prices for the cars
than they cost the American govern
ment new. An army of men was en-
ployed to run. these trucks and cars
on the firing Zine. They gained more
experience In q month of that sort of
Il lifetime Of peace work.
The rolling stock will be left abroad
but the men are coming back. They
are being released daily from the mill
tary service, and are returning In large
numbers to civilian life. There Is no
lack Of work for them to do. For the
fleet Of American trucks now coming
into use for additional transportation
facilities all owe the country needs just
such men-men who have learned how
TO act In any emergency, who feel al
most Immediately the idiosyncrasies of
every motor, who have acquired an eff
cheney under shell fire that will make
them leaders In their work In peace
times.
Col. Arthur Woods, assistant to the
secretary Of war, who is in charge Of
the unemployment work for ex-seryice
men, that a number OF such
men, are now available for private en-
ploy. The automobile industry Will
not lose this opportunity Of obtaining
men who. TO their pre-war ability. have
added the exceptional training and e x
p~erience of months on the firing line.
These men will be In demand, and can
be obtained through governmental and
welfare employment agencies, who will
put them in touch with employers who
need their services.

half a pint OF rose water, with ten
drops of tincture of benzOin added to
prevent the glycerin becoming rancid,
Is excellent.
This mixture should be used after
the hair has been made ready for
dressing by removing all the tangles.
This done, n should put about half a
teaspoOnful Of the mixture in the palm
Of the left hand and rub the right into
1t. With both hands the hair is gent
ly rubbed and patted smooth from
forehead to neck, Oiling it, but so
slightly that the application is not Wis
ible. Afterward dressing proceeds in
the usual way. Occasionally a woman
should use a slightly wet brush after
the oiling. This must not be applied
every day or the effect Of too much
water will be drying.
Another liquid for the same purpose
Is made from one-quarter of an ounce
Of gum benzoin and four ounces OF
high-prOof alcohol. After the gum is
dissolved the liquid is strained through
coarse brown paper and two ounces
of castor oil and half a dram each Of
oils of geranium and bergamot are
added. This is put on by the same
process as was described above.
Neither of these is to be regarded as
n tonic or used as a substitute, for they
are distinctly dressings, and the man
ner in which they are put on In no
way affects the scalp. To feed the
scalp II is necessary that whatever IL
put on shall be rubbed into the pores.

When Life Grows Broader.

God does not count prosperity as
we count IT,. Our sense Of proportion
l. largely shaped by u experiences.
When life is quiet and sheltered. and
the stream rum smoothly. we notice
every ripple and magnify every small
obstruction. We are fully occupied
with our work, our small worries.
Then ONE some grief. calamity. or
new responsibility which suddenly
changes everything. Dur old interests
arr dwarfed and look so petty that we
wonder that we ever allowed such
trifies To burden our souls. BY such
experiences life grows broader and
higher aud takes 81 new values. We
have new standards of measurement
for our fellow men as well as our
selves.

fuel consumption was less for the we'll
known reason that any pneumatic-tired
vehicle requires less power.
Another factor that was much In
favor of the pneumatics was the alb
sence of injury to loads of fragile ma
terials. P%erishable goods suffer less
in a pneumatic-tired truck than they
do in a solid-tired vehicle, even though
the latter 60 at half the speed.
Lighting was another problem.
First we had kerosene lamps and
then came the carbide tank.
with some reason there WAS OBJ
lection to this on the ground that it
was dangerous.
"A lot of people had to be convinced
that If the car got into a smashup the
gas tank would not explode.
ut sounds ridiculous at this late
date, but It is a fact, that although
every motorist wanted to get away
from the drudgery and the danger Of
cranking his car there was a tremen-
dOus opposition to every form of self
starter.
1--WE expected and were prepared for
a battle when we decided that the
right thing for a light high-speed
truck was pneumatic tires, but we have
always believed It was our duty to give
the buyer the best our experience die
tated and so we went through with 1t.
Everyone now admits the pneu-
matic-tired truck is Inevitable. because
1t is the solution of most Of the truck
ing problems. so we feel well repaid
for our missionary work."

Dresses designed for the younger

youth. The designers of dress for
misses and Junior misses are not al
WAYS conscious Of their responsible
ties in this matter, but the best pri-
vate schools and academies realize
its importance. They are careful to
prescribe what may be worn by the
girls under their charge. Girls In the
public schools have not the advantage
Of this system. but the designers Of

after the most exhaustive cOmpar-

Care Of the Hair.

Women who have not the time or
money to take scalp treatments can
do about as much for themselves as
a specialist can do for them in the
treatment of ordinary hair troubles.
Ten minutes attention given to the
hair and scalp each day is more bene-
fetal than infrequent professional
treatments. The remedies for the
usual scalp and hair difficulties are
simple and inexpensive. 1t is regu-
lar and persistent care that can be
depended on TO repay the effort.
Cleanliness requires a shampoo at
intervals of two to four weeks. If the
scalp is healthy and the hair sufficient
ly abundant this, with n brisk, brief
brushing every day will keep the hair
in good condition.
To Cure Dandruf.
Take a thimbleful of powdered re-
fined boraX, let it dissolve In a teacup-
full of water first brush the head well,
and then wet a brush with the solution
and rub the scalp well with IT. Do
this every day for a week, then twice
Il week, until no trace Of dandruff is
found.
To Improve Hair.
The best shampoo for oily hair and
dry scalp is an egg shampoo, made by
adding one ounce of cold water to one
w~ell-beaten egg; rub mixture well into
the scalp and on the hair, rinse in
warm water, then in cold water, dry
thoroughly, apply a tonic and massage
the scalp for ten minutes. Each night
use a tonic and massage for ten min
utes.
Stiff Hair.
The first remedy for a woma whose
hair has begun to be stiff Is to expert
ment with slightly oily liquids until
she finds n suitable. A lotion made

I. Jesus as the Lamb OF God ". 29).

lamb to which every sacrificial offer

u. Two Disciples Following Jesus
wv. 35-3O.
As n result of the Baptist's testi-
mOny. two of the disciples leave him
and follow Jesus. At Johns request
they looked. This look was sufficient
to induce them to follow Jesus. A
sincere look upon Jesus is always
sufficient. John did not become en-
vi0us of Christ's success, but re-
joiced in it (John 3:26-29). All Sun
day school teachers should so witness
that the pupils will look to and follow
Jesus. This Is the whole method, the
sun and substance Of salvation.
10. The Disciples Abiding With
Jesus wv. 3S. 39).
Seeing the disciples following him,
Jesus made inquiry as to their object.
Their reply showed the desire to go
apart privately where they could dis
close their hearts to him. He invited
them to his abode, where for the re-
mainder of that day they enjoyed sweet
intercourse with him.
