LIEUT.. Cowgirl BACK
Young Topeka Attorney Was in Most
of Battles in France.

Lieut. C. p Cowgirl who was among
the first 100000 of the American
troops to reach France, stopped off
in Topeka for few hours Thursday
evening, EN- route for Seattle, Wash,
where he expects to receive his dis
charge from the army within the next
few weeks.
Lieutenant Cowgirl, formerly a
young attorney of Topeka, is attached
to the Goth heavy artillery brigade and
has been in France for fourteen
months. The 65th artillery is not a
part of any division, but was used
wherever the fighting was hottest, and
went thru all the major battles during
the last months of the war with the
exception of Chateau Thierry. Lieu-
tenant Cowgirl was not the with 65th
artillery during all the time he was
in France, but was assigned as in
structor in one of the military schools
in France for a part of the time there.
Asked in regard to the statements
which have been made that some divi-
sionS of American troops did rot have
proper artillery support in their at
tacks, Lieutenant Cowgirl said that if
that was SO it was not because the
artillery did not do their best He
said the American armies used more
artillery than any of the European
armies, owing to the fact that they
were not trained in scientific warfare
TO the extent OF the other armies. Inc
preponderance of artillery was eX-
tremely effective at the start of The
battles, but when Germans began to
retreat this very condition made it
impossible for the American artillery
to advance rapidly IS the enemy
retreated with their smaller number of
heavy suns. Consequently. the infan-
try following the retreating Germans
night often get ahead of the artillery.
Lieutenant Cowgirl expects to return
to Topeka and resume his law pra ctice
the army.

A Simple Way To
Remove Dandruf

er failed to remove dandruff at once,
and that is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, COM
mon liquid arvon from any drug store
(this is all you will need), apply it at
night when retiring: use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every sin
gle sign and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly, and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy. silky and soft. and look and
feel hundred times better-Adv.
