Alkali in Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
il you want to keep your hair look
ing its best. Most soaps and prepar-
ed shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp. makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless). and Is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily. removing
every particle of dust. dirt. dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly. and IL leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair tine and
silky. bright. lustrous. FLUFFY and
easy to manage.
You can get muisi1ed cocoanue oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap. ANA

The elimination Of q series of
lectures incorporating within them
an incompatible educational Gull
tural and spiritual value was achiev-
ed Monday night at the Progress
club rooms by Dr. Edward Howard
Grisgs. when he presented the most
masterful and comprehensive ad-
dress of the course. having for his
subject. "Fhe Protest Against YieIe-
ing 10 Fate" and using as an Illus
tration Calderon's drama. Life Is a
Dream"
CaIderOn's Philosophy.
CalderOn's philosophy as eX-
pounded by Dr. Griggs. became sim
ply this. Granted that life is a
dream, that this period of light be-
tween the darkness from whence we
came and the darkness whittier we
are going resolves itself into merely
nightmare OF turmoil and unrest,
and we have no proof that this
premise is not true. The problem
then is TO live as though we were
awake TO give meani to the dream
thereby preparing ourselves for the
awakening.
Fate. whether it spells for the in
dividua1 opportunity or handicap,
means obligation. DR. Griggs ok
planned. obligation to go one step
higher. showing that the man who
stumbles from the gutter 10 the
curbstone is a moral hero and he
who stops half way up the noun
tain where fate has placed him,
content to congratulate himself ON
his superiority is a moral coward.
Three Great Problems.
The three great problems brought
out by Calderon. the Spanish Shake
speare are. according TO DR.. Griggs
this protest against yielding 10 blind
destiny. the protest against foretel-
ling the destiny Of an Individual,
and the protest against foreclosing
or hindering the human will from
self extrlcatiOn from its seemingly
appointed destiny.
Fitzgerald's translation of Life Is

who read portions of the transla-
tons substantiating his reclamation

by Dir. Grisgs AS equal TO the sOlilo-

ing cargoes Sunk by Submarines Near the Coast.


 Experts employed by the British government have already been at work devising schemes for salving cargoes from sunken vessels round the coasts of the United Kingdom. France, an6 Belgium when the war is over.
 Many thousands of tons of food stuffs in hermetieally sealed vessels are likely to be reclaimed with com paratively little difficulty. Tinnef meats, preserved fruits, and concen' trated foodstuffs in vast quantities will assuredly be salved. The Britisf authorities have not been so remiss in anticipating the salvage of ssunker cargoes as the public may imagine Many commodities of an edible nature have been encased in tallow or white lead to withstand the action of thu water. Most of the tea which has been arriving in that country for some time has been doubly secured agains1 the action of salt water by means o' double lead castings.
