SUGGEST STATE MIGHT
 OPERATE GRoToN FEkRY

That the state of Connecticut should buy the Thames ferry franchise and operate the ferry between New London and Groton or let the city of New Lon don lease the Thames highway bridge. so that control of transportation over the river could be vested under one head was the suggestion made at a meeting held Tuesday by the directors of the New London Chamber Of Commerce and the special committee appointed to in- vsstigate means to secure trolley con- nection over the bridge and to inquire into complaints regarding ferry service
 The opinion was expressed that it was an unfortunate condition that the state and the city should be in competition with ur state handling the greater part | of the vehiculer traffic, which was formerly the great source of revenue fol th ferry.
 The prospect of the ferry operating a a deficit because of the automobile traf 1 flee that will go over the ThamsI rive | highway bridge Is causing the ferry com mission to sit up and take notice.

Careless Shampooing
 Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully if you want to keep your hair looking its best. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
 The best thing for steady use is 3Iulsified cocoanut oil shampoo (which is pure and greaseless), and is better than anything else you can use.
 One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich creamy father, which rinses out cas- fly. 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 fine and silky, bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy to manage.
 You can get Mulsifed cocoanut oil shampoo at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months

wich to work along the same line. That is, he said, not to move the clocks ahead but to have a general agreement for Nor 'wich that workers should go to work an hour earlier in the day and quit an hour earlier at night. This would save the hour of daylight and keep the clocks at the same time as the railroad clocks.
 When, however, he suggested this plan to a number of Norwich min operators he found that they did not favor it, say- ing that they did not believe their em- ployes could be induced to come to work an hour earlier in any way except by moving the clock forward. They believed that the Norwich workers would be bet ter satisfied to work by the clock which would show that they were going to work and quitting at the accustomed hours The hands of the clock ought to show the regular work hour, they thought, and that meant turning the clock ahead ar hour on the daylight saving plan.
