Certificates for War Veterans

Governor Carl Z. Milliken and Adj
jutant General George Mel. Presson
are now engaged in an endurance
hand writing contest.
The distance is 10000 signatures.
AS the signature of the Chief EXecu-
tive hasn't quite the same number
of quirks and f1ourishes in it as has
that of the Adjutant General, it is
safe to say the Governor may win
the photographic marathon.
These 10000 signatures are at
tached to handsomely engraved GER
tificates that the State of Maine has
prepared for presentation to every
person in the United States from
Maine during the recent World War.
Even before the armistice was
signed, plans were under way for the
issuing of these certificates and Gen
eral Presson busted himself in his
odd time in securing the very best
possible designs.
The certificates are IA by 16 inches
and read as follows:

TO BE
EXTENSIVE ONE
Public Health Crusade to be Launched
in Iowa This Fall and Winter Is
Worth WhiIe-WiIl Open "
More Clinics.

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Sept. 49,
Every community in Iowa will have
an opportunity to establish an extern
|sive program of local child welfare,
public health and anti-tuberculosis
activity during 1921, under plans for
the coming year now being outlined
by Secretary T. j. Edmonds of the
Iowa Tuberculosis association
Women's clubs, commercial organiza-
Itions, Red Cross chapters, county tu-
berculosis committees, public health
nursing associations and similar orga-
nizations in every city and town are
being enlisted for the 1921 work,
which is expected to be far more gen.
eral than in any previous year.
During 1920 the association has
greatly expanded its activities. The
modern health crusade movement has
been introduced in the public and par
ochial schools, tuberculosis and health
surveys have been made in many coun-
tiles, extensive home nursing work has
been conducted, tuberculosis clinics
held, and local organizations formed
to carry on the work.
For 1921 this program is to be gem
orally extended 1t is hoped to in
troduce the modern health crusade
into every school in the state, and to
hold tuberculosis clinics in every
county.
! While especial emphasis is placed
upon the fight against tuberculosis,
the work of the association embraces
all manner of public health and child
welfare work.
The 1921 campaign will be financed
entirely through the sale OF the
Christmas seals in the various COM
munities of the state. These seals
have been sold during December for
several years, the greater portion of
the receipts being retained by local
organizations for work in cooperation
with the state association.
A goal of ten seals per capita Is set
for the Iowa sales this year, and seals
will be placed on sale in every city,
town and village, if possible, and rural
dwellers will also be asked to assist.
The seals this year are of an attrac-
tive design, and similar in many re-
ispects to those of previous years. The
double barred red cross which has
been adopted as the insignia of the
anti-tuberculosis crusader is promi-
nently displayed.

To Keep Hair Curly,
Way and Beautiful

Here is how your hair can be
cu1led nicely, easily and harmlessly.
Before doing it up, apply little
liquid silmerine with a clean tooth
brush. In three hours you will have
just the prettiest curls and waves
and they will look and feel so natural
you'll never think of doing without
siImerine thereafter. You won't be
troubled any more with hair string
ing around your face-with burnt, I'M
even ends, nor with that dull dead
appearance. The hair will remain in
curl ever so long.
Any druggist can of course supply
you with liquid silmerine, and few
LOUNGES will last you a long time. 1t
lis neither sticky nor greasy, and is
really a delightful thing to use. It
lis doubly useful because of also
serving as a beneficial dressing for
the hair.

boys and old men are streaming
through the Polish capital toward
the battle front. Mingled with
them are endless trains of supply
wagons guarded by elderly civilians
armed with rifles. All able-bodied

duties so that they may be made
available in the fight for the de-

Women soldiers are acting as
couriers and French military mis-

AS the fighting front draws
nearer Warsaw squads of citizens
are drilling in many parts of the

groups pass through the streets
many boys in knickerbockers, eld-

are to be seen side by side with the
more usual type of fighter.
Newspaper accounts declare that
the spirit of the people is to de-
