Democracies, like individuals, learn by
being self dependent. As the need be-
comes apparent for greater popular en-
lightenment, greater understanding and
better knowledge among all people 1t
will be met. Progress and growth will
really be inspired from the bottom and
not from the top.
The opposite rule has been accepted
in the old world since the beginnings Of
civilization and II has always had calam-
itous results. In Europe the people
were content to leave their affairs in a
few hands. They were taught to be-
licve that few men, presumably wise.
were best fitted to lead and that their
duty was to follow. They driftcd. And
we know where they drifted newt
ably. A government that depends
chiefly upon one great or inspired mind
may be safe for a while. What may
happen when some one else inherits the
power vested in any benign autocrat no
one can know.
Government inspired only by popular
will may often lack great inspirations.
1t may not always be brilliant. But 1t
will be sure and it will be safe. 1t Is
that fact which validates the whole
theory Of government in modern repub-
lies and makes 1t superior to anything
else revealed by human experience. The
worst that can be said of Mr.. Wilson
is that he set up his own gifted mind
above the established checks and forces
that have been created out of our ma
tioual experience. His aims were never
selfish or ignoble. lie did not spare
himself lie gave all that he had in
what he intended to be a great and hu-
name service And yet he has not been
the ideal President for a country like
ours.
His was a one man government. The
politicians who shout this charge most
frequently do not know quite how true
It Is. But that does not greatly matter.

MAYOR MOORE tells me that he en-
A'1 tertains high hopes Of the helpful
results of the recent pilgrimage of Col
onol Mordrn, chief of the Bureau Of
Street Cleaning, to other cities in search
Of new light on that subject.
The best evidence of the honest Of.
fort in this direction Is contained In the
fact that representative of the Bu-
rcau Of Municipal Research accom-
panied Colonel Morden on his trip.
The bureau has no axes to grind.
II has no political friends to reward
1t seeks only to bring into the field
Of municipal management the business

CeTn.
1t was at the Mayors initiative that
Colonel Morden, like the Israelitish
scouts Of old, went forth ito spy out
the land"
Six months remain in which to com
plcte the arrangements, authorized un-
der the new charter, whereby the city
will do its own street cleaning and rub
bish collection.
Information Of every kind bearing
upon the subject Is requisite. The best
ideas based on the experience of other
cities along similar lines should be
available.
These facts, coupled with the sug-
gestiOns of the experts of the Bureau of
Municipal Research, should furnish the
groundwork for the new move that Is,
provided that the experiment as pro
jected Is to be undertaken in the time
specified.

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash IL with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, making the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Mulsi-
fed cOcoanut oil shampoo (Which is
pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than anything else you
can use for shampooing. as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub il in. One or two tea
spoonfuls viii make an abundance
OF rich, creamy lather. and cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily and removes
every particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly. and it leaves II
fine and silky. bright. fluffy and easy

You can get Mulsified cocoanut OF
shampoo at most any drug store. II
Is very cheap. and a few ounces Is
enough to last everyone in the fam
lily for months.
