this District signed the membership
rolls Of the Red Cross. In a city OF
this size there should be 100000 mem

entire community. 1t works for all
the people. 1t Is a cooperative or
ga MIA ton seeking the betterment of
the physical life OF the city and the

This is not drive for funds" 1t

bership does not entail specific respon-
sibility or likelihood of being drafted
for service. 1t does, however, signify
that the person who wears the little
emblem of the organization is in sym
pathy with it's work.
In their appeal to the people of
Washington to give their support this
year again, the District Commission
ers have briefly recited the accom-
plishments in peace times as well as
war time of the Red Cross in the capt.
tai. 1t is an impressive review of ac-
tivities, helpful and corrective and
constructive. Every member of the
order should feel a personal pride in
the record. The hope is that by the
end of the fortnight of endeavor at
least one-fifth of this community will
have the right to say we when
speaking of this great organization.

A United Minority.

he is the solitary democratic member

He will be minority leader and minor

Gov. Hobby's greeting to the Presi-

latter into Texas yesterday and the
President-elect's response were both
felicitously phrased. Mr.. Harding has

President he will find large oppor-

will be the chief executive of all the
people. and a welcome guest wherever
he visits. In Texas as,in his own state

Their decision, as the story related
was in favor Of Gov. Cox. They
thought he could turn the trick. At
any rate these men, all delegates to
the convention. supported the Buck.
eye for the nomination and he was
nominated.
But they were ':off" in their calcu.

on election day to put his state over
for the nominee. All met with the
defeat Of their lives. All were buried
under an avalanche Of opposition
votes. Mr.. Murphy lost his state by a
vote SO large it looked incredible the
morning after it had been thrown.

Dandrufv Heads

If you want plenty of thick. beau

get rid of dandruff, for it will starve
your hair and ruin it If you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy 1t entirely.
To do this. get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
By morning. most il not all, of your
dandruff will be gone. and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hun
dred times better. You can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. 1t is mex
pensive and four ounces is all you will
need, no matter how much dandrufi
you have. This simple remedy never
