guidance of a trained expert.
That the big ship by truck and
good roads tour which starts next
Monday will be we'll handled is as
sured by the Appointment of Jack
Cushing, as train commander. Mr..
Gushing is an ex-service man of long
and varied experience in handling
government trucks both in the stress
OF actual war conditions and in peace.
HANDLES TRUCKS FINE
Cushing was in charge of Truck
Train SO, which was the first truck
train to enter Mexico under General
John J. Pershing on the expedition in
pursuit of Pancho Villa. The way in
which the trucks were handled and
did their work across the trackless
Mexican wastes has since been the
subject of wonder and favorable COM
ment.
Mr.. Cushing was also later in
charge of transportation with the
604th engineers in France. From the
time of the start of the caravan to its
finish the actual operation of the
trucks will be under Train Com
mander Cushing's sole direction.

 It's known that the party reached Hawaii July II and left two days later. Later advices from Shanghai said China was preparing an elaborate program for the party of 136 mem- bers." Special trains were to be placed at the disposal of the visitors through Ranking, on to Picking and to Mukden, where the members of the party would become guests of the Japanese government, and would be taken on an extended sightseeing tour through Korea and later through Japan. Everywhere banquets, recep- tions, excursions of varIOus kinds, presentations and other affairs were being arranged.
 Newspaper men were invited to make the trip with the congressman so that there could be publicity for the trip and articles written to pro- mote better understanding between the countries. But later orders barred the newspaper men from the trip and re- stricted it to congressman and mem- bers of their immediate families.
 Who the congressman are was to have been made public when the Great Northern sailed. But the transport sailed with the state secret undivulged.

 The creator of the handsome after noon frock shown at the left of the picture above has chosen satin, yelled with chiffon, for lovely effort and has taken embroidered bands and rib bon as aids in making an ideal dress for dinner or any other formal wear. If you will imagine it in sapphire blue, in certain brown shades or in black, you will appreciate it's elegance. AS for its outlines they could not be more simple, but they are graceful and it is in the decoration that the designer has manifested his art and much ind1- viduality. The bands of embroidered net are a revival and are set in the chiffon, allowing the luster of satin to reveal itself from underneath. Long loops of satin ribbon take up this note and add additional sheen and a narrow girdle is made of this ribbon, fastening at the front with long en-

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF

X X x X X X x X X X x x X x
There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve il. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, Just get
about four ounces of plain, 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 COM
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This sim
pie remedy has never been known to
fail. (Adv)
