LURE OF D. c. HITS
HARD, so THEY
COME BACK
The lure OF Washington.
What ia ito

1t may be the city's lights, it's
stately buildings. its far-stretch-
ing parks, its official atmosphere
but whatever 1t is, it nevertheless
is. -
Records of the Civil Service Com
mission prove that the lure exists,
and that 1t calls Government en-
ployes back to Washington as the
mythical sirens entranced the
mariner and as the Lorelli beckoned
the lone boatman on the Rhine.
Many of the thousands Of war
workers who have left this city are.
becoming restless back home and
want to return to this city, accord
ing to the Civil Service Commits
sion. Many names once on the
commissions registry are reappear-
ing for appointment in Washing
ton. 3d..
There is something about this
city which attracts, is the opinion
of many Government employees. In
the minds of many there is a fas-
cinating atmosphere here which
has no counterpart in any other
locality of this country.

SECURE YOUR TICKETS
FOR THE CIVIC DIN \ Ter
BEFORE LIST CLOSES

Women Of the Presbyterian church
are making preparations 10 make the
Civic Dinner in their edifice on Thurs
day night the most satisfying and
best served affair OF the kind they
lave ever undertaken. Because OF
their interest in the Chamber Of Com.
merce expansion movement which
will have its formal launching Al this
dinner. they are taking unusual pains
with all the details.
Indications are that it viii be- nee
essary to close the reservation list
earlier than had been anticipated. The
seating capacity Of the dining room
in The church is limited To about 200
and the committee IN charge Of the
affair and the women who are to
serve the feast insist that the com
fort Of those who get their rescrVa-
tons in early shall not be sacrificed
because OF the delay of the late ones.
Word was received today from Al.
len ID. Albert that he will leave Kan
sas City tonight in order to be- in
Ardmore in ample time for the place
on the program which he is to fill.
He has never been in this city and

year when in Oklahoma of the live

FOR ITCHING TORTURE
Use Antiseptic Liquid Zemo

There is one remedy that seldom
fails to stop itching torture and relieve
skin irritation and that makes the skin
soft, clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
Zemo, which generally overcomes skin
diseases. Eczema, itch, punples, rashes,
blackheads, in most cases give way
to Zemo. Frequently, minor blemishes
disappear overnight. Itching usually
stops instantly. Zemo is safe, anti
septic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, $l,00 1t will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.
