Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle. and Is
very harmful Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo (Which is pure and entirely
easeless). is much better than any
thing else you can use for shampooing,
as this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it In. One or two tea
spoonfuls will 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 it fine and
silky. bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at most any drug store. It is
very cheap. and few ounces $
enough to last everyone in the family
for months--Adv.

STEVENS, FRESHMAN, STARS

Washburn won a clean-cut victory
over Friends last night in the first
game on the home court this season,
by a wide margin of 20 to 10. Bearg's
men took the lead at the start and
were never even pushed to retain it.
The Ichabods outclassed their oppo-
nents in every department of the
game. The Friends five played a
hard, fighting game, but showed lack
of experience and team work.
The Ichabods started off with a
rush and obtained their ten-point lead
in the first half In the final period,
the visitors frightened and sped up,
both teams making twelve points in
this half.
Washburn showed good early sea-
son form. They have a strong five
man defense which the Quakers were
unable to penetrate at all during the
first half. resorting almost entirely
to long shots. On the offense the
Blue need more practice in teamwork.
Their passing was not of the smooth
running variety so essential in the
short pass game used by Bearg.
The game grew hot in the last half
Both teams were playing fast, scrappy
basketball, with fight making up for
lack of finished teamwork.
Stevens a freshman who starred at
end for Washburn during the football
season, is out for more laurels. His
HOIh 1T SudIu Was the feature Oh
Washburn's play last night. He played
a corking defensive game, without a
foul being chalked up against him.
He is fast and has lots of fight. His
passing, tho, shows room for improve
ment.
On the offensive, Lindell and Cap
tain Sharp starred, the former making
six field goals and four free counters.
Lindell's floor game was mighty good,
but he showed a tendency toward long
shots that broke up team work. Two
of these attempts resulted in spectac-
ular goals, however, that brought the
rooters to their feet. Sharp's work
under the basket brought merited
praise. Joerg, at guard, showed ten
dency to play the man instead of the
ball. His aggessiveness had cost him
three personal fouls-near the danger
line-before he was taken out at the
end of the first half. Poort's passing
was weak.
Captain Landreth starred for the
visitors. The big guard Staged a
whirlwind comeback in the last half
and ringed five field goals before he
was stopped.
There was only fair sized crowd
out to see last nights game-not a
crowd as should come out to see a
winning team. such as it looks as il
Washburn is going to have this year.
Washburn will play in Thomas GYM
nasium again tonight, with Hays Nor
NAL for her opponent. Coach Elmer
Bearg expects a victory over Robert
sons basketeers. but the Hays bunch
are coming with blood in their Neyes,
seeking revenge for the football sea-
son.

SUGGESTIONS FOR

The phenomenal development in the
Of the sweet potato which
now occupies foremost place in
Mississippi agriculture has been the
occasion for careful study on the part
Of experts for methods which will se-
cure the best returns from this con-
spicuous product 1t is a recognized
fact that although the yield Of the
state in 1919 was l0,290,000 bushels,
more than three times the 1917 yield,
and although this crop ranked third
in money value of all farm products,
and although Mississippi ranked four
tn in the nation in this crop, still the
production and most especially the
storage Of the potato need further
consideration.
Marketing Agents T. NJ Patterson

Or May offered to give the Kranss

The church contemplates moving
the cottage back and facing it on Carz

street frontage for the church. the
erection of which they hope to begin
within the next year. In the mean
time the pastor, Rev. s. P. Morris.
Will occupy the cottage as parson-
age, moving into it about April lst.
II IS understood that Mr. G. II.
Walne, whose residence occupies the
lot N the rear Of the present church
building, will purchase that building
and have it torn down.
The Baptists are not strong here in
point Of numbers, but they have made
a remarkable record in financial mat
ters.
Mr.. Lag. Abraham, who is the pres
ent occupant Of the Perkins cottage,
has rented the Levy cottaoe on the
same square and will move his family

BF EXCHANGED FOR OTHERS


Washington, March %. The tras-
ury has completed arrangements for
the exchange Of temporary liberty
bonds issued during the loan cam
paigns for bonds Of permanent form
with interest coupons to maturity at
tached, Secretary Houston announced
today.
Exchange of temporary third loan
bonds began ON March is, all banks

They need not be exchanged until
after those coupons mature, the lat
est date being October Is. Secretary

There is very little chance that win

that IN al probability the case will be

represented BY Mr.. Hamilton, a son of
1ne late u p Hamilton, Of jackson.
Practically all Of yesterday morn
ing was consumed by a conference of
the defense attorneys. The State
had probably rested earlier than The
defense had expected, and the attorn
eys required several hours in which
to prepare their case.
Dr., Johnson was the first witness
put on the stand for the defense, and
mis- testimony showed the trend Of
the defense's plea. He testified that
Mrs Watts had been mistreated bv
the deceased physician; that he be-
lleved Watts is insane and has been
so for years. He was somewhat con-
fused on cross-examination, but elung
to the statement that the defendant
is insane.
Yesterday was the most interesting
day Of the term Mrs. Watts was on
the stand for about an hour and
half, during which time there were
heated passages between the attorn-
eys over some questions asked, and
even the Judge and leading attorney
for the defense displayed feeling at
one stage Of the proceedings, the
Judge rapping twice for order before
Judge Henry became quiet
The testimony showed sordid con-
dition Of the Watts home, and the
witness broke down and wept while
relating it.
It will probably take all ofthe veek
to complete the case, as there are yet
many witnesses to be heard, and the
argument Of the large number Of at.
torneys viii no doubt consume much
time.
The witnesses who have, tat ied
this morning are Harry D. Ross,
