Alksli In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, if
you want 10 keep your hair looking IFS
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
pOos contain too much alkal. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins It,
The best thing for steady use is Null
sifed cocoanut oil shampoo (which is
pure and greaseless). and is better than
anything else you can use.
One or two toaspoonfpls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub il
in. 10 makes an abundance OF rich,
creamy laiher which rinses out easily,
removing every particle OF dust, dirt,

THE MALADJUSTED
BY H. Addington Bruce

TOT long ago / stood in factory and
nj watched two men at work. They were
- manipulating similar machines, COM
pick affairs needed at a certain stage In the
manufacture of a universally used article.
One man, wiry, keen-faced, carried out the
mechanical processes involved with remarka-
Bile dexterity and rapidity. The other, large,
stolid-looking, was noticeably slower and less
certain in his movements.
every week." the factory superintendent
commented, standing at my elbow, the first
of these men draws almost twice as much
pay as the second They are paid by piece
work, at the same rate, and their earnings
depend entirely on their ability
AS we walked away I could not help Won
dering what the second man thought about
while, day after day, he worked by the others
side.
to him that he was maladjusted to his job,
and that it might be worth his while to study
himself with a view to finding work for
which he was better fitted, and work which
he consequently could do with greater sat-
isfactiOn.
Then, in imagination, saw similar situa-
tons in factories and stores and offices all
over the land And I asked myself what the
ultimate cost must be, in terms of mental
stress to the maladjusted - envy, rancor,
gloominess-as we'll as in needlessly dimin-
shed output and therefore needlessly high
This problem of maladjustment to ones
vocation is, to be sure, by no means new
problem. 1t is as old as the first beginnings
Of conjoint effort by mankind.
But certainly there never was time when
solution of it was more urgently needed
than is the case today
Increased production and lower prices the
world must have Speeding up" will by
itself not suffice to this most necessary end.
There must be wiser selection of workers
for the different jobs that have to be speed
ed up
Else workers and product alike will suffer
from the straining labors of the maladjusted.
And in the long run society in general will
be worse off than it is now.
Though, to be sure, it is not surprising that
maIadjustment is widespread. Vocational
guidance and systematic study of natural apt
itudes were virtually unheard of until recent
years.
But we have them now, and we should pro-
mote them by every means at our command.
And in the colossal task Of fitting jobs to
workers every labor element should coop
erate-the employers as we'll as the en-
ployed captains of industry, heads of labor
unions. All in the end will benefit thereby.
If only all could speedily be brought to
realize this!

THE action of the Chicago convention in

taking steps to curtail Southern repre-

people OF the South; save only as it reflects
me "ell-KnoWn desire of the Republican par
ty to curtail the South's representation in
congress- 1t is evident that the Republicans
nave abandoned their hope of breaking the
soma Soutn, and have embarked boldly on a
course that is designed to lessen her in
nuence in the affairs of the nation.
Southern people generally have no direct
interest in the conventions of the Republican
party It is of no consequence to them
whether the South has much or no voice
in the nominating conventions. The South
mas never received just consideration from
the Republican party, and probably never
will
The fact is the Republican party is a
national political organization in name
of the country. It never has been. It's
leaders have no interest or sympathy for
all sections. 1t is party of sectionalism.
II the plans to curtail Southern repre-
sentation in Republican conventions will put
an end to the pernicious activities and in
fuences of Republican politicians from the
North among the ignorant and gullible
element in the South to whom they appeal,
the action of the convention, to this extent
should be welcomed.
Under the rule adopted, the Republican
national committee is authorized to fix a
limit-five thousand or seven thousand five
hundred votes-below which Congress
sional district can have delegate. Such a
rule will operate materially to reduce
Georgia's representation in Republican con-

How Do You Say tt?


The former word, elder" should
be used when one refers to members
of the same family; thus, "My elder
brother left for Europe today" not,
MY older brother" But Older"
should be used in referring to mem

the older Of the two brothers." and
This table is older than that chair"
not elder" The same rule is ap-
piled to the words eldest and "old-

than one brother. My eldest brother

When direct comparison is made
between two persons, use Older as

form: My mother is the elder of my
