The mother found to her Joy that moth

ing her brother was home, had simply
chosen this opportunity for meeting
his wife. Jane was studying medicine
in Baltimore.
She was a great contrast to Claire,
thought the mother as she watcher
the two women side by side at the
table. Jane had her fathers flashing
dark brown eyes, and rather light
brown hair, inclined to limpness and
an unkempt appearance. She had a
long nose, small mouth with thin
lips, firm chin, an intellectual fore
head. She had a way of holding her
head that showed off the fire within
her-eagerness, passion, intelligence,
earnestness.
Jane was pretty, in an old way. and
ashamed of her prettiness. Rocks
and shoals might be ahead of her, but
whatever her life was. II would be in
teresting. Even the mother saw that.

USEFUL HAIR TONES

Very few people bother to apply a
hair tonic properly. It seems like a
very small thing to consider and one
not worth troubling about. yet like
most small things it is really very IN.
portant.
Most people apply hair tonic by up
setting small portions of the tonic
over the head, rubbing it around
through the hair and then consider
the job complete. This method unfor-
tunately gets more tonic over the hair
than into the scalp, and the result is
that the hair becomes sticky or oily.
The woman is apt to conclude that
the hair tonic is no good because it
makes her hair look so messy and
makes her shampoo it at least twice as
often as she needs to.
The only way to use hair tonic is
to part the hair, rub little tonic
down the parting. then part again in
another place, rub some tonic down
that parting, and so on until you have
covered the scalp with decent thor
oughness. A great many women find
II most convenient to wet a tiny wad
of cotton with the tonic and to rub
this down the partings of the hair.
This is certainly most convenient if
you have not one of the regulation
hair tonic bottles.
You never need use much tonic at
one time, the important thing is to get
II on the scalp. When you have done
this run the fingers through the hair
and begin the massage. which is an

 Pueblo Most Serious
 By far the most severe of the dis asters in the United States during the period covered by the Red Cross re port was the Pueblo food early In June, 1921. The rehabilitation prob lem confronting the Red Cross In Pueblo was one of the most difficult in recent years. When the first news of the horror was flashed throughout the country, the American Red Cross National Headquarters responded with h grant If $1O5,000 for relief work. Governor Shoup of Colorado apprc ciating the long and successful expert ence of the Red Cross in organizing disaster relief work, placed the en- tire responsibility for the administra- ton of relief in its hands.
 In response to appeals from Pres.- dent Harding, Governor Shoup and other governors of western states and through local chapters of the Red Cross and other community organiza- tons, philosophical citizens brought the total contributed for Pueblos re- mobilization to more than S325,00O.
 The terrible havoc wrought by the flood waters is a matter of record. More than 2,30O homes were affected and 7,351 persons were left homeless. Estimates of $500, ,000 as an absolute minimum for rehabilitation were made by Red Cross officials in charge of the relief work

Fast Work in Wall Street


 The Wall street explosion was nota- ble in that relief workers of the Red Cross were on the scene twenty min utes after the disaster occurred. The race riot at Tulsa also was unique in disaster relief annals In that outside of small emergency relief fund con tributed by the Red Cross. the only relief measures outside the city con- sisted of the service of social work CTS. nurses and trained executive whose object was t0 assist local forces in directing their own efforts.
 Tn decided contrast with the pre- viouS year, only one tornado assumed the proportions of major disaster. This occurred on April ld. in the bor- der sections of Texas and ArkansaS with the city of TeXarkana as the center. The significant feature of this disaster relief work was the fact that 1t covered sos much rural territory as to make necessary large number of relief workers.
 The famine in China, necessitating relief expenditures totalling more than 1000, ,O00 by the American Red Cross was by far the most serious of the foreign disasters In which the Red Cross gave aid.
 Builds Up its Machinery
 Tn connection with the administra- tion of disaster relief measures, an in- creasing effectiveness on the part of the Red Cross to deal with emergen- cies was manifested during the past year In BPS Chapters of the Amer'- can Red Cross there have been formed special committees to survey the re sources of their respective commun'- ties and to be prepared in case of disaster. Tn others of the 3,402 active Chapters, network of communication has been formed through which instan- tanpous relief may be dispatched 10 any part of the United States.

EDUCATIONAL
 REHABILITATION
Ex-Gov. Eberhart of Minne- sota Says Arkansas is Going in Right
 Direction

Governor McRae and the State De partment of Education are proceeding along proper lines to effect a general educational uplift of the state. it was declared by Adolph O. Ebcr- hart. now Il resident of Chicago. but three times governor of Mime. sota, who was in Little Rock on busi- ness mission. The former governor of Minnesota. talking 10 a Gazette re- porter, praised the Forward Educa- tional Movement and the educational surveys completed and proposed at the instance of Governor McRae.
 During MT. Eberhart's term as gov. ernor he initiated the educational Sys- tenn in his state that resulted in the establishment of many community schools that have become models for other states. At the close of his ad- ministration, there were more than 200 of these schools in the state.
 Governor McRae acted judicious- ly,' Governor Eberhart said. in ordering an exhaustive survey of the educational conditions obtaining in the state. for it is only upon such I survey that legislation that is to re- suit in an educational rehabilitation can be based. On the basis of these surveys the governor will he able to go before the legislature and ask for proper legislation and by the surveys the legislators will be able to deter mine what legislation is needed
 This much l did not have to do when l began by eampa gn to raise the educational standard of Mime sota. The Department of Education, under my predecessors. had compiled all the necessary data needed by the legislat ture found the result of these surveys very valuable in the formati ton of laws looking toward bet ter schools

Comments Governor McRae

T heartily endorse the educational policy of Governor McRae and ap- preciate the public service he will ren- der the state by it's successful com pletion. The people of Arkansas should get behind the movement and insure it's success.
 When the campaign for the estab- lishment of community schools was launched in Minnesota there was con siderable opposition but when the first of the schools were established the campaign workers began to teach by example by taking those who were op- posed to the schools to visit them and observe their operation. Soon all op- position was overcome and now when new schools are needed in a cOmmun- ity the consolidation or community system is invariably followed.
 Still another difficulty which l understand Arkansas is confronted with but which was never q problem ill Minnesota is q suflicicncy of funds. Fortunately the state owned the large iron ore tracts before their develop ment began and this has always pro vided an ample school fund.
