Vast Relief Effort Launched by

The most spontaneous as well as the
largest consolidation of effort In the

disaster which threatens 100000
European children this winter. To the
headquarters. of every agency that dis
penses American mercy overseas has
comt one steady efy for months past:
the children, most helpless and blame
less sufferers in the track Of war, will
perish by the thousands before *
harvest unless America saves them
When DR.. Livingston Farrand, chair
man of the Central Committee Of the
American Red Cross, returned from a
recent trip abroad. his report throbbed
with the need of the children. From
the feeding-stations of the American
Relief administration throughout east.
ern and central Europe came letters,
cables. pleas of every sort. The Pro-
testant churches sent investigators
into after-war conditions and every
report breathed the impending tragedy
of starving and diseased children
Protestant, Catholic and Jewish, the
child life of Europe is threatened with
heartrending misery.

No children receive the free food ex-
cept after medical tests showing them

TODAY'S BEAUTY TALK

You can enjoy delightful shampoo
with very little effort and for a very
trifAng cost. If you get from your
druggist a package of canthrox and
dissolve teaspoonful in a cup OF hot
water. This makes a full cup of
shampoo liquid-enough so it is easy
to apply it to all the hair instead of
just the top of the head. Your sham
poo is now ready. Just pour a little
at time on the scalp and hair until
both are entirely covered by the CANT
lily perfumed preparation that thor
oughly dissolves and removes every
bit OF dandruff, excess oil and dirt
After rinsing, the hair dries quickly
with a fluffiness that makes it seem
heavier than it is, and takes on a
rich Iuster and a softness that makes
arranging it a pleasure.-Adv.

why a Teacher" by E. ]. Hoenshel.
At o'clock Fred A. Seaman lee
tured on the subject of "Our Course of
Study" Mr.. Seaman's lecture this
morning was one of the finest lectures
delivered during the institute. He

too easy for the pupil, that too much
aid is given by the teacher. Mr.. Sea-
man says that if the purpose of the
American school system, which is ito
make good American citizens out of
the pupils is to be accomplished, the
student must be made to rely more on
his own powers, so that he will be-
come in the future a self thinking and
self reliant American citizen.
