Ohio COLLEGE TUITION

COLUMBUS, o.. Sept. 15.-That ex-
service persons of Ohio may not miss
chances for furthering their education,
If they so wish. the Ohio American
Legion, in anticipation of the opening
of state supported universities, calls
attention to the benefits that may be
had from the Jones bill, which was
passed by the last state legislature
and became effective Aug. Is.
This bill provides that any citizen
of Ohio who has resided within the
state for one year and who was in
the active service of the United States
as a soldier, sailor, marine or nurse
between April 6, 1917 and Nov. IL
1918. and who has been honorably dis
charged from such service, shall be
admitted to any school, college or uni
versity, state supported, without be
ing required to pay tuition or matri
culation fee, but shall not be relieved
from the payment of laboratory OF
similar fees.
Those attending Ohio State univers
ity under provisions of the act will be
required to present discharge certific'
ates. The university post of the
American Legion has announced that
it will have a committee on hand to
assist ex-service persons in registra
ton.

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is
very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap and beats anything else all to
pieces. You can get Mulsified at any
drug store, and few ounces will last
the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is
all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out
easily The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy, and easy to
handle. Besides, it loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandruff. Be sure your druggist
gives you Observation-Disclosures

Combing Won't Rid
Hair of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you de.
stroy it entirely To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone and three or four more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adver-
tisement.
