T0DAY's AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspic-

very careful in hair washing. We
will have virtually no hair troubles.
An especially fine shampoo for this
weather. one that brings out all
the natural beauty of the hair; that
dissolves and entirely removes all
dandruff. excess oil and dirt; can
easily be used at trifling expense by
| simply dissolving a teaspoonful Of
canthrox (Which you can get at any
ldruggists) in a cup of hot water.
This makes full cup OF shampoo

CLASSES
IN NUTRITION
Drive in Aid of Underfed Chill
dren Starts in Charge OF
Medical Inspector.

The battle against mslnutrition Of
children in the Washington schools
has been opened, with the starting
OF two classes on nutrition during
the past week and four more during
the coming week.
TWENTY ONE IN FIRST CLASS.
The nrst class was opened Thurs
day In the Minor Normal School
twenty-one children and sixteen
mothers attending. Some OF these
chiidsen were underwelght as much
as nineteen and twenty pounds while
two were underweight twenty-seven
and twenty-eight pounds.
The second class started Friday at
the Thomson School. Twelfth and l.
streets northwest. Twenty-three chill
dren, seven mothers. and three fathers
were present. All the children were
more than 10 per cent underweight.
These classes are the result OF the
survey made by the chief medical In
spector. DIR. Joseph A. Murphy. ana
his stan of physicians and nurses last
winter. when II was discovered that
an alarming degree OF malnutrition
prevails among the children In the
District OF Columbia.
In fourteen selected schools
tnt VI NhN
children were weighed and measured
and given physical examinations, and
II was found that one-third were
underweight 10 per cent or more.
In these classes children VIII be
weighed each week by the school
physician and nurse and VIII be
given instruction in proper health
habits in food values and In good
hygiene. Individual charts showing
the progress OF each child's weight
will be used TO stimulate interest
NERVOUSNESS ONE CAUSE.
Malnutrition, II was pointed out,
is not entirely a lack of underfeed
ing. or even lack Of proper food.
Is often caused by nervousness, d.
to overactivities or by unsuspect'
but readily durable physical defect
One boy. eighteen pounds under
" eight. was found to be below nor
NAL because Of overexertion. This
boy carried three sandwiches TO
school for lunch. gulping them as
rapidly as possible SO he could play
bask ketball. After school he played
hard. He was told to return home
at noon for hot lunch and to discon-
t!nue so much physical exertion.
Another boy was found to be stay
ing up late at night in order to
read. Rapid eating and unwilling
ness to go to bed early were the
most common complaints.

Gen. BuIIard Says Disarmament
Means Old Position As
British PrOteCtOrate.

NEW YORK. Feb. 20.-The United
States was really under British pro-
tectorate during the world war be-
cause of a neglect OF military train
ing, and disarmament or limitation
of armament will bring 1t. or some
thing like il back over us, Major Gen.
Robert l.. Bullard commander of til"

a stirring address before the National
Republican Club yesterday.
"Any proposition OF disarmament OF
any limit alton of armament is trici>
either to gain or maintain an advan-
tage," he said.
The, generals denunciatiOn of dis
armament was given after Theodore
Marburg. former minister to Belgiums
had stated that the United States did
not need a huge armament. adding
that England. however. still needed

Republicans Say New State
Secretary Will Be Replaced
By Senator Fall.

In solving the latter, he will. OF

ly the job OF negotiating the terms OF
repayment OF $4,000. .OOO, 600 bor-
rowed from the United States by for
eign governments during the war
will rest with the state Department.
The Treasury Department viii de-
eide under what terms the loans
should be repaid But on the Sec
retary of State will fall the task Of
persuading England. France. and
Italy to accept these terms.
The Russian problem is pressing
for solution on every hand. Bust
ness men want to be allowed TO re-
sumo trade with Russia under con-
ditions that will make that trade
possible and profitable.

regime there presents another
puzzler for Hughes.
