TRAIN YOUR HAIR AS AN
ACTRESS DOES

No class of people devotes as much
time to beauty as do actresses, and
no class must be more careful to re-
tain and develop their charms. In
quiry develops the information that
in hair care they find 1t dangerous
to shampoo with any makeshift hair
cleanser. The majority say tina to
have the best hair wash and scalp
stimulator at cost OF about three
cents. one need only get a package OF
canthrox from your druggist; dis
solve teaspoonful in a cup Of hot
water and your shampoo is ready.
This makes enough shampoo liquid to
apply It to all the hair instead Of
Just the top Of the head. After its use
the hair dries rapidly. with uniform
color. Dandruff. excess oil and dirt
are quickly dissolved and entirely dis
appear when you rinse the hair. After
this your hair will be so fluffy II viii
look much heavier than II is. Its lustre
and softness win delight you, while
the stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth.

An Alliance of HatredS
(From the New York Tribune.)

for It's own reasons would nullify
the adjudication OF Versailles. To-
gether a solid block of 20O.000,0O
people, they possess great potential
power. Germany is nominally de-
MED a large army. Observers are
posted to report when smoke comes
from the chimneys of her cannon

The order and peace of the world
rest on the concert and close union
of the western powers. With great
skill. supported by the same sort
OF persons who ten years ago said
Germany was pacific and only mill
tarists feared she was planning an
attack, Berlin and Moscow have
driven in wedges of division. Even
Lloyd George has faltered-has
yielded to the tempting voice Of a
spurious liberalism.
No one will accuse the leaders Of
the Western nations Of oversus-
picion or lack of magnanimity. On
the contrary. they have been so
credulous as to invite their defeated
opponents to a common council

There is no economic peril to other
nations in the Russo-German com
pact. The world would have both
Russia and Germany prosperous. II
Germany can furnish leadership and
Russia natural resources, resulting In
a common benefit, no one will com
plain. Moreover, II Germany profits
by the partnership she can better
pay her reparation debt.
But though there is no economic
peril in the compact there is grave
political peril Since Russia broke
faith with her allies, abandoning
them when the fighting was heavy
and since Germany surrendered to
avoid invasion the two nations have
been the moral outcasts of Europe.
They are ft copartners in an ALI
ance OF hatreds. The sinister mo-
tives and influences urging them to
ally themselves have long been
plain to everybody. At last they
deem IL safe to throw off their
masks and openly join in brother
hood of outlawry. This is what
makes the compact blackly signif-
cant.

Socialism s Worldwide FIGHT
(From the New York Herald.

The program for worldwide agi-
tation which has been adopted by
the socialist leaders in Berlin. and
which was described in some detail
in an Associated Press dispatch this
week, represents a determined eff
fort to unite the followers Of Karl
Marx internationally. and to over
come the effects Of the splits which
resulted in their organization from
the war.
There are now three socialist In
ternationals The Moscow Interna-
tlonal includes the extremists. the
communist, che supporters Of the
disastrous experiment which has
plunged Russia into economic chaos
and famine and suffering. The Sec
ond International has the support Of
the British Labor party and the con-
servative socialist Of Europe In
radicalism It stands furthest,
among socialist agencies, from the
Moscow aggregation. IL inherits the
general prestige OF the pre- -war inter
national. The Vienna international.
In which the German Independent
Socialist party Is enrolled. and with
which many South American social
lists are ahillated. stands in doctrine
between the Moscow and the Second
international.
Communism operating through
the Moscow International. having
failed to bring about the world revo-
luton against private property. is
now ready to join In the attempt TO
restore world solidarity among So
cialists. though It has changed only
It's tactics not It's object. Its leaders
believe that II worldwide co-6pera-
ton is established among socialists
OF all degrees from pale pink to
blood red, the extreme program will
gradually make Roadway.
Their method Of procedure is
simple. II involves incessant attack

Speaking quietly, without rage and
prejudice. can anyone tell why IL is
that all government departments in
all countries are slow, wasteful and
incompetent?
There must be some basic reason
for this, as the individuals in these
departments cannot all be inferior
to the individuals in private firms
Almost invariably an able man be-
comes disabled when he is placed
in a government department.
He becomes timid. procrastinat-
Ing, non-committal. evasive and I'M
profitable. He becomes a mere chat
tel OF routine.
Why IS this?
The fact seems to be that man
simply cannot be competent in a
government job. for the following
reasons:
l. There is not payment by re-
suits.
There is no piecework. There is
no profit-sharing. A man gets as
much for doing badly as he does for
doing well.
q There is no fear Of discharge.
A man may be transferred, but
as long as his conduct is satisfactory
he cannot be discharged for incom-
petence. Any sort of fool can hold
a job forever in the civil service.
3. There are no profits to be
made.
