cocoanut oil shampoo (Which is
pure and entirely greaseless), is
much better than anything else you
can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply put two or three Tea
spoonfuls of Mulsified in cup or
glass with little warm water, then
moisten the hair with water and
rub it in. 1t will make an album
dance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough

GOV. SMALL PARDONS
CITY SCHOOL BOARD

CHICAGO, Feb. S.-A dispute over
the pardOning power Of the governor
appeared as a likely outgrOwth to-
day OF the action OF Gov Len small
in pardoning nine members and an
attorney Of the Chicago school board
who had been given fines and jail
sentences by Judge Kickham Seaman
for contempt Of court. The cases
were the climax OF a fight two years
ago over the removal Of DR.. Charle s
z. Chadsey as superintendent OF Chi
cago schools.
Gov. Small late Tuesday granted
full pardon 70 all OF the board mem
bers involved. Judge Seaman de-
clared that the governor has no
power TO pardon in such cases. con-
tending that the case Is not a Grim
inal one but "a case Of persons treat
ing with contempt an order OF a
court" Judge Seaman said that at
the proper time he would proceed "as
If the governor hadn't issued any
pardons."
The pardons were issued by Gov.
Small after the appellate court had
denied the defendants a rehearing
