Constant contact Is maintained with dis

"The Rotarian," a large magazine
devoted to Rotary, is published every
month. Verbatim proceedings of the
International Convention are printed

more than one million copies Of reports,

annually will suggest a fair idea of the
enormous amount of work handled at

Rotary Achievements

Literally millions of dollars have been
expendedin boys work activities initiated
or pushed to a successful issue b yRotary
Clubs and by Rotary Clubs in associa-
ton with other organizations. For in
stance, in Buffalo, New York, the sum
of $4,000 O was raised for a high school
stadium; in Minneapolis a transportation
line for crippled children was established
so these children could go to school and
the Minnesota legislature acknowledged
Rotary as the author and vigorous pro-
ponent of its legislation providing for
adequate schools for such children.
These are but two specific instances Of
thousands of actual undertakings. Even
an approximation of the amount of
money involved would be a wild guess,
but the monetary value pa1eS to inSig-

nifcance in comparison with the community service rendered lin the de-
velopment of these activities.
But Boys Work, as stated before, is only one Of the many achievements,
Second to none in Rotary activities comes community service. Rotary
Clubs in many cities have been instrumental lin arousng a civic pride and
consciousness that has resulted in the preparation and adoption of city
beautiful plans; erection of club houses for soldiers and community settle
ment houses; the providing of night schools for aliens, and their instruction
in the fundamentals Of mericanism. Better public highways, get-together"
meetings of farmers and business men, community singing, employment
of visiting nurses, safety-frst campaigns; in fact, a complete list of the
various activities of Rotary Clubs would include nearly every phase OF

place in which to i've
There ire innumerable instances where Rotary Clubs have been called
upon for service in times of great stress. Probably the most striking
example was at the time of the influenza epidemic in the United States
and Canada, when many clubs were suddenly called upon to make surveys
of hospital facilities, organize available local resources for fighting tn
epidemic, and securing nurses from less-aficted communities

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkaH. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Null
SIZED 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 moisten your hair with
water and rub it in One or two tea
spoonfuls of Mulsified will make an
abundance Of rich creamy lather and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out cas-
lily. and removes every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly. and it leaves It fine and
silky. bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get Mulsified coeoanut
oil shampoo at most any drug store.
1t is very cheap. and a few ounces
is enough to last everyone in the
family for months. Be sure your
druggist gives you Mulsifed,-

ILLINOIS MOTORS
Auf0mofive Vehicles I'm 1890 Show
100000 Increase; Setting
Record In 1872.

Almost 10000 more automobiles
of all classes were licensed by Sec
rotary of State Louis l.. Emmerson
in 1921 than in the previous year,
according to figures announced to-
day by the automobile department.
This increase is considered remark
able in the face of the fact that
prices OF automobiles reached the
highest point in 1921.
Licenses were issued last year
for 5S3,441 passenger automobiles,
as compared with 503,762 in 1920,
an increase. of 1853 Licenses is
sued for trucks in 1921 numbered
79,907, an increase Of 14,91O over
1920; 7,041 dealers licenses were
issued as compared with 6,282, an
increase of 759. There was a de-
crease In tractor licenses. 124 be-
ing issued in 1921 as compared with
80 in 1920.
This makes a total of 670.513 Ii
censes for all classes of automo-
biles in 1921 as compared with 575,-
351 in 1920, a total increase of 49,
162.
For the last several years the
number of licenses issued for mo-
torcycles has constantly decreased,
and this was true last year when
$685. motorcycles were licensed, as
compared with 1887 in 1920.
A total of 69,226 chauffeurs' Ii
censes were issued during the year.
Receipts of the automobile de-
partment increased almost $1,000
100000 in the 12-month period. In
1920 receipts from all classes of
licenses totaIled S5,915,705. In
1921, the total was $6,S03, 307, a
gain of $SS7,602.
A new record also is being set by
Secretary Emmerson in the issu-
ing of licenses this year. To date,
more than 100000 licenses have
been issued for passenger cars.
more than $4,000 for trucks. and
more than 1000 for dealers. In
spite of the enormous number of
applications being received every
day. the department is up-to-date
in filling orders, and license plates
go out Immediately upon receipt of
the order.

economic conference called for next
March in Genoa are all straws
which show the wind is blowing
| in the direction of a league OF ma
tions or association Of nations as
the case may be.
No account of what has happened
since the League Of Nations came
into existence would be accurate
without a statement of the grad
ually changing spirit of the Hard
ing administration toward the
League of Nations itself. Pres1-
dent Harding and Secretary Hughes
are as determined as ever not 10
commit the United States to mem
bership in the league as at present
constituted but in more ways than
one they have shown an attitude OF
friendship instead of hostility. They
have Indignantly denied that Amer
lea would in Sry way try to under
mine the League of Nations. Mr..
Harding has gone so far as to say
that the league is good thing-for
Europe-and should abide. NO
longer is the mere mention of the
league considered impairment
Officials recognize the league as
going concern with a specific OBJ
ject. This doesn't mean, as some
observers have hoped, that the
United States is ready to submit for
the approval of the league certain
treaties which are agreed upon at
the Washington conference and
which must obviously be made
worldwide in their application to
be effective.
League Not Ignored.
1t does mean that the United
| States will continue to deal with
the 81 nations in the league of ma
tons as individual countries. This
will not prevent Great Britain or
France or any of the powers who
have attended the Washington con-
ference from using the machln-
cry of the League of Nations to
hasten the adoption generally OF
those treaties which only a small
group of nations signed at Wash
ington. The prospects are that
Arthur James Balfour OF Great
Britain. who has always been
prominent figure of the council OF
the League of Nations, will report
to the League of Nations at the
next opportunity and will endeaV-
or to perpetuate a friendly reIa-
| tionship between special confer
| ences of a small number of nations
such as took place here and the
larger body which includes the
| whole world with the exception OF
the United States, Germany and
! Russia. The belief prevails among
many of the foreign delegates for
the arms conference here, that
within a year both Russia and Ger
many will be admitted to the
League of Nations and that Ireland
will also take her place in the
league assembly along with Cana
da, Australia, South Africa, New
Zealand and India.
1t was an uneventful birthday
| for the League of Nations in Wash

of the foreign delegates considered
it indelicate to be quoted lest they
offend the United States govern
ment and in this policy of deferen-
tial silence Woodrow Wilson con-

Monthly and weekly bases OF pay

ask to be continued. Another rule
which the employees ask to be re-
tanned provides three hours pay for
two hours work for calls, and time
and one-half thereafter when the
full weekly assignment of hours
has been worked. The roads seek
elimination of any punitive pay
ment under this rule.
