expressions of grief and regret at
the death of Henry Cabot Lodge.
President Coolidge took the lead
in the outpouring of a nations trib-
ute to the career and attainments OF
the Massachusetts, senator and many
of his colleagues in congress l.-.ewise
issued statements praising his long
and distinguished service in the SEN
ate and House.
AS soon as he reached the execu-

relatives. He also designated Secre-
tary Weeks and Captain Adolphus
Andrews, his naval aide, to repre-
sent him at the funeral. Secretary
Weeks was for several years a col
league of Senator Lodge as mem
Der Of the senate from Massachu-

In a formal statement the Presi-

zone of the great men of our time.
Senator Lodge was a prominent

been our senior senator. He was this
floor leader of the senate.
"This is not the occasion to un-
dertake to review the positions he
has filled and the work he has done.
It is enough now to recall that he has
been one of the great men of our
time. He had q wide scholarship
and a wonderful facility of express
sion. His influence has been world /
wide. A large collection of his writ
ings and speeches are left to us
which will be not only OF historical
interest but of permanent literary
, value.
Full of years, bearing the honors
that have never ceased to be be-
etowed in increasing number, he has

Eoi1 to Lessen Danger

ALBANY, N. Y, Nov: 1o:-Light
rains and snow fiurries in various
sections of the Adirondacks and Cat
skills over the weekend have failed
to lessen the danger of forest fires,
Conservation Commission officials
said today. The Commission received
from it's district ranger reports of
nine new fires, all of which have
been brought under control.
Officials of the commission refused
to estimate the amount of forest
burned over during the last month,
declaring that fire rangers have been
too busy fighting fires to find time to
compile statistics. 1t was said that
the fire dangers and their helpers
would scarcely get one fire under
control when they would be called
upon to fight another in their terri
tory, or one that was believed dead"
would break out again. Thousands
of acres have been burned over, but
the amount of valuable standing
timber destroyed was not known.

long to America.

SAGE TEA TURNS
 CRAY HAIR DARK
It, GrandmOther's Rcipc to Bring Back Color and Lustre
 tO Hair


 That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brew ing a mixture Of Sage Tea and Sul- phur. Your hair is your charm. Ii makes or mars the face. When ii fades, turns gray or streaked. just an application or two Of Sage and Sul- phur enhances it's appearance a hun dredfold.
 Don't bother to prepare the mix ture; you can get this famous old recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients at small cost, all ready for use. II is called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color and lustre Of your hair.
 Everybody uses ''Wyeth's' Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it darkens so naturally and evenly that nobody can tell it has been ap- piled. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with if and draw this through thehair, taking one small strand at time: by morning the gray hair has disappeared. and after another application il becomes beau- tifully dark and appears glossy and lustrons.
