ONE PURE SOAP FOR ALL

complexions ate a tradition, and spotless homes a law, have used Ivory for everything.
 To such women there is no economy in buying harsh soaps for cleaning, and expensive soaps for toilet and bath, for they know they cannot treat their hands like the floor today, and expect them to be as soft as baby's skin tomorrow.
 They use Ivory Soap for every soap-and-water task, and keep their hands soft and smooth always, while at the same time they cleanse thoroughly and protect what they clean.
 This is the height of soap economy.
 Instead, therefore, ofa soap supply that ranges all the way from harsh powders to expensive cakes for the face, you will find both safety and economy in a full supply of Ivory in all its convenient forms. For every purpose you then have the best soap that money can buy. And if you run out of one form of Ivory, you can always fall back on another, since they are all the same pure soap. -f psocrrp c.uur

SCOUT LEADERS | TRAINING SCHOOL
S5 Men Go Through Stunts at
 Elks Club

The first meeting of the scout leaders school conducted by the local Boy Scout council was held Monday evening at the Elks club. With 47 men enrolled the first meeting had 35 present.
 Louis P. Slade, vice.president of the council, made an address of well come to the men and complimented them on their interest in scouting,
 Walter o. Cook, the scout execu- tive, was in charge and conducted the class just as regular troop Is conducted. The men were organized into five patrols of seven each and each patrol elected its own, patrol leader and assistant patrol leader They aIso selected their patrol names and call. The names selected by the groups was as follows; Cuckoo Crow. Goat. Beaver and Jack Rab- bitt. Each patrol proceeded to show the other patrol what a good name and call they had selected. The Cuckoos gave very fair imitation of the famous clock of that name; the crows were 50 realistic in tbeii interpretation of the call that many present were taken back severa years to the old days on the farm probably the most amusing inter pretation was that given by thc goats who made a noise that only ( goat can make. The beavers imitat ed the noise Of that animal skipping its tail on the water by the clappint of hands. Inasmuch as no one pres cnt could affirm that a Jack Rabbi had any particular call they con

tented themselves by holding two fingers over their head 10 represent the long ears.
 The men were taken through the intricacies of the scout tenderlood tests, the oath and laws, significance of the badge, motto sign. salute, his tory of the flag and forms of re- spect to it, and the tying of the eight tenderfoot knots. Each man was furnished with two pieces of rope and he learned the knots the scout way by actually tying them.
 This is by far the largest en- rolment that the council has ever had in training school for leaders and bids fair to be the most success ful. Any men who wish to sign up for the school or who have signed up and were unable to attend last night will be welcome next Monday night at the Elks club at which time Mir. Fay will take up the patrol leader ship phase Of scouting. Each meet HE Wllt liiiSH Wili lOut o playing of games and learning to be boy again.

Rail control of a fertile area of ap-
proximately 10000 square miles is the
prize for which five railroads, three
of which are connected with main sys-
TENS. are contending before the Inter
state Commerce Commission.
G. Z. Boles, examiner for the com
mission, said he expected to make his
recommendation before October 1. He
said the fight may be the last of
competitive nature.
only in southeastern Oregon is
there a contest among railroads ap-
preaching in consequence that of the
South Plains contest" he declared.
1t probably will be settled before our
problem"
Railroads involved for the future
control of the South Plains, an area
now populated by about 140 900 people
but destined to support millions, are
the Panhandle and Santa Fe, an
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe road,
and the only road now directly serving
any part of South Plains; the Fort
