By WILLIAM z. FOSTER.

THE death of Comrade C. E. Ruth
L enberg, who was cut down in the
prime of life and in the fullness of
his service to the workers, comes as
great shock to our party. 1t is
grave loss which we can i'll afford
TO sustain. The American working
class is VIGOROUSLY weak in leader
ship. Hence the loss of a leader in
the cause like Ruthenberg, inteli-
gent, devoted, untiring, and clear
seeing Marxist, leaves a gap in our
ranks that weakens the whole front
against the enemy.
He Was Trained feminist.
Comrade Ruthenberg devoted the
best years of his life to the educa-
ton and organization Of the masses
of workers for their struggle against
capitalism. He was trained Lenin-
list. Not alone did he understand the
necessity of educating and uniting
the workers for the final overthrow
of capitalism and the establishment
of Communism, but also that this
can be done effectively only by the
revolutionists participating actively
in the everyday struggles of the
workers in order to give them prac-
teal leadership, organization and in
struction in these battles.
Comrade Ruthenberg had an espe-
cially keen realization of the role of
the labor party in the great task of
ideologically and organizationally
uniting the masses of workers
against capitalism and laying the
basis for the eventual mass Commu-
mist Party. The affiliation of the
vast masses of workers to the capt.
talist parties stands as a tremendous
barrier to the progress of the work

Falling Hair.

dlllllS hdA'
Dear Miss Leeds: / am 80 years old
and have been troubled with falling
hair for years. My hair is rich
bronze color without any gray in it.
1t seems to grow abundantly, but it
falls out excessively. The hairs are
different lengths, SO that it is hard to
dress a coiffure I wash my hair once
every two weeks. Before the shampoo
l apply mineral oil or mango cure to
the scalp and leave it on four hours.
/ use vinegar In the rinsng water.
I massage my scalp every day and
brush my hair. / use glycerin and
bay rum on the scalp most of the
time, because my hair is very dry.
/ have quite a bit OF dandruff. At
various times I have had a hair
dresser use violet rays and also cleo
trical brushes on my scalp, with very
good results for the time the treat
ments were being given, but after
ward the old trouble returned. /
might also say that I have a nervous
disposition. MRS. w. r. II.
Answer.-Your last sentence gives
me a clue TO the cause of the persist
ent hair trouble. A nervous disposi-
ton may be the result of some physi-
cal ailment or lack of mental control
or neglect of hygienic rules. Besides
giving your hair the right local treat
ments you must learn to be poised
and serene. Take hikes in the coun-
try regularly. One does not find
nervousness among nature lovers and
outdoor people. Swimming is an ex-
cellent exercise for you, too, as it
develops muscular coordination and
poise. You see, worry, fear and the
other bugbears of the nervous system
have chemical action on the blood
stream and this is why your mental
reactions affect your body. Keep up
the brushing and scalp massage every
day. Instead Of .using bay rum and
glycerin, us an oily salve such as
the following; One ounce carboIated
vaseline, one small teaspoonful of
flowers of sulphur 10 grains quinine
suiphate and enough witch-hazel to
make the mixture spread easily on

Coffee Nut Cake.

Take three tablespoonfuls Of freshly
ground coffee and add to 1t one and
one-half cupfuls Of boiling water and
let simmer for five minutes. Cream
together two cupfuls Of light brown
sugar and one-half cupful OF butter
or other shortening. Add the yolks
of two eggs and beat thoroughly, then
add one-half a cupful of chopped wal
nut or pecan nuts. Sift three cupfuls
of flour five times. Add two cupfuls
of it alternately with one cupful of
the coffee. Add to the remainder of
the flour four level teaspoonfuls Of
baking powder and one-fourth tea
spoonful of salt. Stir this into the
batter. then fold in the stiffly whip
ped whites of the eggs. Bake in two
layers in a hot oven for 20 minutes,
then reduce the heat and bake for 10
minutes longer.
For a delicious filling use one cup
full of light brown sugar, one square
of grated chocolate and onehalf a
cupful of milk. Cook to the soft ball
stage, then remove, flavor with one
teaspoonful of vanilla and stir as you
would fudge. When it begins to
stiffen stir in one-half a cupful of
shredded cocoanut. Spread this on
one of the layers and place the other
on top. Cover the top and sides with

Milliners seem to be particularly
sensitive to the trend of current
events, and, while the dressmakers
and the shoemakers and the rest are
still considering possible ways of
showing in their wares their recogni-
ton of certain popular public events,
