need be only your own boudoir Sc
cret, Nothing more or less than
mixture of sage tea and sulphur Is
the magic. a
one may either prepare the mix
ture at home, or as most people
prefer to do, buy It already pre-
pared and ready to use. Wyeth's
sage and Sulphur is the name of
the ready.to-use preparation ana
since all druggists sell It at 7Sc a
bottle, there is really no need OF
going to the trouble of making 1t
yourself.
You simply moisten q comb or
soft brush with it, and draw it
through the hair, one strand at the
time. One application banishes tie
gray and one or two more com.
plstely restores your gray. faded
or streaked hair to its original
color. There is. no artificial, iyed
look. The whole effect is one OF
perfect naturaIness. My readers
would be surprised IL they knew OF
the thousands Of men and women
who use this preparation.

IN the meantime, the local citizen SOL
der oficers are awaiting cali before
the appropriations subcommittee OF
Congress handling the Guard estimates
for an explanation of the requests for
funds. At that time. 1t is expected the
whole armory question will be laid be-
fore the members of the new committee
and every effort made to have some
provision made In the way of an APP
propriation for the structure, or money
enough at least to begin construction.
The estimates prepared by, the. Guard
officials this year and sent to the Dis
trict Commissioners contained request
for an increase for armory rental, as It
is expected that the Guard may receive
an order at any time to vacate the old
Government hotel building on the
Union Station Plaza which 1t uses as an
armory, as it is proposed to clear this
space for use as part of the Capitol
grounds.
The. local Guard oficials we're IN
formed last week that the Traffic Bu-
reau would recommend favorable action
on the recent request of Gen, Stephan
that North Capitol street, between B
and d streets, be closed to traff1c each
Tuesday night to provide a parade
ground on which the troops can ~
drilled, as there is no drill space avail
able in or around the arTnory Sergt.
Kelly of the Trafic Bureau said he
would recommend the closing OF the
street each Tuesday night from 7 to
10 pm.

Members Of the 18th Division head

campaign and members are being urged
to Sell the Guard In general and the
division headquarters IN particular, to
members OF the local high school cadet
corpS. A note on recruiting in the cur
rent issue OF the Goidbrick, official or
IAN Of these units, says:
"A division headquarters detache-
inent, composed as 1t is, of enlisted
assistants to the oficers of the division
stan, obviously should seek to enlist
the highest type of men obtainable-
men Of good character, of better than
average education and intelligence, men
who Are soldierly in discipline and ap-
peArAnce and, what Is especially import
ant in this organization, men who are
dependable clerks, typists and stenog-
rapf1ers.

tAry training, rejecting credit upon the

Steps are being taken by the on
ciais Of the local Guard to mobilize as
much power as possible behind their
efforts to convince the next session Of
Congress that permanent armory for
the local Guard should be provided.
Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan command
ing the local Guard, has written a let
ter to Brig. Gen. E. A. Walsh, adjutant
general of the Minnesota National
Guard and former president of the
National Guard Association of the
United States, for the purpose of ascer-
tAining whether the latter organization
would again this year put its power be-
hind the local militia IN its work toward
getting a suitable armory.
Gen. Walsh replied that the associa
ton, at its recent convention, author
lied It's executive council to interest
itself IN such projects. The council. it
is understood, has full authority to act
IN the matter and it is expected that it
will take up efforts started by officials
Of the association last year when they
came here and conferred with members
OF Congress on the matter of providing
an armory for the local troops. How
ever, Gen. walsh also informed the To-
cal general that Maj. Gen. Alfred F.
Foote Of Boston has been elected to the
presidency of the national association.
He also informed the general that he
understood that the executive council of
the ASSOCIATION was to meet here early
in December for the consideration Of
matters affecting the Guard as whole.
1t was said to be probable that the
local officials would Immediately COM
Inunicate with Gen. Foote with a view
to having that official instruct the co1n-
Gil to assist the local Guard in getting
an Armory from Congress, pointing out
that the local organization was Fed
eral one and, at least, the Federal Gov
ernrnent should set an example for the
States having Guard organizations. by

The new style roll collar blouses,
adopted as the uniform for the Army,
are expected to feature the National
Guard OF the District of Columbia when
they turn out on public occasions after
the lst of January. The brigade
headquarters, it was said, has received
information from the War Department
that 1t is planned to equip the National
Guard of the country by that time and
that some of the western States al

However. in order that there may be
no waste of the old uniforms, it is
specified that the men are only to
wear the new ones on special occasions.
At other times, such as at drill and on
duty In the arInory, the present uni
form, with the high, stiff collar band
on the blouse, is to be worn. This will
be kept up until all of the present uni
form equipment in the possession of
the Guard becomes unserviceable. The
