Hair
that sparkJes

You. too, can have long. soft, album
dant hair. It's simply q matter Of
using this easy method: approved by
hair-specialists; endorsed by stars Of
stage and screen; used by millions
who haven't time for the more labori-
our treatments.
Tonight when you arrange your
hair, just put q little Danderine on
your brush. Then as you draw the
bristles through your hair, see how
the scalp is toned and soothed. See
how the hair becomes softer, easier to
manage: how its natural color is
brought out; how 1t takes on new
brilliance and lustre!
Danderine dissolves the crust Of
dandruff; helps stop falling hair:
keeps hair and scalp healthy; en-
coraages the growth Of long, silky,
abundant hair. Five million bottles
used a year. That proves Danderine's
effectiveness!-Adv.

suppressing facts on unemploy-
ment and the business depression
by Senator Barkley, CD, OF

Barkley reiterated his declara-
tion that the new tariff bill is
endangering foreign trade and

ing and in others wholly evasive."
Barkley said:
"It is perfectly evident that
the Treasury Department does
not desire to reveal the whole
facts with reference to our for
eign trade situation, and /
might add that the Postoffice
Department Il following the
same policy, for 1t has discon.
tinued for some time the issu-
ance of monthly statements
showing the postal receipts Of
the SO largest cities In the
United States.
This is in line with the policy
OF keeping from the people the

Receipts from the Halloween dance for the benefit of the street light fund, although doubtless curtailed to some ex- tent by reason of other attract ions, were nevertheless suffic- tent to yield a substantial sur plus for the light fund, accord ing to financial statement made public this week by Oren F. Hill, chairman of the Cham Der of Commerce street light committee, who, with Mrs. Hill, labored most indefatiguably to make the entertainment a suc- cess.
 The dance was one of the most unique and colorful en- tertainments ever held in the camp. Not only was the Hal loween spirit carried out in most effective manner in the novel and handsome decorative effects devised by Mrs. Hill, but was further enhanced by a fortune telling contest which created m Il h amusement among the more than 120 per sons present. In the conduct of the contest Miss Jewel Rice inn personated the time-honored Halloween witch and approp- riate prizes were awarded the winners.
 The big Pioneer Hall present ed a pretty if somewhat eerie sight, with numerous jack o. lanterns suspended in rows be- tween festons of black and or ange tissue decorations, which overhung the dance floor from end to end. The colorful ensem- ble was further enhanced by three huge jack O lanterns on the stage, which threw orange hued beams of light over the dancers. The subdued light from the numerous shaded lamps created a most wierd as- pect and cast flickering shad- ows over the dancers as they whirled and eddied to the strains of the excellent five
