We casual ly studied the people seated on the benches, the children with their nurses and their mothers, the low CTS who glided past us in the Mall. Suddenly a woman of thirty or so. with a pale unembellished com plexion, crowsfeet and wrinkles, walked across our path, and with a listless movement, seated herself on a nearby bench. When we had passed beyond earshot Sally said, with a quick backward glance:

scalp and hair as you use these aids helps, too.
 Most hair loses its color because of some heriditary condition, science seems to prove. Though research has gone on for a long, long time, no one has ben able to tell exactly why this happens, ex- cept that the pigment disappears.
 If your hair is well along the road to grayness and you have a horror of salt-and-pepper effect, it is quite possible to hasten the time when you will have soft white coiffure that will make your eyes little brighter, your skin . little fresher, your lips a little redder, if you manage in the right man. ner.
 The tonics for whitening gray ing hair will not bleach 1t. They will nourish it and help it and will not destroy the color that is with- in the hair.
 Hot irons, hot water and lotions that make white hair turn yellow are exceedingly .distasteful. Beau ty depends on simplicity and nat uralness and there is nothing more artificial than a yellow streak that something has been done that shouldn't have been dome.
 Keep your hair so healthy that the natural color will finger on and on. It won't go away if you stay interested in it. At least, not for a long, long time. And if you see that your har is shining and lustrous and fluffy, 1t really won't make so much difference if 1t does.

YOUR CHILDREN
Healthier Babies

Healthier Babies
 Babies used to die by the hun dreds every simmer because of dirty bottles, milk of questionable origin, and guess work.
 It wasn't so many years ago that the mother with baby on a bot tie, had only one bottle, or per- haps two. One nipple was consid- cred enough also for twenty-four hours. a day.
 In between feelings the bottle was washed out under the spigot,
 perhaps with small shot inside to get the scum off; the nipple was
 rinsed off, or perhaps not, and the milk and water were poured in ac- cording to whatsoever mixture some friend or neighbor advised . No one thought of germs or bacill because no one knew about them. It never occurred to anyone tha' | a fluid so life-giving as milk could
 be death-giving too.
 | Cows were not inspected be- | cause even diseased COW was sup posed to give pure milk. Mother! often hunted up obscure farms and gave their babies milk from ont COW. Herd milk was thought to bt
 bad. There were no governmen, inspectors then to check up or that cows condition. Milkmen ped dled their milk and sold 1t or draft. Sometimes their barns buckets and hands were clean, but sometimes they were dirty. No one could reach these farms to see be- cause there was little facility for travel. No one knew just what con-
 ditions existed in these farms or whether contagious diseases exist ed there or not.
 Flies Took Their Toll Gn the cities there were flies, even if the milk had escaped them
 in the country, which it probably
 had not. There were no screens except
 that a bit of mosquito netting might be tackled up here and there and hung over the beds. There
 were stables everywhere ana horses and chickens, and worse still, outdoor toilets. Plenty of
 places for flies to breed.
 Remember, please, this condt- tion did not exist in the slums alone. This is rather true picture of the ignorance of a class of peo-
 pie who lived we'll in every other way. Once in a while extra careful
 mothers boiled the solitary bottle once day and rinsed it out with hot water and suds between feed ings, but no one told them it was absolutely necessary. No one told them to get a dozen bottles and a dozen nipples, wash and boil them thoroughly once a day and then fill them with the doctors (not the neighbors) formula, cap tightly and set in the ice box until needed No one told them that every thing coming in contact with a
 baby's mouth should be sterilized So babies died and mothers broken heartedly wondered why. With the new hygenic knowl. edge of purity, cleanliness. and above all the discoveries in for.
 mulas and foods themselves. the
 mother of to-day should thank g good heaven that her baby has g chance to live where thirty ol
 forty years ago he only would have
 lived only if he were too strong tc
 be killed.

"What concern is it of mine? Why should I denounce you? Any way you'll find the lake cold and you can't swim,' said Carla, thor oughly contemptuous.
 Martin thrust Anika back into the hut with one hand and putting the other under Carla's arm drew her away in spite of her resistance.
 Come with me a moment. Car la", he said behemently. T must explain 1t all to you. And then you will tell May all about it...."
 Carla and Martin walked to and fro between the huts for long while, for nearly half an hour; Mar tin talked and Carla listened. She heard of world in which men starved and girls sold themselves for two pairs of silk stockings. She heard of rooms in back yards, or stoves without fuel, of rent that can't be paid, of folly and conrad ship of sharing the last groschen. All this and more Martin brought out in a confused torrent but the earnestness with which he spoke and the emotion that made his arm tremble enabled her to understand him at last. All he said came back to the same thing. Anika had been his first girl; she wasn't to blame and a man who would refuse to help her would be a miserable cad.
 It was dark, the rain battered on the iron roofs. There was a magic in the deep, impenetrable darkness. Carla had to bring herself back to reality by lighting a cigarette. and to do this she came to halt. Mar tin waited for her and seized hold of her hands.
 "There,, I've told you everything. Now you know all about me. Tell May. And help me-" he said be- seechingly, looking into her face, which was lighted up by the tiny red glow of her cigarette.
 Her expression was grave and resolute. On this remarkable and disastrous evening she looked very like May. Martin thought. She re- fiected while she smoked.
 Meanwhile Anika sat in the hut. Her white shoes and summer frock were still damp. She had lost every thing-her lover, her clothes. her title as countess, and the roof over her head. A pair og morocco-leath- CT bedroom slippers. a platinum watch, two silk handkerchiefs. and twelve schillings. were her sole pos sessions. She had neither hat nor coat and no one in the world to turn to. It struck eleven fron the Fraudenkirche. Anika put out the iamp and sat in the dark.
 It was q long time before Mar. tin returned.

 door.
 Again there were three knocks Martin pulled himself together His face grew tense and collected In two strides he turned the key and flung the door open. What dc you want?" he shouted breathless- ly into the darkness with his two fists ready for the gendarmes who came to arrest Anikuschka. Outside in the darkness stood a small figure. It was MatZ, who, true to his orders, had kept watch on the doorway of the cabin. There was another figure too--a tall. slen- der one in cloak, smoking cig- arette, with head turned aside. The gleam glowed and paied again as if 1t was being vigorously puffed There was no one else. No detec- tives, no arrest, no police. Martin passed his fingers through his tou-
 sled hair.

 "No. You're wrong this time. It's
 Carla," came the reply from the darkness.
 "Oh-Carla" said Martin. Behind him in the hut Anika was stirring stealthily. Curses on the woman. Martin stood outside the door and asked in confusion

 May turned back at once when she hearde there was lady with you," Carla replied, after two pulls
 at her cigarette.

 That's so." said Matz. expect ing some recognition for having performed his duty. Martin was frantic. His empty st mach made him giddy. His only thought was: This is a horrible mess. Aloud he said to Matz. "Right. Clear out you young rhinoceros.' Carla took out a fiashlight and turned the ray of light on Martins dismayed and despairing face. "Well?" she asked with c flicker of pity.
 "I must tell May the whole truth" he stammered after g mo- ment.
 "No doubt" replied Carla. Martin seized Carla b. the shoul- ders with both hands. "Do you know who it Is who was with meY" ne asked, getting angry. I've some Idea.

GLORIFYING
 YOURSELF
WAYS OF KEEPING YOUR
 HAIR YOUNG.
By Alicia Hart
@I9sz s7 NTH sERz!cE iNS

The color of hair has always been an interesting factor in the beauty problem. For a little while in the days of the revolution, 1t didn't matter so much. All the women and all the men adorned their locks with powder and achieved certain glamor that went beautifully with candle-light and twilight songs,
 Nobody looked old. So nobody acted old.
 But today the sheen of silver that has a startling habit of ap- bearing in dark hair long before it is due has a frightening effect upon many people. If this is hap pening to you, don't be scared. Do something about it.
 First of all, see that you have a healthy scalp. One that isn't too oily or too dry. Dry hair has a tendency to lose it's color, 50 you must guard against this factor. Hot oil treatments before your shampoo help. There are special tonics which are designed to aid either a too-oily or too-dry scalp condition. Such tonics are stim- ulating and helpful. Exercising

Westmoreland Raises
Relief; Wires Protest

GREENSBURG, Pa, Dec. 6.-Two
thousand Westmoreland County I'M
employed miners and steel workers
forced the county commissioners to
protest to Hoover, Curtis and Garner
at the Imprisonment of the National
Hunger MarcherS and to support the
demands of the marchers for winter
relief of $50 and unemployment in
Surance.
The marchers forced the commits
sioners to raise the relief rates from
$1.25 per person per month to $15C
and to go to Harrisburg, the state
capital, to get more relief funds from
the state.
The commissioners were forced tc
furnish transportation to the march
ers, many of whom had walked as
far as 20 miles to come to the dem
onstration.
Another immediate result of the
militant Westmoreland County dem
onstration was the rushing of S1,53l,-

backs of trucks, destroyed the trucks
and automobile tires, punctured the
automobile tires, and held back the

For fully "a hours the police
shouted insults at the Marchers, such
as, Get out of here, you god damned

man named Krieter. Only the most
iron-clad discipline prevented the

workers demonstrated here for the

the city manager was forced to agree
to the holding of this demonstration
the police after trying all sorts of
tricks to create disturbance, finally
charged into the crowd, swinging
blackjacks and billies. They arrested
the speaker, Lydia Rottger, and her
husband. Kenneth, both of these
white workers.
The Negro workers, who were the
majority Of the demonstrators
jumped forward to defend their white
comrades. A battle lasting ten min
utes took place, in which few
workers and some cops were hurt.

More and more detachments joined

stretched along three sides of the

Then at 1925 marching under the
elevated superstructure at the end

tremendous noise with their shouted

thousand behind the banner of the

They had marched down through
cheering crowds along the "Slum"
streets of the East Side, and they
took the center of the street down

Here they halted, and found place
in the line. The Down Town Coun-

At 12:45 the head of the column

Police worked frantically, routing
as many trucks and autos through

disregard for the danger to the lives
of the unemployed workers there to
present demands on the city gov
eminent, and show their solidarity
for the National Marchers.
All on the sidewalk on the city

PORTLAND, Ore, Dec. 6.-Threa
workers were convicted by bosses

thirty-day suspended sentence,
provided they do not turn on any
more water. These three workers,
