Kennel Is DESTROYED
And Fuel Truck Burns
In Montgomery Fires

! In three separate fires in Mont
gomery County yesterday, a dog
kennel in Bethesda was destroyed,
living quarters on a dairy farm
were burned out and fuel truck
badly damaged.
Nine Boxer dogs, valued by their
owner at several thousand dol
lars, were carried to safety last
night when an outbuilding burned
down on the Ligo Knoll estate
in Bethesda.
Youth Carries Dogs to Safety.
The pedigreed dogs were rescued
from a summer cottage tempo
rarily used as a kennel in the
10000 block of Old Georgetown
road.
Philip Peyser, real estate man
whose hobby is raising show dogs,
said his brother-in-law, John
Pitcher. 18, carried the animals
to safety after an oil stove ex-
ploded. The youth suffered minor
burns.
Bethesda and Chevy Chase fire
men said favorable wind kept
the flames from spreading to the
main house and other outbuild-
ings.
Drives Blazing Truck.
In the fuel truck fire, a quick
thinking driver, fearing an explo-
sion. drove his blazing vehicle to
a safe distance from residences
in the $500 block of Old Bladens-
burg road, Silver Spring. early
last night.
The blaze did an estimated
$l,500 damage to the truck and
tied up traffic for more than half
an hour.
Albert w. Hennige, 1882 Third
street Sc, the truck driver, was
told by passerby that his vehicle
was aflame. He drove the truck
to the middle of the intersection
at Franklin avenue so as to be
as far as possible from surround
ing residences.
No One Hurt.
One unit of his tank did ex-
plode but no one was hurt as
firemen extinguished the flames.
The third blaze was at Martins
Dairy, Oakdale, where about S.
900 damage was done in living
quarters over a shop. Rockville
and Sandy Spring firemen saved
the exterior of the structure in
which three dairy workmen lived.

After the oath of Office was ad-

Mr.. Johnston said:
''The Government is taking posi-

I'VE must defeat imitation al

Mr.. Johnston added, however
that price-wage controls must

Meanwhile, the administration

the program.
He also said that his agency
has plans for handling the meat
situation, but that he would
rather not disclose them at this

HAIR RAISING TALES
by
Richard
LeWeIlen

O. How did people wash their hair be.
fore they discovered soap!
Mrs. J. D. F., Norfolk, Va
4. Almost every primitive nation has
discovered one Of the varieties OF the
lathering plants. For example. the Amer
lean Indian uses a species of Yucca, now
known as soap bark. These plants pro-
duce a somewbgA cleansing lather. Some
of these plants are actually far superior
TO the average commercial shampoo.
q. Are special rinses like lemon or vine.
gar necessary for the hair?
Mrs. B. L., Salt Lake City, Utah
A. Special rinses are only necessary
where the shampoo is of such nature
that it leaves q thin coat of grease on
the hair. dulling the natural lustre. The
lemon or vinegar cuts this from the hair,
but at the same time has tendency to
remove natural oils from the scalp. so
while it helps the hair, it can injure
the scalp.
Q. Why don't women lose their hair the
way men do?
Mr.. K. N. Baltimore, Nd.
A. First Of all. women do lose their hair.
However. most women do not walk
around showing their bald spots. They
cover them with transformations. The
modern scientific theory is that the
growth of head hair is controlled by
certain female hormones and it is due
to the fact that they have more of these
'hormones that there are fewer bald
women. However. excessive abuse Of
scalp and hair can cause women to be-
come bald.
Q. Is badness hereditary7
Mr.. l.. R., Washington. D. c.
A. Badness is not hereditary. although
the tendency to badness may be. The
theory is that if the men on your
mothers side Of the family were bald,
you have a greater tendency toward
badness yourself. Should this be the
case in your family. we suggest extreme
conscientiousness in caring for hair.
@. Do Permanents iniure the hairf
Mrs. M. L.. Charleston. W. Va.
A. Due to the chemicals, the heat and
the combination of both that are neces-
sary to permanent wave the hair, perms-
nents leave the hair and scalp extremely
dry. This not only reduces the oil avail
able to the hair. but causes the hair
itself to crack, split and break of. Hair
should be thoroughly reconditioned be-
fore the permanent and reconditioned
after the permanent.

METROPOLITAN NETWORK

Q. C.D.L. of Wheeling, W. Va, also
asks. what kind of brush is best?"
A. The best hair brush is one with
moderately stiff bristles. separated into
small groups. preferably natural bris-
tie rather than q chemically manufac-
tured bristle. The natural bristles APP
parently penetrate to- the scalp better
and have no tendency TO tear or break
off hair. strands.
O. What can be done about premature
grayness?
Mrs. M. J., Nashville, Tenn.
A. Scientific experimentation has shown
that premature Rrayness is sometimes
caused bv a deficiency of certain parts
of the Vitamin B Complex. Therefore,
vitamin preparations or foods that are
extremely rich in the B Complex, partic-
ularly in the sodium pantothenate, can
prevent and even correct premature
grayness.
