DELEGATES FROM HAITI ASK FOR NEW AGREEMENT
Wilson Administration Did Nothing To Promote the Country's Welfare
WILL SEEK NEW PACT
Constitution Written by F. D. Roosevelt Proves Very Unsatisfactory
New York City.—Revision or amendment of the American-made national constitution of Haiti as well as the Haitian-American Treaty of 1915, in a manner that will benefit Haiti's peasant mass of nearly two millions in the Haitian people's hope of the Haitian administration, delegates like the republic told newspaper men last week. M. Stenio Vincent, former cabinet minister, and M. Percival Thobey, former attache in Washington, are now in New York, and will later go to the capital to urge reforms, they announced. "Haiti has been under American designation for almost six years, and got totally nothing has been done," M. Percival Thobey, the former attache, written by Franklin D. Roosevelt, ex-Secretary of the United States Navy, has not worked for the development of our country. The treaty of 1915, also framed in Washington, has not given economic or agricultural development as it pledged. Though laws have existed for six years relative to rural schools, no mother has been available for this purported all-merchant farmer our country should have afforded her. He taught the fundamentals of agriculture at least, but he has neither been once asked nor taught.
18 firms with American treaty control finances his coffee, worth but 6 cents a pound and his cotton almost unsalable. In addition there is an export duty of 3 cents a pound on coffee and an equally discouraging export tax on cotton. There is no incentive for the native to pick cotton, coffee or anything else and no commerce for his products if he harvests that.
"Instead of contributing to Haiti's betterment, this constitution and treaty, written by the Wilson administration, have only served to stagnate our country, a condition under a veil of military consensorship, which America, outside the administration, has known nothing about," said Mr. Vincent.
"We are here to plead with the Harding administration for a Haitian constitutional convention, a revision of the 1915 treaty and other reforms which we think are essential for our country's development. Since June 19, 1917, there has been no Haitian House of Representatives or Senate. The Wilson administration civil officials who collect and administer our finances have also suppressed the Chamber of Accounts, which would keep the Haitian people advised as to how its importance is collected or pursued.
"The Haitian people want Congress reassembled, its laws and agreements with the United States revised in order that the country can go ahead.
"We are aware that the great people of the United States cannot be held responsible for the ferocious coalition of a few politicians and of certain financial interests, to whose personal profit the conquest of Haiti has been perpetrated," said the delegate. "And we come in full confidence to make an appeal to its high conscience and its traditional love for right, justice and humanity."
M. Vincent declared that he referred to the National City Bank of New York in his reference to the "financial interests." He said that he would consider it a mistake for the United States suddenly to withdraw United States marines from the republic without giving the country a chance to reregize its own policing organizations.
He spoke of the esteem which all Haitians now hold for Lieutenant Colonel Fred M. Wise, U. S. M. who, with the rank of general, commands the Gendarmerie d'Haiti, the native soldier organization generally officered by marines. Wise's policy of tact and co-operation, he said, was a new departure, as compared with the apparent policies of both marine and civil authorities in Haiti during the last five years.
DEMONSTRATES THAT
HE IS GOOD BUSINESS MAN
Indianapolis, March 16.—Mr. Hays Wilson, of this city, figured the walls of the city hall needed cleaning. So he went before the board of public works and told them the interior of the hall was "downright dirty." But the board looked at the place from a viewpoint of economy and told him he was wrong. Just to prove him right, Hays cleaned a small portion of it and the spot shined like a pewter dollar in a mud hole. He got the contract.

Birmingham, Aln.—Federal authorities here received a report from the Rev. R. N. Hall, editor and publisher of the Baptist Leader, official organ of the Alabama Negro Baptists Convention, of a visit to his office of nine men who warned him to cease publication of all articles referring to the Ku Klux Klan.
The man who visited his office, Rev. Hall reported, told him that a series of articles appearing in the Leader, in which the Ku Klux Klan was mentioned, were objectionable.
The Leader is published under the direction of the convention publication board.
Hall told the authorities he asked the men their names, and sought to learn whom they were representing, but they were silent, he said, except to issue the warning.

SMALL REPUBLIC MANY INDUC AMERICAN MO.
Washington, D. C.—(Special)—With the Walt Disney Presents Charles Dunbar, Braddle, King, and Liberals comes the talk of the possibilities of that far-off country. The mission headed by President King, is now here in conference with the State Department officials in regard to refinancing the national debt of the republic.
Many questions of great importance are to come up for settlement, some of which will have great bearing on the future progress of the country.
Involved among the many is the question of the ultimate disposal of an important cable system, the former German cables running from Emden to Monrovia and from Monrovia to Permambue, in Brazil. There is a possibility that through Liberia that cable may pass under the control of the United States or out of use. There is also a German wire station. In the economic race for the markets of the world those possessions might prove valuable.
The question of the settlement of the $5,00,000 loan to Liberia, which has been advanced to the republic by the United States, but upon which only some $26,000 has been drawn, leaving practically the entire amount in the Treasury in Washington, is only one of the factors engaging the attention of the Liberian mission.
If this is not continued Liberia will be thrown below Great Britain and France. There is reason to believe that before the credit is refused the whole question will be most carefully inquired into.
The settlement of Liberian affairs upon an entirely new and more satisfactory basis was made possible by the treaty of Versailles. The failure of the United States to ratify that treaty which has been ratified by Liberia has necessitated the opening of direct relations between Liberia and this government, and it is for this purpose that the King mission has come to Washington. Some way to reach an agreement outside the treaty probably will be found.
In 1912 an international receivership was established over Liberia by the United States, Great Britain, France and Germany, the total indebtedness of the tiny republic at that time being $1,700,000. The total customs taxes assigned to the liquidation of the debt.
Up to the time of the outbreak of the war Germany was quietly gaining a position of commercial ascendancy in Liberia, which is rich in raw materials. The peace treaty caused Germany to relinquish all rights to participation in the Liberian customs receivership and prohibited her from participating in any future financial that might be extended to Liberia. This the final step taken to effectually stemming out of the west const of Africa.
Since the armistice negotiations have been in progress between Liberia, the United States, Great Britain and France looking to the withdrawal of the latter two countries from the Liberian receivership and the substitution therefore of a unified American receivership. It had been the intent that the United States should form this receivership, acting entirely alone. Great Britain and France have now formally temporarily withdrawn from Liberia, but beijing is in those receiverships. H. F. Worley is the American financial adviser of Monrovia. Whether he is to retain that position under the present administration remains to be determined, and doubtless will be contingent in part upon the new policy of this government.

BLIC OFFERS EMENTS FOR NEY AND MEN
Liberia amounted to $100,000 a year, but his desire to maintain the war caused them to trail off from the BIS; they amounted to only $147,000; a sum insufficient to meet the obligations under the international receivership.
The $5,000,000 credit advanced to Liberia by the United States just prior to the expiration of peace was to enable Liberia to acquire her obligations, liquidate her arrears, and with the first money received to pay the lapsed interest on her foreign loans and restore her credit.
Liberia also had a program of internal development, including the establishment of schools, improvement of public health, building of roads and various other things. A corps of experts was organized in the United States. Some of them went to Liberia, where a few remain. Others have returned.
Liberia is, in a peculiar sense, a ward of America, and its government, modeled upon our own, is anxious today for closer relationships with the parent country. There are excellent opportunities in Liberia for the establishment of sugar mills, sawmills, brickyards, soap factories etc. There are excellent markets in Liberia, American manufactured goods, the Liberian taste being very diversified and the country needing now everything from brass kettles to silk stockings and tombstones. The language of the country is English.
Before the war four lines of steamers, English, French, Spanish and German, ran between Monrovia and Liverpool, Marseille, Barcelona and Hamburg. There are no railroads in Liberia. Contemplated harbor improvements will make Monrovia—named after an American President—the best harbor on the west African coast with the exception of Dagar, in French Suegea.
Liberia declared war on Germany August 4, 1917, and furnished 3,000 men to the allied cause in France. She followed America into the war, and signed the peace treaty as one of the allied and associated belligerent powers.
Germany imprisoned a large number of natives of Liberia in her west African colonies, and when they refused to fight against the French, and the Germans were themselves driven out of the Camerons, 300 of these natives were barbarously murdered, some being burned alive, to prevent them from falling into the hands of the enemy. Liberia was a long way from the seat of the war in France, and of the mormong in April, 1918, the inhabitants of Monrovia were awakened to find a German submarine cruiser in the harbor.
The German captain sent an ultimatum ashore, saying that Monrovia was now under German guns, that Liberia had been deserted by her allies, and that unless the French cable was instantly dismantled on the initiative of the Liberian government, the city would be bombarded. The government was given until 4 o'clock in the afternoon to comply.
! The cabinet was assembled, and with them met the principal citizens. All day they debated the predicament for Monrovia was absolutely undefended. Finally the decision was reached, the women and children were sent out of the city and at 3:30 the German captain was informed that Liberia was one of the allies, and that she could not desert the allied cause. The demand was refused and the submarine began the defenseless city. About 20 rounds had been fired when an armed British manhunt vessel, which had heard the firing,
off the harbor, and the submarine submerged and went out to attack it. There was a spectacular light in that far-off corner of the world which was a draw, the submarine finally being driven off and the trumpet clamper limping into Cierra Leone with a hole under the water line. It was subsequently ascertained that the submarine never got back to Germany.
If the American credit is denied to Liberia that country will revert to the financial conditions which existed prior to the war, and presumably the French and British receivership will be re-established, and those governments will become the administrators of Liberian affairs, with the United States, instead of the United States acting alone, as has been contemplated.
Thus the question involved in the mission of President King is far more complicated and important to this government than the emphasis which has been laid on the $5,000,000 loan would indicate.

Only Company Where Our "Hello Girls" Can Operate
Probably the only telephone company in the world today doing business and owned entirely by colored business men, is found in Virginia.
The Elk Run Telephone Company was organized and incorporated in Virginia, during March of 1911. The company was capitalized at $5,000.
During the first year it built and operated 11 miles of service. Today the company owns and operates over 40 miles of wire and connection, and serves over 90 subscribers.
The whole enterprise is owned, managed and operated by colored people from the stockholders to the switchboard operators.
The officers are T. C. Tyler, president; E. A. Blackwell, secretary and general manager.
It is reported that the service offered by the company is much more pleasing than that offered by the other companies.

Alleged Attack On a Young Girl

American Legion Posts Declare

Order
Springfield, Ohio, March 14. (Special)—Racial trouble, which at one time seemed as if it would assume a serious nature, stirred this quiet Ohio town last week as nothing ever has before.
The trouble started over an alleged attack on an 11-year-old white girl, who was lured into an old building. While there were no witnesses to the alleged crime, the blame was instantly placed on a Colored man.
Aided by the white press, the news spread quickly and the feeling became more bitter as the hours passed. News that a suspect had been captured caused a large mob to form and march to the Clark county jail. Large crowds began to congregate on the streets, and special officers were sworn in. So great was the excitement until City Manager Parsons decided to call upon the Governor for troops.
Many minor clashes occurred on the streets. Serious fighting took place in South Yellow Springs street, in which many shots were fired and several whites were wounded, including a policeman, who was shot three times. A large number of race people live in this street, and many began to swarm into the street. They were apparently well armed and did not attempt, as was reported in many of the interviews. Martial law was imposed in General Florence and General Baldwin Haubrich were placed in charge. Digital companies of National Guard troops were on duty. Under the command of Colonel Haubrich were Companies B, of Columbus; C, of London; I, of Columbus; M, of Marysville; Supply and Headquarters Companies, of Columbus, and the two separate machine gun companies of Springfield.
Local posts of the American Legion, including the Colored post, adopted resolutions declaring for law and order and "for obtaining justice through the orderly prosecution of crime," and condemning mob violence.
Resolutions declare: "We, the members of the American Legion, representing both white and colored posts, will do everything in our power to assist the authorities in the apprehension of the guilty and urge that the people of Springfield co-operate with the authorities in maintaining order."
Sunday was a quiet day, and no further trouble is feared by the authorities.

OLIVE BRANCH NOTES
The Olive Branch Sunday school is planning to have an elaborate Easter entertainment. Misses Matilda Ballard, I. E. Hoard and Gertrude Edwards, the committee, are working very hard to that end.
Miss Martha Jones fell from a wagon on last Saturday evening and injured herself rather seriously.

At 11:30 o'clock, the home mission circle had charge. Mrs. Matilda Ballard, president, put before her audience the great test the have before them; that is, helping to finance Smallwood-Corey ($50.00).

A MEMORIAL TO MOTHER--
MARY V. JACKSON
This month of March, one year ago, Our mother left us lone.
'Twas hard to miss her smiles, so to hear her farewell tone.
Our slightest care, she always sought, Nor once our wish refused;
But always to us comfort brought, The we her love abused.
A mother, dear, a mother, sweet, A mother, true and kind;
That mother we shall truly meet When death our lives shall bind.
Far, far in glory she awaits, With still that mother's care;
Ye hosts of heaven, fling wide the
Go, tell her, we'll be there.
We'll always keep her gentle smiles. Which ear to us brought cheer. And the, this sinful world beguiles. We'll to her voice, give ear.

A CORRECTION
In last week's issue of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE the following item appeared:
"Mr. J. H. Corprew, Miss Poole and Mrs. Blind attended the inauguration in Washington, D. C., last week. We wish to state that the publication was erroneous, in so far as Mr. Corprew was concerned, as he did not go to Washington at all. This paper endeavors and desires to publish only properly authenticated news, and invites such from persons who are willing to sign their names and addresses to what they write as an evidence of its authority. But despite this, Mr. Corprew such as referred to occasionally escapes detection and intrudes itself upon our columns, much to our regret.—The Editors.

THE PARAMOUNT QUESTION IS ONE OF LAW AND ORDER
It is a sign of race awakening to high and better things when our newspapers and political thinkers have come to the conclusion that the paramount question that confronts the race, upon the opening of a Republican Administration after eight years of Democratic Administration, is not one of getting as many official positions as possible, but one of getting some Federal legislation that will safeguard the lives and property of the Afro-American people. It has been the other way since 1876. The scramble for a few Federal offices has been the predominant objective of our politicians, the voice of our editors for a larger measure of protection of our lives and property being submerged in the scramble for the offices.
We understand that headquarters have been established in Washington, with Mr. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia, Mr. Perry W. Howard of Mississippi Mr. Robert R. Church of Tennessee, and others, in charge to fight for some legislation by Congress that will safeguard our lives and property. The question of getting official appointments, in the disorganized condition of the race in almost all of the States is largely a personal one, and should be subordinated to the more vital question of securing the Congressional remedial legislation we need.

their jobs, will be no more tolerated now than was chattel slavery then. It has no more right to exist and is just as repugnant under our democratic form of government as it would be under a government of monarchial bureaucratic or under any other form of government."
Only a few years ago we were fighting peonage, or involuntary servitude, in the Southern States, and we had a time of it to crush the thing, 'and even now, as in the recent case in Georgia, there are instances of the existence of the system. The killing of the Southern convict camp system, opposition to which was started, we believe, by George W. Cable, the famous Southern novelist, some thirty years ago, put an end to organized peonage in the South, although the migration movement brought out the fact that many States have laws which prevent Negro laborers from controlling their own actions and constraining them to remain in stated districts.
The contention of labor, in the matter of strikes, is related to the practices which used to prevail in the South, and crop out now on occasion, but the contention of labor organizations is broader in scope and we should all study it closely as it develops in their opposition to injunction proceedings to prevent them from striking to enforce their demands of labor.

LITERARY CONTEST
As a voter the Afro-American in politics in Virginia is not a quantity to be counted seriously. As an issue, however, his utility increases, rather than diminishes. Recent local press reports quote Mr. Hutchins, the chairman of the Democratic party in Norfolk County, as making a speech on the growing menace of the Afro-American vote to the white civilization of the South. Among other things, Mr. Hutchins told his audience, according to the press reports, that in the last general election a colored
man ran for governor of Maryland and that there were eight or nine negroes in the Ohio legislature. While it would not make much difference whether the record is correct or not, so far as the county chairman's purposes are concerned, it might be interesting to him if he knew that an Afro-American ran for the office of United States senator instead of that of governor in Maryland, and came within 200,000 votes of winning; that only one Afro-American was elected to the Ohio legislature. The colored candidate for governor in the last general election made the race in Arkansas, much further south than Maryland. If he had gotten 250,000 more votes than he did receive he would have been elected. If Mr. Hutchins did not tell his audience about the Afro-American that ran for the office of United States Senator in Virginia in the last general election he missed a great opportunity, and one that occupied much of his speaking this last fall. This candidate came within about 156,000 votes of being counted.
It appears from the record that white civilization has a safe lead, which it is sure to keep as long as it has such men as Mr. Hutchins to keep the Afro-American in politics—as an issue.
THE BUSINESS BAROMETER
By ROBT. II. CROSS
Manager Attacks Theatre
Our patronage has been improving so satisfactorily during the past two weeks that I am inclined to have a decidedly opinistic view of business. That more people are seeking recreation and diversion is certainly a good sign, and indicates a return to normal life. It is interesting to make a study, scientific and analytical, of the kind of manoeuvres and diversional attractions our people believe that the Attacks management has struck the happy medium. There is a decided improvement.
Living commodities are moving faster, indicating that more people are finding profitable employment. General trade activities in our establishment show a decided improvement over several weeks ago. The recent depression, however, has taught many people the lesson of season. There is less tendency toward improvement in all things. I think that money for home-building and other such improvements will be more available than it is now before summer.

We are getting used to the readjustment that was inevitable after the war. This altogether national process evolved a lot of calamity howlers, including people who overexpanded, but the stage of readjustment have been so timed and so successfully handled by the financial interests that there have been a remarkably few failures. Conditions generally are improving and I think we have passed that threshold our first period of depression. There are better times ahead.

ALONZO DOZIER,
Grocoryman
The thought expressed at the beginning of this article is applicable to A. Dozier. Starting as a boy, Mr. Dozier performed all the work required in a grocery store. He worked under several employers, but in the same store. Hence he obtained varied experience in the grocery business. Finally his employee wanted to sell some business in another section of the city. Mr. Dozier an offer, which was accepted, and the sign was changed to "A. Dozier," which has been a familiar sign in the 1100 block on Church street for the past eleven years. He began business with a $1,500 stock of groceries and has steadily built up his business until today he is carrying about $8,000.00. He has never had a partner in his business, he has been the sole owner and proprietor. He says, "Business has been dull since the days, but there is a perceptible picking up which he feels will be permanent."

Caroline County, Va.
(J. S. Collins) Because of the demand upon me for my time in shaping and initiating a definite building program for the Virginia Home Supply Corporation, in addition to the performance of other duties essential to the success of the Corporation, I have had very little time in my compile news for publication. Even now, I am for time, yet I feel that the public should know something of the present status of this very important movement.
According to an announcement which was made in a circular letter to the V. H. S. C. Stockholders, several days ago, Mr. F. D. Johnston, of Brooke, Va., entered upon his duties as assistant manager of the Corporation, stationed at Bowling Green, on the day of the event. Since which time he has maintained an annual record. I feel very fortunate to be able to obtain the services of such an able and hard-working assistant. Plans and specifications for the proposed brick store building, as prepared by Prof. C. T. Russell, of Virginia Union University, were submitted to the Board of Directors, and unanimously approved, at their regular monthly meeting, on last Friday night.

In sad but loving remembrance of my dear mother, Mrs. Matilda Parker, who entered heaven March 17, 1919:

Made the home so sad and lonely,
Left my heart completely torn.

Many Are Improving Their Home Life
Over Six Hundred Counties Are Organized to Promote Friendly Race Relations—Negroes Need Medical Schools and Universities—Aid from the Press—Atlanta Makes Progress
Hampton, Va.-Inter-racial cooperation is growing steadily throughout the Nation. In the South the inter-racial co-operation movement is receiving the hearty support of the church and the press, as well as the educational, business, and community leaders. The Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation is the outgrowth of a conference which was held in Atlanta early in 1919 to consider some of the grave problems of race relationships that had been brought to the surface on account of the World War. It is now doing organized work in all the Southern States.
The Commission is composed of white and colored men, including Dr. R. R. Moton, Dr. John Hope, Bishop R. E. Jones, Bishop G. W. Clinton, Dr. Isaac Fisher, and Dr. John M. Gandy. The officers include John J. Eagan, chairman; R. H. King, director, and Will W. Alexander, associate director. The headquarters of the Commission are in the Candler Building, Atlanta, Ga.
The publications of the Commission include "Law and Order in Tennessee," by Edwin Mims; "An Appeal to the Christian People of the South," adapted by the recent Church Leaders' Conference at, Blue Ridge, N. C.; "The Nashville Plan of Inter-racial Work"; and "A Handbook for Interracial Committees," compiled by Edwin Mims. These publications do not attempt to lay down any hard and fast plan of action for any State or community or to generalize and dogmatize.
These publications, written in a Christian spirit, express the better public opinion of the South. They report concrete achievements of Southern communities and commonwealths.

Prof. Edwin Mims, of Vanderbilt University, is one of a number of Southern white leaders who has ably presented "the facts of religious, economic, and social' progress which have been the results of co-operative effort and of real constructive statesmanship.
The Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation has wisely and quietly kept at work, organizing in some six hundred counties inter-racial committees that carry the burden of adjusting race relations before the breaking-point is reached and of helping to develop movements which will bring white and, colored people into friendly relation. "These inter-racial committees are functioning in specific matters, such as justice before the law, adequate educational facilities, justice in public conveyances, economic, justice, and the handling of any acute situation which arises between the races."
BETTER HEALTH AND BETTER
EDUCATION
The Inter-racial Committee of the War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. has just issued a study of the various agencies that are working in the field of social welfare for increased interracial co-operation. The study, after referring to the splendid work of some of the educational foundations, expresses the hope that aid will be given for the establishment of "at least three medical and nurse-training schools for Negroes which would compare favorably with any such institution in America for whites" and for the establishment of "a series of five or six universities running from Austin, Tex., to New Orleans, Atlanta, Nashville, Richmond, with perhaps one in Arkansas, one in Missouri, and one in the Carolinas."

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
In the social and economic field thirty-six agencies—ten predominately white and twenty-six predominately Negro—are working on interracial co-operation programs.
Twenty-three national or semi-national organizations are co-operating with Negroes of the South in the development of religious life. "Here, as in no other field, there is lack of unified statesmanship." Chambers of commerce, civic clubs, and local city organizations have been taking a lively interest in promoting interracial co-operation. Publicity has already been given to work in Nashville, Memphis, Atlanta, New Orleans, Lousville, Charlotte, Fort Worth, Chicago, and Cincinnati.

The Inter-
The need of bringing hospital facilities within the reach of the 12,000,000 American Negroes should be apparent to legislators and others who are responsible for our national health efficiency.
In Nashville, for example, "there has been a notable improvement in the handling of news relating to the Negro. The activities of the race are given; more and more prominence. One of the papers carries at least two columns every Sunday morning, summarizing the various activities among colored people. The reporters and editors have been made aware of the complaints sometimes registered as to their magnifying the crimes of Negroes and minimizing their better achievements."
THE ATLANTA PLAN
The Y. M. C. A. study, in referring to the Atlanta Plan, says: "The general committees hold weekly meetings separately and joint meetings once a month. Any matters requiring immediate action are handled by joint meetings of the appropriate subcommittees. By means of these committees rumors of race clashes have been investigated and quieted. A junior high school has been secured for Negro pupils. A tract of land has been bought and presented to the city, so be developed into a park for Negroes. The chief of police is co-operating heartily in bettering conditions in certain sections. The officials of Terminal Station are making every effort to provide more comfortable traveling facilities for Negroes. The Board of Education has materially increased the salaries of all colored teachers."
A DEVELOPING PROGRAM
The Commission has attempted to
study what Negroes want; to agree on a program behind which it could rally white Christians; and to make its program effective. It has attempted to lead men and women to the light and to capitalize the interest of a growing number of thoughtful white men and women, many of whom are trained, in securing justice for all Negroes. The Commission has recognized the fact that Negroes wish to develop along lines enjoyed by their white brothers. Its program has been a developing one.
The program of the Commission on Inter-racial Co-operation, at its present stage, includes the following items: The prevention of lynching and the denial of legal justice to the Negro; the securing of adequate educational facilities; the development of sanitary housing and living conditions; the securing of recreational facilities; the establishment of economic justice and equality of traveling facilities; and the creation of a sound public opinion on race relations.
Inter-racial co-operation will continue to grow steadily and yield rich returns in racial good-will and in economic production just in proportion as white and colored leaders are willing and able to face the facts of life—some of which are most distressing—with workable plans for group action and in a spirit of Christian tolerance. No one group can solve the intricate problem of race relations, but every group has a vital contribution to make to the ultimate solution of the problem. Great progress has been made and a new day is breaking for all American citizens.

After rinsing, the hair dries quickly with a fluffiness that makes it seem like it has been it, and takes on a rich luster and its texture that makes arranging it a pleasure.

Today's Beauty Hint
It is not necessary to shampoo your hair so frequently if it is entirely and properly cleansed each time by the use of a really good shampoo. The easiest to use and quickest drying shampoo that we can recommend to our readers is one that brings out all the natural beauty of the hair and may be enjoyed at very little expense, by dissolving a teapoonful of canthrox, which can be obtained from any druggist, in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so it is easy to apply it to the hair instead of just to the top of the scalp. This, when rubbed into the scalp and into the hair, chemically dissolves all impurities. It is very soothing and cooling in its action, as well as beneficial to both scalp and hair. After rinsing out the lather so created, you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from dandruff, while the hair dries quickly and evenly, developing a bright luster and a soft fluffiness that makes it seem very heavy.
