many ministers throughout the country asking them to talk thrift next
Sunday. The importance of the I
Am Planning to Save" program will
be emphasized, In the church also. The letter is in part as follows: . "When real service for the upbuild
ing and betterment of the nation and
community is needed we naturally
look to the churches of the country for
their loyal assistance and co-operation.
During the war they held true to their
faith and justified the confidence that all those in authority placed In them
as being instruments upon which they
could rely for the co-operation and
assistance in all the activities of the
government necessary to the success
ful prosecution of a just and righteous
war.
"Under the strain and menace of war we were obliged to practice thrift
and economy. We did it for the sake
of the country without thought of per
sonal gain or personal Interest. In
this the churches stood solidly behind
the government and rendered untold
assistance. While helping the government meet its war needs we were
learning much that we should know
and practice during the period of re
adjustment and peace-time development following the happy conclusion
of the war."

How to Acquire Hair Beauty
You can enjoy a delightful shampoo with very little effort and for a very trifling cost, if you get from your druggist's a package of cantbrox and dissolve a te"aspoonful In a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so It Is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. Your shampoo is now ready. Just pour a little at a time on the scalp and hair until both are entirely covered by the daintily perfumed preparation that thoroughly dissolves and removes every bit of. dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After rinsing the hair dries quickly with a fluff lness that makes it seem heavier

THE NEW STORY OF AN
They thought it a wonderful thing when they bought it, five years ago. It had big shiny places on it, and it glittered and looked like a million dollars that old hall stove. "Then thew moved." Steam heat sent the old stove to the basement in disgrace; in fact they were even "sorry they'd brought the old thing with them." They'd paid $40 for it when they got it, now it wasn't worth anything to them. So they forgot the old stove until one evening they read the Classified or Want Section in The Palladium, and little Mrs. Busybody saw a great light. She hiked down into the basement next morning, right after breakfast, and what she did to that old "glitterer" was a plenty. Solomon in all his glory wasn't in it with the old stove. Then she ran a want ad, 7 lines, in The Palladium. She sold the stove for a brand new crinkly ten dollar bill. It was forth three times that to the people who bought it. Both made by the bargain and all from a little sensible, plain, truthful want ad. Moral: What have you in your house that ought to be sold and used in somebody else's house instead of letting it go to waste in your house? Also, why not get back some of that good "old money.".
