SCHOOL OFFICERS
RESIGN TO TAKE
OTHER POSITIONS
Resignations of State House
Employes Come Thick and
Fast Following Offers of
Outside Places.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
Lincoln, April 14. (Special.) The
office of the state superintendent of
public instruction appears to be in
"a'r way to depopulation, so many of
the assistants having resigned to go
"up higher."
The latest to accept other places is
Deputy State Superintendent John H.
Woodard, who will resign in August
to accept the principalship of the
county high school at Miles, Mont.,
at a salary of $2,750 the first year and
?3,000 thereafter. Thus again 'does
the state lose an educator because of
its lack of appreciation of ability by
paying salar.es which will keep good
lien in its service.
Dixon Also Goes.
Another man who leaves the state i
superintendent's department is As
sistant Supetintendent A. H. Dixon,
wh? goes to the superintendency of
the city schools of University Place
at a much higher salary' than he was
receiving from the state.
A short time ago Miss Nell Bag
nell, one of the most efficient stenog
raphers at the state house, resigned
her position in "the office to accept a
civil service appointment and is now
in Washington.
It is rumored that Miss Alice
Florer, anothtr assistant in the office
may become a candidate for nomina
tion for state superintendent. In
case State Superintendent Clfmmons
will also be candidate for re-nomina-tion,
of course, out of courtesy. Miss
Florer may resign, but nothing defi
nite is known. It is pretty well under
stood that Miss Florer's friends are
quietly pushing her for the place, but
just how far the pushing lias gone
is not known, although it is said an
effort is being made to encorage Mr.
Clemmons not to again become a
candidate, because of his health.
Woman and Office.
This brings i . the controversary
again whether a woman can hold a
state office. Some are of the opinion
that just as long as women cannot
vote for a constitutional office they
are prohibited from holding a Consti
tutional office. The constitution does
not make itself clear in the matter,
specifying though that in the case
of governor and lieutenant governor,
the occupant must have been an
elector of the stale for the past two
years.. Others claim that as long as
the constitution does not especially
prohibit a woman from holding, they
are eligible to. all offices below the
two named above.

$98,000; Other Parishes
Make Good Progress.

Cecilia's parish, in which the cathe
dral is located, totaled over '$98,000,
announcement was made Sunday.

mittee of women, who have made this
drive so successful. He urged re
doubled efforts during the coming
week.
"In my short visit, I found every
where the people alive to the serious
situation which confronts us. We are
in the midst of a terrible war, the
worst that has ever befallen the
world. It is up to us to assist in the
prosecution of the great work which
the president has undertaken.
"Through an oversight, no great
stress was laid on the coming drive
in this church last Sunday, but the re
sponse by the people was splendid.
There are still some who have not
done their duty, and we hope that by
Thursday all will be represented. We
must get busv. It is the biggest
proposition this country has ever
faced. Patriotism is love of countor,
and the best of love is the willingness
to sacrifice for the thing we love.
Therefore, I sk this morning that all
people, young and old, buy bonds,
that the parish of St. Cecilia may be
awarded its full credit for a success
ful drive."
Other parishes of the city reported

ures could not be obtained, but it

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless
If you want plenty of thick, beauti
ful, glossy, silky hair do by all
means get nd.,f dandruff, for it will
starve your hair andruin it if you
don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. Thconly sure
way. to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces
of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it tn gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most, if not aV, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop,
and your hair will look and feel a
hundred times better. You can get
liquid arvon at any drug store. It is
inexpensive and four oun is all
you will need, no matter lr,w much
dandruff you have. This simple rem
edy never fails. '

The Saving of By-Products
Was the Beginning of
Large Products
Before the manufacturer saved the by-products
of the material used there was a great waste,
adding to the cost of manufacture.
Not many years ago, the hoofs, the hair, the,
bones of beef were thrown away. Today they
are all used, reducing the cost and adding to the
profits.
Advertisers should apply this same rule in buy
ing advertising space; Why buy lost circulation?
Buy circulation where and when you need it.
Newspapers offer you this chance.
You can advertise in a territory according to its
needs-no lost efforts, no lost circulation, for
you can buy the number of newspapers you
consider necessary to cover that particular ter
ritory which you wish to cultiyat-the only class
of media without fear of duplication.
Advertising judiciously done does not add to th'e
cost of the commodity but enables you to reduce
the selling cost, thereby bringing you a lower
manufacturing cost.
