Wattles, state food administrator, was the speaker at the banquet in the evening. Mr. Wattles was introduced by Mr. Weil of Lincoln as the man who had been working for no compensation. Mr. Wattles desired to correct the re mark of the toastmaster by saying that it was not true. "While a man may work along the line I have been working for no monetary compensa tion," said Mr. Watties, "the fact that one has done his best in a work of this kind, is the greatest compensation any man can receive." Ennobled by Sacrifices. The sacrifice that the people are making in this war is making them better people, according to Mr. Wat tles, and will make them better citi zens. "When the appeal was put out to send in flour that it might be sent across to our soldiers, the people from all over the state responded nobly and one sack, two sacks and more were received from a large number of people who desired to do their part.

"The man who wears the uniform of an American soldier is the son of a patriot," he said, "for the fathers of thee men in so many instances have made great sacrifices, especially on the farms, that their boys could go out to help win the war for democ racy. But the boys who come home will be our heroes, and will control the destinies of this country. Curb on Aliens. "There used to be a time when a man could maligne our officers and we would elect him to congress, but that time has passed. The boys who come back are not going to stand for that, kind of business, and will not see this 1 country traduced after fighting the battles of the world in so noble a cause. "Men have come to this country and have been admitted to citizenship be fore they really knew what it meant, while your boys had to wait 21 years before they could have a part in the making of our laws. This will all be changed when this war is over. We are going to live in a new world. There are new ideas spreading and the time is coining when the man who works with his hands or his brains is going to have a chance over the man who simply has the money. There is something wrong in the system which allows one man to have millions while another starves for want of food." Mr Wattlps said that more monev had been sent out of Nebraska for! i war purposes in the last year then i had been on deposit in all the banks I of the state 10 years ago. rle closed his address by asking that every man be loyal to the cause and give his every effort to assisting in keeping the boys across the water well sup plied with the things they need.

Alkali Makes Soap Bad For Washing Hair Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thine to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that isrequired. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han dle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dan druff. Advertisement.
