Imagination lent her charms. Philosophy was standing ready, And keen -eyed Judgment, hand In tWad, With common sense, serene and .steady, And keener grew their search for thrift, And deeper dug they for that treasure. Till sharper grew their subtle wit And still increased their mutual pleasure: They talked of County problems mostly, And discussed the country's war :position, They brooded o'er earth's giant ills, And grieved o'er man's enslaved condition, And with expensive legislation At any moment they would wrestle, And extravagance's Cobol vast They smashed it like a potter's vessel. The Wardell, there, was in the chair, With manner mild end .aspect sterner, A man of independent .mind. The much resorted R. E. Turner; alis was the soul of kindest thought. His was the eye of keenest vision, Mss was the voice of calm decision, Our worthy Clerk was always there, We'd never get along without- him. With manner smooth and talent rare, And nommon sense, there's that about him. A well-informed and honest mm, He'll never strike behind your back, But from the shoulder, straight and clear, The conscientious Roberts, Jack, 00r Treasurer too, the true and tried, With active frame and mind sincere. We always felt more satisfied if we had Harvey Erskine Heels. His voice wassmooth, his words were few, His cast of thought was mitthenmtie, As Treasurer he's an adept .true, With all his methods systematic. Now when Council seemed to he perplexed, And scarce knew what to do at all, 'they'd always get sound leadership From . bold and fearless 'Oeor'ge lotrNall, And when engaged in keen debate His volae it rolled like volleyed thunder But with logic sound, and recent clear, He amazed Che listening crowd - with wander.

".How- can 1 streugtheu my finger- nails And is it possible to taper the fingertips in any way?" To taper the finger -Ups, pinch. them between finger and . thumb of your other hand several times a day. After you've washed your hands, dab some cream into your nails, and gently wipe back the cuticles witb. your towel. Soak nails in oil (almond or olive) once a week" "How can one keep fresh and dainty? I find this a problem even in. winter -time, as I dance a good deal." Too many women overlook this point and are avoided by others. Everybody perspires; it is a natural function of the body. Wash yourself often, using gentle palmolive soap because it cleanses thoroughly and also helps to beautify the skin. For special occasions, dab a little deodor- ant cream under the armpits, "My hair is too greasy. How shall I treat it?" The best way is to treat the scalp with a good spirit tonic. Here is one you can get made up for you: Meth- ylated spirits, lour ounces; salicylic acid, one-eighth ounce; liquor pints. Garb, one-half ounce. Massage this solution into the hair and scalp reg- ularly for a time. My new booklet on Beauty Cara will help you with your beauty prob- lems.
