who hear this address will be given
a broader view of the relationship
which local activities bear to na
tional betterment. In it he shows
that the several thousand chambers
ot commerce throughout the coun
try each striving to build a strong
er and better community, are in
the nation-wide spread of that ef
fort, helping build a stronger and
better nation.
“The Organization Sei-vice Bu
of which Mr. Brown is the
Wd, was established by the Cham
ber of Commerce of the United
States in 1915 for direct service
to chambers of commerce and trade
associations which make up in con
tinuous research work, th e objec
tive being to determine the best
forms of organization structure,
technique and methods of proced
ure in organization activities. It
distributes this information through
letters in answer to inquiry,
through printed pamphlets and a
semi-monthly open letter to cham
ber of commerce secretaries. For
years chambers of commerce
throughout the United States have
been looking to Mr. Brown's bu
reau in the national chamber for
infoi mation that will help them
strengthen their organizations and
make then: more efficient.
“There is probably not a secre
tary of a chamber of commerce in
the United States who is not familar
with the work Mr. Brown has been
( oing for the past nine years, and
over COO of them have called him
personally into conference on their
problems or have invited him to
address their memberships. He is
frequently engaged for* months
ahead and calls are made upon him
from every state in th e union.”
. Secretary Everett
stated that it is the desire of the
directors of th e Chamber of Com

SENATEHOMS
fflOP BONUS
Minority Goes On Record As
Favoring Cash Payment to
Ex-Service Men
WASHINGTON, April 21.—Sen
ate democrats went on record late
Saturday for a cash and insurance
bonus bill in minority report of
the finance committee made public
by Senatox- Walsh, Massachusetts,
although it was indicated on the
floox- the party would support the
pending straight insurance bill “to
■ assure enactment into law of a
bonus measure.”
The report declared such a plan
would cost the government about
$1,000,000,00 less than the pend
ing bill'but if it failed to* com
mand support the minority mem
bers would vote for th e committee
measure. Six of the seven demo
crats of the committee signed it,
Senator King, Utah, refusing be
cause he is opposed to any bonus
bill.
Republican leaders today consid
ered the way clear for passage early
in the week of straight insurance
bill. Their assurance was based on
statements of Senator Robinson,
Arkansas democratic leader, that the
democrats feared republicans would
vote to sustain a veto by President
Coolidge of a cash and insurance !
measure. Senator Watson, republi
can, Indiana, and other republican
leaders, said they would vote to
over-ride a presidential veto of the
straight insurance plan.

AN OLD RECIPE 1
TO DARKEN HAIR
’Sage Tea and Sulphur Turn*
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy
Almost everyone knows this Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
lustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to
get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any drug
store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur
Compound.” You will get a large bot
tle of this old-time recipe improved by
the addition of other ingredients, at
very little cost. Everybody uses this
preparation now, because no one can
possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it so naturally and even
ly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears, and
after another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and
glossy and you look years younger.
