NEWMAN TELLS
OF PARIS IN WAR
r ?
Paris, the city of many moogs, Is
amlling through her tears today, at
the triumph of victory.
This was the message in a lecture
last night in the auditorium of the
New Masonic Temple by E. M. New
man. who appeared in the first of a
aeries of travel talks.
"Paris is like a beautiful woman
with many moods," said the lecturer,
"Today, in spite of the suffering she
has undergone, she is smiling through
her tears."
Mr. Newman illustrated his lecture
by exhibiting views of the French
capital. These views included pic
tores of the American troops march
ing through Paris, crowds on their
way to work with the Germans
pounding at the city's gates tnirty
miles away early in the war. and
scenes of the devastation wrought by
the German long-distance gun.
Pictures of the Louvre in its for-1
mer splendor, compared with those of
today, showed the change that has
come over Paris. The rare paintings
and treasures had been removed to
places of safety and the public statu
ary wore protecting armour of sand
bags.

Dandruff Surely
Destroys the Hair
? II
?
Girls?if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all j
means get rid of dandruff, for it will]
starve your hair and ruin it if you
don't
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis-j
aolve it, then yyi destroy it entirely. J
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 in gent
ly with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
aiBgle sign and trace of it.
You will- find, too, that all itching
aad digging of the scalp will stop,
aad your hair will look and feel a
hundred times better. Tou can get
liquid arvon at any drug store. It Is
Inexpensive and four ounces Is all you
win need, no matter how much dan
druff you have. This simple rerae>iy
sever fails.

Premier Clemenceau explained to
the Chamber of Deputies that the

problems will develop regarding

nation proposed and another opposed.
The Premier cited President Wil

withdraw American troops from
France as an example of disturbing
false news.
"Of course there are going to be
arguments," declared the Premier.

If Uncle Sam Charged
Forest Visitors a Thin
Dime He'd Be Wealthy
If Uncle Sam charged 10 cents
an hour to visitors to the "Na
tional forests in 1918, a total of
$7,500,000 would have been turned
over to the Federal Treasury.
More than 3,000,000 people spent
on the average of not less than
twenty-five hours in the forests,
so that the number of hours of
recreation was at least 75,000,000.
Figured at 10 cents an hour, the
price of a cheap movie. Uncle Sam
would now have nearly $8,000,000
on the right side of the ledger.
Figures given out today were
compiled by the United States De
partment of Agriculture in a re
port on "Recreation Uses of the
National Forests."

MEXICO WONT SELL
LOWERCALMIA
(Copyright. 1919. by the United Preas)
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal? Jan. 17.?
The Mexican people will never con
sent to sell lower California to the
United States.
Gov. Estaban Cantu, of Baja (lower
California) today telegraphed that
statement to the United Press.
Governor Cantu declared the Mexi
can people resent agitation in the
United States for purchase of the pen
insula much as the American people
would resent- it if the British parlia
ment should discuss purchase of the
State of California.
Mexico relies upon the principle of
self-determination for all nations
"which the American President has i
nobly voiced to safeguard Mexican
territory from foreign occupation,'
Cantu said.
The governor's statement was made
In reply to a telegram sent him by
the United Press informing him that
the people of the United States would
appreciate an expression from him
regarding the agitation in the United
States for the purchase of the penin
sula. Resolutions instructing the
President to begin negotiations for
the purchase of lower California have
been introduced in the Senate by Sen
ator As'hurst, Ariz., and in the House
by Representative Elston, California.
American capital is said to believe
lower California can be developed j
with profit, and Congress has been
told the peninsula Is "the Achilles
heel" of America, in case some Orien
tal power wished to Invade this con
tinent.
CARRANZA TO TAKE ARMS
APPEAL TO PEACE PARLEY
* i
Carranza will lay his arms appeal, 1
recently turned down by the United i
States, before the peace conference, i
it was indicated in Latin-American
diplomatic circles here today.
Delegates of the Mexican govern
ment now at Paris have been author
ized to go the limit in impressing
upon the entente that Mexico City is
repentant for any favoritism shown
the Germans during the war, it is
understood, and emplowered to grant
all possible foreign commissions to
re-establish Carranzas prestige.
Many here see a dictatorship in
Carranza's decision to postpone the
Mexican elections two years. The
move is aimed to block the rising
revolutionary factions. It is held, but
will not succeed unless outside recog- ,
nition Is given.
'If application of the principle of
self determination of people* pre
vents acquisition by the United States
of lower California; that, of course,
ends the matter,!" was the comment
today of Senator Ashurst. Arizona, on
the statement of the governor of low -
er California.
"I stand by self-determination, of
course. If the people of lower Call
fornia do not want to become part
of the United Statea. the United
States, so far as I am concerned,
should not and will not try to maka
them a part. But I still believe that
the governor Is mistaken and 'hat
a vote of the inhabitants would bo
strongly in favor of annexation."
Ashurst is the author of the reso
lution directing President Wilson to
begin negotiations for purchase af
lower California and part of the stata
of Sonora. The resolution Is pending
In the Senate.
