CHILD BALD WITH
HON HEAD
Scalp Mass of Eruptions. Disfig
ured Badly. Healed by Cuticura.
"My little girl had ecrema which
began from scratching her head and it
began with a small red blister which in
§ flamed her whole head.
It kept getting red and
tender and she was cross
and irritable and could
not sleep. Her hair all
fell out and at last she
was perfectly bald, and
her scalp became a mass
of sore eruptions which
disfigured her badly,
"I began to use Cuticura Soap and
Ointment, and after using three cakes
of Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Oint
ment she was healed." (Signed) Mrs.
Lula Wharton, 14 Crawford St, Pitts
burgh, Pa., January 14, 1916.
It mothers only be careful in
selecting the first soap used on baby.
Siost soaps, even if pure, are too harsh
or too strungly medicated for tender
skins. Cuticura, on the contrary, is so
pure, gentle and sweet that it may be
used from the hour of birth, and as for
the Ointment, it is the most delicate of
super-creamy emollients. You can have
sample each for the asking.

SATURDAY EVENING,
MAXWELL ADOPTS
NEW RELIEF PLAN
Will Care For Families of Em
ployes Who Enter Military
Duties
In accordance with a statement is
sued last week by Walter E. Flanders,
president and general manager of the
Maxwell Motor Company, Inc., of De
troit, that institution has adopted a
broad plan of action relative to the
relief of the families of its employes
who have or may enlist for mllltary
servica in connection with the present
dispute with Mexioo.
Mr. Flanders' announcement is as
follows: "The Maxwell Motor Com
pany, Inc., will hold positions open
for any of Its employes who have
been in its employ more than four
months, who enlist or have enlisted
for the Mexican trouble. While en
gaged In the Mexican trouble, the
company will continue the pay of such
employes who have others dependent
upon them at the rate of one-half
their present salaries, for one year
from this date (June 30), unless the
government shall have made adequate
provision sooner."
A number of Maxwell employes had
enlisted before Mr. Flanders made the
announcement of the company's in
tentions and judging from the enthus
iasm with which the announcement
was received at the various Maxwell
factories when the notice was posted,
it will have the effect of stimulating
recruiting from the great army of
Maxwell workers.
! More than a score of factory work
i ers had enlisted from the Detroit plant
i of the company by July l and many
others announced their intention of
going as soon as they learned that
. their families would not suffer during
their absence. In the company's
plants at Newcastle. Ind., and Dayton,
| Ohio, a sinUlar situation obtained.
The Maxwell announcement Is In
direct line with the company's policy
l of rendering all possible aid to the
United States government in the Mex
-1 can crisis.
1 All during the border trouble. Max
well cars have rendered efficient ser
; vice and because of its ability to take
the rough roads in the southern coun
try, It has been a favorite with the sol
diers. Maxwell cars have penetrated
far into the Mexican country and the
famous nonstop car gave a good ac
' count of itself when it was comman
deered by United States troops patrol
ling the Arizona border.
General Pershing has benefited by
the service of more than 100 Texan
owners of Maxwell cars, who volun
teered themselves and their cars when
the punitive expedition headed across
the border.
Over forty motor reservists, all driv
ing their own Maxwell cars, both men
and vehicles being equipped complete
ly for service, have volunteered from
the State of California and are ready
to move on order from General
. Pershing.
Government Trucks Are
Bearing the Army Burden
Peculiar Interest attaches to war
news because of recent reports to the
effect that the railroads have been un
able to cope with the situation. Thus
| the problems of transportation of sup
} piles devolved entirely upon motor
trucks, proving that trucks are becom- I
! ing a greater factor than ever in mod
ern transportation. It is easy to con
i ceive of the troubles that would have
been encountered had horse-drawn ve- j
hides been called upon when the rail- !
roads proved inadequate. The day of
the truck is here, and this is ample i
I evidence in proof of this statement.
Upon these trucks falls the arduous
labor of transporting munitions and
provisions for the American troops.
Of necessity they must be at the right
place at the right time. They must j
keep pace with the advancing columns
in order that Uncle Sam's "soldier
boys" may be well fed. The going will
be difficult, for ruts and deep sand
; will be met continually. It will con
stitute a real test for trucks as well as
I tires.
Firestone tires are on a great share
lof this great, fleet of trucks and it is
expected that they will perform as well
as they did a few weeks ago. when on
a Saurer truck they were driven up
to the top of Mt. Wilson carrying a
13H ton steel girder for the Mt. Wil
son observatory.
It Is Interesting to note that in con
! neotion the aero-squadron leading the
way is on Harley-Davidson motor
: cycles, which are also equipped with
Firestone tires. Firestone tires are
thus both leading the way and "bring- '
ing up the rear" in this expedition of
American troops into the land of the j
j mesquite and cacti.

Motorcar Experts in
Demand For Army Service
_ Detroit is being hard hit by the
United States government's call to
arms to handle the Mexican situation.
With more than 1,000 of her young
men in the mobilization camp of the
state National Guard, the city has
been called on to recruit another 636
men for service with the motor trans
port division of the army along the
Southern boundary.
With a long distance telephone or
der for 396 motor trucks received
Wednesday by the Packard Motor Car
Company, came the request for the ad
ditional recruits. "We need exper
ienced motor vehicle mechanics," said
the voice of the quartermaster-general
over the wire. "Send along truckmas
ters. assistant truckmasters, drivers,
mechanics and cooks."
The Packard Company had already
furnished 122 men for government
service with the army. Packard em
ployes manned the 122 trucks shipped
to the border since March 22. which
are now carrying supplies to Gen.
Pershing's men in the interior of the
Southern republic and along the bor
der. The company also lost 109 em
ployes when the call came for National
Guard mobilization and another con
tingent will soon board ship on the
call for the state naval militia.
Trucks and men will be sent to the
South on special trains provided by
the government.
The point on the border for which
they were intended was not divulged
by the army officers who came to the
Packard plant to recruit men. Pre
vious shipments made the run to El
Paso and San Antonio. Texas within
50 hours, a speed exceeding that of the
fastest regular express trains.
The men who volunteer for motor
transport service do not enlist in the
army. They become civilian employes
of the government by signing contracts
for a year's service. When honorably
discharged. even though the year may
not have expired, they are furnished
return transportation to Detroit. The
salary is JIOO per month.
