Billy Sunday Puts Kaiser
and Booze in Same Class
New York, April 11. —Billy Sunday
got out his verbal sledgehammer for
moral and military slackers here last
night and battered them to pieces.
"Folks," he yelled, waving his fist
and stamping his foot, "a revival is a
declaration of war and a declaration
of war Is a revival.
"That's what this old country needs—
revival, moral and military. A declara
tion of war is a renewal of our fidelity
to the stars and stripes. A revival is
a renewal of the same to God. We need
'em both.
"God." he leaned back and shouted
heavenward, "I'm gettin' tired of seein'
your goods on the bargain counter."
Then, turning back to the audience:
"We've got to drive booze off of
Broadway. And kaiserism out of Ger
many."

ed increase of applications is largely
due to the recent announcement that
all single men between nineteen and
twenty-five years may be drafted," Mr.
Scully said. "Any man who thus seeks

Alkali in Soap
Bad For the Hair
Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
Its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins It.
The best thing for steady use is Just
ordinary mulslfled cocoanut oil (which
1s pure and greaseless), and Is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaapoonfula will cleanse
the hair and acalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water an<? rub it
In. It makes an abundance t rich,
creamy lather, which rlnaen out easily,
removing every partlclo of rtusf, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and It leaves
the acalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mutalfled cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, It'a very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply-every mem
ber of the family for months.
HJLRRIABURG eJUftl TELEGRXPH
BRITISH ATTACK
AMAZES GERMANS
Hindcnburg's Line Fails to
Hold Before Smashing
Advance
By Associated Press
From a Staff Correspondent of the
Associated Press With the British
Armies In France, via London, April
11. The British sweep east of Arras
has turned the northern pivot of the
famous Hindenburg line and large
forces of British troops are pressing
far beyond the top of that German
barrier, which was prepared after end
less months of labor.
The manner in which the British
have advanced over scores of German
trenches, which the Germans must
have believed would protect them in
definitely, has been little short of
miraculous. The Germans themselves
have been amazed at the audacity of
the invaders and have surrendered
with an air of complete mystification.
The success of the attack launched
yesterday against some of the strong
est sections of the German lines of the
entire western front seems to prove
the fact that the artillery has finally
solved the problem of entrenched war
fare. It lias taken months and years
of preparation, but when the guns
were finally massed against the Ger
man front they hammered it into sub
mission.
It was this hammering that demor
alized the German lines on the Homme
during the winter and brought about
the recent retirement of the Hinden
burg line stretching from Arras south
eastward to St. Quentin. Now, the top
of this line has been crossed and it is
being attacked alonit the entire dis
tance. The meaning of the airplane
activity last week, when the British
fliers deliberately set. out to clear the
air of Germans, lias been revealed in
the new attacks.
Covered by Airmen
To-day the intrepid airmen .were
covering the advance everywhere,
keeping the troops advised of enemy
movements and enabling the British
artillery to shell every area whero
concentrations appeared to be taking
place. The day was anything but
ideal for flying. It was blustery from
sunrise to sunset and furious snow
squalls were in the air at half hour
intervals. During these the machines
were completely submerged by the
snow barrage.
The Canadians triumphantly an
nounce that the famed Vimy ridge
had been cleared of all Germans.
Vimy ridge has been a historic battle
ground in , this war. The country on
both sides is dotted with graveyards,
In which lie tens of thousands of
French and German soldiers who gave
up their lives in the flght either to take
or to hold this imposing position. The
British, too. have tasted of the bitter
ness of the battles there and the Can
adians had been holding on to a slen
der position on the western slope all
winter only by the display of most
tenacious courage.
Peaceful Germans to Have
Much Freedom During War
, By Associated Press
Washington, April 11. Depart
ment of Justlco officials have under

iting sir knights and ladies who will
visit them during the 64th annual con
clave of the Grand Commandery,
Knights Templar of Pennsylvania,
which will be held in Pittsburgh dur
ing the week of May 21. Harrisburg

their headquarters in the English
room of the Fort Pitt Hotel during
the conclave, and special entertainment
will be provided. Refreshments will be
served during the tiu-ee days; the Tem
plar quartet and orchestra have been
engaged and no expense will be spared
by this commandery to make the con
clave the largest and greatest in the
history of the Grand Commandery of

parade.

instructed to spare nothing in decorat
ing the headquarters and a number of
electric crosses and crowns, together

for the occasion. The committee has
In consideration the arrangement of a
grandstand to accommodate 2,000 per
sons along the route of the parade for
the wives and lady friends of the mem
bers of Allegheny commandery.
In former years It has been the cus
tom to provide souvenirs, but in the
last five or six years little of this has
been done at conclaves, on account of
the large supply that is necessary to
meet the demand. However, as Alle
gheny commandery is particularly in
terested in the present conclave, the
committee has decided to furnish a
souvenir for the ladles, and at least
10,000 will be provided, the nature of
which will be announced later.

CLEANUP
YOUR SYSTEM
FOR SPRING
Purify Your Blood and
Put Yourself in
Good Shape
The necessity of being prepared
for any emergency is being for
cibly impressed upon each and
every individual. First and fore
most is the importance of having
a sound physical body, of keeping
yourself in prime condition al
ways, so as to be at all times
equipped to fight an enemy that
is ever threatening the enemy
of 111 Health.
This means that every assist
ance must be given to nature in
her effort to combat disease and
keep the system in proper condi
tion. And right now, as Spring
approaches, nature needs' more
help than ever, for the system
needs a thorough housecleaning
to get rid of the accumulated im
purities and thus avoid the dang
erous fevers that are so prevalent
in Spring and Summer.
You have doubtless felt the
need of a good tonic, though you
may not have recognized the call
that nature was making in the
form of loss of appetite, lassitude,
energy gone, and a general "good
for-nothing" feeling that pervades
your whole body. Such symp
toms mean that the blood has be
come sluggish, that the accumu
lated impurities are clogging the
circulation, and that a general im
pairment of your health is immi
nent unless the proper corrective
steps are promptly taken.
There is absolutely no neces
sity for permitting the change of
seasons to cause this rundown
condition of your system, for
there is a remedy easily within

BABY'S CRIES HIS
PRIVATECABARET
Woke Youngster in Middle
of Night For Enter
tainment
New York, April 11.—"In the days of
old," celebrated by minor and major
poets, the youth who contemplated
plunging over the precipice of matri
mony was warned, admonished and
threatened. In plptures, poems and "hu
morous" essays depicting the horrors
of waking up in the middle of the
night to make a futile attempt to quell
the screams of his future offspring.
It Is not recorded that any of these
well-meant efforts served the purpose.
They will do It but the utilization of a
baby's lamentations at night as a sort
of private cabaret was left to Barnett
Caliane. an inventor, according to his
wife, Mrs. Johanna Caliane, who de
scribes herself as a violinist, and who
lives at 54 West 115 th street with her
seven-year-old son.
Mrs. Cahane is seeking an annul
ment of her marriage. She charges
that her husband was eccentric. Jus
tice Finch, of the Supreme Court, has
reserved decision. She testified:
"My husband was so eccentric that
he would wake the baby in the middle
of the night just to hear him cry."
She continued:
"Immediately after our marriage T
found he was peculiar. We came from
the clergyman's house and Mr. Cahane
turned to the driver and said: "Now
drive us to the cemetery.'
"But he laughed when he said that,
did he not?" asked Justice Finch.
"No, sir. He said it in all serious
ness, and that is one of the reasons
I began to think him eccentric."
Mr. Cahane liked to hear both his
wife and baby cry, Mrs. Cahane said.
"He insisted that it was very good for
children to cry—that It souaded well
and developed them."
