A—6 RAILROAD STRIKE VOTE COUNT BEGUN Five Brotherhoods Tallying Ballots in Cleveland on 20 Pct. Pay Hike. Br the Associated Press. CLEVELAND, Aug. 2—Five railroad brotherhoods today began a count of members’ votes on a strike for 20 per eent increase in wages. The tally here will include the ballots cast by the National Brother- hoods of Firemen, Trainmen and Engineers, the Order of Railroad Conductors and the Switchmen's Union, D. B. Robertson, president of the Firemen's Brotherhood, said. Brotherhoods approved a demand for the 20 per cent wage increase three months ago, Robertson said, but the demand had never been megotiated with railroad officials. Balloting on the strike, proposed if the wage request is not met, has been in progress for three weeks, Robertson declared. He estimates returns would not be known until Tuesday. A corps of 150 to 200 counters will tally the vote. Robertson said last night he wired H. A. Enochs, chairman of the Carriers’ Committee embracing all rail- road companies in the United States, asking that a meeting of brotherhood and railroad officials to discuss the wage increase be held in Cleveland The meeting was tentatively planned for Chicago on August 5, he said.

Brain Twizzlers BY PROF. J. D. Flint. AN EX-AVIATOR {riend of the ol Professor's was telling some won- derful stories the other day. Inci- dentally, he is an expert Twizeler. One of the stories was of & friend who was killed fighting over in France. | This fiyer was out on & solo patrol one | day and flew deep into enemy territory without seeing an enemy plane, He secured some valuable information during his observation and was think- ing of the surprise attack that eould be planned around it. He was re- turning when suddenly an enemy ship appeared from a cloud, banked and caught him in a disadvantageous po- sition. Before the fiyer could maneu- ver to give battle his ship was hit in a vital spot and he went spinning down and crashed. He crashed within | his own lines, but was dead when the first person from the trenches reached the wreck. Having died a hero, his family was sent a decoration com- memorating his service.

'MPEROR AUGUSTUS chose this month as his own The Roman Senators, wishing to please him, stole one day from February in order that August should have as many days as July, Julius Caesar's month. Whether it has an extra day or not, it is most certainly filled with some very interesting members of the outdoor tribe, and so many of them you are on friendly terms with. The insect chorus seems to have the most ardent singers in it, and the hotter the day the louder their voices are. The snowy tree cricket, the katydid, locust, grasshopper and field crickets vie with each other in their songs. On the dogbane there are bright green and red dogbane beetles. In sandy spots the doodlebug makes his famous sliding walls for the inquisitive ants. Aphis lions are stepping from their high-stemmed poles in the midst of aphids. Butterflies and moths are at their best this month. Flitting over the brilliant flowers, laying their eggs, they are more easily caught than when they are flirting about over earlier blossoms. While there are a few birds raising their second broods of babies, most of the birds to be seen this month have donned their traveling clothes preparatory to heading for the South, < The gentle little wood pewee still 886,950 HAIRS T0 GROW antéefl;aa/.wadso Children chants from the woodlands. In the meadows you may flush a covey of young bobwhites, while the wild-rice marshes attract the attention of the bobolinks and the streams are visited by the beauiful blue and sometimes the green herons. Fields, roadsides and meadows are made enchanting by goldenrods. Queen Anne’s lace or wild carrot nods with the passing breeze. Where the soil is moist, handsome, tall-stemmed Joe pye-weeds, with their magenta flowers, can be seen for some dis- tance. Close by, on the dusty roadside, the blue-faced chickory reflects the clear sky above. The poppy is the month’s flower. Early mornings the fields, meadows and lawns show the fairylike neck- laces dripping with dew pearls. Spiders cannot use their beautiful traps until the sun shines upon them, drying up all moisture.

LL of the hair which is on your scalp today will fall out and will be replaced by new hair within the next four years. This normal “hair cycle” continues as long as your scalp is healthy. Baldness comes when some local scalp disorder (such as dandruff) keeps the hair-growing structure from replacing the hair which reaches maturity and falls out. To avoid baldness you must help your scalp to re-grow 81 hairs each day — 886,950 during the “danger age” —20 to 50. The Thomas® can help you by overcoming any and all of the 14 local scalp disorders which may be leading you to baldness. When you start Thomas treatment, your dandruff disappears, abnormal hair-loss stops, and new hair starts to grow on the thin and bald spots. You need a good head of hair— and you can haveit!
