NEBRASKA PUTS '." OVER LAST BLOW (Con tinned From Pe One) measure the eighteenth amendment to the federal constitution. Ail but half a dozen of the 48 states are expected to adopt the amendment In the next few weeks but the action of Nebraska today gives the ratifica tion of three-fourths of the states, the number necessary to administer John Barleycorn the knockout punch. One year from today, every saloon, brewery, distillery and wine press in the land must close its doors unless, as now seems likely, they are already closed ajt that time by war prohibition which goes, into effect next July 1, and stays until completion of demobilization. The amendment which outlaws liquor in this country reads: SffSi011 1A"e'- one year from the rat fication of this article the manu facture, Bale or transportation of intoxi- fhlrf .q,UOrS WUhin' tho 'PrtatIon thereof Into, or the, exportation thereof from the United States and all territory .ubject to the jurisdiction thereof, for vu, are Hereby prohibited.

(J ' & St Captain Leland Willson Captain Leland Willson, attached to the quartermaster corps service in France, died at base hospital No. 9 at Chateauroux, France, on November 24, 1918; from multiple abscess of the lungs, according to word received by his wife, Mrs. Dora Willson of this city. Captain Willson was aged 37 years and had served in the regular army for the last 10 years. He was sent overseas at the beginning of the war.

"Section 2 The congress and the sev eral states have the concurrent power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. "Section 3 The article shall be in operative unless it shall have been rati fied as an amendment to the constitu tion by the leerisl states as provided by the constitution wnnin seven years of the date of sub mission thereof to the states bv mn. gress." This is the amendment adopted by congress December 18, 1917, and ratified by 36 states a little more than a year later. And here are some of the things that the amendment will do : Wipe out at a stroke 236 distilleries. 992 breweries and over 300.000 saloons and wholesale Honor Kiti forcing their employes to seek other Jobs. Cut off from these persons annual income totaline more th n C7ft nAn nAn t pre-war times. Cut off from the TTnitrf ury a source of tavAttnn uuii icu uyun for an even billion dollars in the first arans or me new revenue bill and mil lions in additional Ineom tn urles. Itemove the liquor question from na tional. State and ritv rtnlitina fn. ., n .i and keep decreasing city, state and fed eral expense by decreasing flaw vio lations.' .r - s - Distillers are already planning a fight on the amendment tn the. courts on the ground that it was not adopted by two thirds of the whol congress, and that the seven year limitation In It Invali dates the measure. Dry a say they are conrident that neither of these contentions will hold and on their side are preparing legisla tion carrying heavy penalties for viola tion of prohibition. . A special agency in the Internal reve nue bureau will probably be asked. The first 36 states ratifying the amend ment are: Mississippi, Virginia, Ken tucky, North Dakota, South Carolina, Maryland, Montana, Texas. Delaware.

Washington and Alder Cocoanut Oil Makes A Splendid Shampoo If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash ft with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and Is very harmful. Just plain mulsifled cocoanut oil (which Is pure and entirely grease less), is much better than the most ex pensive soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't pos sibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and It leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap. and a few ounces is enough to last everyone In the family for months. Ad. j 1 J. C. English Co.
