The People Have Spoken.

The most interesting and exciting
political contest waged in Middlesex
for many years came TO an end
Tuesday when the voters of the
county selected the officers who are
to conduct the county's affairs for
the next few years. Ia some Of the
contests the result was apparent
months ago. notably that of the
clerkship. for which honor there
were five candidates. Mr.. Clarence
w. Eastman. the youngest of the
five. after very close and systema
tic campaign. came under the wire
the wiuner. by vote larger than the
combined vote of his four com
petitors. who are among the county S
most representative and populaE
citizens. Such an honor is indeed
unusual and entities Mr.. Eastman tc
hearty congratulations. We tender
ours and with them toe hope that
his official career may be a pleasure
to him and very useful to hi:
county. "-Southside Sentinel. Nov.

Loses in Love and Marriage.

Loses in Love and Marriage.
Hair is certainly most necessary to /
woman. Who could love and marry
a bald-headed woman? What
charms could one array to Offset
such a Disagreement?
A woman s goal is usually love and
marriage. Her cTowning glory is her
hair. The loss Of her hair mars her
beauty. happiness. and success.
Yet. right here in Williamsburg.
there are thousands OF women who
are negleoting or injuring thei. hair

matter Of time when il viii be utterly

Many women destroy the beauty
of their hair through thoughtlessness
or ignorance of certa n facts. They
use curling irons over-heated. or to
excess. which destroys the natural
oil of the hair. causing it to split.
break. and come out. They do not
shampoo their hair often enough. or
too often. They use soaps or pre-
parauons which contain ingredients
positively harmful to the scalp and
hair.
AS a result of such treatment.
dandruff is created, the hair loosens,
loses color. falls out. and badness
commences. unless proper and
prompt precautions are taken in time.

diseases bring about unhealthy scalp
and hair conditions.

Community work is that work into
which everyone enters, high and
low, rich and poor, for the good of
the whole. Such was the work OF
the Fair where everybody touched
elbows. and its influence will long
be felt. Not a discordant note was
heard. The spirit of good Will
reigned for fourteen hours. Each
wed with the other as 10 who coulo
do most.
It was a donation fair 70 raise
funds for a properly supervised and
equipped playground for Williams
burg. The ground has been loaned
by the college. the club house By
Mrs. Margaret HansfoTd, and the
Fair was the first effort of the com
munity to raise money for keeping
it up.
The movement was launched
through the generosity of the editors
of The Gazette and The Flat Hat,
who weeks ahead doomed the Fair
with their editorials.
The proprietor Of the Colonial
Inn entertained the musicians free OF
charge. The merchants OF the town
sent donations and advertised: some
OF them had handsome booths,
some spelled their wares anS gave
away samples. Mothers and the
young ladies of the town stood al
their posts and sold the contributed
articles all day long. Fathers len
their aid IN every way. One fathei
went 20 the fields and picked bush

a third helped his little son make ;
goat harness which brought a gooC
price. The truck farmers brough
fruits and vegetables. The colleg
faculty entered into the spirit Of th
children and professors served o.
committees.
The students lent their dramati
talent and spelled for the side show
and wares as Justify as they do a
a bell game.
The Seminary teachers and stu
dents had booths and made cand
as if by electricity.
The public schools made the
corner merry and the delicious be
chocolate served there helped t
make it popular. The boys of II
public schools put their hands to th
wheel and moved the piano an
