For Gray Hair
Il Can Be Darkened Very Cleverly
by Using This Simple Formula.

In this age, when ones personal
appearance counts for so much, and
when both the social and business
world puts a ban upon everything
that denotes the approach of age. it
becomes a matter of duty to those
whose hair Is turning gray to adopt
some rational means of darkening ii.
thus hiding the traces of Time. An
excellent. yet very simple solution of
the problem Is to procure at the drug
store an ounce of bay rum, a quarter
ounce of glycerine and a small box
of Barbo Compound, and at home
you can dissolve the Barbo Com
pound in ounces of water, after
ward adding the other two ingre-
dents. This makes a remarkably
effective mixture for darkening gray
hair, and at the same time remov-
ing dandruff and other Ills of the
scalp. besides making the hair soft,
glossy and young looking" 1t
darkens the beard as well as the
hair. 1t is applied once a week un
til the hair is darkened, then every
two weeks. 1t does not rub off or
color the skin and is much more
satisfactory than the common DIVES
and stains.

to Grossmuller he went TO these thirty
houses in his automobile, accompanied
by a physician. who administered anti
dotes. Tonight it was said that all of
those affected will recover.

SUNDAY SCHOOLS
SET j. s. RECORD
Friendly Rivalry Between At
Ianta Bodies Results in New
Attendance Marks.

Atlanta is witnessing a Sunday school
battle which has begun to attract the
attention OF the entire country. This
city shelters each Sabbath day two of
the largest, if not THE largest Sun
day school classes in the entire coun-
try. This distinction has been brought
about entirely through the efforts Of
the members of the Sunday schools of
the Second Baptist and the First Chris
! tian churches.
Three weeks ago the Christians came
to the Baptists with the gauge Of bat
tie in the form of a def that within
thirteen weeks they could outstrip the
Baptists in the number of new Sunday
! school members secured and at the end
of that time have the largest Sunday
school congregation of any similar
body in the United States-not barring
any denominations. The def was at
once challenged by the Baptists. A
plan of combat was mapped out A
system of points was arranged The
Baptists. already the stronger as to
Sunday school attendance, were handi-
capped 80 points-the sum to be taken
out of the Baptist total when the con-
| test would naturally end thirteen weeks
! hence.
| Work on Point System.
| The contestants fixed up a schedule
about as follows: New members
counted points; members on time,
points: members in seat at $3.50 a. m.
l point; members staying to church,
points.
Then the merry war was on. The
first Sunday the Christians showed a
distinct gain over their Baptist rivals.
The second Sunday the Baptists turned
out more even showing. Last Sun
day the Baptists reported 142 new
members, while the Christians gloated
over 1853 new faces
The Baptists reported $50 persons
present at the Sunday school session.
The Christians proudly pointed to the
attendance record Of 971.
What next Sunday will bring forth
is problematical. Both sides are comb
ing the highways and the byways for
members. Children who have never
seen the inside Of any Sunday school
room are being bundled up Sunday
morning and taken to the services. Men
and women, boys and girls, matrons
and fathers are all taking part in the
early morning something they
never did before in the course of their
lives
Work Producing Good Results.
This battle Is not waged over any
cause save from the most friendly spr-
! it," said DR.. White, pastor of the Sec
ond Baptist church, today. I'VE are
| just friendly rivals-that is all. Al
ready the campaign has proved fruit
full. We are reaching into homes which
never knew the real meaning and help
of Sunday school before. We are
touching people who will largely bene-
fit by association with the Sunday
school work, and already in our efforts
to get new members We have discov-
eerd that many people are being kept
from the Sunday schools by a lack of
| the necessities of life-I mean clothes.
in some instances. These cases would
never have been brought to light save
for this campaign, and l thank God we
| started it,"
| The campaign still has ten weeks to
run. What those weeks will bring
forth yet remains to be seen.
