BUDGET FIGHT IS

derman Albert Thomson and a num-
Der OF others agreed with Alderman
Gamblers views on the fire alarm
contract
Councilman Mason said the atti-
tude OF the Mayor had prevented the
extension of any alarm to his section,
the Tenth Ward, and other outlying
districts
A caucus is agreed upon by a ma
iority Of the members Of Council who
are not members of the Finance
Committee.
Await Copies OF Budget.
They Will met as soon as city
Clerk Taylor furnishes copies Of the
budget
It is doubtful II the opposition to
the budget can muster a majority in
Council, but it is reported that five
members OF the Aidermanic Board
have agreed to hold it up until it is
ameroed as the caucus decides.
Some of the improvements left out
that will be insisted upon will he

pital, more money for the adjustment
OF Whitehall street and intersecting
streets
Residents Of the West Side have
called an Indignation meeting for
Tuesday night at o'clock in the
Jones Avenue Baptist Church to pro-
test against the neglect of the Davis
Street School by the Finance Com
mittee. They urge that the present
building is a disgrace to the city.
Money Will Not Go Around.
Additional Improvements are want
ed in every section, but there is not
nearly enough money for them all. Il
is not likely that any other appro
rriation besides the $50, 900 for the
fire alarm contract will be recalled.
In contrast to the attitude of the
Councilman is the complacency OF
the heads of departments. Alderman
Jesse Armistead introduced a resolu
ton Monday to make the increase in
the pay Of teachers effective at once
instead of September ]. 1t was re-
terrcd to the Finance Committee
The Schools Department is gener
ally dissatisfied So is the Smoke
Department. The others are not max
ing any complaint.

NARDENS OUT
Change in Law on Prison County
Heads Likely To Be Haastened
by Floyd County Incident,

A change in the law governing the
appointment and salaries Of convict
camp officials may result from the
latest squabb)c between the State
Prison Commission and the Floyd
County Commissioners. the outcome
Of which was still in doubt Tuesday
morning
A guard had been reinstated by the
County Commit ssioners after having
been duly discharged by the County
Warden, backed byt he Prison Com
mission
The guard in question was charged
with leaving his gun around so care
lessly that it could easily have been
obtained by some OF the prisoners he
was supposed to be guarding.
The Warden, after warning him
several times, discharged him. and
the Prison Commission approved the
act. Then the Commissioners Of
Floyd County put him back on the
job.
Where Conflict Arises.
II seems that the conflict OF au-
thority and constant friction arose
from the fact that while the Wardens
If the county camps, as well as the
physicians and subordinate employ
ees, receive their appointments from
the Prison Commission and are re-
sponsible TO that body for the proper
performance Of their duties, they are
paid by the County Commissioners,
who sometimes take this means of in
dicsting an authority rather more au-
tocratic than would seem to he jus

commissioners took a dislike to the

asked the Prison Commission to re-

Since that time Hensler has ac-
quired a better position as Warden

To DARKEN HAIR
APPLY SAGE TEA
Look Young! Bring Back Its
Natural Color, Gloss and
Thickness.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur and alcohol
added will turn gray, streaked and fad
ed hair beautifully dark and luxuriant,
remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp
itching and falling hair. Just a few
applications will prove a revelation if
your hair is fading, gray or dry, scrag-
gly and thin. Mixing the Sage Tea and
Sulphur recipe at home, though, is trou-
blesome An easier way is to get the
ready-to-use tonic, costing about so
cents a large bottle at drug stores.
known as "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy" thus avoiding a lot of
muss.
While wispy, gray faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractiveness.
BY darkening your hair with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, be-
cause 1t does it so naturally, so evenly.
You just dampen sponge or soft brush
with 1t and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand al a time: by
morning all gray hairs have disap-
peared, and, after another applica ton
or two, your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant.-Advt
