CITY MARSHAL
Gets TAX At LAST
Especial to Times-Recorder.)

Especial to Times-Recorder.)
ATLANTA, June 5.-If it had not
been for the "kind heartedness" of the
city tax committee, Hugh J. Lynch, "A
resident of this city, who has been alb
sent from Atlanta for a couple of
years, would have lost his handsome
home in payment of a debt Of seventy
cents which he never owed to begin
with!
Lynch came home to find that his
house had been advertised and sold by
the city to satisfy city bill of seventy
cents for work done on his front side
walk. S#lH
The nature of the bill made the affair
still more interesting. Two years ago
a city workman took some brick from
in front of the Lynch home to make
repairs further down the street Lynch
complained and workman replaced
the brick, but the city wanted to
charge him for the workman's time.
He refused to pay and thought the in
cident was closed.
The committee today magnanimous-
ly agreed to adopt relief resolution
by which Mr.. Lynch will get his house
back.

LONDON, June 5.-The reason why
the workers who remain at their
places in British industries are ask
ing for war bonuses is explained by
Secretary Robert Williams, of the
National Transport Workers Fedora
ton, who says that while the real need
of the workers is to meet the increas-
ed cost of living, the employers are
reaping exceptionally large profits, in
! stead of suffering from the war. AL
though $4,000 members OF the Sea-
mems Union have gone to the war, the
merchant ship-owners are operating to
such advantage that they charge six
freight While 10000 trade unionists
altogether are bearing arms in Brit
aims defense, the millers have in
creased their profits four-fold.
In his case against the ship-owners,
Williams points out that they now
have no serious competitors in the
carrying trade of the world, and that
as a result of the elimination of Ger
mon ships, the freight rates between
Argentine and British ports had jump
ed from So and fraction ton to
around SIT. Another instance of pro-
fit to ship-owners was that a certain
cargo steamer built in 1910 at a cost
of $4,000 was recently sold for a
hundred and fifty thousand dollars, an
increase of 76 per cent. over the orig
inal price.
While the ship-owners complain of
unfair treatment by the Admiralty,
which had taken over many merchant
ships as transports, the arbitration
board which has settled disputes in
these matters consists almost entirely
of ship-owners. At the time the
board was appointed shipping pros
poets looked exceedingly dull and the
owners clamored for government SER
vice. A rental of nine shillings six
pence per ton gross register was de-
cided upon, with a discount of six
pence off for vessels employed for

Hello Girls
AsActresses

ATLANTA, Ca, June 4.-The pretty
telephone girls and other employees
of the Southern Bell appeared before
the public in an ew role last night
when they put on an elaborate variety
show at the Atlanta theatre under the
auspices of the Telephone and Tele-
graph Society of Atlanta.
1t was polite vaudeville at its best,
and the performance was warmly ap-
plauded by the large audience which it
attracted. The Telephone society
numbers about 1000 members and con
tains some of the best musical and
dancing talent in Atlanta.
One Of the bright particular stars
was a visiting young lady, Miss Betty
Brown, of New Orleans, who took a
leading part in the sketch, Before
the Dance" The performance was
said to be the best ever put on by
amateur talent in Atlanta.

"No Congratulations"

When Otto Edward Leopold von Bismarck Schoenhausen was born the embarrassed parents wrote to their friends: kindly dispense with con- gratulations." Why? The event hap pened in Germany, where All Fools day was still significant. But Bis marck was born to take the sting out of Der Tag. On one thing, however, he remained fool nearly his whole life long-his idolatry of beer. His reply to those opposed to him in this mat ter would probably have been to pro. duce a huge silver jug and fill it with Bavarlan beer "That is the head" he would say, "of Field Marshal Derf- finger, cOnqueror of the Swedes, and one of my ancestors" This Derfflinger, when boy, was apprenticed to a tailor. His master sent him for a jug of beer. On his way back he drank up the beer, and in terror en- listed-"with much advantage to the Tatherland,' as Bismarck pointed oHt. But beer proved Bismarck's un. doing, and he had to abandon the hab- it by medical advice.

YOi CAN'T BRUSH OR
 WASH OUT HiNDRCFF

The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it. th2n you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid alvoa; apply it at light whon re- tiring; use enough to moistan the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 DO this tonight, and by morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be some, and three cr four more ap- plications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of It, no matter how muck dandruff you may have.
 You will find. too. chat all itching and digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrcus. glossy, silky and scft, and look and fcsl hundred times bet ter.
