SUNDAY IS BOOKED
 SOLID OVER YEAR; HOLDS DATE FOR US
Bfid idgeport Pastors To Take Final Action on Inviting
 Kim Next Monday.


 Whether or not any further efforts will be made to engage F5i1Iy Sun day, the baseball Evangelist. for a series of revival meetings here, will be decided at 8 special meeting of the Bridgeport Pastors association which has been called for 10.30 next Monday morning in the assembly hall of the Y M, c. A. building. AL though prominent members of the Pastors association are very much opposed to Rev. MT. Sunday and his methods and have already at meet ings of the association forcibly ex- pressed themselves against any pEnn to have the Evangelist come here, a majority of the influential members of the association favor the plan and it is more than likely that the vote at the meeting on Monday will be to invite MT. Sunday to come to Bridge port.
 If there is a favorable vote on the matter another committee must be appointed to go to MT. Sunday and arrange tic terIns on which he will come here. When the nine members of the committee of ten appointed by the Pastors association visited Phila,- delphia two weeks ago to look over MT. Sundays work, they found that he has engagements which will keep him busy until the first week in Sep tember, 1916. Even for this week

GIRLS! LOTS OF BEAUTIFUL HAIR
 NO DANDRUFF-25 GENT DANDERINE

ference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just n1oisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair,-taking one small strand at time. The effect is amaz- ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable Iustre, softness and luxuriance.
 Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowltonts s Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as. pretty and, soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of it if you will just try little panderine.-Adv.
