PERMANENT HIGHWAYS

A correspondent in this issue OF the
journal in connection with the public
road proposition expresses a doubt as
10 the permanancy Of gravel on roads.
The question of what material shall
be USED in the public road may be in.
portant after the parish has decided to
build a permanent system AT this
time however the question Of grave,
or brick or shell is not directly before
the people. BY reference to the ordin
ance on the question it will be seen
that the proposition is on bond issue
for the purpose of constructing per-
manent public roads and bridges. We
presu ne that il case the election goes
in favor of the proposition the Police
Jury will 90 into an investigation Of
the plans and specifications for the
roads. They will consider the proper
location, proper width and proper
material to be used in the construction
With reference to that particular
question however of what material to
be used we confess that we have no
defined convictions. We have been
rather inclined to the use of gravel.
Our observation, while of course
limited, has led us to the general BELIZE
that gravel is cheaper, and more dura'
BILE and generally gives better SatisfaC.
tiSn than other materials.
The main question before the parish
Just now is permanent roads. We be.
lieve that the investment will be a
good one for the Parish and che that
we can not afford to vote down.

Our aim is to help you observe a higher

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beautiful
glossy, silky hair, do by all means get
rid of dandruff, for L vii starve your
hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't DO much good to try to
brush or wash it out The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces OF ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to noisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning most, IL not all, OF your
dandruff viii be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of It.
You will find. too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp WI stop. and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you viii need, no matter
| how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

height of illusion as in The Whip,

The props used in the thrilling
scenes are all real and therefore the
audience is not really deceived, as the
word is generally used, because 1t is
viewing the genuine article. In this
first attempt in years in the popular
old time form of entert ainment, the
melodrama, there is an automobile
smash-up with real automobiles, a
train wreck with read tracks and loco
motives. and a horse race with live
horses. Stage realism can go no further.
and thus it is not surprising that
