WILLIAMS RAPS
LAWS TO PLACE

Tells How Superintendent

to Build up Political Ma

The county superintendent bill pass

schools into politics.
The bill provides that the county SUI

county school superintendent IN 1916
in the same manner as sheriffs, clerks,
treasurers. auditors and other county

Intendents are not fighting the bill.
I'VE fought it for years and we are
disguised now" he explained. The
bill has been In every legislature Tor
wears but never in it's present strength
I believe 1t will pass the senate and
become law, but many other superln'
tendents feel that it will be killed.
"A wonderful political machine can
be built up with such a law on the
books. With 14S teachers, using
Wayne county as an example, 1t would
be easy for a county superintendent to
protect himself But we would rather
have the trustees elect the superin
tendent on his merits and not on mis-
political faith"
Mr.. williams will be in office until
August 1917. II the bill passes, q

HAIR AND THE
MARRIAGE MARKET

Too many men have been unpleas-
antly surprised to find that their wife's
hair which they had so greatly admired
was only a switch or transformation
We now know that poor hair is a con-
fession of either laziness or lack Of
knowledge and that fair care with
sensible means will insure scalp health
and hair beauty. In washing the hair
1t is not advisable to use a makeshift,
but always use a preparation made for
shampooing only. You can enjoy the
best that is known for about three
cents a shampoo by getting Il package
of canthrox from your druggist; dis
solve teaspoonful in cup of hot
water and your shampoo is ready.
After its use the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color. Dandruff, excess
Oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. Your hair will be SO fluffy
that 1t will look much heavier than it
is. It's lustre and softness will also
delight you, while the stimulated scalp
gains the health which insures hair
growth.-adv.

Always we have urged users of

COPENHAGEN, Jan. 26.-All traf-

important trade port, has been STOP

GEORGIANS ARE GETTING
FIGURES FROM BELGIUM

Atlanta, Ga.-Georgia statisticians
who are preparing data in dealing with
the question of temperance and prohi-
bition, have received some figures
from Belgium which have caused de-
cided surprise among the gentlemen
who favor enforced total abstinence.
The conduct of little Belgium in the
present war, it will be recalled, has
aroused worldwide admiration as fur
nishing history with one of it's noblest
pages. In addition Belgium has borne
a reputation for thrift and prosperity
in times of peace surpassed by no
country in the world. Though densely
populated it has practically no paupers
and the individual percentage of saw
ings is high. Yet statistics just fur
nished by the United States Depart
ment Of Commerce and Labor show
that Belgium drinks more beer per
capita than any other country in the
world. That is to say that the thrift
est and most prolident Of all eoun
tries consumes the greatest quantity
Of beer per head OF population. How
ever, details Of the report go on to
show, this does not mean that indi
viduals in that country consume i'm
moderate quantities Of beer: it means
that the entire population drink beer,
but that they drink It regularly and
temporarily
