Sure Way To Get
Rid Of Dandruff

There is one sure way that never fails
to remove dandruff completely and that
is to dissolve it. This destroys it en-
tirely. To do this. just get about four
ounces Of plain. ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring: use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning. most if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of 1t, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find. too, that all itching and
digging Of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft. and look and feel
a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This sim
pie remedy has never been known to
fail.

Instructs Drdggers
to Cut Road Cro,U,,s

Because the general practice Of
dragging the county roads has been to
always drag from the outside of the
road toward the middle, the result is
that in many places the county roads
are crowned too high in the center.
To remedy this defect in the roads
which has become quite serious in
places, County Engineer Fl. O. Hickok
is preparing general letter to all the
road draggers instructing them to re-
verse the usual way of dragging and
drag from the center Of the road to
the outside edges to cut off the crown.
The county engineer expects that If
these instructions are carried out the
roads that are crowned so high will
be greatly improved. The county is
cutting OFF the crown in the Lincoln
Highway east of the city with tractor
and graders.

COMMUNITY COURSE OPENS.
Delightful and Thorou shly Artistic Per
Torrance by SharIow Company.


.Marshalltown's first attempt at a
community entertainment course In
which different organizations of the
city are lending their support, was
launched Wednesday night at the
Methodist church when large audi
ence was more than pleased with the
first offering, Miss Myrna Sharlow
prima donna soprano, and her com
pany. The performance was delightful
and thoroughly artistic in every way.
Providing the community with high
class entertainments at nominal sum
is the object of this movement backed
by churches and other organizations
Heretofore, for several years. there
have been several smaller courses in
which the talent was more or less ordi-
nary. If the opening number on the
community course is any indication OF
the character Of the remaining seven
numbers, patrons can not help but be
entirely satisfied with the effort Miss
Sharlow's entertainment was worth the
price Of the entire course.
Miss Sharlow has very pleasing
Voice. under perfect control. She gets
away from the too common fault of
singing everything with the tremolo
stop out. Her tones are pure. her range
wide, and she sings with remarkable
ease. Her voice Is a real pleasure to her
audiencme, which was won without any
apparent effort on the part of the ar
fist. Miss Sharlow is more or less dra
matte in her manneIisms, due to her
training in grand opera. Her simple
numbers, noticeably the folk songs OF
Russian and Scotch origin, were well
done, and In her heavier numbers, in
Guiding two arias, the remarkable con-
troll she has over her voice was shown
to good advantage. This was especially
true in the Mozart aria, with violin OBJ
ligato. Probably the most pleasing
number. however. if one could be said
to be more pleasing than another, was
the encore, Gounods Ave Maria"
given by the entire company in re-
Spouse to "L'Amero ii Re Pastore.''
AS is the case with all good vocalists,
their work is assisted materially by
their Accomplishments. This was true
with the fine work Of Charles Lurvey.
Lovers of the piano were as much in
teresteG in Mr.. Lurvey's work as they
were in the stellar performer herself.
Mr.. LurVey appeared here last winter
as the accompanies Of Jenny DuFrau in
a private recital.
The other member of the company.
Robert Dolejsi violnist, contributed to
the program in the same high standard
of excellence His numbers were fin
ished, and met with hearty applause.
Especially pleasing We're his melody by
TscEaikowsky, Townsend's ''Berceuse,
and Beethoven's '"Minuett" Wonder
full technique was displayed in the Nov
acek number, and as an encore Mr..
Dolejsi played "Traumerei," the old IA
vorite by Schuman.
The general verdict of the large audi
ence at the opening number was that
the entertainment was Of the highest
class. The committee in charge is to be
congratulated upon Its opening offer
