race for county superintendent
of schools of the name Of Miss
Annette Leanord, the republican
candidate. This action was tak-
en- by Miss Leanord on account
of her marriage last Saturday to

because she intends to leave the
county at the expiration Of her
present term of cffice on January

a lady of their choice, the repub-
licans at a meeting held Monday
urged Miss Stella Olsen, the pres
ent deputy under Miss Leanord,
to accept the vacancy and make
the run for the election to this
office. Miss Olsen needs no in
PRODUCTION to the people Of Fal-
lon county. Eor the past two
years she has been in the super
intendent's office and with Miss
Leanord has brought this office
to the present high standard
which it is regarded by the state
superintendent's office. While
Miss Olsen is rather handicapped
by entering the race at this late
date her manv friends are gcing
to see that she gets g big vote al!

been resident Of FaIIon county
for the past eight years, has
taught school in many of the
rural communities and is we'll iit-
ted for the position. She is a
Montana girl, having been born
near Great Falls. ia NEich city
she graduated with }tonu1t, from
the graded and high schools.
Her selection as ou, county sup
erintendent will mean that the
schools of Fai!on county arc %z,

the superintendent S e]llcc and
prompt attention to all school
matters.
While Miss Olsen happens to
be one of those often termed
dear sister. in-laWs' to the ed
itor, we do not want the voters
to consider the above item as be-
ing merely a boost TO satisfy our
personal feelings or to keep peace
within the family. Anyone who
has met Miss Olsen, either in the
capacity of assistant superintend-
ent or as a teacher knows her
sterling worth and that she is en-
titled to this gift from the vot-
ers.

SAGE AND SULPHUR
 DARKENS GRAY HAIR
Brush this through faded, IifeIess locks and they become dark,
 glossy, youthful.

Hair that loses It's color and lustre, or when 1t fades, turns gray. dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful, and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attractive, use only this old-time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ture by asking at any drug store for a 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound which dark ems the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. Besides. 1t takes off dandruff, stops scalp itching and fall ing hair. You just dampen sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears: but what de- lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is that. besides beanti- fully darkening the hair after a few applications. it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an ap- pearance of abundance.-Advertise ment. ---
