That there will be small chance OF
Virginia,s disputing with Georgetown
or Washington and Lee for the honors
in the South Atlantic section seems
a foregone conclusion, judging by the
start the Charlottesville contingent
has made. Ambition has hurt more
than anything else.
Last season Virginia defeated Yale
and all but won from Harvard. I'm
mediately the Orange and Blue waxed
ambitious. The one-year rule was
adopted, Virginia forgetting that all
those large colleges and universities
In the North have from three to six
times the number of candidates in
uniform every fall. The Virginians
wanted to match their skill with the
They relied on what they had shown
in 1915.
Losing seven out of its 1915 regular
team, Virginia faced Yale far weaker
than IL was in 1915. Last year Allan
Thurman made II possible to win from
Yale by his wonderful Kicking. But
Thurman didn't play last Saturday.
Yale, through its possession OF a big
squad. could come back where Nir-
ginia, dropping its freshman, could
do nothing.
Virginia will yet tackle Harvard,
This game Is scheduled for November
4. and II will find the Grim son, well
prepared; IL it is to be prepared this
season. The Orange and Blue has
gone out OF its logical section for
football honors. For one season IL has
| been unfortunate. but the Charlottes-
Vile eleven cannot hope for triumphs
this season, especially over those
teams with which IL hopes to be com
pared. 1t Is but the old, familiar
story of vaulting ambition, which has
lost thrones.

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 it no matter how much
dandruf you may have.
You will find, ZOO, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy. 1ustrous;
glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel
hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to tail.

When seventy Of the leading repub-

laration declaring for Elihu Root as
candidate for the republican nomina-

for Justice Hughes. and Colonel

political situation in that state seems
to be considerably mixed. But the
main question relates to which one
of these candidates is most likely to
carry the state at the November cleo

man politically Of the three. He
would, moreover, come nearer to
