GIRLS! HAVE WAVY,
THICK, GLOSSY HAIR
FREE FROM DANDRUFF
Save Your Hair! Double Its Beauty
in Few Moments-Try
This!

If you care for heavy hair, that
glistens with beatty and is radiant
with life; has an incompatible soft
ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty Of your hair, besides it im,ned-
lately dissolves every particle of dan
druff; you cannot have nice, heavy,
healthy hair if you have dandruff.
This destructice scurf robs the hair
of its lustre, it's strength and it's very
life, and If not overcome it produces
a feverishness and itching of the
scalp; the hair roots famsh, loosen
and die; then the hair falls out fast.
If your hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or ton
oily, get 25-cent bottle of Knowl-
toms Danderine at anv drug store or
toilet counter; apply little as di-
rected and ten minutes after you will
say this was the best investment you
ever made.
We sincerely believe, regardless of
everything else advertised, that if you
desire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair
and lots of it-no dandruff-no itch
ing scalp and no more falling hair
you must use Knowlton's Danderinc.
If eventually-why not now?

We have been making a study of
the Federal Farm Loan Act, and un-
less our conclusions are at fault this
movement is going to work a revo-
luton in our agricultural conditions.
One point that appears to us fixed is
that it is going to be an easy matter
for young man with a few hundred
dollars to buy good farm and have
a long time to pay for it at low
rate of interest. One thing that has
deferred many a young man from
making the venture has been the time
element. He feared that the loan
could not be extended sufficient length
of time to make him safe. The gov
ernment provides in the act that the
loan is to run from 5 to 40 years and
that the rate of interest is not to
exceed 6 per cent per annum.

ADVOCATES ATTRACTIVE
SHOW WINDOWS


SHOW WINDOWS
Mr.. Dear Editor:
l have been thinking it good plan
to advertise Union, if we can get the
Chamber of Commerce, the city of
Union, and other parties to contribute
some money to offer as prizes for the
best displays of stores during the
County Fair.
Lots of people are coming for the
Fair, and will, of course, think and
speak we'll Of our city, if we can get
the merchants interested in displaying
their goods we'll.
We know that, as a rule, merchants
devote more time to wait for custom
ers to come to buy their wares and
overlook the possibilities to be found
in displaying their goods. To display
Is to attract public attention, as well
as to produce more business, and, in
a roundabout way, to advertise for
our city, too. Not to advertise is the
sure way to adverse conditions. At
tractive show windows afford one of
the best ways of advertising.
To help others, we will help our
selves, too. And I believe the above
suggestion will be worth while.
Union suits" Boost, Union is
booming!
Yours for a live and progressive

BUFFALO

Buffalo, Oct. 9.-The Buffalo mill
operatives were made to wear very
broad smiles last week on seeing no.
tices posted in various departments
of the mill that the pay had been in
creased from ten to twenty per cent,
beginning October End. This was an
agreeable surprise and the increase
was entirely voluntary and none of
the employees had asked for such, of
course they are glad to get it, but
knowing the heavy damage to their
power plant at Neal Shoals a few
months ago, caused by the unusual
heavy and continuous rains and the
enormous cost of replacing the dam,
together with the other expense, the
operatives did not have the heart to
make such demand at this time,
though it will be remembered that
Mr.. o. F. Bennett, general manager
of the Union-Buffalo Mills company,
In statement given out soon after
assuming control of the mills that
Just as soon as the depressed condi-
ton of the mill would warrant an in
crease would be given without the
asking, and now the mills in the South
are experiencing the most prosperous
times since 1900 and realizing the
fact that it cost almost twice as much
to live as it did few years ago. es-
pecially the increase prices of all food
stiffs is noticeable and 4 view of these
facts he gave rs employees the BEN
eft of the prosperous times. Then,
again, Mr.. Bennett ver-- pleasantly
surprised the night force which has
been working at night since the power
was cut off with an extra bonus of
ten per cent to be paid when the night
work is discontinued. Since coming
here in 1913, Mr.. Bennett has made
many friends. He is kind courteous
and polite to every one and deserved
ly popular with his thousands of en-
plovees. Under his able and wise
management, the mills have prosper
ed and various improvements hav.
been and are being made. Recently
electric lights have been installed in
the homes and now the houses are
being freshly painted, which presents
very attractive appearance, the
streets and sidewalks are being work.
ed and the place is being beautified
generally. We have a travelling man,
spent several days here last week, ad-
vertising line Of goods, says he had
canvassed all the mill towns in the
Caiolinas and this one was the best
that he had yet visited. The prem
ises were clean and perfectly sanitary.
the houses were nicely furnished, and
kept neat and tidy, and the opera
tives gave evidence of prosperity and
contentment, which was attributed
largely to good wages, kind. treatment
and accommodating mill officials.
Mr.. j. G.. Crocker, Sr, one of our
oldest and most highly respected citi-
zens, died very suddenly last Satur-
day morning about 6 o'clock at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. Lonnie
Sumner, on Drug Store street. Mr..
Crocker was an Industrious opera
tive in the Buffalo mills. He worked
Friday night and had just returned
from his work and was sitting in
front of the fire arnarently well and
hearty. His daughter told him to
lie down and rest while she prepared
breakfast. He told her he would sit
up and wait, as he was going to
Lockhart as soon as he had breakfast

1t is to be hoped that everybody
will lend helping hand in the matter
of promoting the county fair this
year. The legislature appropriated
$500 to be given in premiums this

iums, therefore. A neat and attrac-
tive fair book has been gotten out.
If you are interested, call upon B. F.
Aston, Jr., Union, for a copy of the
premium list. Let everybody lend
hand and help make this fair a sue

GETTING GRAVEL

City and County Government Coop

ing Has Begun.

The City and County have formed
a partnership in an experiment that
is likely to turn out much to the ad-

to dredge gravel from the bed Of va
zoo River, and if successful will mean
much to both the C.sy and County.
A barge has been secured from Mr..
Gid Montjoy, Jr., the City is furnish
ing experienced labor and the County
is furnishing the pump. A large barge
of gravel has already been secured.
The next question is will it be suita-
bic for purposes for which it is want
ed by the City and County?
