Cocoanut Oil Fine
 For Washing Hair

you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with.
 Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful. Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil (which is pure and entirely grease 1ess), is much better than the most ex- pensive soap or anything else you can use for shampooing, as this can't pos- sibly injure the hair.
 Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy father, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruf and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly. and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
 You can get mulsi6ed cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap. and a few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family for months.

Collier Adams Wedding Brilliant Social Event.

Miss Elizabeth Adams and T. J. Collier III. were married at 9:3O o'clock last night at Trinity Episcopal church.
 The wedding was of more than casual interest to the friends of the young people, because it marked not only the joining of the lives and des- tinies of two people who are popular beyond the ordinary, but also it con- meets closely families which have long been among the most prominent, as they are among the oldest, in this section. There were other unusual features, notably the fact that the bridal party, as it were, was family party, the officiating clergyman being cousin of the bride, and the grooms- men, maids, ushers, all being relatives to either the bride or the groom. T. J. Collier II, the father of the groom, was the best man. The maids were Miss Kathleen Collier, sister of the groom, and Miss Henrietta Adams, sister of the bride, respectively. Sam w. Trimble, groomsman, is cousin to both bride and groom, and J. w. Adams, groomsman, is brother to the bride. Collier Lee, usher, is cousin to the groom, and William Roe Brew ster, usher, is cousin to the bride.
 The church was crowded with friends of the bridal pair long before the hour fixed for the ceremony. The chancel was banked with masses of ferns and palms, the color scheme be- ing green and white, with just touch of pink. White hydrangeas and sweet peas, with pink gladioli and sweet peas, were the flowers used.
 As prenuptial solo, Miss Victoria Harrell sang "A Love Song," follow ing which the strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march heralded the approach of the wedding party The bride en- tered with her uncle, George H. Adams, and joined the other members of the party at the altar. There she was given in marriage by her mother. The ceremony was said by Rev. D. l.. Trimble, while the soft organ tones in "Schubert's Serenade" were heard. Miss Harrell's solo was sung to the accompaniment by Mrs. F. E. Rem frow on the organ and Mrs. c. z.

 BY HER PARAMOUR

Annie Love, negress about 35 years of age. was shot and instantly killed by her paramour Will Russ, aged 40, on the Butt plantation yes terday forenoon. Coroner H. E. Will Hams conducted an inquest, the Jury returning a verdict exonerating the man of blame. Because of this no ar rest was made by Deputy Sheriff I. l.. McBurnett, who had investigated the killing.
 Testimony at the inquest showed the pair quarreled. and that the wom- an declared the intention of killing Russ. He fired with a small rifle, the bullet penetrating the heart. The woman had no weapon in her hand though an unopened pocket knife was found in her clothing.
 Immediately after the killing, Russ notified his employer, c. W. Butts, who at once summoned the officers.

FINANCING PIG CLUBS.
Bankers Furnish Money to Members
 and Take Their Personal Notes.

The bankers in many states are
 realizir~ the value of pig-club work
 as a means of materially improving
 rural conditions, according to club
 agents of the department. Not few
 of the bankers have made it possible for worthy club members to secure pigs on their personal notes. In this
 way well-bred pig is secured and the
 member can pay for it from the pro- ceeds of the pig as meat animal or
 from the sale of offspring in the case of a breeding animal. The member enters into business agreement (with the parents consent) with the banker and is in this way relieved of
 the stigma of charity, which is the re-
 suit when a pig is given outright. This
 arrangement is practical means of teaching business methods to the rural young people. It is also character building process, for it is but natural for a boy when treated as 9 man to act in manly manner.
 This apparent generosity on the
 part of the bankers is in many cases
 business acumen. A case in point is that of a Texas bank. The president of the bank placed 1926 pigs among
 the pig-club members of his county.
 As a result of the acquaintance made in securing and placing these pigs, many new patrons were secured. These patrons brought in over $75, ,00O in individual deposits. Needless to say this was a profitable business for the bank, but it is also 8 means that will increase with time in it's benefi- cial influence. One of the Texas pa-
 pers states that the banker "has laid the foundation for a prosperity which will be lasting. The boys that he has helped to get started in the hog busi- ness are now on their feet financially, and before many years they will be
 making big shipments of hogs to mar
 ket each year. The money received from the sale of hogs will be expended
 in further developing the county.
 Every merchant in the county will

Frocks that give the Empire line. are always becoming to little girls. This enc is essentially dainty. Both the founces and the blouse are cut with straight edges, consequently i, suits the bordered material shown here perfectly well, but it could of course be copied i'll any material if the edges arc suitably trimmed or finished. Tho f1ouncings this season are charminn and the dress made thereof always greatly sinlplihcs labor In this in stance, embroidered muslin is used and the muslin frock is essentially child-like and attractive, but if some thing more dressy were wanted lace could be substituted. The skirt is made in three sections that are joined one to the other. If silk frock is in demand, it would be pretty to use taffeta and to join the straight edges with corded or with piped seams, and to trim the front of the blouse with bands of narrow velvet ribbon. Rose color or pale blue taffe1a trcted il. this way would be essentially child like and at the same time se1viccablc Plain white voile would be very pretty with bands of narrow ribbon wi.h picot edges for ribbon is much used ct such cotton materials.
