Dandruff Surely
 Destroys The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't.
 It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve 1t, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when re- tiring; use enough to noisten 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.
 You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails, /

any one can do. Later on study
class in this work may be organized

demand for surgical dressings is so
great that the chairman feels we

To Mr.. and Mrs. S. T. Sistrunk:
The colored people of this city are
in deep sympathy with you in the loss
of your beloved son, Mr.. LAGRANGE

was one of the most manly young
men of this county. He was highly
esteemed by all the colored people
that knew him best. We pray Gods
upon you, and we trust
that he will send from heaven his
angels to comfort you in
your bereavement and that you will
decide in your mind that God giveth,
and God taketh, blessed be the name
IF the Lord.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in your home
Which never can be filled.

The boon his love had given.

ROUSED BY THE

the Government for It's
Incompetence
(Associated Press)

London, July 9.-The morning pap
ers subordinate everything to Satur-
days air raid, most of them taking
the government severely to task for
what they term inadequate prepara-
tions against raids. The incident is
described by the most angry COM
mentators as disgraceful alike to the
war and navy department and the re-
moval of those responsible for the
miserable display of Incompetence"
is demanded.
Victims of the raid hover about the
smouldering ruins of their houses in
search of mementos of their homes.
The worst sufferers are the wives and
children of men at the front, with no
means of re-establishing themselves.

SUNDAY, IN THE
METHODIST CHURCH

Services well attended, some visit
ors and strangers being present. A
special prayer was made for the sor-
rowing and the sick of our city.
DR.. Gross commented on the 21st
chapter of John, choosing for his text
the Masters words to Peter, Lowest
thou me more than these?" He at
tributed our failure in life to our lack
of knowledge in casting (as did the
disciples)N our net on the wrong side
of the ship. We must listen to his
directions and follow them if we
would be successful. Jesus was an
altruist, he knew how and he still
stands ready to reveal to his follow
ers Gods plans for US if we will re-
spond. Gods law is the law of love;
if we love Him as we should, there
will be nothing lacking. God should
be first. Matt. 6-33. We are ever too
ready to run after other things, our
church and Gods work being only
secondary. Do we love God more
than these ?-self, friends, ambition,
fame, etc |? Another thought, as is in
all of Christ's ministry, was his
thoughtfulness of others, his utter
unselfishness. Knowing his disciples
fatigue, he had prepared some food
for them and in verse 10, he recog
nizes the need of their services.
DR.. Gross in applying the text
pleaded that we love God with our
whole heart, better than all else be-
side. That we love him with our will,
our intellect and our sensibilities. Let
him have all our time and on his altar
lay our sacrifice, if we would find the
blessing which he has promised to
those who love him.
DIR. Gross selected for his evening
text Isa. 42-3. Among other splendid
thoughts, charging on Gods mercy
to US. His plan that none should be
lost and our help in the salvation of
those weaker ones, whom he would
father in that day when he makes up
his jewels. r.
