PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS
ARE TEMPORARILY STOPPED
Major MaIIet Orders State
Boards to Wait for New
Instructions

Acting on instructions from Provost
Marshal General Crowder, the selective
service law officer for Georgia, Major
Joel b. Mallet, Saturday ordered all
local boards in Georgia Immediately to
discontinue physical examination of
registrants until further notice.
The step was taken because of the
fact that an entire modification of the
rules governing physical examinations
has been made. The new regulations are
now on their way to Major Mallet and,
until they are received, no eXamina-
lions will be made in Georgia. Men or
dered to report next week are notified
that they need not report until later
date.
The new regulations so modify the
physical requirements that it is eX-
pected very large per cent of the men
In class one will be available for serv-
ice. Men with minor physical disabili-
ties, which ordinarily would be suf-
hcient to disqualify, will be put in the
noncombatant branches of service,
thereby releasing more able-bodied men
for lighting duty.
1t is expected that all men who al
ready have been pronounced physically
deficient will be re-eXamined under the
new regulations unless their disabili-
ties were of very serious ma ture.

FEW CENTS DESTROYS
YOUR DANDRUFF AND
STOPS FALLING HAIR
Save your hair! Make it
thick, wavy and beauti-
fuI-try this!

Thin, brittle. colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruf-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
Of its lustre, its strength and it's very
life; eventually producing a feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die-then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderine
tonight-now-any time-will surely
save your hair.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or toilet
counter and after the first application
your hair will take on that life, lustre
and luxuriance which is so beautiful.
1T will become wavy and fluffy and have
the appearance Of abundance, an in
comparable gloss and softness; but what
Will please you most will be after just
a few weeks use, when you will actually
see a lot of fine, downy hair-new hair
growing all over the scalp.-(Advt-)
