DANDRUFF
LA CREOLE DOES THIS,
BEAUTlFIES YOUR HAIR,
GROWS NEW HAIR,
DARKENS GRAY
HAIR.

Dandruf, or little scales of dust
from the scalp and hair, causes
grayness, falling of the hair and
badness. Most So-called hair ton
les are too simple or not strong
enough to cleanse the scalp and hair
Of dandruff. and that's why you have
been disappointed. But La Creole
is different. Apply it freely to hair
and scalp and the scales or dan
druff will fall from your hair and
scalp in perfect showed, and after
drying your hair your head will feel
fine and dandy and your scalp will
be clean. Besides, if your hair is
prematurely gray or has a tendency
to grayness, La Creole will darken
it up naturally and cause thin hair
to grow thick an dfast. All drug

Strong Tone in
 Realty Market

GT1 HE tone of the Birmingham real
 N estate market is now strong and it is growing stronger. It would be strange were it otherwise.
 The school census showed a large increase in population and the mil lions of dollars of new capital pour ling into the Birmingham district means rapid development along in- dustrial lines and greatly augmented pay rolls. It means a demand for houses far beyond the supply.
 In 1914 Birmingham had been over- built. During a period of acute de- pression, covering two or three years, "For Rent" signs were more in evil dence than usual. There are no vacant
 houses today, and before the end of
 the present year Birmingham and it's envlr0nS Will have SerlouS housing problem, for while the war lasts little can be done in residence construction;
 but after the war there will be build ing boom the like of which this city has never witnessed.
 In the meanwhile prospective in lvestors in tenement property and prospective home builders will be
 looking for desirable sites. Every an-
 nouncement of an industrial plant to
 be built here adds intrinsically to the value of every foot of ground. Now l is the time to buy before values reach a higher level and prices begin to soar.
 If real estate agents with lots to sell have had to wait long for good times, they will have compensation enough in the active market just ahead

 T recall so vividly Rance's first ap- pearance in Birmingham. A tall, gawky youth got off the Louisville and Nash vile and proceeded up Twentieth-not
 on the sidewalk but in the middle or the street-gaping at the thousand wonders of the city. He was barefoot
 and his heels had cracks in them like the Assures in an 'over-ripe beet, and
 he wore an overcoat, although it was inid-August- But Rance had his good ] looks and winning ways even then and ] soon made a host of friends. They sug-
 gested to him the propriety of wearing socks and shoes. Rance didn't under stand, or would have none of 1t. So the friends had to slip up on him unawares | like, throw him down and tie him, and put the articles on him anyway. And just to think that now, after the lapse 7 of only few years, Rance has grown to be real fussy about his hosiery.

the best blood of the state has been shed for democracy-the beloved Mort Jordan and others have died in this worthy cause and the cruel truth Iof the war has been brought home to many families in the state.
 It is necessary that men die for an ideal and while we mourn for our young men who have paid the price of victory, and we shall endeavor to bear with patriotic fortitude much greater losses than we have yet en- dured, it is a sustaining thought that the soldier who dies for his country meets death in it's noblest form. It lis noteworthy that homes in Alabama that have been darkened by the loss of son and brother or father have shown sublimity of courage which makes weeping and lamentation seem undignified and of little moment. Mothers have accepted the hardest blow a mother heart can feel with such brave words as, My boy died as I would have him die-for liberty and America Young widows have faced the coming years strengthened by the knowledge that a hero has gone from them and assured that his sacrifice shall not be in vain.
 In time, Alabama's present honor roll in the war may seem brief com pared to the longer casualty lists yet to come. But we would not have north, or east or west give more than the south.

Creators of French
 School of Music

|Q TNT1L recent years the serious
 W student of music looked only to Germany for models. Other na- tions had given the world beautiful melody, and inspiration was found especially in the folk songs and dances of the smaller kingdoms of Europe, but the German classical |school was the one great fountain of musical art combining the esthetic with the intellectual.
 It is not so now. Both France and
 Italy have developed composers of the foremost rank. The modern
 French school is not only original in its fundamentals but it is informed by the national spirit and is permeated
 with melodic charm.
 The Christian Science Monitor dis cusses, in an Illuminating article, the rise of the French school since the Franco -Prussian war. "Thirty or forty years ago." says the Monitor,
 'it was rare to find people inclined to
 believe that France was capable of
 any musical invention; even in France
 one was constantly met with much |skepticism on venturing to suggest
 that she had once been musical na-
 tion and that there were strong and present reasons for believing that she
 was once more on the point of plac-
 ing herself in line with those nations
 for whom music of an exquisite order lis a natural form of artistic expres- sion. Today there is no room for lskepticism; in less than forty years
 France has become not only the scene | of marvellous musical florescence, but one of the countries which cxer-
 else the greatest influence in all that concerns that art"
 l After referring to certain brilliant ] French musicians of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the Monitor proceeds to examine the springs of
 action that have made for regenera-

Is Germany Learning
 Truth About the War?

JUDGING from the tone of the Ger 0 man press, public opinion in the fatherland is nc longer easy to placate. Whether it is the policy of the government to break the news of reverses gently to the German people or the frankly outspoken criticisms of certain newspapers are due to an in- creased boldness, it is impossible to say. As everyone knows, the German press is strictly controlled by the government and little, if anything, that does not meet with official sanc- tion is ever published.
 Not only are Berlin newspapers asking pointed questions. This seems to be the tendency in many of the :m- portant cities of the empire. The .so- cialist Vorwaerts of Berlin has ex- pressed it's opinions with remarkable freedom for months past and Vor- waerts is now firmly demanding the etruth about the war"
 The Deutches Zeitung, another in- fluential journal of Berlin, says, "The events between the Somme and the Avre constitute the first seri- ious defeat of the war;" Prince Henry of Prussia is taken to task For trying to make it appear that Ger many had won another victory, when Won Ludendorff had acknowledged failure. There is apparently much complaint throughout the empire to the effect that German officials are trying to deceive the people, some thing they have been doing quite suc- cessfully for the past four years, and on an unprecedented scale.
 While MT. Simonds, in his instruc- tive war articles, points out that the German retreat from the Soissons- Rheims pocket has probably reached its limit for the present, it is evident that Germany has had it's con fidence in the supreme command cen siderably shaken by Foch's success. German newspapers have dropped their arrogance in many cases and in stead of indulging in idle boasts, are devoting some attention to disagreea- ble facts.

LUKE M'LUKE SAYS

You will never find out whether a girl can sing or not by asking her mother.
 You should ask the neighbors. It hurts a man heap more to be thrown down by friend than 1t dooes to be held up by stranger. A man may not believe any of the tales you tell him, but he is always willing to swallow your cocktail Anyway, it Is some consolation to the corn fed girl who is getting more corn fed each day, to realize that she is mak- ing the most of herself. Why is it that the average man cant take day off without looking like he had taken year on? While railroad depot may be run on the level. ycu'll find that the window ot the information bureau will always stand inquiring into.
 Most women try to get what they want before they know what they want. And that goes for most men, too. What has become of the old fashioned man who used to pull his fingers tntii
 the knuckles cracked?
 Once upon time there was sport
 writer who wrote the story of football game without using the word husky.
 But he died. He was too original for
 this world.
