Tue jury further recommended that
since the removal of J. R. b. Sowell
was absolutely unwarranted and with
out foundation he be reinstated To
his former position OF captain.
The report urged placing drivers OF

FINDINGS ARE BASED ON
SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE

Our findings arc based only on tho
last mentioned class of testimony.
Numerous anonymous letters and phon
messages were received. One usually
throws such letters into Il waste bias
Ike: land turns a deaf ear to such in
formers.
III this investigation however We
have given due consideration TO all
such, but considered none as testi.-
mony. Anonymous letter writer's, good
citizens who wink at law violations and
timid jurors are aiding and ubetting
these lawbrcakcrS.
There is no greater fallacy than to
suppose or suspect that every police
man is an eVildocr. There are over
200 men on the force most Of whom
we believe are men good and true
The finger of accusation has been
pointed at but few.
MoSt OF these cases have grown out
OF violations OF laws regarding the
transportation or selling of liquor,
gambling and intoXicntion.

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever occur to you that. every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their cults as their chief
beauty? In fact. many are leading
ladies just because of their attractive
looks. Inquiry among them discloses
the fact that they bring out all the
natural beauty of their hair by care
tul shampooing, not with any soap
or makeshift, but with a simple mix
tIre by putting a teaspoonful of cam
throx (Which they get from the drug
Gist) in a cup of hot water and APP
plying this instead of soap. This full
cup of shampoo liquid is enough SO
it is easy To apply it 20 ell the hair
instead Of Just the top of the head.
After its use, the hair dries rapidly
with uniform color. DandruT, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear The hair is 50 fluffy that IL
looks much heavier than Il is its .usie
and softness are delightful.~-Adv

LYHURT

Bruce Williams, young druggist,
member of the firm of Williams Druf,
Company, and one of the most pro-
gressive among Crisp's young farmers
sustained injuries yesterday afternoon
at three o'clock on his farm that have
proven serious and thus far. have
given members of his family, his ply
sicians and friends no little concern.
In the barn the tonnage of peanut
vine hay had been increased until
until it appeared that blocking up
was necessary, and, while Mr.. Will
liams and some colored laborers on
the place were at this task. fully three
tons of the hay crashed through and
him beneath.
The colored laborers escaped and
their rapid removal of enough of the
hay to get him out possibly saved him
to his residence in town and immedi-
clan was called and he was brought
from immediate suffocation. A physi-
ate efforts made to ascertain them
jures. He is improved today, but is
not yet in such condition as to be
pronounced out of critical danger
Constant inquiries indicate the
deep concern in the community and
there is deep regret. Late indications
this afternoon are that he is improv-
ed slightly.
