SURE WAY TO GET
RID OF DANDRUFF

There is one sure way that
never fails to remove dandruff
completely and that is to dis
solve it. This destroys it entirely.
TO do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid
arvon; apply 1t at night when re-
firing: use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with
the finger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, OF
your dandruff will he gone, and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have,
You will find, too, that all itch
ing and digging of the scalp Will
stop instantly, and your hair VIII
be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, SILKY
and soft. and look and feel a
hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never
been known to fail. adv

CONSTRUCTION OF
ROADS is HALTED
Work on Highways Limited to Main
tenance-Decision Advised by
u. s. Highway Council.

MONTPELIER, July 2-The following
communication from the state highway
department, which is self -explanatory,
has been sent to all selectmen and road
The highway department is in receipt
of a communication from the United
States highway council (which council is
composed of representatives from differ
ent federal departments to which high
way questions requiring governmental
action may be submittedl advising as to
matters that may require governmental
approval and action necessary to be TAX
en- in order to obtain the required APP
proval, and that application to the coun-
ell must be made through, and approved
by, the state highway department. The
communication emphasizes the need of
conserving money, transportation, labor
and materials by restricting street and
highway work to the most essential
needs, and that the maintenance of ex-
isting streets and highways should rank
first in Importance. The communication
was submitted to the board of control,
and they are of that opinion:
First. That the maintenance and pa
troll of the highways should be looked
after as carefully as possible, so that
they may be kept in as good condition
as they are now.
Second That all highway improve
ment jobs, except such as are being car
ried out in conjunction with the federal
authorities, should be temporarily sus-
pended, as soon as conveniently can be
without injury to the work, until after
haying, and perhaps until after the
crops are harvested.
Third. That bridges for which state
aid is available ought to be constructed.
/ would request You give the above
very careful consideration in all future
arrangements for work supervised by
this department.
Very truly yours.

Kite Balloons Form Very
Important Part of Naval
and Military War Forces

"The observation balloon has been
one of the important discoveries of the
year." observes a writer in Aviation,
who continues:
ats value is indicated by the rapid
growth of both personnel and craft.
1t is found today on every front, and
almost every mile of that front, for the
excellent reason that it has proved in
dispensable to the modern army in the
field.
1.-THE observation kite balloon, as at
present used, was the invention of
Captain Won Sigsfeld and Major Won
Parseyal of the German army, and
the craft was constructed by the Par
seval Airship company. The British
army got its first idea of the kite bal
loon from the Beigians. Early in 1915
Squadron (now Wing) Commander
Maitland was so much impressed by
the excellent service it was giving the
Belgian artillery that he laid a pro-
posal for similar equipment before the
board of admiralty. This was adopt
ed, orders for the construction of the
craft were placed and the British K-B
made Its first appearance in the war
area in the early spring of 1915. 4fa7..
"As then constructed by the British,
the balloon was found to be consider
ably more reliable than the spherical.
being steadier and more airworthy,
and therefore more accurate in obser-
walton.
THE great success of the first craft
led to a demand for more, and the
British naval authorities made expert
ments with them on ships at sea-
More and more urgent grew the de-
mand from both branches of the serv-
| ice, until today kite balloons form an
important part of both naval and mil
| itary forces.
| 1.-THE work of these craft is too wide
| iy recognized to need repetition, fur
Their than to mention the danger to
J which captive balloon is exposed
from hostile airplanes. There is often
not time enough to draw the balloon
TO the ground when an enemy machine
| appears, and the only protection is q
friendly airplane, or the ever-ready
parachute"
