Election Officials Will Receive Their Final Instructions This Evening Anniversary Mass for Rev. H. r. WaISIn-Othcr News Notes.

During a talk last night among a number of prominent citizens it was remarked that if there be change from republican to democrat in the office of sclectman there will be good chance for the victor in the election to put himself in strong" with the general public by doing something in the matter of forcing proprictOrs of stores in the center to keep tho places in back of the stores cleaner than they are at the present time.
 Although there are no rules govern ing the removal of garbage it is con- sdered that the storekeepers can bring about conditions which will ap- proach sanitation by a dsContinu- ance of the practice of throwing papers. boxes, decayed fruits and vegetables, etc. in the back yards.
 The seleCtmen and the health officer experienced a lot of trouble about this question several months ago when certain store owners made d practice, of throwing decayed fruits in back of their stores and even out in the street in front of the stores where automobiles pass all the time and traffic is very heavy.

Plans to Make U. $. Navy Greatest
 in World by 1925

Washington, Dec. 10.-Recom- mendations of the navy general board for the building program for 1921 include two battleships, one battle cruiser, 10 scout cruisers, five destroyer sflotilla leaders and six submarines.
 "The navy of the United States should ultimately be equal to the most powerful maintained by any other nation of the world" not later than 1925, the report adds.
 The statement of policy as to the ultiamte strength of the navy and the time when it should be achieved is reiteration of the boards position as carried in it's report to Secretary Daniels each year since 1915. 5
 Contrary to his custom for the last few years. MT. Daniels did not make public the boards recon- mendations when his own annual report was released, although It was attached to that document as it went to the president. MT. Dan- iels did not himself recommend any building program, withhold ing this for later presentation.

AN OLD RECIPE
 TO DARkEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns Gray. Faded Hair Dark
 and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphurs properly compounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and trou- blesome.
 Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients at very little cost. Everybody uses this prep aration now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so natur- ally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this thru your hair, talk ing one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disap- pears, and after another applica- tion or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark. thick and glossy and you look years younger.
 Adv,
