You Can't Brush or
Wash Out DandruH

The only sure way to get rid OF
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon: apply it at night when retir-
ing; use enough to moisteH the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning.
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more APP
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better
You can get liquid arvou at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.

Labor Question Handled.
New York Jan. 24.-"Permanent
peace cannot be assured until the ma
tons of the world are placed on an
equal footing as far as labor is con-
cerned," said G. S. Beeby, minister of
labor for New South Wales. today
previous to his departure for England
to continue his investigation of condi-
lions.
He has been in the United States
three months, visiting San Francisco,
Portland, Ore, Denver. Chicago, Pitts
burgh, Philadelphia and other indus
trial trade centers.
Explaining the system in operation
in Australia, he said he believed it
could be made applicable here as well
as in European nations by building up
a system that will create better I'M
derstanding between capital and Ia
Dor.
The recognition of the fundamen-
tails of the eight-hour day, right to or
ganiZe, the settlement of industrial
disputes by conference and negotia-
ton instead of litigation, he advocates
as essentials in laying the foundation
of stable labor conditions.
THE splendid organizations you
have had during the war to control
the situation are now virtually disin-
tegrated and the industrial conditions
are more or less chaotic said .Beeby.
The adaptation of the Australian sys-
tenn to the United States, he believes,
will remedy this condition.
The Australian laws as effective, or
proposed, provide for:
Federal regulation of factory and
shop.
Industrial safety.
Workmen's compensation and acct
dent and social insurance.
A method of fixing the basic living
wage.
Control of child labor, apprentice
ship and vocational training.
Prescribing of the standard work
ing day.
These laws control all other mat
ters directly affecting employers and
Workmen'S relations.

EXPRESS RULES
TO CHANGED
AGENT C. 3. COLLIER TAKES
STEPS TO PUT NEW PACKING
REGULATIONS INTO EFFECT.

Steps have been taken by Agent
Collier in charge of the city express
office, to prepare for the new express
pa cking requirements. which go into
effect December 10. He has been adj
vising express shippers to study the
new rules, which have been approved
by the United States Railroad Admin
istra ton, so that they may be able
to adjust their packing methods to the
forthcoming new standards.
Under the new regulations which are
embodied in what is known technically
as Supplement No. to Express CLASH
fication No &c, all shipments sent by
express weighing over 25 pounds, must
be packed in wooden containers, or
cartons of fibre board, pup board. or
corrugated strawboard material. of
specified test strengths" This means
According to Agent Collier that after
December 10, packages over % pound
limit will not be accepted for forward
ing by the American Railway Express
Company, handling the express bust
ness of the entire country as agent
of the Railroad Administration, if only
paper wrapped. Nor will ordinary
paper boxes, wrapped or unwrapped.
be accepted as suitable protection for
these heavier shipments. The regula-
tions, however, do not effect shipments
under 25 pounds.
Regular shippers Agent Collier stat
ed, will not be mystified by the new
regulations, as they follow very close
" the packing requirements long in
vogue in the freight service. The E.x-
press regulations. however. allow a
little more latitude in the size of the
carton used. The enforcement of the
new rules was postponed until Deem
Der 10, SO that shippers would have
plenty of time to prepare themselves
for this change in express packing
standards
Agent Collier expressed the opinion
that these new rules win not work any
hardship on shippers, but should op-
crate distinctly in their interest. as
the rules viii provide additional safe
guards for merchandise in transit.
Moreover, they viii establish a uni
formity of express packing rules which
heretofore has been lacking. The new
order does not effect the movement
of food products by express, which
are ordinarily shipped in crates or
barrels.
1--WE believe" stated Agent Collier.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1919-11-07

There has been a similar congestion in
the local runs.
This has made it necessary for ex-
press shipments to be stacked. AS a
result. individual shipments have had
to be strongly enough packed to be
able to stand up for themselves, and
owing to the lack of uniformity in this
regard the new regulations We're form
ulated and finally approved by the
Railroad Administration. The stronger
containers required. we believe, will
very perceptIbly help to improve the
express service and to protect the mis-
cellaneous articles of merchandise
travelling through this channel from
damage or interference en- route.
An extensive educational campaign
is planned to explain to express ship
pers how the new requirements viii
operate in the various trades which

HERO YORK WILL
VISIT FLORIDA

The greatest hero in the late war
is Sergeant Alvin c. York, of Tennes-
see, who single handed and alone killed
and marched them in as prisoners.
Sergeant York is very much inter-
ested in the campaign for the sale of
the Red Cross Christmas Seals and is
vice chairman of the campaign in Ten
nessee. Those directing the work in
Florida have invited Sergeant York to
visit this state in the interest of the
work, and they feel assured that he
will do so sometime during the latter
part of this month Sergeant York
feels a deep interest in the movement
because he appreciates the work being
done against tuberculosis and his serv-
ices are free to make the drive which
takes place December lilo a success.
His name and fame is known in every
household in America and his popular
ity has been strengthened by his ex-
IRENE modesty. Should he come to
Florida and it seems now assured, it
will be a notable occasion.
Governor Roberts, of Tennessee, is
the chairman of that state, and he

in explaining the new regulations,
that the shipping public will welcome
the new standards when they unders
stand them, and the reason for putting
them into effect.
Never before in the history of the
country has the express traffic reached
such proportions as it has assumed to-
day. At the same time, there has
been mpara lively little increase in
the amount of car space available for
this business. We have been asked to
carry heavier shipments and commodi-
ties of every conceivable kind.
Before the war, it was possible for
car messengers to spread their freight
out on the floors of the express cars
without much congestion. Today I'VE

INSIDE HISTORY

JOHNNY JONES MAY HIRE A
PoRTER-HERVEY BUYS CIGAR
STAND-SW WE DISH NAVY is
CAPTURED-EATS.
(By Lucky


When the inside history of the Pen
sacola pilgrimage to Jacksonville is
made known in full it will be readily
understood why the Centennial work.
ers are confident this city has won.
For instance Eugene Roch, in a care
fully worded speech, told a group of
Jacksonville workers at the Seminole
hotel of the political aspects of the
case. The talk was listened to with
close attention by a group of Tampa
and Key West travelling men.
Charles B. Hervey asserts that re-
ports of his buying a cigar stand in
the East Coast metropolis are grossly
exaggerated. Every stenographer and
clerk in the hotel was wearing Pen
sacola badge before the Deep Water
citizens had been in town an hour.
John Frenkel sang Pensacola Town
to an appreciative audience and dis
posed of almost as many badges as
Mr.. Heryey. Johnny had a very salts
factory day but had to come home
with the crowd.
Dick McGrath, who manages the
local end of Wilson & Company's bust
ness is against the promiscuous rails
ing of hogs. Whenever Dick sees a
razorback he says There's a COM
petitor." Dick is an authority on
pep" and his speech in Drawing
Room "a" was magnificent.
The Swedish Navy was captured by
one of the newspapermen in the crowd
and the exploits of the battle were re-
lated to an astounded audience. Any
body who made the trip will furnish
further details.
Mister Bud Brown of N'Orleans may
get a new job. Bud supplied the eats
for the Pensacola bunch-after con-
siderable urging. Johnny Jones may
hire Bud but doesn't know what he
could use the smiling porter for.
Johnny split $3.50 with the porter for
drumming up gem men to be "breshed."
Ben Hancock and Felo McAllister
made out an injunction against the
State Commission demanding that
whatever is left OF the ten thousr nd
iron men appropriated by the 1919
legislature be turned over to the Pen
sacola Boosters.
DIR. Renshaw drew Lower both
ways and is celebrating as to whether
he should proceed against the r.. r.
company or Felo for staying awake
nights.
T. d. Tebault and Marco White were
initiated into the mysteries of ''Chey-
enne" dealing by F. NJ. Miller who
represented the Central Trades and
Labor Council at the meeting. In
Cheyenne, it is understood guests are
always invited to bring their own
guns.
Pretty ne rly all the pilgrims are
looking for a stranger from the car
ahead who left the train before reach
ing Jacksonville.
