FIRST DIVISION LEAVES
RHINE ON WAY TO U. S.

The American First Division, the
first to land in France and the last to
leave, began leaving the Rhine last
Friday on their way to Brest. Two
Medina boys Faye Fenton and Andrew
Long are members of this division
which has been in German territory
for eight months. They sail from
Brest, today, August 20.
The First division, nearly all MEM
bers of which wear four service
stripes, is bound for Camp Pike, Ar
kansas, although it is believed the
Medina boys will be separated from
their division at New York and sent
to Camp Sherman for their discharge.

DEALERS TESTIFY IN
COUNTY FOOD PROBE
One Merchant AT First Refuses But
Changes His Mind.

Retailers in the grocery and meat
lines of Medina We're called before
County Prosecutor Slime and At
torney Smoyer last Friday afternoon
and questioned as to the methods
they use and the profits charged. Most
Of the men called responded cheer
fully and took their invoices for goods
bought along with them. '- ''t
One Medina merchant, however,
went up in the air, so as to speak,
and refused absolutely to lend his
presence or answer any questions
whatever. After considering his de-
ciison, however, he suddenly saw a
light to the effect that grand jury
summons was inevitable and has
tened to inform probe officials that
he was ready to answer anything they
might wish to know. He was to have
been given an opportunity to testify
this week.
Following the taking of testimony
in Medina, Smoyer went to Wads-
worth where he took similar action.
The investigation will probably end
this week and a report submitted to
the grand jury at the September
term Of court.
While nothing will be given out un-
til the grand jury meets the report
is certain to contain several recon-
mendations for change in selling
methods. For instance, in the early
spring when tomatoes are high priced,
some retailers have been in the habit
Of buying Al quality, and smaller
quantity of seconds at a reduction of
from four to eight cents pound. The
two lots are then dumped together
and sold at price sufficient to justify
getting the Al quality.

In substantiating his view of the
matter Mr.. Ingersoll declared the

offered, however, to cooperate in any
way city officials might wish to reduce

Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest Spice, of

SUMMIT COUNTY FIXES MILK
PRICE FOR SEPTEMBER

Distributors of milk in Summit
county met with producers at Akron
this week to fix price to be paid for
milk for the month of September.
Distributors offered $3.70 per hun
dred pounds, while producers wanted
$3.50. The matter was put up to DR..
Clyde King, of Baltimore, who is ex-
pected to decide sometime this week
on the exact price.
Many milk producers in the south
ern and eastern parts of Medina coun-
ty have been shipping their milk to
Akron, and it is stated that since the
recent Indictment of milk producers
by the Cuyahoga county grand jury,
the amount shipped to Akron has
steadily increased.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL

REMEDY FOR CONGESTION

Immediate steps for the acquisition
of site on which to construct new
high school at the earliest possible
date in the section north of Florida
avenue near or on North Capitol
street. were urged by the North Cap
itol and lexington Citizens Associa-
ton last night at a meeting in En-
cry School. The equalization adopt
ed a resolution calling for immediate
action by the board of education
looking to lessening of congestion in
the high schools of the city by the
building of high school in that ter
ritory Copies of the resolution were
forwarded today to the board of ed
ucation.
Basing its plea for school in the
North Capitol and lexington section
on the ground that this section is
the only one now calculated to meet
the congestion problem by construc-
ton of a new school, the resolution
goes at length into reasons why the
high schools within the next two or
three years, at the present rate OF
increased enrolment per year, will
ne wholly unable to handle the pupils
More Room, February's Need.
"In February, 1919. the resolution
saws. 1.-The enrolment of the white
high schools passed $3.50 and was
within 200 of the stated capacity OF
the five schools, Central being 1uil
and the four others having only
small margins. From eighth-grade
promotion figures it appears that
these margins will be hlleo IN sep
tember. For increases next Feoru
ary and later additional room wiz
have to be found

ter is speedily adjusted 1t can harolS

tember, 1922. 1t will substitute d
500 pupil building for a 500 pupil
building. The increase in high school
enrolment before the war averaged
: or 6 per cent a year. The three
years 1882 should therefore pro.
duce normally an increase of at least
900 pupils. But during the war the
high schools were set back by nearly
two years growth, which will douot-
less be made up. together with some
extra increase due to the recent ao-
normal growth of the city. so that an
increase of perhaps 1.500 pupils in the
total white high school enrolment IS
to be looked for between next Sep
tember and September. 1922. the
bearing of this increase on the several
schools can be approximately stated
as follows:
"Of a 1,500 increase for the city,
a bout 500 would probably fall on the
two vocational high schools. Business
and Mckinley, whose courses continue
to be popular. On the opening OF the
new Eastern a good many pupils
(possibly even 500. as the number
now attending Business and Mck1n-
.ey from the eastern part of the city
is quite large) would doubtless be d.
yerted to the vocational courses
planned for the new Eastern.

To Acquire Curly Hair
in a Single Night

Hair tortured with the hot curling iron
Is bound to become dry. harsh and brittle.
as so many know from sad experience.
It's far more sensible to use plain liquid
silmerine, which can do no harm and which
produces a curliness much prettier and
more natural in appearance. This has the
peculiar property of drying in the most
beautiful waves and creases inagina BILE.
It is also fne dressing for the hair. pre-
serving its texture and health. keeping it
delightfully."- soft and glossy. few ounces
from the druggist will last for weeks, SO
it is not at all expensive.
Liquid silmerine is not sticky or greasy
and it won't stain streak hair or scalp.
A convenient way to use it is to pour
little into a saucer and then with a clean
toothbrush apply evenly to the hair from
root to tip. If this is done before retiring
tho added glory to ones ''crowning glory"
will be quite in evidence in the morning
The hair will be nice and fluffy when
combed out.-Advertisement.
