league is such as the United States

whether il is susceptible Of amend

or whether it must be rejected al

find a single trace of dandruff or

will be after a few weeks use. when
you see new hair, fine and jowny

growing all over the scalp.

doubles the beauty OF your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle

it through your hair, taking one

Porters are few in Paris railway

unusual to see a colonel or two
wrestling with his own baggage side

than the porter and, usually lacking
any French, these Americans have
no easy time in getting out of one

Watch Cotton Seed
Demand for Oil Increasing and
Price Due to Advance

Mr.. e. w Dabbs, who has repre-
sented the South Carolina Farmers
on the committee that has made ScF-
eral trips to Washington to consult
with the authorities in reference to
the price of cotton seed and to en-
deavor, to find some means by which
the situation could be remedled and
a. market found for the thousands OF
tons of seed still in the hands Of farm
ers. received long distance message
Monday night that meeting woulc
be held in Washington for the pur-
pose of removing the stabiiizatiou reg
uIations on cotton seed products He
was asked for an expression of opin-
ion as to the advisab bility Of this action
He stated that if the removal Of the
regulations would have the effect Of
creating a market for cotton seed at
fair price he approved Of the action
contemplated, but if it was for tbs.
purpose Of depressing the price o..
seed he would not favor the change.
He was Informed that the demand for
cotton seed oil had become so strong
recently that the surplus on hand
WOULD SDo1I DE eAIldtSttU clIitt it'I f,ci
supplies would be called for. and
this being the case the price Of Oil
would advance and cotton seed should
share in the higher price.
No official advise is offered The
holders of cotton seed as to wha'
they had better do in the situation
but the fact that cotton seed OIL is
almost certain TO advance above tn,
stabilized price fixed by the food ad
miniStration in consequence OF the lie
nand the holders of seed who 5av'
waited SO long for a market shoulo
be cautious about accepting the tirs'
offers made for their seed after tht
regulated price has been abolished. oh
the basis Of oil prices. it Is said. seed
is worth more than the price hXec
heretofore-s6S for wagon seed ant
s71 for car lots-and with higher
price for oil. seed should go up.

Lack of Respect
Why Will So Many People Neg
lect to Show Proper and Due
Respect to The National
Anthem

Editor Daily Item:
AT the exercises Sunday and again
at the exercises Monday ! saw a great
many who did not pay the usual
proper respect TO the Star SpaDgled
Ranner The lack of paying this re-
spect can come but from two causes,
either ignorance or bad manners, SO
we must hope that it was from the
former cause. It is time that every
one in America should know. how
ever. that the Star Spangled Banner
is our national air, and that when 1t
is PLAYED that certain respect must
be paid to it by every one. In the
military world there arc regular rules
that cover the conduct Of the soldier
or sailor, from the very highest down
to the lowest. In the civic word GUS
tom is fixing the conduct of those
within hearing just as strongly. When
the national air is played everyone
should rise to his or her feet, and
should stand perfectly still and quiet
without moving or speaking. All men
should uncover their heads.
1t is to be hoped that i'm future eE-
eryone i'm every audience will pay TO
cur national air the Difference that Il
patriotic and well bred citizen should.
