Ne VS. OF ENSLEY

Prospects are bright for the organ
ization of an Ensley company of the
new Alabama national guard at the
meeting tonight to be held at o'clock
at the Elks home. Captain Ira d.
Davis, who has the organization of
the company in charge, stated last
night that sufficient applications mad
been received to almost make up the
full quota of the company and that the
outlook for its immediate formation
was very promising.
CAPTAIN Davis requests all those who
have made application and all those
interested, the public included, to be
promptly on hand tonight at the Elks
home in order that as little delay as
possible in the organization ana
equipping of the company. He espe-
cially requests all those who have had
previous military training to be pres

FairfieLd's Citizens Are
Eager to Be in NetU County
Unless New County Cuts Them Off From Birmingham
They Claim Their Fate Will Soon Be Like That of

and get into il unless we are traded off
by politicians at the last minute. Pet
tus county will be the salvation Of Fair
fields Individuality, and there's no rea-
son why we should be deprived of this
means of salvation"
Charles A. Buck, pioneer business
man of Fairfield, said: I'VE want to be
in Pettus county The statement that it
will be inconvenient for Fairfield people
to attend court in Bessemer is erroneous,
as we have to go both there and Bir-
mingham, and with the new Tidewater
line completed between Fairfield and Bes-
semer it will be even more pleasant to
ride through woodlands to Bessemer
than through dusty streets to Birmnig-
ham. Too, Fairfield is not lacking in it's
quota of automobiles"
Ruffin A. Smith, vice president of the
Fairfield Land Company, said: While
I'm a poor politician, L have faith enough
in the proposed new Pettus county to
believe that Fairfield will gain materially
by getting into it. Our city will get a
great deal more out of Pettus county
than it can possibly get out of Jeffer-
son."
George Boyd, Jr., Fairfields enthu-
siastic city clerk, said: 1--WE are gonna
have it,
Twenty or more prominent citizens of
Fairfield will leave for Montgomery early
Wednesday morning to show to the leg
islature how they feel on the question.

New Way to Curl Hair
Fine for Outdoor Girl

The silmerine method of curling the hair
is the proper thing before going motoring
boating or golfing. indulging in any out
door sport or exercise. This will not only
give the hair the most beautiful wavy and
curly appearance imaginable, but wind or
heat will not take the curl out. The curli-
ness is quickly acquired and lasts much
longer than where the waving tongs are
used. Besides. the hair will be bright and
Iustrous, instead of dull and dead looking.
When combed out it will be nice and
fluffy as il it had just been shampooed.
Just get a bottle of liquid silmerine at
any drug store, follow the accompanying
direc tions, and you will be simply delighted
with the result This product is Of course
perfectly harmless and there is nothing
) ticky, greasy unpleasant about it.

With CAL0TABS
The Nausealess CalomeI Tablet
That Does the Work Without
the Slightest Unpleasant
ness.

You have always thought of calomel
as the best and surest medicine in the
world, but too nauseating for you to
take. That was the old-style calomel.
Now science has robbed calomel of it's
unpleasant qualities, without detract-
ing in the slightest from it's liver
cleansing and system purifying effects.
The next time you are bilious of con-
stipated ask for Calotabs. Sold only in
original, sealed packages. Price thirty
five cents. One tablet at bedtime with
a swallow of water-thats all. No
salts. no taste, no gripping, no nausea.
You wake up in the morning feeling
fine, your liver active your system
purified, and with a hearty appetite
for breakfast. Your money back at any
drug store if you are not perfectly de-
lighted with Calotabs.--Adv.

A Special Word About
Our President, MIR.
w r.. Pruitt

Mr. w. R. Pruitt, a man with a sue
cessful oil record behind him. After
travelling through the oil states for
several years, and becoming familiar
with the business through close con-
tact with it's every phase. from leases
to refining, decided to enter the oil
business. He did in a small way, and
has been successful almost from the
start, operating as a syndicate he was
very fortunate in abating several
leases which increased in value very
rapidly and when he sold out he
cleared for every man which had as
sisted him financially. $1750.oo for
each 500 invested.
He later organized in the Brown
wood field and developed that field,
and in a very short time. he Melted
each investor s125o.00 on tn 500 in
vested.
Being so successful in these under
takings, he decided to organize
company that would rival any COM
pnay in the oil fields. Realizing that
the law of averages is bound to win
he organized the Doughboy Oil Co..
amassed seventeen tracts of land, in
as many fields aggregating over
5000 acres. In this company he is
meeting with such success that he is
sure to realize his fondest hopes. his
ambition assures the success of the
Doughboy Oil Co. A man with his
ambition is sure to succeed in any
walk of life.
If you want a watch repaired you
will take it to jeweler. If you want
pair of half soles. you will go to
shoe maker If you have a case in
court you will go to a lawyer Che will
probably get you in worse, but you
will go to him jyst the same). be-
cause that is his business. The same
is true in the oil business. If you
want oil so to an oil man that knows
how to get it and market it after he
gets it. Our president is that man.
