officials express confidence in their
ability to turn loose the other half
of the million by July 81, when their
year ends.
However, they say that a million
a year is far from the ultimate in
motor sar manufacturing and that
with the completion of the blast fur
naces and body plants which Ford is
now building in Detroit, the yearly
output capacity is bound to assume
larger dimensions. The present
capacity is 100000.
"The blast furnace project will en-
able the Ford Company to make Ford
parts direct from the iron ore instead
of buying the iron ingots and then
melting them before making into
parls. At the present time there are
approximately $4,000 men engaged
at the blast furnaces and in the new
body plant But it is quite probable
that number will be more than dou-
bled once the steel mills-which will
be the largest in America-begin to
operate. Ford men do not attempt
to place any estimate on what the
production of cars will be in the fu-
ture, but point to the fact that they
have not been able to supply the de-
mand for the past ten years and that
at the present time there are some
100000 untitled orders on file"

Hair Deadened By
:. Using Poor Shampoos

You cannot exercise too much care
in selecting a shampoo. Poorly pre-
pared mixtures, shampoos, pastes and
emulsions containing an excess Or
alkal deadens the hair, takes away
ITS life and lustre and in many in
stances causes it to turn white Shu
co Shampoo is a perfect saponifca-
ton of blend of the highest refined
cocoanut and palm oils suspended in
a solution just right to give health,
vigor and lustre to the hair.
Two or three teaspoonfuls applied
to the wetted hair and rubbed brisk
ly will at once change into sparkl-
ing, creamy, bubbling bushel of la
ther which vanishes at once all dir,
and dust rids the scalp of dandruf'
and leaves the hair lustrous, soft,
wavy and brilliant. Your mirror will
tell you why Shuco Shampoo makes
hair with thousand lights. At all
drug stores. adv

A Shampoo That VIII
Not Harm The Hair

Just as a cheap and strong soap
draws and burns the skin, cheap
shampoos, pastes and emulsions con-
tain an excess of alkali and draw and
burn the hair, causing it to lose its
color and life. If you are not careful
in selecting preparations with which
to wash the hair it is liable to suffer
an injury.
Shuco Shampoo is prepared from
the highest quality of cocoanut and
palm oils perfectly saponifed and sus-
pended in a perfect solution that when
applied to the hair two or three tea
spoonful and rubbed briskly at once
makes a bushel of creamy, rich, bub-
bling and sparkling lather. Before
it all dirt vanishes, leaving the scalp
nd hair perfectly clean, lustrous, bril-
liant and soft as silk. Your mirror
will tell you why Shuco Shampoo
makes hair with thousand lights. At
all drug stores. adv

Rain Keeps Delaying
County Road Paving

at looks like the elements are de-
termined that we shall lay no paw
ing on the county roads,, said John
B. Ansley, county superintendent, to-
day. 1--WE started hauling crushed
rock out onto the Dixie Highway pro
ject last Thursday, and before we had
gotten more than 10 or II tons haul
ed it began raining and stopped US.
We started again Monday, and when
about the 10th ton arrived on the
ground the rain started falling. The
result was that the big trucks got
stuck on the slick clay before they
could get unloaded and out, and we
hade to resort to mules to rescue
them. But maybe the rain will let up
some of these days long enough for
US to get a start.
