FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies Are
Using Recipe of Sage
Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and
lustre, or when it fades. turns gray
dull and lifeloss Is caused by lack
of sulphur in the hair. Our grand
mother made up a mixture of Sage
Tea and sulphur to keep her locks
dark and beautiful and thous nds
of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark
shade OF hair which is SO attractive,
use only this old-timc recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous
mixture improved by the addition Of
other INGREDIENTS by asking at any
drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
sage end sulphur Compound" which
dark ems the hair so naturally. so
evenly, that NOBODY can possibly
tell 1t has been applied. You Just
dampcn a sponge or soft brush with
IL and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time
By morning the gray hair disap-
pears: but what delights the ladies'
with WYeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound is that, besides beauti-
FULLY darkcning the hair after a few
applications. II also brings back
the gloss and lustre and gives 1t
an appearance of abundance.

been appointed by Governor Russell
as a member Of the board of trustees
of the state institutions of learning,
which include the University, M. S,
c. W., A and NJ, and the State
Normal.
Mrs. McNair is the first woman to
hold such a position, but Governor
Russell was most happy in his selec-
ton, as Mrs. McNair is a lady Of
broad culture, and is thoroughly ia
miliar with college and university
conditions.
Mrs. McNair, who was Miss Anna
Abbott, is a graduate of NJ. S. C. W..
and president of the Alumnae Asso-
citation. Her support of the M. S. c.
w., last year, when political influ-
ences were eontriving to limit its
powers, is gratefully recalled by
Columbians.

YEGGS BREAK in
CRAWFORD BANK
FINANCIAL INSTITUTION is
ROBBED SUNDAY.-GET
VERY LITTLE CASH
S12,OOO.OO IN BONDS
Stolen But Bonds Were Regis
tered.-RObbcrs Made Their
Getaway in Safety.-No
Trace of Them Yet.

Crawford, Miss, Feb. 28.--A check
up today showed that $4,000 in reg
istered Liberty bonds, $50 in cash and
am unknown amount of jewelry was
taken by yeggs who blew the door
to the safety deposit vault at the
Bank of Crawford early yesterday
morning, according to A. J. Erwin.
cashier of the bank.
Every box in the safety deposit
vault was ripped open and looted.
Quantities of silverware and .jewelry
were found on the floor. The $4,000
in bonds belonged to E. w. Hairston,
a local merchant, and as they are reg
istered, it is not believed that he will
suffer the loss.
No effort was made to enter e
huge steel safe that contained the
banks funds.
No trace of the yeggs has been
found. Suspicion attaches to four
strange men in an automobile who
arrived in Crawford late Saturday
afternoon, although it is probable
that they were merely tourists.

TO FORM AGGIE
CLUBS in COUNTY

Prof. /. B. Kerlen, of the A. and
M. College, will be here this week to
assist in recognizing the agricultur7
al clubs of the county.
In conjunction with the work Of
the county superintendent of educa-
ton, and that of the county demon
strator, these clubs did-gqod work for
the community last year, and the
prospects for greater achievements
this year are most promising.
The poultry campaign, launched by
the Chamber of Commerce, will be
stressed in the agricultural club
work. The beneficial result of poultry
raising has long been recognized in
other states, as supplementary adj
junct to the farm, as fascinating
phase of farm work, and successfully
pursued, as means of obtaining a
modest income.

BREEZY COMEDY
is LISTEN LESTER
Big Musical Comedy Success At
Opera House Thursday Night.

There's a brand new expression in
usage. "Lsten Lester" which fol
an entire year has gone the length
and bredth of New York, brought into
favor by John Cort's musical comedy
success of that name, which for a
year was the attraction at the Knick-
erbocker Theatre in New York, and
which now comes to the Columbus
Opera House for one night, Thursday
The uses of this expression are my
Rad be it as a preface to advice, good
or bad; to some remark which re-
quires, strict attention on the part Of
the listener; or simply as an excla-
nation. 1t was originated by Harry
L. Cort, George E. Stoddard and Har-
old Orlob, in the case Of this play Les
ter listens to any number Of people,
from the Arbutus Guilty, "live one
to the Daintiest and Danciest ,nf thu
chorus, including flip hotel clerk an
artfully lodging Colonel, female de-
tective and a pair of lovers, all Of
whom are bent ON search for some
letters which are of great importance
to certain parties. But Lester him
self is well worth paying attention
to for his conversation is snappy and
entertaining, his costuming gorgeous,
the crop of melodies he offers tune
full and catchy, and he brings with
him company of artists Of unmatch-
ed ability headed by Gus Shy and in
Guiding Joe Mack, Richard De Mar,
Lynton Athey, Katherine Robinson,
Lulu Swan, Jean Thomas, Cecil Will
Jams, Ethel Rea and the daintiest,
danciest chorus ever seen and Paul
Roscelli, Piano Accordion Virtuoso.

FARM LOAN ACT is
DECLARED VALID

Washington, D. c., Feb. 28.-The
Farm Loan Act, designed to assist the
agricultural development of the U. S.
by providing readily accessible credits
to farmers through Federal Land
Banks, was declared valid by the
Supreme Court today.
In an opinion which Commissioner
Charles E. Lobdell, of the Farm Loan
Board, declared "clears away every
legal question and removes every
shadow of question of the legality of
the banks or their bonds,' the court
held that Congress had full authority
to establish the land banks and the
correlative authority to exempt their
bonds from State taxation.

SUPERANNUATES

Rev. J. II. Bell, director of the
campaign for the creation of Super
Animate Endowment fund for retired
and worthy and needy preachers OF
the North Mississippi Conference
made a mastery appeal for funds fol-
the endowment at the morning service
of the First Methodist church in, this
city Sunday.
Rev. Bell presented the cause in q
forceful convincing manner and the
response was exceedingly gratifying,
more than a thousand dollars having
been raised at the meeting and this
amount is being materially augment
ed by bclated contributions.
The cause is one of the most
worthy that is receiving the attention
of the church today, making provisA
ion as is does for the comfort and
sustenance of the ministers of the
faith who devote their entire lives
to the promotion Of the cause of the
Kingdom, and who, unfortunately, in
the evening Of life are without means
of support.
In all sections of the North Missis-
sippi Conference Rev. Bell has met
with cordial response and he is max
ing exceedingly satisfactory progress
considering the stress of the times.
He was especially gratified at the re-
Spouse to his appeal Sunday morning
