been practicing law in Edgerton since
1913, has joined the law firm of Nolan
and Dougherty of GAINESVILLE, and will
enter into active partnership with this
law firm about June 1.-THE new firm to

ing law in GAINESVILLE since the early
eighties, and Mr.. Dougherty has prac-
ticed law for about twenty years, and
Nolan and Dougherty have been in
partnership during the last six years.
Mr.. Dougherty was recently appointed
u. S. district attorney. Mr.. Grubb
has as an attorney and as man and
citizen made hosts of friends in Edger
ton who wish him every possible sue
cess. He has pretty home here, and
for the present his family will continue
to make Edgerton their home. Mrs.
Grubb has been active in club and
church work since coming to Edgerton,
and she has frequently been called upon
to appear on programs at private and
public functions, as she is an accom-

make it easy and pleasant for Edger-
ton friends who live in the big suburb
on the Rock river to come and go.

"Tif1iS, to the Westerner with
haZy map notions OF the Near East,
is lost in a sea Of t's-Teheran, Ire
bizond and Tabriz-and he is likely
to tag it with the rest somewhere
east Of the B~osphorus' and let it go
the National Geographic Society.
But Tif1is has an individuality
that should set it apart from Persian
and Turkish towns. 1t is the capital
of Georgia-the hoary former king
dom of Georgia, which lies just to the
south of the Caucasus, and which
Russia absorbed in 1901 to mark for
a century her farthest advance
south.
A Metropolis of Cross Roads.
"Tifls has we'll over a third of a
million inhabitants, which makes it
a city bigger than Seattle or Kansas
City, slightly smaller than Minneap-
oils or New Orleans. And yet in a
sense it Is a crossroads community
--one Of the most important cross
roads in the world. 1t is midway
along the Trans-Caucasus railway
which extends between the Black
and Caspian seas, meeting the latter
at Baku, the great oil town of Asia.
And it is crossed by a north and
south post of military road which
pierccs the great rampant OF the
Caucasus 10 the north. Thus the
two main routes between southwes-
tern Asia and southeastern Europe
both pay tribute to Tiflis.
"As a result of this location Tifis
is the modern Babel. Seventy Ian
| guages are said to be spoken in its
| streets and bazars, and unless THIS
guides can wheedle and swear In at
lesat a dozen tongues they are USE
less. ArmenIans are n OF the larg-
| est alient factors in the population;
| and besides these the highways have
brought Russians, Persians, Turks,
Afghans, Tartars, Germans, and rep
resentatives of the more than a hun
dred tribes and nationalities that
have beers cast up on the reefs OF
the Caucasus in the thousands or
years which the racial tide has ebbed
and flowed in southeastern Asia.
The Worlds Most Beautiful Women
"And in addition to the aliens
there are of course the Georglans
themselves: the men big, stalwart'
well-built and armed to the teeth;
the women graceful, with finely cur
features and wonderful complex
ions. Both the men and women OF
Georgia are generally accepted by
travellers and students of human
types to be the handsomest branch
Of the white race. But handsome
as the men are tits far the beauty
of it's women that Georgia is famed
'They are a light-hearted, merry
folk, the Georgians, lovers OF feasts
and dancing and singing. Not map.
propriately, perhaps, Tiflis is a great
wine center, where is marketed the
heavy vintage from the vines that
grow to perfection on the Caucasus
foothills. And so it is hardly stretch-
ing a point to say that Tiflis is, IN q
not undesirable sense, a city OF
wine, women and song.
Everything About Tifiis Warm"
The name .Tifis' is derived from
a term meaning hot or warm town,

MIR. ROOT DECLINES

1t is to be regretted that Elihu Root finds 1t
impossible TO serve on the international court
of justice that is about to be formed. Mr.. Root
had a great deal to do with the formation OF
the court. He is acknowledged to be one Of the
greatest authorities on international law and his
international reputation makes him acceptable
to all the other interested countries.
Mr.. Root is a Republican, but he is a big
enough Republican not to let his partisanship
interfere with his good judgment. He is one
Of the few leaders In his party who has re-
manned consistent.
Some people seem to have forgotten that the
principals of the League of Nations, of which
the International court is a part, was first cham
pioned by the Republican party. Theodore
Roosevelt endorsed it as long ago as 1911. Sen
ator Lodge unreservedly committed himself to
it in 1915. Former President Taft, whose Re-
publicanism will not be questioned, worked FOR
the cause even after President Wilson made 1t a
part of his foreign policy.
Charles E. Hughes and Herbert Hoover both
of whom are now members of President Har-
ding's cabinet, were heartily in favor OF the
League of Nations and were among the famous
.hirty-one who signed the document pledgins
the acceptance of the league covenant with re-
seryations in the event of Mr.. Harding's cleo
ton, which document, by the way, caused thou
sands of Republican voters who thoroughly be-
Iieved in the League Of Nations to vote FOR tho
Republican candidate.
All of these men, however, have either be-
come opponents of the league or have lapseo
into silence. Elihu Root stands almost alone
among prominent Republicans who did not re-
nounce their own policy because it was taken up
by President Wilson.
It would be altogether fitting, therefore to
have Mr.. Root represent America in the inter-
national court. He feels that his age is against
him and therefore he has definitely declined.
The fact, however, that SO many OF the dele
gates, especially those from South America.
want him to serve is exceedingly flattering 10
him. 1t stamps him as one of the foremost
men of the world today.

TODAY

This is registration day. 1t is the only oppor-
tunity you have to register for the primary
election. The polls will be open until 10 o'clock
tonight. Those who voted at the regular cleo
ton last year are automatically carried over
for the primary this year and can vote at the
primary without registering this time. although
it will be necessary to register in person In order
TO vote at the general election.
The primaries are of the utmost Importance
1t is where the people select their candidates.
If the voters in both parties will see TO II that
the right men are nominated for Office it does
rot matter so much, as far as good government
is concerned, who Is elected. There may be a
difference in policy as to how the government
should be run, but with honest men IN ONCE
the people may be assured of honest govern
ment.
One of the most important things In connec-
ton with the coming primaries is to have men
nominated for office on both tickets who VIII
favor open specifications for paving contracts.
If the Republicans will name men for the Boaro
~ Ereeholders who will do all they can to pre-
vent the taxpayers money being squandered on
natent nayements and If the Democrats will do
likewise. we can be assured Of at least two men
on the next Board Of Freeholders who Will IN
sist on open specifications and competitive pio-
dingj There is no doubt that their eieclioh
would have a salutary effect on the hold-oVer
members and there might be an end to the
present wasteful methods.
Likewise, if the Republicans and Democrats
will nominate men for state senator ana the
assembly who will fight for a law whereby open
connection on all paving contracts is maze
obligatory there will be that much better chance
to get such a law passed.
1t is at the primaries where these nominations
are to be made. AS you will have to register IN
person, anyway, In order to vote at the general
election whether you are automatically register
cd for the primary or not, 1t might be a wise
thing to register today so as to make sure that
you are on the poll book.
Remember. there is no such thing as a reg
MAR or Independent candidate at the prl-
anary. A man has got to be in good standing In
his party in order to be a candidate for any OF
other within his party. 1t is for the rank ana
herr Of the party to decide which OF the men
running for the respective nominations they,
want for their regular candidates at the general
election.
If YOU are not certain about having voted last
year. or if YOU have moved into your dlstrlct
since the last election be sure to register to-day
Register anyhow, and get 1t over with.

YOUR HOME
By DIR. w. e. BARTON

my books show it. But my home is
not a part of my business assets.
Whatever happens to me. I want
a roof above the head of my family.
1 now own my home, free and clear.
1t Is a part of the joint earnings of
my wife and myself. I do not pro-
pose to put it in jeopardy. My home
belongs to my wife and children"
Would this be honest?
Yes, If it is done in a time when
the man is solvent, and has assumed
no obligations beyond his power to
pay. 1t would not be honest if he
waited until he was involved.
Assuming that the man is now
prosperous, and owns his home free
of debt, it is not only honest for him
to convey it to his wife, but it may
not be honest for him not to do so.
His wife and children are pre-
ferred creditors.
They have a right for protection.
1t may be the only way effective in
which he can protect them. He
ought to do it, .

Health Talks
ohhe Hair Healthy


Whether one approves or disap+.
proves of the present style. the c
remains that the bobbed-hair girl OF
today need not fear becoming balds
This for the simple reason thai
bobbed hair is more easily cared for
than long hair.
Short hair can be more thoroughly
washed, and dried with less trouble,
hence, women who have hobs" are
more apt to give their hair the care
il should receive-and SO they are
more apt t. have healthier hair.
The same reasoning Should apply
to men, who have worn short hair
for ages, and it would, were 1t moi
for the hats they wear. The stiff
derby hat is largely responsible for
badness among men. This because
it excludes free circulation of all
through the hair n II
presses upon and chokes the VENT
that supply blood to feed and nour!
ish the scalp.
If the woma of today adopted
the stiff derby hat in addition to
bobbed hair she could expect to be-
come bald, too.
The hair is greatly Influenced by
ones general health. Certain diets,
SUCH as OdlIllcdl dIlu rye piCdoS II
said to promote luxuriant growth OF
the hair. Massaging the scalp with
the finger tips is effective in produc-
ing a healthy condition If the hair.
Men should wash their hair once
a week and women not more thar
once every two weeks. Any pure
soap, such as CASTLE, is good. One
should be careful, however, to rinse
all the soapsuds out afterward.
Tincture of green soap is exceed
ingly good for shampoo. So are the
yolks of three eggs beaten up and
mixed thoroughly with a pint or half
a pint of lime water. Deep BRUSH
ing of the hair with a long bristled
| brush of sufficient stiffness to warm
the scalp but not to scratch it is a
good agent for stimulating the hair,
Under any condition. however,
there Is q normal shedding of the
hair. The sight of a few hairs on
the comb or brush need not alarm
anyone, for these are quickly re-
placed by new ones. The scalp
should be watched, however, to see
If the hair is thinning or whether
the scalp is becoming shiny.
The belief that too frequent washI
ing of the hair tends to dryness II
