A crew OF wOrkmen have Just
completed the installation Of n
signal bell at the Holly Elevator

danger at that point. This is an
especially bad crossing, due to the
fact that an approaching train is
usually hidden by cars on each side

manner that all the mothers look and
nudge ole another and then whisper
out loud, who is that?"
But 1t didn't seem to affect the good
looking man in question at all. The
reason being. perhaps, that he had
as his companion one of the prettiest
girls of the Country club and was en-
tirely oblivious to anything and every
thing going on around him. (Note:

To Keep Straightest,
Unruliest Hair in Curl

The straightest, contrariest hair can be
kept in curl, even in the hottest or damp
est weather, by such simple and harmless
means, that the use of the drying. SINCE
ing, bIistering curling iron is altogether
inexcusable. One need only get a few
ounces of plain liquid siImerine from the
druggist and apply little to the hair
before doing it up. The result is quite
remarkable. The hair is delightfully."-
wayy and beautifully glossy. without be.
streaked. The effect lasts very much
longer than where curriers' alone or wav-
ing irons are used.
The silmerine is best put on with a
clean tooth brush, drawing this through
the hair from crown to tip, preferably
after dividing 1t into strands. The applf-
cation seems to gradually improve the
texture and health Of the hair.-Adv.

The following communication from
the Council was read and upon mo-
ton was placed on file.
Wherein it has been found that
the Outgoing School Board for the
year 1920-21 did exceed the Coun.
ell Levy for School purposes by APP
100000 and wherein
there is still unpaid teachers salar-
les and other school expenses for
that period of about 100000 that
such indebtedness incurred was ille-
gal and invalid said School Board
having no power, right or authority
to contract such debts.
lit being also found that the pre-
sent valuation of personal and real
as made by Assessor H. C. |
Koenig for the present year will be
S150,0o0.00 less than that of last
year, which will reduce the taxable
income of the City by $4,000 over
that of preceding year.
It has also been ascertained by
the Council that the Local Banks of
are unable to loan money
to the City either for School pur-
pose or use in the General Fund at
