MUST PAY LICENSE
FOR BOXING CONTEST

Carson Appeal: The purpose for
which a boxing contest is held in Ne
vada and the admission charged have
no effect on the payment of license
fee, according to an opinion given by
Deputy Attorney General Robert
Richards to the Las Vegas post of the
American Legion, and there Is no ex-
cape from the license.
There seems to be no escape" the
opinion states, from the provisions
of the act entitled: An act to re-
strict and license glove contests be-
tween man and man, and to repeal all
other acts in conflict Herewith as
amended, Stats. 1919, 50, since the
question submitted by you is an
swered by the text of the act itself.
namely, Any male person over the
age of twenty-one years may procure
a license for an exhibition in a pub
lie place for any contest or exhibition
with gloves between white men, This
squarely covers your statement. which
is that the post is planning on stag
ing a boxing exhibition in the near
future
you will note that 1t is immater-
ial whether or not an admission
charge Is to be made or whether or
not the proceeds are to be applied for
certain purpose. The situation
evolved is to be regretted but the
plain language Of the statute admits
Of no other construction.
"The same question arose from
Las Vegas about two years ago and
your district attorney there will be
able to enlighten you upon the ruling
made by me then. There being no
escape from the statute, I was COM
PEELED to abide by its terms as in this
letter set forth"

Sheehan has resigned as Nevada
member of the war finance corpora
tion committee for northern Cali
fornia and Nevada and L. Knowles,
viee-president of the Reno National
Bank, has been appointed in his
place.
Sheehan's resignation was made
necessary owing to his selection as
secretary and manager of the North
ern Nevada Loan Association. which
was organized here recently by prom
inent stockmen. 1t was impractical
for him to serve In both capacities,
hence the appointment of another
Nevada man.

WINTER RETURNS

Winter returned to this section of
Nevada last Sunday when snow COM
menced falling again. 1t continued
falling at intervals until Wednesday
night, but hardly made a showing on
the ground except in the hills and on
the mountains. There was a decided
drop in the temperature. although II
Is not thought much damage was
done to budding trees owing to the
backwardness of the growing season.
The snowfall is reported to have been
much heavier west of Eureka, w. Fl.
Russell reporting six inches of snow
at Austin last Wednesday morning.

BLIND GEORGE HALSTEAD
GIFTED IN MANY WAYS

Eureka friends Of George Halstead
of Duckwater VIII read with interest
the following tribute of praise ten
dered him In an article In the White
Pine News of recent date. The writ
er's view of Mr.. Halstead personally.
Of his afiiction and of the unusual
and remarkable gifts he possesses is
true to the letter, as friends here can
confirm:
George Halstead of Duckwater
spent few days meeting old friends
and renewing acquaintances at the
county seat last week.
Mr.. Halstead is not only . welcome
visitor and an affable guest. but is In
many ways as remarkable as he is
interesting. During his lifetime he
has suffered from the severe afliiction
Of total blindness While unable to
distinguish between the darkest hour
of the night and the bright rays of
the MONDAY sun, he travels about
without an escort and readily finds
business institutions without any aid
whatsoever. His visit to Ely this
week was the first in q period of
about eighteen months and when old
friends grasped him by the hand he
instantly called them by name, rec
ognizing them by the mere touch Of
the hand as quickly as one who pos
sessed keen eyesight would. He like
wise readily recognizes the voice Of
q friend and frequently when he
hears such q voice in . group he
walks directly to where his friend
may be and warmly greets him.
Another remarkable feature con-
cerning his IL that he can recognise
a horse or q dog by placing his hand
upon It and by his kindly manner,
which appeals 80 strongly to the hu-
man being, he likewise ingratiatel
himself with the animal. He has NO
fear of walking into corral with q
band of horses, some of which are
sometimes vicious. and as he speaks
kindly to them they will gather about
him, apparently Jealous Of his affec-
tion.
Through his wide circle Of friends
and his ability as an entertaining
conversationalist he keeps In Close
touch with the affairs Of the world
and ably discusses the questions oi
the day which concern the nation a
large. He Is master Of the type
writer and by this means communi
Gates with his friends as well a
transacting his business affairs, writ
ing letters and other instruments OF
the typewriter in such manner q.
to give them the appearance Of com
ing from the hand Of a professional
in that line.
The many accomplishments oi
George Halstead, suffering undel
such a severe handicap, serve rs al
object lesson to those who have beer
blessed with all their faculties.
BY the application of the sam,
amount Of energy many people whit
are not so handicapped could render
invaluable service to the world a
large as well as win for themselves I
place In the foremost ranks of men.

EASY TO DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
You Can Bring Back Color
and Lustre With Sage
Tea and Sulphur.

When you darken your hair witf
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one car
tell. because it's done so naturally
so evenly. Preparing this mixture
though. at home is mussy and trou-
blesome. At little cost you can buy
at any drug store the ready-to-use
preparation, improved by the add
ton of other ingredients called
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" You just dampen sponge
or soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. BY morning all
gray hair disappears, and, after an
other application or two. your hair
becomes beautifully k e n d
glossy and luxuriant.
Gray. faded hair. though no dis
grace, is a sign of old age, and as
we all desire a youthful and attrae-
tive appearance, get busy at once
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound and look years younger.
