Anyone NouU Can Haze

Hair tortured with the hot curling iron
is bound to become dry harsh and
brittle, as so many know from sad ex.
perience. It's far more sensible to use
the simple Silmerine method, which can
do no harm and which produces a curIi-

appearance. And the effect lasts much
longer particularly in hot moist or windy
weather. Silmerine is also a fine dress
ing for the hair. preserving its texture
and health, keeping 1t delightfully."- soft
and glossy.
Liquid Silmerine is not sticky or greasy
and ii won't stain or streak hair or
scalp. Get few ounces from the drug
gist, pour a little into a saucer ana
with clean tooth brush apply evenly
to the hair just before doing it up The
added glory, of your browning glory
will be quite remarkable.

THE CLEANUP SEASON

This is the season when pleas are made
in many cities and towns for cleanup and
"paint-up'' campaigns The pleas are all
right so far as they go. Campaigns. even
of brief periods, are helpful; they have real
values when they are extended to cover needs.

PUT THE GAME WARDENs BACK

Thoughtful people are deeply interested in
protecting and propagating game and fish
Bt all seasons under an effective conservation
plan. How it can or will be done if the
wardens are dismissed during period when
they are most needed and how there will
be full crew of wardens in the fall if the
hunters licenses by the thousands of dollars
are to be dumped into the general fund it
is not easy to perceive.
It is therefore a duty of conservationists
to exercise their efforts and influence for
proper game and fish protection, though an
Important part of the conservation law be
declared invalid. Many of them will do so.
Many do not and never did need a restrain
ing force from game wardens to that end.
There are, however. thousands of persons
who are prevented from depicting game and
4ish during their breeding periods only
through the efforts of wardens. When war
dens are removed and thousands of dollars,
accumulated from licenses and fines, are
spent by the general fund. instead of for the
purpose originally intended by those paying
the money, what progress may be made
through voluntary observance of a practical
and productive principle, while commendable,

CANDIDATES AND HEALTH

Any political slaps at the administration
of public health in this community, city and
county, lose their sting when the public rec
ord is reviewed. 1t is shown by the results
and by the testimony of disinterested persons
eminent IN health matters that the city OF
Birmingham and Jefferson county have been
especially favored in the manner in which
the public health has been safeguarded and
public health protection advanced. No po-
litieal aspirant can lose either votes or pres
tige by letting it be known in no equivocal
manner that he is unreservedly committed to
Ne advancement of the public health. If the
ruling bodies of city and county had been
uniformly enlightened the health situation
would be much better than it is now.
In stating his position in favor of the
fullest possible cooperation with public
health forces no candidate is FORGETTING one
whit of his official independence or right to
consider on its merits every such question as
it comes up. But the public has a right to
know where he stands on this as well as on
other questions of first Importance. To be
sure. the health work in this locality could
not have attained its present status had the
governing bodies not made such appropria-
fions as have been made; but it is likewise
true that less intelligent administration of
health activities would also have greatly re-
duced the beneficial results. Birmingham
and jefferson county have not been particu-
l6rly liberal in their appropriations, but the
Manner in which the funds have been admin
istered has been exceptional, so that the PEG
pie have received more dollar for dollar than
have other communities less efficiently
served by their health bodies.
In spite Of this progress, there is still
much to be done, and there must be assur-
ance beforehand from the candidates that
they will not permit the work to halt, but
that they will. encourage it in every manner
consistent with their means and the legiti-
mate claims of other public requirements.
anyone who shrinks from giving such as
surance at sonce arouses wonder as to the
reason for such attitude
