Clothed only in his bathing suit
and his nice new straw hat,
"Bill" Van Hoy gave an unad-
vertised diving exhibition last
Sunday from the back Of an auto
that had more thrill in it than
pleasure-for Bill. The location
was near the old McGlothlen
place and TIE car was Don Bur-
gels runabout. They had left the
McGlothlen place where they had
been in bathing, with Bill on the
Jump" seat Of the runabout.
The car was doing about 30 when
Don decided to make a turn to
another road. He forgot to broad
cast his intention to Bill and the
latter failed to make the turn
with the Oar, going straight
ahead and landing on his ear in
big sage bush. The fall bruised
his shoulder, knocked the wind
out of him and badly mashed that
good old straw hat. Bill says he
lis off the dry land diving"

In this age of the king Tut
bob, the straight bob and the
single bob, when even the wo-
men are flocking to the barber
shops, the sanitation Of them
should receive especial attention,
DR.. Paul A. Turner, Director of
the State Department of Health,
points out. Women are much
more inclined to notice matters
of cleanliness and if any BARRIERS
are not living up to the state re-
gulations, they may find their
patrons falling off, DR.. Turner
warns.
Certain diseases of the skin
may be contracted from the use
of Instruments and towels which
have not been properly steri-
lized. The "barber's itch" and
favus, a disease of the hair it.
self which causes the hair to fall,
are perhaps among the more COM
mon diseases Of the barber shop.
Diseases contracted in these
places are transmitted direct.
Ring worm, scabies, and sores of
different kinds are among the
most prevalent of the skin di-
seases.
If you go to a barber to have
your hair cut or to be shaved, do
you know that the state law re-
quires that the hands of the bar
Der be washed with soap and
water before serving each GUS
toner? Do you know that brushes
and mugs shall be frequently
cleaned with soap and water and
chat shaving brushes and mugs
shall be thoroughly rinsed after
each use thereof? Do you know
that there shall be a separate
towel for each customer and that
the head-rest shall be covered
with a clean towel or paper? If
your barber does not comply
with these regulations, insist that
he do 80.

AnnistOn City Election Will Be Held On
 August II
tAnniston Bureau)

ANNISTON, Ala, Aug. 5.-Elec- tion officials for the city democratic primary election, which is to be held on Monday, August Il, were selected last night at a meeting of the city democratic executive committee, held in the office of J. H. Young, chair man. MT. Young was unable to be present and the meeting was presided over by his proxy, J. P. Whiteside.
 In discussing the selection of the clerks, managers and returning off cers, it was decided that the names of women be held out of consideration because of the large number of votes expected and the heavy labor expect ed to be placed upon the election of- ficials.
 Owing to the feat that in a city election held ( few weeks a two thirds of the officials were women, this action by the city executive commit tee last night was the cause of much discussion over the city today.
 The campaigning for city officers has not reached its height as yet, and to date it has been namely that of a personal canvass, very little public speaking being done by the candidates From all appearances, the campaign will be conducted very quietly and without any demonstration. 28 can. dates have announced and qualified for the race. Officers to be elected are mayor, president of the city council
