Sherman, Wales Pupils
In Matinee Recital

A matinee recital was recently
given by the pupils of Mrs. Lloyd
Sherman and Miss Esther Wales at
the Carl Pearson home.
Although this was the first APP
pearance in public for most of the
little musicians, they played with an
accuracy and ease which evinced
thorough training and gave promise
of greater things in the future.
This was especially true of the
work of Edith Cheney, whose rend-
ering of the closing group of four
short numbers showed a most re-
markable ability in both interpreta-
ton and technique.
The two readings by the pupils of
Mrs. Sherman were unusually well
given and thoroughly enjoyed by all.
Mrs. Sherman closed the program
with one of her charming portrayals
of child life, entitled who's
Afraid? ~
Those taking part in the recital
were Velva Melgard, Avis Pearson
Gretchen Grimm, Mary Alice Sher-
man, Mabel Chapman, Ramola
Cheney, Helen Gilbertson, Lilah
Simpson, Helen Bragstad, Edith
Cheney and Mrs. Sherman.
After the program refreshments
were served.

"A Road School
At Eau Claire

A division Road School for High
way Patrolmen, County Highway
Commissioners, their assistants,
County Highway Committees, and
all other people interested in high
way activities, will be held at Eau
Claire, June 4th and 5th, 1924. The

Wednesday, June 4. There will be
a full program that afternoon and an

Policy and Program" Mr.. Donaghey
will also speak at the meetings held

will be present and give addresses at
the meetings on Wednesday evening
and Thursday. There win be a num-
Der of other addresses by highway
officials directly in charge of the
work in the different counties and in
the state and the programs should be
both instructive and interesting to
all who are taking an active interest
in highway activities.
County Road Schools have >been
held in each county in the Eau
Claire Division for the past six
years. These County Road Schools
have been largely attended and have
accomplished a great deal of good.
However, there was a general de-
mand for large meeting such as the
Division Road School for which out
side speakers could be secured. The
County Road Schools will not be held
this year.
All meetings will be held in the
City Auditorium at Eau Claire which
is located on North Barstow Street
on S. I. H. No. IL and No. ~. 1t is

GO TO SCHOOL WEEK
DREW MANY VISITORS

GO to School Week" was a great
success from the standpoint of all in
terested parties. Parents were
pleased with what their children
were doing and teachers were en-
couraged by the helpful and interest
ed attitude of the parents.
About two hundred parents visited
regular class work in the high school
and grades and four hundred attend
ed the parents and teachers meeting
and visited the exhibits in the gym
nasium
While the exhibits were not at all
complete and did not touch all phases
of the school work, they were typical
and gave many parents an insight
into the work of the school that was
very much worth while.
Visitors were impressed with the
value of outside activities. Many
people believe that such activities
have no serious purpose; that they
are mere aimless play. Quite a num-
Der went away convinced that extra
curricular activities are vital part
of a modern high school.
The teachers were impressed with
the interest which the parents and
other visitors showed in the regular
classroom work. They are more
firmly convinced than they were be-
fore the experience and knowledge
of parents can be made an import
ant factor in the education of child
rem. They did not find all parents
wholly in sympathy with all phases
of the work being done, but they did
find that for the most part the at
titude of the parent is constructive.
and works toward the improvement
of the school, To a greater degree
| than most of them thot possible
parents seemed willing to listen to
the evidence substantiating school
changes and to alter their own con-
| illusions where the evidence seemed
| to warrant such a change. What
! ever criticisms were made were made
in the most helpful attitude.

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. S.-Judge Eugene c. Bonniwell yesterday heard and accepted a verdict of "gypsy triaT' held here Thursday night and dismissed a charge of ''forcible entry to steal" against Alexander Antonio Cristo.
 Alexander Cristos 16-year-old daugh- ter, Lena, became the purchase bride" for $500 of Miller, Steve, some time ago. Later she left him and returned to her father.

LEGAL FIGHT WON
 BY DOCKS BOARD
IS Acres Of Land Between Mill Creeks Is
 Condemned

MOBILE, Ala, Nov. S.-(Special Leased Wire. .)-The state docks com mission today won the first point in litigation which resulted from refusal of owners of what is known as the Downing property to accept the valua- tion as fixed by the state appraisers when Judge Price Williams, in probate court, granted the condemnation peti- tion and named three Mobilians to fix fair value for the eighteen acres of land located between One and Three Mile creeks. The land is desired for use by the commission in the develop ment of a $10,000,0O0 port to Mobile river.
 Members of the board who will value the property are James c. Vanantwerp, John B. Dortch and l.. G. Adams. John D. Meador was first named as apprais- CT, but was disqualified. Judge Will Hams named MT. Adams to serve in place of MT. Meador. The appraisers have twenty days in which to report value to the court, and if either party to the litigation is dissatisfied an appeal can be taken and the case heard by a jury.
 Should the value be satisfactory to the state docks commission a check for the amount will be filed with the court, and unless the defendants appeal within thirty days the decision is final, it was stated yesterday.
 Disputed values of fourteen acres of swamp land, known as March heirs property will be taken to the probate court in a few days, the docks com mission announced yesterday. The commission already owns onehinth of the so-called March property, purchas- ing it from the First National bank after that institution had come into possession of assets of tine old National City bank. It was stated yesterday the bank accepted the valuation as fixed by the state appraisers.
 Approximately svenety-five employees of the commission continue to make progress in the dredging operations along the river. The government dredge, Wahalak, is doing effective work preparing the new road bed for the Louisville and Nashville while a small dredge owned by the Alabama Dry Docks and Shipbuilding company, is at the task of dredging the canal which will connect One and Three Mile creeks. The canal will be ten feet deep and one hundred feet wide, and will accommodate small craft.

TURN HAIR DARK
 WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed With Sulphur It Dark ems So Naturally Nobody
 Can Tell

The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmoth- CTS recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advan- tage.
 Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" It is very popular because nobody can dis cover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disap- pears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeths Sage and Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and ap- pearance of abundance which is so at- tractive.-AdV.
