Sure Way TO Get Rid Of Dandruf

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruf completed,
and that is to dissolve it. Then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, ordi-
nary. liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it i'll gently with
the finger tips. By morning, most,
if not all, of your dandruff will be
gone, and two or three more appli-
cations will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be
lustrous. glossy. silky and soft, and
',oll and feel hundred times better

When the annual tournament of the
Masonic Association gets under way
next week at Convention Hall, one OF
the hest known members of the circuit
will be among those missing. Henry
TAFT Rodier left town this morning
for Florida and will not be back IN
time TO do any bowling for Harmony
Lodge. Eenry is to stick around
Tampa for time to watch the
Nationals do their training for the

ment promises to be fine AFFAIR.
Arville Ebersole is working overtime
taking care of the many entries nled
for the tournament and insists that
this year there1l be more bowlers on
the drives than ever before in
Masonic meet And the quality of
competition promises to be much
better this year. Bowlers of the
league have been averaging high TINS
season and many recent scores lnul-
cate that tournament records are apt
to go by the board when they swing
into action.
There seems to be considerable
ballyhoo brewing anent a return
match for AL Gardner with Pop Evans
for the featherweight championship
of the Masonic Association. Since
taking the measure of Kid Ebersoie
in the bantam class, Gardner has
perked up wonderfully and now is
confident he can knock Evans over
the ropes. However, Gardner is in
sisting upon a bout of instead of
3 rounds. If he presses the issue
there probab bly, will be no meeting
with Evans. for the latter would have
to train for several months to get
into condition for a Ground match.

Sullivan was right; no thrown ball
ever got by O'Connor. But, while
O'Connor was a demon in fielding he
could not hit. and his weakness at bat
finally forced Sullivan to release him.
The day the announcement of his re-
lease was made the committee of
negroes once more waited on Sulli-

leased. Mike must stay. Since he
played first not a ball alighted in the

He went through with his plan of re-
leasing O'Connor. He signed A first
baseman that could hit and. at the
same time. he built a screen in front
of the colored section.
