declared their intention of returning

to all high school students by Howard
Spriggs, an Armstrong contestant,
who entered the finals again this year
despite the fact that he won second
place in the preceding contests. The
Armstrong jury awarded the position
of alternate to SpriSgs again this

No little part of the success of the
contest in these two schools was due
to the efforts of Cicero Sims, editor
of the Armstrong Torch, and Mollie

Beauty You Stop
ToLook At

II there IS anything in this world
lorelier than a head of Silken-like
hair, pronounced i'll It's own color,
and wavy. it is an abundance of it.
1t is just as easy TO have hair like
that as to have any at all. 1t is not
always a gift of nature, that is true.
But it IS always possible if you
keep it clean by brushing it with
rev dashes Of Danderine. Shampoo
ing alone can not remove the dan
druff and that oily film which keeps
it dull
Make it a habit to use a little
Danderine on YOUR brush every time
YOU fix your hair, and you will
always have soft. lovely, beautiful
locks. A million women are doing
it. and as fast as those who are still
struggling with coarse, dull, lifeless
hair learn about the marvellous
things Danderine is doing, they can
not keep back their enthusiasm.
Just one thing to be sure of. Use
a stiff brush and draw If through the
hair with long, even strokes clear to
the scalp SO each strand becomes
alive and glowing. 1t will help to
keep in your waves.
Danderine is so inexpensive. too.
The 35c bottle contains enough 10
show you how wonderful it is. You
can get it from your nearest store.
