REAL ROMANCE

THE word romance" is a strange one. 1t
usually conjures up visions Of men who
live lives OF danger and action-soldiers. COW
boys explorers. sailors. and so on; too often
We forget that the greatest romance Of all is
sometimes to be found in a life which. TO all
outward seeming. is proSaic and uneventful.
one is reminded OF this by news Of the re-
cent death Of Dr. William Campbell Posey.

DR. Posey spent his life combating diseases

ASKS POLICE AID
TO BAN DRINKS

By Business Man.
AS a taxpayer, home owner, a
business man in the 1900 block,
Shelby street, 1 hope you will give
space in your paper for this letter to
the chief Of police.
1 ask him to do something to
clean up Shelby street from Mime
sofa street to the Belt railroad. On
Saturday nights these two blocks
are the DRINKS paradise. Come out
and see for yourself, Chief Morris
sey.
When these buns see a police Of
ficer in uniform they hide and when
he is gone they come out like rats
to insult our women and girls.
A family stopped trading with
me because the mother was afraid
some drunk would harm her chill
dren.
Again, Mr. Morrissey, am asking
you to do something about this con-
dition. There are buns on this
street who have no means Of sup
port. They beg, and if you do not
give them money they insult you.
If there is not something done to
relieve this condition, we will be
forced to go before the board Of
safety.

ABOUT CHURCHES

the so-called churches, where the

Wotsmatter, Mr.. jeff, did you take

Maybe you do not realize these
so-called churches do not wait for
the taxpayer TO support them, and
what is more Of it, their schools are
self-supporting if you have been
reading the papers for fourteen
years. 1t seems you would be more
broadminded. Yes, and I don't hap

the county commissioners in some
counties do not raise the amount

DEEMS SOCIALISM
ONLY WAY OUT
BY W. williams.

BY w. Williams.
More than ten million men now
are walking the streets and high
ways looking for work, and at least
another ten million are forced to
submit to part time employment.
Think of it! Want and grim fear
of want haunting the multitudes OF
the working class. Think also OF
four million farmers in distress.
Now, let us study the ABC Of I'M
employment. About 5 per cent Of
the people own as private property
the nations industrial set-up, the
mines, mills, factories and railways.
BY owning the property, they are
held also to own the right to give
or withhold the jobs connected with
the property.
In order that there may be prof
its. two conditions are absolutely
necessary. First, the workers must
be paid less than the value Of the
goods they produce. Second, there
must be market in which to sell
the goods.

DANDRUFF
SoonD DestroystheHa

If you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by
all means get rid Of dandruff for
it will starve your hair and ruin it
if you don't.
It doesn't do much good to try
to brush or wash it out. The only
sure way to get rid of dandruff is
to dissolve it. Then, you destroy
it entirely. TO do this, get some
plain ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring, using
enough to moisten the scalp and
rubbing it in gently with the finger
tips.
BY morning, most if not all of
your dandruff will be gone, and
two or three more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely
destroy every single sign and
trace Of it.
You will find, too, that all Itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop, and your hair will look and
feel a hundred times better. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It won't cost you more than
thirty-five cents (35c1.. No matter
how much dandruff you have, this
simple remedy never fails.

William j. Miskella, president

told Of plans for an exhibit at

for including the wings and legs
of ordinary flies in the making
Of distinctive paper.
Explaining this phenomenon,
Mr.. MiSkella said:
"The practicability Of using
flies wings and legs in the max
ing of paper is something that
is definitely assured. The prin-
cipal market for this sort Of
paper will be found in the sale
Of letter.writing paper and check

"The paper will be no better

types we are now using, but will
be something Of . novelty as

HARTMAN POST
UNDERNRA|N
DOUBT

NRA'S reorganization process,
now under way, which Is designed
to transform it into its new en-
forcement phase, may not mean
that william Averell Hartman,
who, as first assistant admins
traitor, is in direct charge Of the
transformation, will replace Gen.
Hugh s. johnson, or even that
he will continue long with the
agency, it was said authoritatively
today.
Mr.. Harriman'S arrival at NRA
brought the announcement that
he would remain with it only until
May or Is, and the job on which
he Is now engaged can be com.
pleted in that time, it Is asserted.
Whether he will return to his pri-
vate enterprises once the reorgan-
1Zation is completed is presumably
a matter that he will decide for
himself.
Sister Also in NRA
While he holds the position Of
first assistant administrator, how
ever, it places two members Of the
Hartman family in important
posts with the NRA, for his sister,
Mrs. Mary Hartman Rumsey, is
chairman Of the consumers ad-
viSory board.
She is q close friend of Miss
Frances Perkins, Secretary Of La
Dor, and the trio would have direct
contacts with practically all impor-
tant developments affecting indus
try, labor and the consumers.
It was said that Mr.. Hartman
has been placed in charge Of the
reorganization program because
the other executives of NRA are
so occupied with the day.to-day
activities Of the organization that
they are hardly capable Of taking
on further responsibilities.
Resignation Reports Gain
Nevertheless the reports that
General johnson is on the verge
Of quitting are more numerous
and persistent than they have
been at any time since the late
autumn. It has been intimated
on his behalf that he intends to
stay on the job unless the Presi-
dent is dissatisfied with him. The
new board erected in the interest
Of small business men, however,
of which Clarence Darrow is chair
man, is apparently on the verge
Of upsetting number of NRA
achievements, and the effect of
these activities may prove impor-
tant.
