Hair Deadened By
, Using Poor Shampoos
You cannot exercise too much care
in selecting a shampoo. Poorly pre
pared mixtures, shampoos, pastes and
emulsions containing an excess or
alkali deadens the hair, takes away
its life and lustre and in many in
stances causes it to turn white. Shu
co Shampoo is a perfect saponifica
tion of a blend of the highest refined
cocoanut and palm oils suspended in
a solution just right to give health,
vigor and lustre to the hair.
Two or three it'easpoonfuls applied
to the wetted hair and rubbed brisk
ly will at once change into a sparkl
ing, creamy, bubbling bushel of la
ther which vanishes at once all dir
and dust, rids the scalp of dandruff
and leaves the hair lustrous, soft,
wavy and brilliant. Your mirror will
tell you why Shuco Shampoo maker
hair with a thousand Ights. At all
drug stores. adv

Half Million Fords
Made In 6 Months
“When the first six months of the
Ford Motor Company fiscal year end- :
ed January 31, more than half a mil- |
lion of the sturdy little Fords had .
left the factory to join their three
and a half million brothers and sis- !
ters on the world’s highways,” Walter ■
Rylander, of the Americus Auto Co., ;
Ford distributors, says. “And Ford !
A Hit—

i
I officials express confidence in their
ability to turn loose the other half
of the million by July 31, when their
: year ends.
“However, they say that a million
i a year is far from the ultimate in
motor •ar manufacturing; and that
‘ with the completion of the blast fur
' naces and body plants which Ford is
now building in Detroit, the yearly
| output capacity is bound to assurqe
larger dimensions. The present
I capacity is 1,200,000.
“The blast furnace project will en
able the Ford Company to make Ford
parts direct from the iron* ore instead
of buying the iron ingots and then
melting them before making into
pans. At the present time there are
approximately 15,000 men engaged
at the blast furnaces and in the new
body plant. But it is quite probable
j that number will be more than dou
bled once the steel mills—which will
be the largest in America—begin to
operate. Ford men do not attempt
ito place any estimate on what the
production of cars will be in the fu
ture, but point to the fact that they
have not been able to supply the de
i mand for the past ten years and that
at the present time there are some
230,000 unfilled orders on file.”
Rain Keeps Delaying
County Road Paving
“It looks like the elements are de
termined that we shall lay no pav
' ing on the county roads,” said John
i B. Ansley, county superintendent, to
! day. “We started hauling crushed
■ rock out onto the Dixie Highway pro
• ject last Thursday, and before we had
j gotten more than 10 or 12 tons haul-
■ ed it began raining and stopped us.
I We started again Monday, and when
I about the 10th ton arrived on the
' ground the rain started falling. The
result was that the big trucks got
i stuck on the slick clay before thojf
’ could get unloaded and out, and we
i hade to resort to mules to rescue
’ them. But maybe the rain will let up
I some of these days long enough for
j us to get a start.’’
IA Shampoo That Will
Not Harm The Hair
Just as a cheap and strong soap
I draws and burns the skin, cheap
I shampoos, pastes and emulsions con
tain an excess of alkali and draw and
burn the hair, causing it to lose its
color and life. If you are not careful
'• in selecting preparations with which
, to wash the hair it is liable to suffer
an injury.
Shuco Shampoo is prepared from
i the highest quality of cocoanut and
palm oils perfectly saponified and sus
pended in a perfect solution that when
: applied to the hair two or three tea-
■ spoonful and rubbed briskly at once
} makes a bushel of creamy, rich, bub
bling and sparkling lather. Before
j it all dirt vanishes, leaving the scalp
I nd hair perfectly clean, lustrous, bril-
■ liant and soft as silk. Your mirror
| will tell you why Shuco Shampoo
; makes hair with a thousand lights. At
j all drug stores. adv
