Students Hear Shady
La*w Practice Scored
Medical Expert Condemns Sacrifice
of Clients’ Interests in Per
sonal Injury Cases.
Members of the Atlanta bar and
students of the Atlanta Law School
are today pondering a lecture by Dr.
William Perrin Nicolson, medical ex
pert, delivered Monday night on "The
Ethics of the Profession.”
"The corporation lawyer insists
that a green plaster will cure spinal
concussion, and that the injured vic
tim gets well at the sight of the
long green." said the expert. "If you
think your client is going to get well
before the trial comes, or if he gets
w« II too quick, do your duty; there
are some cases to be settled.
"But the most outrageous practice
of the personal injury lawyer is the
frequency with which the claims of
clients are sacrificed and compro
mised by lawyers who have no qualms
of conscience at this shady practice.”

Tennis Gray
When a woman’s hair turns gray,
the world expect:-* her to step back
from the limelight. Active and
abreast of the times she may be.
with a wide experience, but—she
has grown old and gray headed.
Fortunate, indeed, is the woman
whose hair retains its color
through her forties.
But what of the woman whose
hair begins to fade, maybe as early
as 25 or 30, the woman in the midst
of the active business world V "We
don’t want old women!” She feels
it all around her.
Don’t let your hair turn gray. But
be careful. Very few hair stains are
absolutely pure and harmless.
There are some reliable prepara
tions: our Robinnaire Hair Dye Is
one. Made here in Atlanta, in our
own laboratory, and we guaran
tee it to be pure and positively
non-injurious to either hair or
scalp. It makes the hair soft and
keeps it in fine condition, and no '
one can detect that a hair stain
has been used. It is not a vulgar
bleach or artificial coloring. It ;
is a natural restorative that puts .
back life and color into the hair. |
No one need hesitate to use it. <
Non-sticky, and does not stain skin !
or scalp
