Entrance of Turkey
Into War to Affect
Showman's Contract
City Organist to Play
At St, Mark Sunday
The Rev. A. M. Hughlett, pastor of
the St. Mark Methodist Episcopal
Church, will preach Sunday morning
on "Fact Versus Form,” opening the
new auditorium of the church.
Edwin Arthur Kraf*, city organist,
and Miss Edna Bartholomew, church
organist, will play.
The entrance of Turkey into the
European world war creates an Inter
esting problem for Miller Brothers,
who. in addition to being half owners
of the 101 Ranch Wild West Show,
which arrives in Atlanta Sunday, own
the big 101 Ranch at Bliss, Okla.
A few weeks ago Joseph C. Miller
entered into a contract with a repre
sentative of the Greek Government, in
New York, to furnish that country
10,000 horses. The money for the
purchase of the horses was deposited
in a New York bank, to be drawn
upon as rapidly as the horses were
accepted and placed on board ship at
New brleans. A provision of the
contract was that, in the event of
Greece becoming involved in the war,
responsibility for the horses ended
with the horses actually shipped.
Up to the present time about 3,000
horses have been shipped, and a
trainload of horses for the Greek
army is now en route from the 101
Ranch -to New Orleans in the hope of
getting them aboard ship before
Greece opens hostilities against Tur
key. In the event of war between
the two countries, which now seems
inevitable, the balance of the contract
would lapse. In that event the horses,
most of which have been assembled
on the ranch, would probably be
taken over by the British Government
and sent to Canada for shipment.

Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp.
There is one sure way that has j
never failed to remove dandruff at |
I once., and that is to dissolve it; then
you destroy it entirely. To do this
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug !
store (this is all you will need); ap- f
ply It at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp, and rub
! it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, of your
1 dandruff will be gone, and three or
; four more applications will complete-
i l.v dissolve and entirely destroy every I
single sign and trace of it, no matter
' how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all Itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly, and |
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glosy. silky and soft, and look and feel
a hundred times better.
If you value your hair, you should
get rid of dandruff at once, for noth- j
ing destroys the hair so quickly. It
