CHURCH CARNIVAL LIGENSE GRANTED No Objection Expressed to St. Joseph's ng Event A permit was granted to St. Jox- eph's parish by the license comm:t- tee of the common council last night to conduct a carnival on the parish grounds on Edscn street from June 17 to 25, inclusive. John F. Calla- ! han, representing the parish, said it is intended to run the affair one week, closing on the 24th, but th» extra date in included as a saf: guard in case of rain. Councilman Adam Ziegler moved ghat the per- mit be granted, saying he saw noth- ing objectionable about the affair lust year, and Councilman William 8. Bcheuy seconded the motion. Councilman J. E. Holmberg, chair- man, was the only other member | present. Mr. Callahan said there was op- position to the granting of the per-| mit last year but an understanding was reached on suggestion of Coun- | cilman Hplmberg, to whom Mr. Cal- | lahan expressed thanks for the div- | lomatic manner in which he ranged for the meeting at the objections were met. Last year, the affair was called a circus, but the committee decidel to call it a carnival this year, Mr. Callahan said. The purpose of the | affair is to raise money for a new schaol fund, a building being badly | needed. The only music on the| grounds will be that of the flying | horses, he said, which will be kept as far back from the street possible. The loud blare of the me- chanical band in the flying hors:s will be replaced by the softer and more melodious tones of an orch-s- tra, a decided improvement in the apparatus.

At the first sign of it, go after it with Listerine, the safe antiseptic; for dandruff is a germ discase and Listerine attacks germs. To combat dandruff you simply douse it on full strength and massage the scalp vigorously. Keep the treatment up systematically. Unless the case is a wvery serious one, requiring the attention of a physician, you will note improvement within ten days. Listerine destroys even the stubborn Staphylococcus Aureus (pus) and also kills 200,000,000 of the Bacillus ‘Typhosus (typhoid) germs in 15 seconds.
