FALSE TO SOOTH: Patrons Disapprove Certain Text Book Used in Roanoke College. VETERANS TO TAKE ACTION Judge Moffitt Instructs His Daughter Not to Attend Class. I Special to The Times-Disp?tch. I Ronnukci Va.. February ^7. ? A Storni oi disapproval is gathering at Kbanokc College, cause?! by tho use in the. his? tory class by Professor ?. J.

Hi Tlnsley, of Salem, Informed a Rouuoke newspaper of the condition, and It is said that he has written to ptlier newspapers. The matter will be taken up by William Watts Camp of Confederate Veterans in this city. .Many extremely objectionable fea? tures to all Southern people are pointy] ed out, ami these are regarded as ab? solutely hi conflict with the facts of history, and likely to give Southern students perverted ideas of their own section and ancestry, and of the Con? federate cause, in the armies of which practically all of them bad relatives The history deals with the Johr Brown raid, and with the war. which it attributes to slavery. The historlar further besmirches the name of Robert E. Lee in tho discussion of the dos? Of the war. It has been learned that Judge W W. Moffitt, ot Salem, in December learned of the teaching of the his? tory. Judgo IJIncussed Matter. Judge Moffitt directed the attention of President Morehead to some of the objectionable features. Tho judge was i-ret t ed to Professor Thorstenburg, and wrote to him. The correspond? ence seems to have been unsatis? factory to him. He, however. oc? cupied the dual relation of a trustee of the ?-.-dletr.- and a patron, having a daughter in attendance there, and she was a member of the history class Ho was very anxious, as a trustee, to avoid Injury to the college, and as a judge and a patron to show the most absolute respect to tho collego dls- | cipllne and laws. At the same time li> resented Intensely the thought of | having his own daughter taught what he regarded as abominable and slan? derous falsehood against her own peo? ple. State and country. He said .to? day that he preferred not giving out the correspondence with Professor Thorstehburgi and was reluctant to discuss the publication. It Is known, however, that a? a final resort, having been unable to secure any redress ot satisfactory answer, either from Presi? dent Morehead or the orofessor of his tory, he reluctantly Instructed his daughter to refrain from attending th?j history class. Thir, may bring about a decisive issue. It is understood that under the col? lege rules a student refusinc to attend classes is subject to expulsion. Should this action be taken In the case of Miss Moffitt; it is safe to say that her father will make a very distinct Issue. j Protects your teeth, mouth and gums against impur ! ities. !

One of the best: known hairdressers in London?much patronized by royalty? has the following to say: "Frequent wash? ing of the head with soap and water or prepared shampoos makes the hair brittle and causes it to lose its color and split at the ends. "Any person desiring abundant, lus? trous hair should use a dry shampoo frc quentlj'. Mix 4 ounces of orris root with 4 ounces of thcrox. Sprinkle a table spoonful of this mixture evenly upon the head; then brush the powder thoroughly through the hair. "Thcrox and orris root keep the hair light and fluffy, and beautifully lustrous it heightens but does not change the natu? ral color of the hair. Therox is the only thing I know that will produce a growth of hair." What we advertise we sell; what we sell advertises us. Begin now and save 25 per cent, on your Groceries.
