 SCHOOL CHILDREN GOING TO DECAY
BERNARD sETZER ADVOCATES
 FREE DENTAL CLING BEFORE :. 2sf SCHOOL BOARD.
Says 90 Per Cent. of Pupils Have Defective Molars-Proposes a
 Remedy.

Bernard Setzer appeared before the Board of Education last evening to urge that more attention be given the matter of educating the. children to take better care of ,etheir teeth, and to establish a dental clinic He said that he had made a study of the sit nation, and had discovered some conditions which were reyolting.
 < You gentlemen don't know the true conditions and I:swant to call this vital matter to your attentfon,'' he said. Fully. 90 sper cent ofs the child Ten in the schools have defective teeth needing professional attention accord Ing to MT. Setzer's opinion. He cex@ plafned | that he had spent consider able times in a certain dental office and observed school children who cames to, have teeth cared for Child ren; came: in fearful that :. they were going to be terribly hurt and all sorts of: imaginary aagonies were suffered
 MT. Setzer said that, a. certain bus mess man who was building a new block had offered to allow the use of the top floor of the building for two years without cost if the Board of Education would equip the room into dental parlors for the special use of school children Dentists of good standing have offered their services free of charge and the only cost to the city would be in the neighborhood of $3, 900 or $4,O00 with which to prop erly equip the room. MT. Setzer spoke of the benefit of such a place and also ofAa campaign of education. There would be no cost to the child ren and if child had a tooth ache it could be taken care of immediated- lv.

BISHOP BREWSTER WILL SHARE HIS
 SALARY IN PART
Asks Convention to Name Suf-
 fragan Bishop and Designate Diocesan Church :.

Hartford, June 1.-The annual convention of the Protestant Epis- copal Diosese opened here, today. The most important matters brought be- fore the convention were the raising of Christ Church to cathedral and the appointing of suffragan or as- sistant bishop.
 The feature of today's meeting was the address by Bishop Chauncey B. Brewster.
 In speaking of the bishop suffragan he said he did not desire coad- tutor. If suffragan bishop was ap- pointed he said, he would relinquish $1,000 of his salary to be given to the newly elected.
 He spoke of the need of unity in the diocese and that to further that end the convention ought to have a diocesan church.
 Essential to my conception of a cathedral is what I may call the democratic, popular element but be- longing to the catholic >ideal of. the church. In its administration the people of the diocese would be repre- sented.'
 Bishop Brewster. in closing, sug- gested that Christ Church, Hartford, be- selected as a cathedral and told of the changes that could readily be made in the church to adapt it to such a purpose. : He also suggested that a committee be appointed to con- slider the matter ,-s>e

CONGRESSMAN: . LOSES LIFE IN.
 WASHINGTON
Believed to Have Been Instantly
 ! Killed by Train $

Washington, June 11-Representative Robert c. Wickcliffe, of the 9th Louisiana district, was instantly kill- ed here, today, on the railroad bridge which spans the Potomac river just south of Washington. His body was seen by members of the train crew on a Southern Railway train, crumbled up about two feet from the track. Whether he was struck by this train and killed or fell from one of the platforms police have as yet been un- able to ascertain.
 The victims identity was not made known, until after his pockets were searched, cards and letters indica ting he was the Congressman. Because the railroad bridge is in a deserted part of the suburbs, police believe Wick cliffe fell from. one of the cars.
 Mrs. Wickclfffe, unaware of her hus- bands death, having left her home early today, was in the members gall lery when the House convened. When Representative Broussard of Louisiana announced his colleagues death, Nus Wickcliffe tainted from the shock ahd had to be carried out of the gallery to the Speakers, office

LITTLE POINTS TO REMEMBER
Matters Of Etiquette That Never
Should Be Absent From
the Memory.

When the luncheon guests are Ia.
dies exclusively the hostess leads the
way to the dining room. where places
are chosen at will or are fixed by
dainty plate favors with the names in
scribed on one side.
Many hostesses prepare for an in
formal musical and literary program
following luncheon.
The hostess driving with another
woman in closed carriage allows her
guest to take the choice of seats by
giving her precedence in entering the
carriage.
Only the most delicate scent is al.
lowed on lady's stationery, and it is
better to dispense with perfumery in
this line altogether. If used a sachet
is introduced into the box in which
the stationary Is kept, the scent being
the same as that affected by the own

If ever a city was cursed by
an inefficient police department,

If ever a city was cursed by
an inefficient police department,
Minneapoi is that town. In
order to square themselves for
the negligence Of the o1icer who
was sent to visit the scene Of the
Mathews tragedy, they arrested
an innocent person in the person
of Frank J. Quartemont and SUB
mitted him to the ignominy Of
a prison cell with the .sweatbox
orde al thrown in, and then the
court set him free. There never
was the slightest cause for Mr..
Quartemont's arrest and he
would be justified in going after
the scalps of some of his perse-
cutors, including that of the
preacher who gave the police
department information in the
form of two anonymous tele-
phone messages. The odium is
likely to cling to this innocent
man and good citizen for years.
1t is an outrage for the duly con-
stltuted authorities to thus be-
smirch tie good name of a man
and there should be some re-
dress. Meantime good citizens
of Minneapolis should arm them
selves with clubs or guns in Or.
der to protect their lives until
the city gets decent police de-
partment.

PARENTS, YOUR EARS

The Herald has received many
words of commendatiOn for it's
editorial last week on the sub
ject of the Matthews girl mur-
der. Men and women have
t h a n k e d the publisher for
speaking right out in meeting"
on subject of supreme import
ance. The Herald felt that it
was high time that something
was said. 1t is grateful for the
appreciation shown it in this
matter.
What in the world can parents
be thinking about to allow their
daughters to run about the
streets at night whenthey should
be in their homes behaving
themselves? No wonder there
was tragedy in the Matthews
home. Two daughters out till
an unreasonable hour in nobody
knows what company. "As ye

dark in questionable company

Sauk Centre is true of every
small town in the country. Girls
think it fun to fiirt with strange
men and catch on" to beau;
girls, too, who know better.
What do you think about it, par

those things half a century ego.
Why do they do them now? If
