BAD TEETH

Continued from Page One.)
the care of teeth and avoid negligence
of cavities. Cheap" dentistry is con-
demmed.
1.-THE secret of health, success and
an individuals personality lies in the
appearance of the teeth" ore promi-
nent member of the Kansas profession
said today. Bad teeth not only are
often a cause for physical ailment but
they destroy ones personality. a
woman may spend much money and
take ever so many pains to improve
her looks but if her teeth are not even
and white, such efforts are for naught.
AS fer bad teeth creating physical
ailment the percentage of cases where
this is true is large. Germs in cavities
and improper filling cannot help but
hurt the body.
Among the prominent Kansas dem
fists who are attending the conven-
ton today is DR.. F. o. Hetrick, of OF
tawa. He is a former president of the
National Dental association and is edi-
tor of THE Bulletin" issued in con-
nection with the convention. 1t is ex-
pected that the attendance at the-con-
vention will swell to 400 before the

WOMEN LOYAL, TOO
Kansas Girls Volunteer to Serve AS
War Clouds Gather.

Patriotic Kansas women are volun-
teering their services as nurses to the
Kansas National Guard High school
girls at lola and girls from Salina have
appealed to guard headquarters here
for training as war nurses. All nurses
serving in the army must be graduate
nurses and these girls must go thru
thoro training before they will be ELI
gible to army service.
For the present, no steps will be
taken to provide training fer these
girls unless they voluntarily &C into
a hospital for drill in nursing. There
are a hundred or more loyal Kansas
women who volunteered to train for
war nurses at the time of r1obiliza-
ton at Fort Riley about a year ago.
Their names have been filed in the
office of the adjutant general.

TROOPS OF 27 STATES
CONTINUED from Page One)

Fourteen regiments from nine states
were included in the original order
issued Sunday and this was augmented
today by orders for 20 more regiments
and five battalions of guards from
eighteen states.
While these forces stand guard over
arsenals munition plants. ship yards,
docks, big ridge spans and public
buildings the navy is crowding its re-
cruiting. raising the additional men
authorized when President Wilson
signed the order making the maxi
mum navy strength $1,000 men.
No Chances on Intrigue.
This strength will be increased to
100000 if present plans are carried
out by cong .css. While these warlike
preparation: proceed. the army has
completed a reorganization in six de-
partments. The military arm of the
government proposes to take no
chances with German intrigues.
The Zimmermann-M eXican- Japan
ese plot-and others-convinced the
nation of the extent to which Ger
many could-and would-go. Now
that war grows daily nearer, the gov
eminent naturally foresees the posi-
bility of trouble within the nation,
aimed at such vital things as plants
constructing ships or munitions.
The states themselves are anxious to
protect these institutions, but in or
dering out the national guards regi-
ments, they were called into national
service because the problem to which
they attend is really national rather
than local
AS for racial disturbances, that is
regarded as possibility. If it comes,
the militia is the likely policing force
to cope with it. Reorganization of
the country into six army depart
ments instead of four was ordered,
that the work ahead of the army. may
be the more readily accomplished
than under the present system, it was
stated.
Transfer of General Leonard Wood
from the eastern departm ent to the
with headquarters at Charleston, S. c.,
has caused much comment here Men
familiar with army affairs over a long
period profess to see in the change
perhaps the echoes of old resentments
and old feuds in which Wood has been
a prominent f.gure. Wood, one of the
men Colonel Roosevelt made" was
very close to Oyster Bay in his head
quarters at Cover nor's island.
~ While war preparations continue
within the country, there is much in
spection of foreign problems The
threatened German drive against Rus
STA offers ominous possibilities, for if
Germany could by any chance crush
Russia into n separate peace, the war
situation would be swung enormously
to Germany's advantage, giving her a
fresh lease on life. If, on the other
hand, Russia stands firm, then Ger
experts think, and with the United
States added to her enemies, she may
quite likely throw up the sponge
within a very few months

Waller was indicted for killing the
three children of Reeves, who We're
slam a the same time as their father.
