State Dental Examiner i'm Glover.

DR.. D. S. Darling, the recently ap-
pointed state dental examiner, is in
Glover, where he will work among
the children between six and IL years
Of age. In speaking of the work of
DR.. Darling, state papers say: CDR.
Darling's work is to look over the
teeth Of the children in sections where
a dentist is not accessible. Where
it is necessary to extract tooth, this
will be done, but in most cases the
teeth will be filled and the mouth
cleaned out. The work is made pos
sible by means of the Proctor found
alton.
''The work is slow because there is
so much of it to be done. In the Sec
tions where a dentist is rarely seen
the children grow up with no regard
for their teeth, and that is one of the
principal reasons why so many Ver-
monters were rejected for the army.
els it not the intention to compete
in any way with the regular practic--
ing dentist, but to wake up the rural
districts to the Importance of good
teeth, and this will in time help the
practice of all dentists. The usual
time passed in a small town is be-
tween two weeks and a month. The
children. must be gotten in from the
district schools and because of the
large amount of work to be done IN
Vermont it will be long time before
all the scattered places are visited.

Mayo Endorsed by State ''Dry" Fore.

A new development in the political
situation of Vermont with relation to
the gubernatorial campaign is the
unanimous endorsement of the candl-
dacy of DR.. William B. Mayo, OF
Mortified, Democratic nominee for
governor, by the Vermont Anti-Sa-
loon League.
Supt. Clifford II. Smith of the
league when informed of the platform
Of Candidate Mayo, made arrange
ments for a meeting.
The following was adopted as the
official statement Of the leagues po-
sition:
'The Vermont Anti-Saloon League
is a strictly non-partisan Organlza-
ton, and as such takes no part in the
discussion of political party questions.
1t includes among it's supporters men
of various political faiths but all unit
erage liquor traffic and in efforts for
it's speedy and complete suppression.
"Since DR.. w. B. Mayo Of North
field, a candidate for governor, has
publicly stated that he is strongly in
favor of the prohibitory amendment
to the Constitution of the United
SCaCoS recently SuDIuiCCGu NY SOIlSISSo
to the states for their action, and that
he will do everything in his power to
effect it's ratification and since P. w.
Clement of Rutland, the other candi-
date for governor, is, and long has
been bitter opponent of prohibition
either state or national; we therefore
earnestly urge all Vermont voters
who favor national prohibition of the
beverage liquor traffic to cast their
ballots without regard to political
party affiliations for DR.. w. B. Mayo
of Mortified for governor of Ver-
mont.
eve also urge upon the freemen of
Vermont the Importance of electing a
legislature that will ratify the pro-
posed amendment at the earliest pos
sible moment after it convenes in
January, in order that Vermont may
have an honorable place among the SO
states that by their favorable action
will make ours a saloonless nation"

FALL SOWN RYE

From the August issue of the Cor
leans County Agricultural Associa-
tion News"
The United States Department of
Agriculture in a recent bulletin rec
ommends the sowing of rye in regions
too cold for winter wheat to succeed
we'll in. Vermont's quota is 1000
acres. Farmers in Orleans county
may feel safe in sowing rye as this is
much more hardy than wheat. AS
rye is being largely used as substitute
for wheat as bread grain, the SOW
ing of rye instead of wheat in sections
where conditions are more favorable
for rye will materially increase the
total food production.
