gram from the Southern Cotton

good prices, theyssre not inclined to

Painful Dental Work.

In the time of Nero there were pro-
fessiOnal dentists who could replace
lost teeth with artificial ones made
OF sycamore wood, which were fas-
tened to their natural neighbors with
gold wire. A gold plate with several
teeth attached has been found in an
Etruscan tomb. But those dentists
knew nothing of the art of excavating
and filling cavities. When a tooth be-
came too painful they removed it, not
by pulling it but by prying it out in
a manner that must have been most
distressing to the sufferer.

WHAT'S THE RSASON

Much interest is manifested in res
olution introduced by Representative
Charles E. Fuller of Illinois, calling
upon the President to communicate to
the House reasons as to why the War
Trade Board refuses license to Ameri-
can manufacturers for the purpose of
export of manufactured goods to citi-
zens of neutral countries. The Presi-
dent is also called upon to give any
reasons as to why the War Trade
Board board refuses to permit these
manufacturers to communicate with
their customers in neutral countries
with view to future business.
If the bill introduced by Represen-
tative Horce M. Towner of Iowa be-
comes a law there will be created a
new Government department, known
as the Department of Education. This
would also make necessary Secre-
tary Of Education, who would receive
the regular cabinet salary of $4,000 a
year. AS far as the general system of
the department is concerned, it would
be managed on the same basis as all
other departments and it would absorb
the Bureau of Educacation and all 9TH
er war-emergency commissions or
boards or educational activities that
in the judgment of the President
should be transferred to this new de-
partment. The secretary of education
is made all powerful in the adjusting
of all bureaus, boards, commissions,
ETC., transferred to his department by
this act. The specific duty of the Sec
rotary would be to encourage the
States in the development of public
educational facilities, including pub
lie health education. An appropria-
ton of 100000 annually is made for
the paying Of salaries and expenses
and for the creating of system of at
taches to American embassies abroad
to deal with educational matters.
$100,000,O00 is appropriated annually
to encourage the promotion of educa-
tional matters in the States. A part
of this sum is to be used for the re-
moving of illiteracy; part for the

struction in the grade and high schools.
In order to share in this money, the
States must maintain in every public
school district school for at least
twenty-four weeks and provide COM
pulsory attendance and the English
language as the only basic language
Another part of the appropriation is
set aside for physical and health edu-
cation, including the maintenance of
dental clinics, the furnishing of school
nurses and the instruction of the peo-
pie in health and sanitation. In adj
dition to these provisions the bill is
complete in taking care of every phase
of education and looks to the better
ment of educational facilities, includ-
ing the education of teachers both be-
fore and after they are established in
a regular school.

WOMEN USING WAR
MACHINE TO KILL
JOHN BARLEYCORN

Lansing, Mich, Feb. 4.-The Wom-
ems Council Of Defense, built up dur
ing the war to mobilize Michigan's
woman-power on the side of democ-
racy, proposes in East Lansing, at
least, to remain on the job, and to use
at the polls in April the tricks of or
ganization it learned while engaged
in war work. The college city coun-
Gil has overnight become the nucleus
of political club to instruct women
in their new duties of citizenship and
to coach them on how to register and
vote. Incidentally, while refusing to
endorse candidates, or to ally itself
with any political party, the club is
taking a stand upon isues and is as
sisting in lining up the feminine forces
within the city for fight against the
adoption of the proposed vine and
beer amendment to be submitted at the
spring election.
The city has been divided by the
women into number of divisions, Just
as was done for war work, but where
formerly the housewife and mothers
met and busted themselves with knit
ting socks and making bandages, they
convene now to learn when and where
to register and how to max their bal
lot. Tea and waters help to make The
functions more informal and sociable
AS a result of the first meetings of
the East Lansing club, more than two
