PLATE BETTER THAN BRIDGE
Cannot Be Used by Dentists in Pre-.
pairing Men for War, However,
As It Is Barred by Army.

'The most conscientious dentists
are avoiding crowns and bridges
wherever possible" said DR.. Frank S.
Delano of New York, secretary Of the
Dentists Preparedness association, in
discussing the difficulties the 200
members of this association are hay
ing with putting the mouths Of would
be recruits into condition for their &C.
ceptance by the army and navy.
'The navy will accept men with
plates to replace teeth they have lost ;
the army will not, but makes no objec-
ton to men with crowns and bridges"
continued Doctor Delano. men come
to US to have their teeth put into con-
dition, and we should like to make
plates for them, but as the army re-
cruiting officers reject men with plates,
we have to put in bridges. This is
unfortunate, because a bridge means
the certain death before long Of the
two teeth to which it is anchored.
"The general public ought to know
this about bridgework. Many people
object to a plate, but they would not
If they knew they we're saving money
by it. After the anchor teeth die,
trouble begins; very soon the teeth
have to come out, and either larger
bridge or plate is necessary. If a
larger bridge be put in, it means the
death Of two more teeth, and ultimate
ly you have to come to the plate"

The Essentials Of Gardening,

The essentials for successful gar.
dening on a small or large scale are
soil, water and cultivation. Much de-
ponds also on the grower, the season
and the crops selected.
The soil is the storehouse of plant
food. The garden, therefore, should
contain humus or rotted material in
large quantities. The gardener should
remember that about so per cent of
ordinary earth is not soil at all. but
consists of air and water.
Water makes plantfood that Is pres
ent freely soluble. Rain and snow
water are soft and contain ammonia.
The magic Of soft water ON the plant
world is one Of the miracles Of good
gardening, as everyone who has con-
trasted the effect Of rain with that
produced by sprinkling with q hose.
realizes. Plants are succulent and
contain large amounts of water which
they have to draw from the soil.

Start Of Bio Industry.

Upon the invention of machine for
sewing leather shoes, for which the
patent was issued 10 Gordon Mckay,
April 20, 1862, was built the great boot
and shoe industry of the United States.
Mckay purchased, in 1859, Blake's sew
ing machine, which was one simply
using wax thread, with a stationary
horn attached. While the machine in
tended for sewing boots and shoes op-
Grated we'll in parts of the work, it
failed in stitching the heels and toes.
Mckay changed the feeding apparatus,
introduced automatic contrivances, and
finally was successful in adapting
It to all kinds of work. After the
breaking out Of the Civil war, Mckay
began to make army shoes, and in
1862 made contracts with 62 firms for
their use. In 1875, 1900 were In op-
Grafton. These machines have been
used In foreign countries, and more
than 1OOOOO,OOO shoes are annually
made on them in the United States.

NEW RISK FOR CAR THIEVES.
Federal Act FOrbids Taking Stolen
Motors Across State Lines.
MOTOR thieves have a hard W

Motor thieves have hard winter
ahead. Their fences have been
torn down by an act OF congress.
The national motor vehicle bill has
become a law without the Presl-
dents signature and sponsors OF the
law assert it will effectually stamp
out nationwide motor car thieVery.
The new law makes it an offense
punishable by fine of IS, 900 or a
prison term of five years to steal a
motor car in one state and drive II
into another.
The bill was sponsored by the Ma
tional Automobile Dealers Associa-
tiOn of which e. E. Peake is presi-
dent. Mr.. Peak said today. the
measure would apply effectively
here where many motors are stolen
and taken into Kansas and Okla
hOma.
Interstate traffic in stolen pas
senger cars now will be reduced to a
minimum and prison gates yawn for
those defying the new federal law
declaring the motor car a part or in
terstate commerce and subject to
the national statutes, the same as
railroads, steamboats, and bridges,
Mr.. Peake said.
The average number of motor
cars stolen in Kansas City each day
is four. Last night four were stolen.
In October 1919, there waere 1913
stolen and in October 1918, there
were 119 stolen. There are thirty
thousand motor cars in Kansas City.

"GOd be gracious to thee and tn

God be gracious to thee and thy
house." was the parting salutation
given to his victims by Rev. Isaac
George, native of Persia, who has
been gong up and down the state,
soliciting money for the stricken
Syrians. at Waterloo he fell into
the embrace Of James Nash federal
immigrati ton officer who had been
trailing the fellow for several days.
The alleged preacher proved to be a
fakir of the most pronounced type.
He gave a fellow in New Jersey a
dollar to write him purported Gre
dentials with the forged signature
of the Bishop of Persia. Inspector
Nash found $500 on the person Of
the fellow, $1,000 being found in
an inside pocket of his undershirt.
George bore credentials from
mayors in many cities from cham
bers Of commerce, clergymen, bank
ers, vice consuls and from the
secretary of state, Of Nebraska: One
pleaded to the public pathetically to
be liberal to the bearer citing the
passage CAS- We did it to the least of
these, my brethren, We did it unto
me-" George, who is AZ years old,
will be deported as an undesirable
alien. Inspector Nash says there is
an organization of 500 fake solicit
ors of Syrian relief and warns the
public to investigate thoroughly be-
fore contributing.
