Their Greatest Enemy

Film is what discolors the teeth.
It is the basis Of tartar. It holds food
substance which ferments and forms acid.
It holds the acid in contact with the teeth
to cause decay.
Millions of germs breed in it. They,
with tartar, are the chief cause of pyor-
rhea. Thus night and day, while you feel
that teeth are kept clean, that film may be
doing ceaseless. fearful damage.
These facts have long been known.
Dental science has for years sought a
way to fight film. But periodic cleaning

KISSING TEACHER"
LACKED ERUD|T|ON
School Board Dropped North
Wales Man for Lack Of
School Certificate
OSCILLATION ADMITTED

Incf1iciency and lack of the proper
qualifications for teaching, which pre-
vented him from obtaining a certificate,
were the real reasons for the dismissal
Of Russell r. Brown, teacher in
North Wales school, and not merely
because he had introduced kissing
games into the classroom curriculum.
That he did urge the boys and girls
to play such games as 'postoffice,
'forfeits" and 'spn the plate" how
ever, was admitted by both members
of the school board and students.
For period of several days the
community avs much perturbed by
rumorS and reports of the abandonment
of the three RS" and higher subjects
of education. and the substitution of
the 'USculatiOn courses. AS each
parent passed the story along it gained
color, but it was said today by DIR.
William :. IIanley. treasurer of the
school board, that, although there was
truth in the report that Mr.. Brown
had started the games in the school, the
matter was not nearly so serious as
Mr.. Browns lack of knowledge of the
regular subjects he was required to
teach.
There was nothing suggestive or
immoral in the games" said DR.. Han
ley. but it was. of course, impolitic
for Mr.. Brown to introduce them among
students in their early teens"
Esther Payne, the eleven year old
daughter of the fire marshal of North
Wales. told today of how the teacher
had started the games.
"IIc asked all of US to hold up our
hands II We wanted to play spin the
plate, said little Esther. And of
course all of us did So This was on
the day before Thanksgiving.
Esther described the games. but what
had apparently made great impression
upon her was the rcputed ignorance of
their teacher on many subjects.
"Whcn any Of us would ask him a
question he couldn't answer. he would
quickly change the subject he was
teaching" said she Then he told us
all sorts Of stories. He said, when
some one asked where raisins grew. that
thcv grew on bushes and that negroes
picked them by stamping on the bushes
with their frct. That's the way he
answered our questions.
DR.. IIanlcy explained today that after
Brown had been teaching in the school
for some time it was found he did not
POSSESS a teachers certificate.
"IIe was informed" said the doctor.
that he must have one. and when he
was unable 10 pass his examinations. it
was impossible for us tO do anything
but ask for his resignation. which re-
leased him immediately from his post
in the school.

FAV0RS CREDIT TO RUSSIA
Farm Organization Leader Suggests
Plan to Aid Exports

Washington, Dec. 24.-(By A. P.)-
Extension Of credits to foreign govern
ments able to pay for American farm
products was advocated today by James
Il. Howard, president of the American
Farm Bureau Federation. at a joint
meeting of the Senate agricultural and
banking committees. He suggested that
the war finance corporation be made
the agency for the extension of such
credits, and mentioned Germany and
Russia as particular countries desiring
to buy American products.
Some method for permanent plan
of marketing. Mr.. Howard said. is
needed to relieve the farmers. In this
connection he said that the plan OF
Senator Hitchcock to make the profits
of the Federal Farm Loan banks avail
able for loans on farm products aud
livestocks would afford some temporary
relief.
Chairman Mclean, Of the banking
committee, remarked that he had re.
ceived communication from the Fed.
eral Reserve Board expressing opposi-
ton to the Hitchcock proposal.
