Note How Teeth Discolor

Note How Teeth Discolor
Mems teeth in particular.
Note how tartar forms.
Note how children's teeth de-
cay-and perhaps your own
despite the daily brushing.
Every woman knows that old
methods of teeth cleaning are
inadequate, Every dentist
knows il.
The reason lies in that Shiny
Aim. You feel it with your
tongue. 1t clings TO teeth,
enters crevices and stays. And
the tooth brush doesn't end it.
That film is what discolors-
not the teeth. 1t is the basis of
tartar. 1t holds food substance
which ferments and forms acid.
1t 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 pyorrhea. Thus most
tooth troubles are now traced
to film.
Dental science, after years of
searching, has found a way to
combat film. Dental authori-
ties have proved this beyond
question. Now the method is
embodied in a dentifrice called
Pepsodent. And we offer to
all a To-Day Tube to show ev-
cry home what it does.

SCOUTS HERE. RUMOR

It was rumored yesterday that Scouts Cap Neil, of the Louisville Colonels. and Arthur Devliu. of the New York Giants, were at yester- days game at Rickwood.
 These two 'ivory hunters- have been in Nashville the last few days, and it is not at aiI unlikely that they dropped down to Birmingham to have look at some of the local talent.
 It was also said that n Boston National League scout was in the party.
 There are several promistn-. youngsters among the Barons who should find favor ia the eyes Of the seekers.
 Again, the scouts may have just preceded the Vols here n day or so with the intention of further looking over the Nashville young sfcrs in the Vol Baron series. Who knONS.

NASHVILLE HERE TODAY

Yesterdays game marked the close of the four-game series with Memphis. Nashville Vols are scheduled for a couple of games at Redwood to cap off the weeks play.
 The Vols have been going good lately and are expected to give the Earons a whale of scrap for the series.
 The Crackers have been engaging the Vols in rather lengthy series lately. Eilam's men have forced tn } Franknen to the limit and it is with undoubted pleasure that Atlanta bosses see the Volunteers depart for other sections of the league. Before the Vol series the Crackers had aspira- tions to taking the lead. At the close of the series the percentages snow them no further advanced than before

TIT FOR TAT

Just as Umpire Clifford landed on the Barons with both feet and all weight Wednesday, so did he prosecute the Chicks yesterday. In the first two minutes of play he showed that he in tended to take no monkey business" yesterday. It happened this way:
 Frierson was at bat Meeker threw him four balls. a least it was claimed that he did. Umpire Clifford said that 1t was three. Chick Manager Lewis went out to tell Clifford about the other ball and Cliff called him down in no uncertain manner. McLarry joined forces with his chief and the two caught it proper from Cliff.

BROKE EVEN WITH CHICKS

The Barons broke even with the Chicks, winning two and losing two. Two games were played i'm each town, each team winning one nt home and in the other teams native burg.
 By all rights the Barons should have made 1t series from the Chicks. Yesterdays game was lost to the Chicks in n manner strong ly indicating "flukeyism.. At 1enst. one of the Chicks runs was made off scratch hits. while at least one Baron run wns cut off by n fluke double play. These two changes in the score would give the game to the BarOns by q 1 to 3 score.

Al Ellis didn't break up the game by driving in the winning run with q mighty pinch blow yesterday but he certainly slammed out a peach of q pinch blow in the ninth inning yester- day. sending across the run that feil short only one tally of tying the score. The only reason the Barons didn't win yesterday was that there were noJ enough men on bases when Ellis came to bat.
 Gallagher will probably pitch for the Barons today, opposing either Lohman or eis, of the Vols.
