You and Your Teeth An Educational Series
 By H. C. WEIDLICH DDS.
Number Thirteen.

A vital factor in maintaining tooth health is tooth cleanliness. This can pc accomplished in a degree by the proper and persistent use of the tooth Drush. But in spite of such vigilance iI IS almost invariably the case that oeposlts of tartar will accumulate, especially between the crevices and at the base of the teeth and unless re- moved will ultimately cause serious dental trouble. Deposits of tartar at the tooth base gradually and almost imPerceptfbly crowd away the gum and in case of persistent neglect well defined case ow pyorrhea results with all its attending evils. We skill Fully and carefully clean the teeth without discomfort to you and at normal cost-In fact, so far as our charges are concerned. they are al- ways reasonable, while our work, as any of our patients will tell you, is the pest that can be obtained anywhere at any price. Our system of depend able dentistry is built upon founda- ton of fair dealing and superior workmanship and we feel a just pride in the good opinion which our patti ents entertain of our work.

ACTRESS DRAWS SALARY
 YEARS WITHOUT WORK

London, Oct 25.-Miss Marianne Caldwell, Lcndon actress, has been drawing a salary for four years, and has not done any work for it.
 In 1916 she was engaged for "the run of the piece" for Gnu Chin Chow at His Majestys theatre.
 Before this obstinately successful play was produced it was found that Miss Caldwell need not be called upon for the part she had rehearsed and her services have never been re- quired since.
 Every week a check for her salary is sent her, and in acknowledging the receipt she says where she may be found if wanted in a hurry.

KING OVER VATICAN
 IN DIRICIBLE

Rome Oct. 25-Y esterday King vic tor Emmanuel, who takes keen 1n- terest in flying, motored over to the aerodrome of Clamprino in order to inspect the giant Zeppelin L-61, Italy's share in the spons of Germany's air fleet, which has Sa been rechrlsteneo Italia, and the dirigible TEA Roma, which is to attempt the transatlantic flight to the Argentine.
 Accompanied by General De Sic bert, inspector of the air force, and by Engineer Mobile, who built the dirigible and expressed the wish to enjoy a short trip in the air.
 The huge ship at once rose to height of over 1000 feet, and after lowering over the Alban Hills neaoeo straight for Nettuno and Antium, on the sea- and going several miles out eastwards, with the blue Mediter- ranean underneath.
 A beeline was then made for the Eternal City, still half asleep in the early autumn sun. Here the Roma dropped to a much lower level, the King having expressed oesIre to Gardens, which, of course, he has never visited.
 At that moment a. carriage drawn by two black horses and escorted by a couple of mounted noble guards was driving down one of the broad avenues, and when the dir1g1ble came roaring overhead the carriage was observed to stop and a frail figure in white, accompanied by a monsignor' stenped out and stood still, watching inc huge monster with great interest. 1t was the Pope taking his morning drive.
 The King looking over the side, saw and recognized Benedict XIV perfect Iy. although the latter. of course, had not the slightest idea who his early visitor was And so for some minutes the Pope and the King stood staring st each other. It.was their first meet ing, but perhaps not the last. Who knows? Stranger things have hap nened in this age of surprises.

Alimony Refused Wife

Difficult to Believe Couple

ration Nov. Saws Tudoe

After twentyeight years of married
life, lErs. Minnie Weiner. of 40 Sack

day inl the Supreme Court before Jus
tice Stuires and petitioned for ali
mony land counsel fees pending the
argument of her suit for separation
from her husband. Harry of the same
address, The justice denied the. appli-
cation with the following advice:
at is difficult to believe that q
couple who have been married and
have lived together twenty eight wears
and raisrd and educated ten children
really deasire a separation. The plain
tiff and the defendant and seven of the
children .1are now living in the same
house. Il seen reason why alimony
should bes granted"
Mrs. Wtener detailed her married
life in a long affidavit She accused
her husbftnd of holding money in a
bank duri ng the panic of 1907 when
his family actually was in want. She
also charged that he had leaning
toward bol.ahevism, and that he threw
a kettle of hot water at her in 1918.

Brom Says Campaign Issue
Is SDixieA' VS.. Battle Hymn
Favors Little Conveln tons With Less Singing: Too
Many Shows. and Opportunities for
+'Cliuckleheads''

at onethird off this week we fully be-
lleve that Senator Robinson or Homer
Cummings would have the message
read.
Senator Robinson, by the way. is
curiously reminiscent of Sam Bernard
in his speech-making mannerisms He
has trick of winding himself up by
whlrling about rapidly and then sud
denly disentangling himself as he
reaches the point of his sentence He
works himself up into fearful fury
tables. He RACES up and down the plat
form. In fact, Me gives the sort of
imitation of earnestness which goes
best with an audience of 10000, but
he would never do in the little con-
vention which we have suggested.
The issue which divided Democrats
and Republicans is gradually becoming
clear. 1t seems to be whether Dixie"
or The Battle Hymn OF the Republic"
is the better tune. Dixie" was played
and this is literally true-sixteen
Stimes during yesterdays session Of the
kconvention. When the name of the
aillng clerk was announced the band
played Dixie" When Senator Robin
son accused the Republicans of ex-
'sravagance the band played Dixie"
;and when he declared roundly that
everybody was sick of war the band
raayed Dixie" and the organ joined in.
Mitchell Palmers forces are still
c;krrying the major part of the singing.
They began promisingly yesterday with
scune song about Keep Your Con-
science Clear" Everybody was all at
teIx.ion, but the expected line about
"2.25 per cent beer did not appear.
Th e rhyme is Sincere"

their memories fail them. They are not prepared to pass on the qualifications of teachers It indeed amusing to see how so many parents cling to their chldren's estimate of the qualification of teachers Do you think it would be to the point to dis cover the teachers estimate ot your child!
 One of the reasons in my opinion, for our detl- ciency is the old one of regularity in attendance We require written excuses for absence but 1t seems to be no trouble for children to get excuses Keep record of the ones you write and at the end of the month you will be surprised at the number. 1 believe l am cor rect in stating that 80 per cent of these absences are avoidable. It is desirable that pupils should be on time but tardness is for absence and we do expect require pupils to stay out because they tardy.
 Possibly more common reason for failure is the lack of HOME PREPARATION. From the Fifth Grade up the work is planned on the basis of work done out of school The minimum of outside prepara- ton is: Fifth and Sixth Grades, one hour; Seventh and Eighth Grades and one half hours; High School Grades two and one half hours No matter what excuse your child may make about this, take this opportunity to you that this is what we expect and if they not doing this they are not coming up to our requirements and will not do the best grade of work of which they capable About 20 per cent are meeting this requirement.
 believe the most prolific of failure is that of DISTRACTIONS the outside that take the minds of the children away from their work The place for the child on school nights is at HOME Ii he IS not here besides losing the time from his work and sleep he is filling his mind with things that will engage his attention during large part of the next day. once saw picture which supposed to represent cross section of boys brain the day after the circus-a chaotic mixture of elephants, tigers actors etc. This is very significant illustration of the con lition of mind in which many children come to the Marianna Schools each morning.
 *, Ido not wish to appear to ntrude upon your af- fairs but feel it my duty to say that the most dis tractng thing here is the unusual attention that is given bv school children to social affairs What ad- vantage is it to them to be social leaders at sixteen? You may think my ideas along this line anticipated and in order to keep your children from feeling left out you may allow them to continue in the mad whir in to which they have plunged themselves but you will do it at the expense for them of the most elevated and satisfactory happiness that life affordsthe spiritual pleasures of we'll trained and well informed mind. sad thought indeed for your contemplation when the sands of life low and it's vanes more ap parent.
