NOT YET
ON DASH POLE
National Geographic Society
Receives Denial of Recent
London Report.

Capt. Roald Amundsen, discoverer
Of the south pole and now leader Of
a north polar expedition. has not left
to the pole. The denial Of the recent
report from London that the Amund-
sen dash had actually begun was re-
ceived in Washington today by Gill
bert Grosvenor, president of the Ma
tional Geographic Society. in a cable
gram from the Norwegian Geograph-
ical Society.
According to the earlier report from
Christiania, published in London March

two men. Had this report proved
true Amundsen's dash, if successful.
might have brought him to his goal
on the same day on which the pole
was discovered by Peary In 1903
april 81.
Contrary to Plans.
Geographers who are familiar with
Capt. Amundsen's plans will not be
surprised at the denial of the report
that he has left his ship. for such a de-
parture at this time would be con-
trary to all the plans Of his expe-
dition.

Nansen's example in 1893.
Nansen was frozen into the Ice Sep

1895. did he reach a point where he de-
cided to leave his ship-400 miles from
the goal But this distance was too
great for a successful dash to the pole.
Did Not Intend to Leave Ship.
.Profiting by Nansen's experience.
Amundsen did not intend to leave his
ship SO far from his goal. 1t was gen.
orally estimated that the drift across
the Polar seas would take three years.
Therefore, barring unforeseen circum-
fstances, 1t is not probable that the
leader Of the present expedition will
leave his ship for q dash to the pole
until 1891. Tho coming summer months
probably win be spent in drifting, and II
the currents and ice behave as they did
with Nansen's shin the Fran. the
Maude by next spring will be brought
| to q point from which Amundsen can
strike for the pole with every hope OF
success.
Scientists ara eagerly awaiting news
concerning the use Amundsen win be
able to make Of the two airplanes which
he carried with him into the arctic.

Teeth You Enw
You See Them Evervwher
AN Statements AHp,0ued BY High Dental Autho,ities
The New-Day Method

Pepsodent is based on pepsin, the di-
gestant of albumin. The film is al
luminous matter. The object of Pepso-
dent is to dissolve it, then to constantly
combat it.
But pepsin must be activated, and the
usual agent is an acid harmful to the
teeth. So this method long seemed barred.
Science, however, has discovered HARM
less 'activating method. and active pepsin
can be every day employed.
Authorities agree that this tooth paste
meets other new requirements. So it
represents in three ways the ideal modern
dentifrice. And it means new era in
teeth cleaning.
Evening star., 1920-04-06
The Trouble is Film

Teeth become coated with film. That
viscous film which you feel with your
tongue clings to teeth. It enters crevices
and stays.
The tooth brush does not end it. The
ordinary dentifrice does not dissolve it.
The soapy tooth paste even helps it cling:
Twice a year, perhaps, you have a
dentist remove it. But in the meantime it
may do ceaseless damage. Thus mil
lions find that. despite all brushing, teeth
discolor and decay.
Tooth troubles have been constantly
increasing. Few people have escaped
them. And the modern dentist knows
that most of them have been caused by
film.

FOR AIR MEDICAL BRANCH.

Corps is expected to materially re-
duce fatalities among flyers on, active

nouncement. Statistics compiled by
British military authorities were
quoted as showing that during the
first year of the war 80 per cent of
the deaths among British aviators
were recorded as due to physical de-
fects of pilots, per cent to de-
fectfve planes and 2 per cent to

After the establishment of the air
medical service, which made a spe-
cial study of the qualifications neces-
sary in an aviator. the percentage
Of deaths due to the faults of the

How Film Wrecks Teeth

It is this film-coat that discolors mot
the teeth. Film 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.
