Part of the British all-rail route
from India to the Mediterranean,
according to advices, was begun Sc
cretly during the war and was be-
ing completed from Quetta, in
northern India, to central Persia,
skirting the Afghanistan border.
The rail route from Palestine
would cross the Syrian desert, and
passing through Basra in southern
Mesopotamia, would effect juno
ton with the line completed from
India to southern Persia. With the
transfer of southern Syria from

to officials, only the southern Per-
sian link would be left outside pos
litical control, and even now this
link is under partial political con-
troll and wholly under British mill
tary.
1t is believed by officials here
that because Of the uncertainty OF
the Turkish settlement and the
possibility of the passing of control
of Constantinople from Great Bri-
tain, plans for the linking Of the
projected Mediterranean to India

Berlin to Bagdad system from

You can feel it with your tongue. It elings
to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays.
The ordinary tooth paste does not eAec-
lively combat it. Your tooth brush has left
much of it intact. And that clinging film
may do a ceaseless damage.
Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look
dingy. Film is the basis of tartar. It 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 Il. They, with
tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea- Also

SCOUTING IN THE SCHOOLS.

Chief Scout Executive James e..
West sends the following message to
all boy scouts In the schools of the
country:
"a true scout Is always on the alert
for opportunities to be Of service. In
many schools scouts are In charge of
the fire drills and first aid and safety
first training. They also conduct thor
ough school yard clean-ups, guard dan
gerous crossings and see that sanitary
conditions are In force In and out Of
school buildings. Are you and your
troop doing any Of these things2 If
not, get busy. Talk II over with your
scoutmaster and your teacher and see
II there isn't something which you can
do as scout to help your school.
"Remember especially that scouting
is what you make It. If you are a
scout and careless in your personal ap-
pearance and needless Of regulations
you are doing a great harm to the
movement and not being true scout
no matter how proficient you are In
signaling and fire building and the
rest. Scouting goes all through, Into
every thing you do.
~ wish every first-class scout would
determine to qualify for the merl,
badge In scholarship this year inc
make up his mind to get the most out
Of his books-by putting lot in"
