Pulled Teeth With Fingers

The work of old-time Chinese
dentists is ludicrously primitive. The
operator extracts all teeth with his
finger. From youth to manhood he IS
trained to pull pegs from a wooden
board. and this training changes the
aspect of the hand. and gives him
finger grip that is equivalent to
lifting power of three or four hun
dred pounds. For toothache he en-
ploys opium, peppermint oil, cinna-

GREEK ARMY's RECORD MARCH
Commander In Chief Says No Modern

stacles to Overcome.

With the Greek Army in AnatoIia.-
When the Greek army set itself the
task of capturing Angora it had little
conception Of the enormous difficulties
of travel that would beset it in the re-
mote reaches Of Asia Minor.
The army has had to traverse roads
which may be best compared to the

pioneer trails that existed on the
western plains of the United States
in the early forties. Where thorough
fares have existed at all they have
been of sand or rough, broken stone.
In order to avoid Kemal's powerful
defensive positions along the Sakaria
river, to the southwest of Angora, the
Greeks undertook a great detour to
the southeast Of Eski-Shehr, intend
ing to flank the nationalist army and
cut off it's retreat In this desoate
southern area they encountered des-

Col. Theodore Roosevelt was talk

fills teeth, but he does it so poorly
that the filings fall out after few
months. There is an element of super
stition in his work, for he asserts
that all dental troubles are brought on
by tooth worms, and he always shows
the nerve pulp to the patient as such
a worm. For humbugging purposes,
also. the dentist carries about in his
pocket some white grubs, and after
he has extracted a tooth he shows a
grub to the sufferer as the cause of all
the trouble.

Giving The Peoples Money
Away.

Senator Smoot, of Utah, is conced-
ed to be one of the best-equipped
members of the Senate in his know
ledge of Government business and in
his grasp of national problems and
legislation. He almost always knows
what he is talking about and is rarely
guilty of exaggeration or political
sensationalism. When, therefore,
in commenting on Senator Calder's
amendment to the Legislative, Exc
cutive and Judicial Appropriation
bill, giving bonus of $40 to each
mechanic employed in the navy yards
and arsenals, he asks IF the Senate
is going crazy" the average taxpay-
er will feel that the Utah Senator has
good reason for protesting. The CAL
der bonus means the payment from
the Treasury and the assessment on
taxpayers of ST. 10000 for the ben
eft of men who, Senator Smoot says,
are already receiving a wage of 81
cents an hour.
Both Democrats and Republicans
are protesting great devotion to econ
omy and great love for the poor tax
payer, and yet the Calder amend
ment was adopted by vote of AZ to
20. In other words, AZ Senators vot-
ed to give away S17, 100000 of the
peoples money to a special class,
who are being paid for their work at
the rate of more than s. day. The
Senators who voted for this amend
ment owe it to themselves and the
country to explain their position.
And If they do not do SO voluntarily
their constituents should demand an
explanation. baltimore Sun Editor

The Clarion Publishing Co., :
Thurmont, Md.
Dear Sirs:-I would like to have you
publish this little note of thanks for an
evenings entertainment furnished by the
"Gem" moving picture parlor to lone
some travelling salesman who was ma
rooned in your town over night. l would
like to know how the management of the
"Gem" can get away with the admission
as Oh arged, especially from the point of
the old films that they are unloading on
the public. During the show the films
broke four (D times in fifteen minutes
or at the rate of sixteen O6) times in
one hour or during the entire length of
the show of two hours. films broke thir-
tytwo (32) times, by actual count.
With all Of the films that can be had
why is it that the intelligent citizens of
Thurmont are inflicted with the disease
of being tight-mouthed and afraid to voice
their disapproval. Judging from the
odors eminating from the floor ard per-
meating the entire hall, it leads a strang-
er to believe that the mountaineers or
cork crackers have not removed their
footgear for quite sometime. Let me
tell you brother if lam ever marooned in
your town again nix on the movies GEM
for mine unless there is IA change in the
management and the policy. To add to
my discomfort, returned to the hotel
and was locked out completely, the hotel
evidently closed about $50 for the night.
Chief clerk, bellhop and chef were evil
IDENTIFY gassed as it took me what seemed
to be two hours before received any re-
Spouse to my heavy pounding and riot
calls. Being stranges in your town, |
was unable to locate your town bell to
arouse the populace. No wonder your
town is now as it was Is years ago.
Yours very truly,

State Police Begin Duties.
Squad In Charge OF Sergeant
Smith Patrol Highways.
Man At ArmOry Always.

On Monday morning last Sergeant
Charles W. Smith, and his squad of
State Policemen commenced patrol
ing the highways of the Frederick
district which comprises Frederick,
Carroll, Howard and Montgomery
counties of Maryland. They will
keep a sharp lookout for auto jacks
and robbers and do general police
work on the state highways.
The Headquarters of the squad are
located at the Armory in Frederick
where one man will always be on du
ty. As soon as a holdup occurs on
the highways the victim of the hold
up may at once telephone to the head
quarters of the State police in the
Armory. The man on duly will then
notify the state policeman closest to
the scene of the robbery. He will
know where each policeman is locat-
cd.
Sergeant Smith said he saw no rea.
son why a member of his flying squad
should not be able to arrive at the
scene of a holdup anywhere from
half an hour after the crime had been
committed and while the trail of the
fleeing robbcr or autoiack was still
fresh.
This new constabulary lie being con
Quoted in connection with the Office
of the Commissioner of Motor Vehic-
les. They have authority to make
arrests for violations of the automo-
bile laws of the state and derive their
authority to make arrests for greater
crimes from that section of the law
which permits any law abiding citi-
zen to arrest robber or other GRIM
inal.
The plan was adopted by Governor
Richie and Automobile Commission
er Baughman for the purpose of try
ing to check automobile thefts and
holdups on the state highways.
1t has been suggested that each
member of the state police be made
a deputy sheriff in every county in
the state. 1t is believed that this
would broaden the powers of each in
dividual policeman.
From this time on the highways of
Frederick and other counties will be
policed az never before.
