TO OBTAIN DENTAL SERVICE
Veterans, to Receive Treatment, Must
Comply With the Conditions
Prescribed.

An outline of the procedure for ex-
service men to obtain dental treatment
has been prepared by the national
service division Of the American Le-
gion.
Dental treatment will be furnished
by the bureau of war risk insur-
ance to veterans of the World war
under the following conditions:
l. Where a person has been award
ed compensation for dental disability.
2. When such treatment is neces-
sary for the cure of condition which
resulted from military service and is
the reason for which compensation
has been awarded.
3. In emergency cases which are
Immediately necessary for the relief
of conditions endangering the life Of
the patient or causing great pain.
Claimants who have not been award
ed dental disability, but feel they
should have such due to military
service, should Immediately file claim
in the regular manner; whereupon
they will receive an order from the
district medical supervisor to report
to the nearest dental examiner for ex-
animation and such emergency treat
ment as may be required. Approval
of the dental examiners report must
be made by fhe bureau of war risk
insurance.
To receive the benefits of the dental
laws, claimants must pursue their case
through the regular channels, as bills
contracted outside of the authority of
the bureau of war risk insurance will
not be paid, except where sufficient
evidence is produced that the case was
emergency or that the claimant was
ignorant Of his rights to dental treat
ment.

MISS GRACE SAGE BOOKED
To Appear Nov. 22, Under Auspices
 of Young Woman's Guild

The Young Woman's Guild of Pil- grim Church have completed ar engagements for a unique entertain ment to be given in the Town Hall on the evening of Tuesday, Novem- Der 22nd. Miss Grace Sage, the artist of the occasion is among the foremost opponents of the Play Re cital in America and is remembered here most pleasantly for the artistic character of her work on at least one previous visit.
 In the course of her last seasons engagements Miss Sage made some 250 appearances before a discrimin- ating public, including many college and university engagements, but her art has breadth and variety of ap- peal which finds response in every element of the American audience.
 Despite the fact that her work be- fore the public occupies her time so completely, Miss Sage is still retained as a member of the Faculty of the Leland Powers School of Expression in Boston.
 Canaan is indeed fortunate to number among it's seasons attrac- tions at least this one which is sure to be of the first quality.
 Subsequent notice will be given of the play in which Miss Sage is to appear. Tickets will soon be in the hands of members of the Guild and may be obtained from them.

NATIONAL OBSERVANCE
 OF CHILDREN'S WEEK
To Be Observed by Douglas Library, Nov. 18th
 to 18th

Many libraries in our own country and Canada are observing Children's Book Week. Douglas Library is planning to have part in the obser- vance of it this year. Each year more and more libraries are taking part in it.
 The name tells us why it was started-for the children.
 Every library, taking part, has on exhibition during that week as many books as it can-Books suitable for gifts to children.
 We invite all parents, and every one interested in children to come to the library and see these books on the regular library days, and Friday afternoon from two to five.
 No, we do not sell them. They are there as suggestions and helps in your selection for holiday gifts. We will be there to help you in any and every way we can.
 Children love books and are Sc proud to own them. They are always pleased to have library of their very own. Better than a book borl owed, is a book owned" Now :s good time to start a library for the children, or if they have one, to add to it.
 One of the most notable features of the 1921 Week is the gift to the Committee of the design of the Thomas Bailey Aldrich bookcase mentioned in "The Story of a Bad Boy", which now hangs in the Aid rich memorial, Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Mrs. Aldrich has gra- ciously allowed the design to be du- plicated so that it may be used to encourage boys, and girls as we'll, to build bookcases for their own per. sonal libraries. We hope to have some of these designs to give to the boys and girls.
 More books in the home means better reading by the children in the library"
 The first day of the Week this year, falls on the birthday of one be- loved by children-Robert Louis Stevenson. It would be very hitting if this day were observed in the schools during Children's Week.
