Incidentally

The famous blood builder, Guides
Pepto-Mangan, can be had in tablet
form, as we'll as in liquid. Some peo-
pie prefer Pepto-Mangan tablets to
the liquid. They are put up in a
convenient package. There are people
who take the liquid Pepto-Mangan
at home morning and night, and take
the tablets at noon time. a
incidentally the liquid and the tab
let form of Guides Pepto-M angan are
the same. Any druggist can supply
this well-known blood builder. Ply
sicians have prescribed GUIDES Pepto-
Mangan for years. 1t restores the
blood to its normal healthy state by
increasing the number of red cells.
Men, women and children who are
run down, weak pale and sicklv
regain normal health by helping
the blood to get back its strength.
Look for the name "Gude's Pepto-

CANCEL DAWSON
STREET DANCING
Church Objection Takes This Fea-
ture Off Community Sale
Program

DAWSON Nov. 9.-There will be
no street dancing at the three-day
community sale here the last three
days this week, despite the announce
ment earlier that this form of amuse-
ment would form a part of the public
TTo2ram. Here are the reasons, the
first being resolutions adopted by the
board of stewards of the Methodist
church, and the second joint action
by the ministers Of Dawson:
Whereas, a street dance is an
nounced to be held in connection with
the coming community sale;
And, whereas, dancing is by impli-
cation plainly repugnant to the spirit
and teaching of the Bible;
And, whereas, dancing is contrary
to the rules of our church;
"And, whereas, dancing is damag-
ing to the morals of those engaging
in it and especially harmful to the
morals of the young;
And, whereas, street dancing helps
to give a town bad reputation
therefore be it resovled:
First, that we deplore the fact
that those in charge of the arrange
ments for the said community sale

HOUSE APPROVES
MATERNITY e|[L
Vote 279 to SO on Measure
for Money Aid to States
for Motherhood.

The House late yesterday passed in
amended form the Sheppard-Towner
maternity bill, previously approved
by the Senate. The measure now goes
to conference.
The vote was 27s to 80 and a group
of women who had been watching the
progress of the bill from the gal
leries applauded when the result was
announced.
Opposition to the measure was
voiced chiefly on the ground that 1t
would infringe on states rights.
During debate yesterday Miss Alice
M. Robertson, republican. Oklahoma.
only woman member of the House.
urged defeat of the bill, while its
passage was advocated by Representa-
tive Mondell, the republican leader.
Children's Bureau to Act.
The bill provides for cooperation
between the federal government and
states in the protection of maternity
and infancy. Administration of its
provisions would be by the children's
bureau, with an advisory board con-
sisting of the chief of the bureau.
the surgeon general of the public
health service and the United States
commissioner of education.
1t provides that $4,000 of federal
funds shall be turned over to each
state next July l and that annually
thereafter for f1ve years $1,240.00o
shall be available. The federal
government would contribute out
right $4,000 each year. after next July
!. to each state and an additional
$4,000 provided the state contributes
q like amount The balance Of the
annual fund would be distributed
among states according to population
with each state required to match the
contribution Of the federal govern
ment.
Miss Robertson Opposes.
Miss Robertson IN her speech took
a hing at club women who, she said,
sit at ease in comfortable homes
worrying about other peoples children
and get a thrill over teacups by passing
resolutions designed to bring about a
new order in governmental affairs.
She declared that the bill would
interfere with effective work now be-
ing done by individuals and by state.

I'm not mother, you know" she
said. "but God has given me a
mothers heart"
She was frequently applauded by
both proponents and opponents of the
