 Solemn religious services will mark the disinterment and bronze tablet will be placed over the graves crate the event. Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin, American Anbassa- dor George Harvey, the archbishop of Canterbury and other distin- guished percentages will be asked to participate in the authorization cere- monies at Tilbury, where an Ameri- can battleship will receive the bodies for conveyance to Savannah.
 It was from Tilbury, near Crave send that Oglethorpe and his Vep- turesome colonists set sail nearly 200 years ago for the promised land of America. The battleship will follow the same course as the quaint three- masted schooner in which Oglethorpe and his companions crossed the ocean.
 Answering the adverse criticism which arose in England over the dis turbance of the graves, Dr. Thorn well Jacobs, president of Oglethorpe university. who will take the body to America, said:
 "The proposal is neither private enterprise nor is it one involving the indiscriminate disinterment of the remains of others, but it is digni- fled request of one great people of anothar with the most reVerent and solemn purpose.

sTEERAGE REsPoNsIBLn


 Transatlantic travellers lulled ini the luxury of the spacious uppert decks of the modern ocean linc11 hardly realizes that the thousand CT more immigrants packed away in the steerage in a large measure respon- sible for the liners presence on the ocean. but the announcement of cur tailment in winter service, recently made by two of the largest companies, proves this to be the case. The com panies are preparing to withdraw many of their largest ships from tho American and continental routes for the reason that, due to the operation of the American immigration law, comparatively few immigrants will cross the Atlantic during the winter months.
 Such curtailment would not have been necessary in the old free-for-all immigration days. Although most of the salon cabins would have been empty due to lack of tourist travel, the steerage would have been just as crowded during the winter as in the summer. What the steerage pas senger lacks in per capita expend;- ture during the voyage they make up in numbers, and it is there that the steamship companies profit.

 Judge George W. Clark issued this signed order in striking the motion from the record:
 "It is the first case of the kind that has ever been called to my at- tention and if this sort of motion would be proper in this court, in my judgment. any bootlegger who had been violating the law and desires that there hLuld not be a grand jury to investigate his acts might inter- pose the same motion and be en- titled to consideration.

we go into the business of making money by games of chance and young men are indaced, to so into such places, thoughtless youth is easily at tracted there, or men who haven't good Judgment by experience. They lose their wages. they fall into debt, they, are perhaps led into more seri- ous crimes, because the game is usually loaded against them Shrewd men handle the dice, or the cards, or the pool of billiard game as the case may be, and you haven't got a chance, but the ayerag young man doesn't know it, He goes in there and tries to win something for noth- ing, to get something out of a lot tery and he gets experience and the gambler gets the money. and the community is made ten times worse on account of him."
 An aroused public opinion, was de- scribed by Judge Fort as one of the most powerful agencies for the bet terment of conditions. and the grand jurors, as citizens, were called upon to see that public opinion is aroused to the needs of the community and state. Public Opinion Commended.
 DO you know that the most severe
 
 is public opinion?" he continued. And if public opinion were strong ly enough aroused. you would not have so many law violations in this country. There Is no such thing as royal road to good government Each man has got to bear lis part, and sacrifice and toll. and stand and take the brunt of criticism in order to accomplish it."
 Turning to the enforcement of the prohibition laws, Judge Fort ex- pressed regret that the Eighteenth amendment and Volstead act had be- come the football of politics. He spoke of the example of the late President Harding in refusing to drink any liquors of any kind so as to give an example of observance of these laws to the rest of the coun- try.
 ''We have got to learn anew the lesson of good citizenship" he con. tinued. "If we are to have a good, law-abiding community we have got to consider what our example means to the community and what our influence means"

The cloud IS film

You feel on your teeth a viscous film. Under old-way brushing, much of it elings and stays, Soon it becomes discolored, then forms dingy coats. That is why 30 many teeth lose luster.
 Film also holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in 1t. They, with tar tar, arc the chief cause of pyorrhea.
 Thus film is the greatest enemy of tooth beauty and tooth health.
