Science has sought ways to COM

which proved effective in many
careful tests. One disintegrates
the film at all stages of formation,
one removes it without harmful
securing.
Authorities have endorsed these
methods. A new-type tooth paste
has been created to apply them
daily. The name is Pepsodent
Leading dentists everywhere be-
gan to advise it. Now careful peo-
pie of some so nations employ this
tooth paste daily.
This short test is convincing
The user of Pepsodent sees at
once results which old ways never
brought.
The new benefits are necessary.
Pepsodent multipIes the alkalinity
of the saliva. That is there to neu-
tralize mouth acids. It multiplies
the ptyahn in saliva. That is there
to digest starch deposits on teeth
The combined results bring one
new conception of what brushing
should accomplish.

twelve cities so listed the plan had
never been in operation.
In other cases where the plan was
tried and discarded the cities were
so small, municipal affairs so sim
pie, that there was no need for a
full-time, paid city executive.
And in nearly every instance
where the plan was abandoned it
was found that the city manager
was created by ordinance and not
by a charter provision.
Adoption of commission manager
provisions in the city charter re-
quires submission to the people. The
plan must be ratified by a majority
of the voters.
Where 1t is provided for by city
ordinance only, no vote of the people
is necessary. And it is subject to
all the notifications and nullifca-
tons probable from the changing
political complexion Of the ordin.
ance making body.
In such cities the city manager
and his job become inextricably en-
meshed in politics.
So the mortality of ordinance
created managers Is high.
A commission manager plan op-
Grating by virtue of a charter pro-
vision IS assured a degree of per-
manence and stability. 1t has time
to prove itself by its works.
And it usually does.
For in the sixteen years since the
first city manager came into Of
fee only four cities have abandoned
the plan by a vote of the people.
Another uestion frequently en-
coUntered in any discussion OF the
commission manager form of city
government is the question Of it's
applicability to large cities.
Say Of the size Of indianapolis.
Business Is Business
business is business" retorts the
student of the plan.
The same basic rules apply
whether it is the business OF the
Ford Motor Company, or the opera
ton Of a one-man ax-handle factory
in Haughville.
The functions of Government are
the same in an Indiana town Of 5000
and New York City.
The only distinction is in size.
If the city manager prove a profit
able investment in 4 small place.
a large city should find him pro-
po%rtionately more profitable.
But to date very few cities Of con
siderable size have adopted the plan.
It has spread most rapidly among
small cities.
Even the warmest advocates OF
the plan readily admit that.

Of water in tin kegs on each wagon
BY this method the enormous ex-
pense of engaging a large force Of
additional porters to carry sufficient
water for the needs of the expedi-
ton across che thirst country
would be obviated. And. by march
ing day and night with hardly a stop
for two and a half days, the first
water course could be- reached with
out mishap or lack of drinking
water.
Owing to the beautiful moon
light at this time of the month no
real difficulties would be experienced
in the night marching. The only
real unpleasantness Of that journey
to the edge Of the Sotik country
would be the inability TO wash, due
to the scarcity Of water and the
discomfort Of sleeping for a few
hours on the bare ground in the
cold nights, with nothing for cover
but a great-coat.
Heller and Loring rode off after
breakfast in camp, so as to have
time to hunt for specimens Of rare
mammals and big game at a re-
nowned spot in the Kedong Valley,
while Kermit helped C~unninghame

rangement Of the loads that each of
the 200 porters was to carry. Colo.

his tent, until a hasty luncheon was
snatched before time for departure.

first to move off. Ullyat had blazed

FIGURES SHOW

Note-This is the third Of a series of
articles on modern city government.
BY NELSON

by GA4LORD
The figures Of the growth of the
city manager plan year after year
are the best indications that this
scheme of government is as success
ful in practice as in theory.
Each ear witnesses its adoption
by thirty or forty municipalities.
Between 80 per cent and 95 per
cent of all changes in city govern
ments at present are toward the city
manager plan.
And it is growing most rapidly
in those sections where It is best
known.
In Michigan thirty-six municipali-
ties have this form of government.
In Virginia, where the plan origi-
mated. there are seven cities with a
population Of 10000 or more in 1920.
Six of these cities have the commits
sion form of government.
California in 1920 had fourteen
commission manager cities; today
there are thirty-two.
And so runs the tale wherever
it has been tried.
Space forbids the presentation Of
reports of its specific accomplish
ment in VARIOUS cities.

Rocky Mountains, Mexico and else

US many a good story Of his adven-

One Of his pest stories made a
great impression on me by it's quaint
humor.
On his ranch in the West he had a
splendid type of man as foreman,
whose name was Hell Roaring" Bill
Jones. It so happened that Jones
was the sheriff of the county, and
Roosevelt was his deputy sheriff.
