Dental Theme Painful,
Girl Dodges School

New York.-It was like pulling teeth
to get Carmelia De Count, fourteen. to
20 to school, Miss Margaret Manning,
attendance officer for the board Of edu.
cation. testified in the Flushing police
court.
She has remained away from school
ever since she was asked to write a
composition about her experience with
the dentist, she said. Health inspec-
tors after an examination of her mouth
at school two months ago, told her to
get her teeth fixed. After such painful
duty was performed her teacher asked
her to turn in an essay on the care of
the teeth and tell Of her experience in
undergoing treatment.
II was such q painful subject that
she decided that rather than write
about it she would stay home from
school.

Chevrolet Now Advertising
In 1000 Newspapers
Starts Cooperative Campaign In
Connection With Its Large
Dealer Organization

The Chevrolet Motor Company has
announced a cooperative advertising
&aign in connection with it's large
dealer organization. This campaign
is a further move by the Chevrolet
Motor Company in it's effort to obtain
the most economical distribution Of
its product. It is probable the most
comprehensive and efficient of the
great advertising campaigns in the
automotive industry. Approximately
1000 newspapers are being used.
Under this plan the Chevrolet Mo-
tor Company in reality has become
the advertising department of each OF
its dealers whom it provides with a
highly efficient and consistent adver-
ing campaign.
In addition, it becomes possible to
key local advertising with national
advertising and thus broadcast sin
gle advertising message at one time
in both national and local publications.
The cooperative feature of the plan
does not apply in financial way to
the national advertising used by the
Chevrolet Motor Company in the
principal magazines of the country
This advertising is paid for from the
the company without expense to the
dealers. The dealers continue to re-
ceive gratis the sales literature and
the effective window display service
of the company. These displays sup
plement the unified advertising plan.
In brief the plan is this:
The Chevrolet Motor Co. charges a
small amount for each car shipped to
dealers and credits it to the Chevro-
let Dealers Advertising Fund. To this
fund the company then adds a SUBJ
stantial contribution from it's own ad-
vertising budget.
The company plans the dealer adj
vertising campaigns, buys newspaper
space, purchases and prepares art
work, sends the advertisements to the
newspapers, directs the printing and
display of outdoor advertising, han
dies invoices and pays bills. The
dealers thus are relieved of vast a
mount of detail.
A desirable angle of the plan is a
guarantee to each dealer that every
dollar which he pays into the fund
will be spent in his district for news
. paper or outdoor display space, all of
the costs of preparing and placing the
advertising matter being more than
covered by the Chevrolet Motor Com
pany's contribution to the fund.

State And Peninsula News

Columbus Baker, SO, prominent
farmer of Wizards, died at the PENN
sula General Hospital, Salisbury, from
injuries received when he was struck
by a falling mine prop at the station
in Wizards. Baker was rushed to the
hospital following the accident but
died after every effort had been made
to save his life.
At the time of the accident the VIC
tim was loading mine props at the
station for his employers, Murphy &
Hayes of Milford, Del. One of the
chains supporting the suspended prop
broke, sending the heavy missile down
upon Baker, who was engaged in load
ing another prop.
Amputation of the leg left was
deemed advisable at the hospital but
failed to save the injured mans life.
The deceased was we'll known and
respected in the section where he had
made his home for many years. He
was active in civic affairs and though
vel advanced in years had always
been actively engaged in some type
of work. He had only been in the
service of Murphy & Hayes for short
time it is said.

the experience of Gil Huff, Wyoming
rancher, whose story of seeing the
north side Of Sheep mountain crumble
and fall across the Gros Ventre river
valley near here the other day, became

Huff said he was on horseback at

gan to move. He was riding near his
ranch, he said, when he saw this. He
turned and began a desperate ride for

He took his wife and daughter to a

SPORT NEWS

Washington and the Athletics are
struggling now with the western
teams, and are not finding the going
specially easy. At this writing, Wash
ington is only a few points ahead of
the Philadelphia team, and they seem
to follow one another very closely in
their wins and losses. When the Ath-
letics cop game, the Senators are
also there with the goods; and the
same can be said as to the games lost.
So the two leaders are moving along
together, and it may be that the ques-
ton of the pennant winner may not be
answered until the two teams fight it
out between themselves when they
return.

HEALTH CONFERENCES
DECLARED SUCCESSFUL
Ninety-Five Meetings Held And
Over 1000 Children Given
Physical Examination

| Child Health Conferences were helc
in nearly every section of the State
under the auspices of the Bureau OF
Child Hygiene of the State Depart
ment of Health, during the three
months, ending August 18th, accord.
! ing to reports from that Bureau
Ninety-one places in twenty counties
were visited; ninety-five conferences
were held, and over 1000 children,
ranging in age from babies in arms,
to their older sisters and brothers who
will enter school this fall, were given
a careful, physical examination. No
medical treatments were given, but
children in need of medical or dental
care, were referred by letter to their
own doctors.
Of the IS conferences-nearly half
were held in connection with the visit
of the Healthmobile - the "Child
Health Special" or the "Child Health
Bus" as it is called in Howard, Anne
Arundel, Prince George, Charles, St..
Mary's and Calvert counties. The
Especial" will spend the rest of the
season on the Eastern Shore, visiting
Queen Anne, Somerset and Wicomico
counties holding child health confer
ences in each place.
In connection with the child health
conferences that will be held during
the next few weeks, DR.. Knox, Chief
of the Bureau, said tive hope to reach
as many as possible of the five and
six year-olds before they are enrolled
in school. Our experience has shown
that the examinations frequently
bring to light some condition that
needs correction-something that may
seem insignificant now-possibly a
condition of the teeth, or it may be a
throat that needs looking after; or
it may be the eyes that need attention.
If these things are attended to now,
they may save a great deal of suffer-
ing and illness later on"
Two out of every three children ex-
amined so far, have needed dental at
tention. The Bureau owns portable
dental outfits, which are being used
in follow-up dental clinics in different
parts of the State.

A meeting Of the heirs of Lord An
derton Eaton was held in Easton last
Wednesday afternoon, when the mat
ter of the legacy of about $30,000,000
left to the heirs of the English lord
was discussed. Sufficient funds were
raised to pay for an investigation by
the London College of Heraldry and
Arms to ascertain if the records found
by the heirs in the last two years are
correct.
Lawyers in Europe and America
have been tracing the descendants of
the late Lord, and these records come
in a straight line down to the Grit
fifth family. Those vitality interested
are Charles F. Griffith, James B.
Griffith, L. Herbert Griffith, Clayton
Griffith and their immediate family.
1t is believed by the attorneys in
terested in the case that the inheri-
lance will be divided into 30 portions,
if the Griffith families are the direct
descendants. So far every indication
points to direct descendant of Lord
Eaton.
Herbert Balch is the local lawyer
having the matter in hand. The heirs
are very anxious to send him to
Europe to push the final settlement of
the estate, but Mr.. Balch wants to be
absolutely sure of his ground and is
waiting on the College of Heraldry
and Arms before making any further
steps.
