Film was found to be the basis of tartar.
Germs by the millions breed in it. And
they, with tartar, are the chief cause Of
pyorrhea and most gum disorders.
Thus there was universal cali for an
effective film removing method. Ordinary
brushing was found ineffective. Now two
effective combatants have been found, ap-
proved by nigh dental authority and en-
bodied in tooth paste called Pepsodent.

Firms the Gssms
Pepsodent acts nrst to eurdle the film.
Then it thoroughly removes the film in
gentle safety to enamel
At the same time, it acts to firm the
gums-Pepsodent provides, for this pur-
pose, the most recent dental findings in
gum protection science knows today. Pep
sodent also multiplies the allkalinity of the
saliva. And thus aids in neutralizing
mouth acids as they form.
1t multiplies the starch digestant of the
saliva. Thus eombats starch deposits which
might otherwise ferment and. form acids.

SPANISH LANGUAGE
BEING CORRUPTED
Academy Helpless in Face of
Newly Coined American
Phrases.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. October 16--The Span
ish Academy has issued a new edition
of it's official dictionary containing all
| the words in the Spanish language
that are pure. fixed and splendid y
, But the modern Spaniard and Spanish
American will continue to talk about
radio. automobiles and other current
interests in mongrel terms which the
dgnified academy persistentlN ig-
nOrec.
The hopelessness of the academy's 5
battle is due TO the greater power of
outside influences over the Spa
people. especially in the Western
Hemisphere. according to Earle Is.
James. teacher of SPANS AZ the
Hamilton Institute
Influence Of Sports.
Most Of the modern sports. amuse-
ments. and inventions are Of English
and American origin. Mr.. James points
out in a report on American speech
and these new things are described to
tho Spanish people in the latest Eng
lsh terms through the movies, trav'
cling statesmen and the magazines.
Inventors and nufacturers per

And so the traveller in Latin America
finds people and signs speaking OF
hot cakes, cocktails. chicklets. jello
,ilv.cups. eskimo pies, sodas, broad
ca sting and what not.
In the new edition of the dictionary
which the academy has guarded since
1726 the Spanish linguists have has
tened to make amends for their slow
ness in keeping up with the times
Mr.. James finds. The Spaniard who
would speak with beauty and preci-
sion NAV now safely use such terms
as aviacion. csblegram. radiotele
fonia. linotipia pianola and subma
rinO.
Not all Spanish photographers are
SO conservative as the academy mem
hers he says:
10000 New Words
"As early as 1879 Saliva had com
riled a dictionary containing some
96 600 words not accepted by the
academy. The more modern Alemany
dictionary admits 10000 terms which
are unsanctioned. but which. il as
srres us. are used by careful writers.
OF this number half are technical
terms and america nsmos."
Mr.. James concludes that the
academv's hopeless struggles furnish
IAN eloquent argument for those who
oppose attempts to StandardlHe te
English tongue by the establishment OF
an American or English academy. The
language of people must be dy'
ma mic. not static, and any regulation
must keep not even abreast but ahead
of scientific. social, or cultural devel'
opment."

 Dinners in advance of many of the dances have been aher informal festivities and there in prospect tose formal functions that may be cassed the winter dnners which intended for the older mem of society," Invitations for such dinners have been going out early, of them for dates well into next month The invitation to dine and to dance does not count for much those sent for the home dinners of the winter which always follow every holiday As far the really ng concerned dinners or suppers not important as dances, but their elders certainly enjoy the home affairs which often followed by cards or music.
