Intervene IN House
OF David Faction
al Warfare

BENTON HARraR. Mich. July -.
-Pl-Possibility Of state interven-
tion In the dispute between factions
warning for control Of the House of
David Colony here presented itself
today. Rival groups headed by
Mary Purnell and III. +. Dewhirst
had a fight yesterday.
X. V. Clardy. assistant attorney
general. said the state is definitely
concerned over property damage re-
sulting from clashes Of the belliger-
ents. A receiver for the colony has
been appointed by the state and ac-
ton looking to liquidation Of its real
assets is being held up pending a
hearing on a restraining order.
Some sixty of the colonists were
involved in the fighting. according
10 authorities, who were called TO
quell the disturbance. The trouble.
officials said, arose over seizure OF
IL crates of cherries by followers
Of Mary Purnell in an orchard man
aged BY Ray Hornbeck, who is identi-
fled with the Dewhirst faction.
After the invaders ignored his or
der to yscate the orchard, Hornbeck
is alleged 10 have struck Max Blume
one Of the group. and the fight was
on. Local deputies were called and
after restoring order, took Hornbeck
TO Jail, where he furnished bond and
was released.
Returning to the colony Hornbeck
is said 70 have engaged Paul Per-
rodt, another follower Of Mary, in
a dispute while rival factionists
gathered around and shortly hot
words were resumed on a free for
all basis. A second call sent police
h%urrying to the colony and after
they had pried the disheveled men
and women apart, Perrodt and Horn
beck were taken TO Jail.
iii feeling between Mary and Dew
hirst, the latter chief Of the organi-
zation's legal staff, manifested itself
shortly after the death Of Benjamin
Purnell and reached a climax about
a month ago when Mary ordered the
income from colony enterprises
turned ver to her instead of the
colony depository. Dewhirst, Off
Gals learned, issued contradictory
orders and the colony since has been
divided into hostile camps.

McALLEN. July 12.-Protests Of
n Southern Pacific's intention to
vaeate an order Of the interstate
commerce commission granting the
railroad the right to extend its lines

sent TO the railroad and commission
by MeAllen citizens.
The commission also was asked TO
notify the citizens of McAllen when
the plea TO vacate the order will be
heard in order that a McAllen rep
~1~eSentation may be present.
The protests call attention to the
TACT that McAllen took a large part in
the fight to secure the Southern
facific's entrance in the Valley. This
interest was taken. the protests say.
Tor two reasons. First, because the
valley needed the railroad and sec
ondly. because McAllen was led to
believe the road would run from Nc
Allen 10 Hidalgo where a connection
with the Mexican National Lines
would be effected. This would have

Health Hints
Hl DIR. MORRIS EISHEElN
Editor Journal OF the American
Medical Association and Of Hy-
yeia, the Health Magazine


No matter how beautiful a person
may be. an open mouth revealing
lecayed or stained teeth with discol-
cred and badly formed gums will
ruin the effect OF the facial appear
ance.
Of late so much has been writ
ten on the care of the teeth that
everyone should know that badly
chosen diet during infancy and
childhood will lead to defective and
decayins teeth.
The healthIuncss and appear
ance OF the gums is greatly de-
pendent Oil the cleanliness of the
teeth and on factors of irritation.
Because OF poor tooth structure
or deficient cleaning. food may re-
main between the teeth. This food
acts as an irritating substance and
also as Il point at which bacteria

tcrials which act further TO caus"

If a molar tooth is lost, the teet h
on either side Of il will begin TO
tip toward each other, eventually
practically closing the space be-
tween them.
When. these two teeth move. other
! teeth next TO them will also be-
| gin to tip. so that finally extern

similar condition occurs not infre-
quently in other parts of the mouth

! When sufficient number o;
teeth are lost and are not repla ced
by artificial teeth. extra work an.
strain is put upon those that re-
main. SO that they may wear more
rapidly or as a result of movement
become loose.
Finding the Cause
| It is impossible to assign any
single cause for receding gums. EN-
pert dentists list the accumulation
of tartar at the place where the
teeth Join The gums. poorly finished
Filings or inlays and rough edges
on teeth or artificial dentistry as
contributing factors.
A diet which does not keep the
human tissue IN a proper state OF
nutrition. a dict deficient in import

If such condition becomes an.

not only to the teeth themselves

and hygiene.

Fat to sing.
This is the advice of Miss Halle
Stiles of Syracuse. N. Y, the only
American girl starring at the
Opera Comique here. She spends
, almost as much time keeping her

1T is true that she must protect

barometer of health. but too much
flesh is worse than too little. You
