In North America, more than IN
any other part OF the world, the
teeth are given a lot OF attention
I shall not admit that they have
enough care. but we do better than
they do across the pecan.
In England 7 was struck by the
general neglect of these useful and
beauty-giving organs. I am sure II
is not a mere coincidence that SO

thing.

TO discuss the possible effect OF
heredity upon the quality Of the

We can overcome the bad inheri-

SENATE PASSES
BILL GUSHING
SHORT SESSION

Washington, June 10.-The Norris
resolution, proposing a constitutional
amendment to eliminate "lame duck"
sessions of congress and change the
date of presidential inaugurations,
from March 4 to Jan. 2, was passed
for the fifth time Friday by the SEN
ate.
The same resolution has been pass
ed and sent to the house at each OF
the last four sessions of congress.
The first three times it was ignored
entirely by the lower branch and the
last time was defeated by a narrow
margin. Its chances of passing the
present. house are considered slight,
The object of the proposed amend
ment is to allow congressman to start
serving as soon as possible after their
election. Under the present system,
congressman do not take office until
more than a year after they are elect
ed unless the president calls a special
session.
If the amendment were adopted
senators and representatives would
start functioning two months after
/ their election.
Sessions of congress would start on
January 2, rather than the first week
in December and end on that date
rather than March A. The short ses
