other memorials. we do not seek to
glorify war or to perpetuate hat
reds. We are commemorating not
war, but the courage and the devo-
ton and the sacrifice of those who
gave their lives for their fellows and
for their country. We raise these
because we are able to remember
the ideals which possessed us at the
time. We do not condemn Our own
action or belittle the high motives
and ideals which based our efforts
when we acknowledge that the
war was a catastrophe.
Here in the scenes which they
loved you have built loving monu-
ment to their memory. We can not
add to their glory, but we and our
descendants will be the better for
remembering them"

 FINE TRIBUTE ID LATE
 PRESIDENT HARDING

BEVERLY HILLS, Calf, June 20. (P)-Will Rogers said, Mighty glad to see MT. Hoover and Mr. Coolidge finally, after years of delay, go out and dedicate the Harding memorial.
 "Too bad they waited till Ohio looked politically doubtful and the odd thing about it is that they both owe their presidency to this mans death. If he had lived, one would have retired merely as a cabinet member and the other as just another ex-vice president.
 Harding was the most human of any of our late presidents. There was more of the every day man in him. If he had a weak ness, it was in trusting his friends and the man that don't do that, then there is something the matter with him.

CARE BY
CHILDREN URGED
Inspections Before School
Advised by Council.

At, least 80 per cent of all school
children have defective teeth &C
cording to the dental health council
of the Indiana State Dental Asso-
citation.
Every year, before the beginning
of the school term, the dental
health council advises that each
child be taken to the dentist to have
the teeth and mouth inspected.
THE teeth should be cleaned and
any cavities in either temporary or
permanent teeth should be filled.
1t is just as important to have tenn
porary teeth taken care of. as it is
the permanent. 1t likewise is as
important that every child should
acquire the habit of at least twice
daily brushing the teeth"
Teeth ache because they have
been neglected. When the substance
OF the tooth has been destroyed. the
tender sensitive pulp commonly
called the nerve is exposed. It is
irritation of the pulp that causes
pain. Unless the condition is
remedied quickly, the pulp will die"
