placed on the factors that govern the
lives of adolescent boys-their compan-
ions, their environment, their reading,
the food they eat, etc. At this age is
determined whether the boy will de-
velop into a cheerful or surly man, gen.
erous or selfish, intelligent or dull,
ambitious or INDECENT.

TEETH

Clearly we know that teeth have
Nerves, but are they possessed of
Brains" too? Evidently yes; for they
seem to KNOW exactly the attitude
you take toward them.
Treat them right, and there they
stand in dog-like fashion ready to
serve you. Abuse and neglect them
and there they stand ready to leave
you-but not before they have struck
back and wreaked their vengeance in
the form of pain and suffering.
Sighting your teeth or neglecting
your gums is therefore losing propo-
sition. You lose your sleep, you lose
your health, you lose your money and
above all you loose your teeth. All
of which goes to show that dental
examination every six months is
good thing.
Dental examination Is regular ser
vice which render without charge or
obligation. Phone for your appoint
ment.

Police Report Reveals
Startling Growth Over
Period OF Years.

Drunkenness in Ell Centro has
reached a higher mark almost each
year since the passing of the pro-
hibition amendment, according to
a startling array of figures compiled
today by the local police depart
ment for United States Department
of Justice use in a prohibition in
vestigation.
The report covers the years be-
tween 1915 and the present year,
and is divided into three classifi-
cations, drunk arrested, those ar
rested for being drunk and dis
orderly, and those for drunk driv-
ing.
Before the adoption of the pro-
hibition amendment by the states
on January il. 1920, the police re-
port shows that drunkenness re-
manned at a fairly low average, as
did the other two classifications. In
the last two years before adoption
of the amendment only Is and 80,
respectively, were arrested for
drunkenness. In the five years be-
fore passing of the amendment
only four persons were arrested for
drunken driving.
Each year alter 1920 shows an
increase in the number arrested for
drunkenness. Showing the extreme
ends of the report, and the amount
to which drunkenness has increaS-
ed, in 1921 only 10 persons were ar
rested for drunkenness, while in
1880 arrests totaled ATT. No arrests
were made on drunk and disorder
ly charges in 1921, while in 1890
these arrests reached a total of "a
One person was arrested for drunk
en- driving in 1921, while last year
46 were arrested on that charge.
Arrests for drunkenness for ev-
cry year, beginning with 1915 and
ending with 1880, as shown in the
police report, are as follows: 80, 70
l2O, Is, 80, "a, 10. 80, 81, "a, 100, I'll
1876, 243, 331, ATT.
Arrests on drunk and disorderly
charges during the same years in
the order of their time, were as
follows: l, 3, 7, II, 2, 7, 0, 8, 4, 0

decided that A. l.. Hodges and E

statement made III the arraign-
ment today.
