She revealed that President

necessity of continuous speeches
by women in every nook and
corner of the country. She said:
THE wisest thing ever said
is what the President said in
his inaugural speech, We have
nothing to fear but fear Fear
Is based on a lack of infOrma-
ton, and this is the weapon the
Republicans are using. 1t Is .
despicable weapon, in my
opinion, because it can't stand
on facts.
AS long as we are the Demo
cratic party of Jefferson, we
shall have to fight the special
privilege class and the vested
interests. They are function.

Teeth regain dazzling whiteness

EILM is the cause of dull, dis
i colored teeth. 1t is ALSO the
cause of serious tooth and gum
disorders. Run your tongue across
your teeth and you will feel this
film. 1t absorbs stains from food
and smoking and turns white teeth
dull. 1t clings to teeth and hardens
into tartar. Germs by the millions
breed in it. And germs, with tar
tar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea.
Ordinary brushing fails to remove
film successfully. So dentists urge
the special film-removing dentifrice
called Pepsodent.

First, Pepsodent curdles film,
then removes it in gentle safety to
enamel. No other way will make
teeth as sparkling white.
Pepsodent contains no pumice,

it for cleaning the soft teeth of
children.

It is commonly thought that the
introduction of machinery into in
dustry has reduced the number Of
men employed. When the linotype
was invented forty years ago there
were $4,000 men employed In the
printing business. Today there are
541,761 employed in the printing
business. Some might say that but
for the linotype there would be sew
eral times this many employed. On
the other hand the introduction Of
machinery into business has made
it possible to produce printing much
cheaper and has resulted In more Of
its being used than would be used
If the slow methods were still en-
ployed.

In this effort. Ten groups Of widely

THE PRINTING PRESS AND
PROSPERITY

Since it's first beginnings the
Printing Press has been recognized
as a prosperity-builder, as well as a
contributor to human happiness and
understanding.
It has aided our national we'll
being in many ways. BY spreading
knowledge of new ideas and new
products, by telling the producer
how his goods may be improved
and the consumer where they may
be obtained, it has brought about
that wide interchange of ideas and
products which is the basis of all
progress and prosperity.
For the worker it has boosted the
purchasing power of wages by low
ering the cost of what he buys. For
the seller it has increased profits,
even at reduced prices, by greatly
expanding his market.
Those are the withdrawing
powers of the Printing Press when
it engages in its normal functions.
But there are theorists who adj
vocate use of the Printing Press as
q prosperity-builder in quite diff
SeTent way.
They want to use it to create
money, instead of wealth.
They seek to encourage the belief
that if the presses at Washington
simply print a lot more dollar bills,
without additional reserves to sus-
tain their value, everybody can get
rich. They ignore the teachings Of
experience reckless currency
Imitation boosts all prices and there
by lowers the purchasing value in
every pay envelope.
The two uses should not be con-
fused.
Behind the output of the press
which prints our newspapers, our
hooks, our magazines and our adj
vertisements is all the productive
strength of the country. History
has proved this.
Behind the output of the press
which prints recklessly inflated cur
Iency is misleading theory
which breeds bitter disappointment.
History has proved that. too.
