$4,000 SOUGHT
IN ACTION TO
QUIET TITLE

Damages in excess of $39, 900 are
sought by B. J. Skupen in his quiet
title action and damage suit against
the Imperial Irrigation district
which is set for trial before an out
side judge in Imperial county super
ior court November 16.
The case was filed June 20, 1881.
1t will be tried before a jury and
is expected to require weeks time.
The double barreled case against
the district was based on title diff
ficulties and the alleged damage to
a duck club because the district
raised the level Of Salton sea by
draining irrigation water into it.
He asks $4,000 for loss of busi-
ness at his duck club for three years
$4,000 for loss of his ponds, $1,25C
for loss of tanks, $3.50 for loss OF
blinds, $500 for loss of two miles OF
fences, and 5000 for the loss of i'm
provements and the cost of moving
others. The damages total $4,000
! Skupen asks that the district be re.
strained from raising the sea leve
any further by draining water from
the Colorado river into it.
Harry Horton, present district
chief counsel, was the plaintiffs at
torney when the case first was
filed. He later became district CHIEF
counsel and a change of attorney.

Crawford home.

"The woman held the baby and
looked sick. The dog acted like he
was trained and the dog that
took the baby to the house was
trained to do it." The baby, which
weighs eight pounds, is in perfect
health, a midwife summoned to
the Crawford home, said.
1T was just about the fall of
night" Mrs. Crawford related, as

That the Commission is DESTROYS of being entirely fair

Mr.. Wise said in commenting on the

The Three C's
Of Mouth Health
Subject OF Speech
Chief Of Dental Association
Division Addresses Radio
Audience From California

Speaking to a radio audience in
connection with the annual meeting
of the American Dental Association
at San Francisco, recently, Dr. Rich
ard c. Leonard, Chief of the Division
of Oral Hygiene of the Maryland
State Department of Health discussed
the three C's of mouth health-Con-
struction, Care and Cleanliness. They
are like the three Rs of education
he said in their essential Importance.
Construction of the teeth" DR..
Leonard continued "starts before a
child is born. The development con-
tinues in infancy and goes on into
early manhood and womanhood. The
last of the permanent teeth are not
fully developed until between the
18th and 25th year of life.
"The teeth are built largely of min
eral salts, notable those which con-
tain calcium and PHOSPHORUS. The
necessary tooth building materials
and the vitamins that are required
for the maintenance of strong, healthy
teeth are found in certain foods.
Since the formation of the teeth be-
gins during the prenatal period, it is
obvious that food well supplied with
these elements must be included, first,
in the diet of the mother, and later
in that of the individual.
Experience has proved that cows
milk, dairy products, eggs; green
leafy vegetables, whole grain cereals
and fresh fruit juices, especially OF
oranges and other citrus fruits and
tomatoes are the best sources of the
construction elements necessary to the
production of sound teeth and the
maintenance of mouth health.
"Now a word as a Care: By Care
l mean regular inspection of the teeth
by dentist and the prompt correc-
ton of defects. This should begin by
the time child is two or three years
old and must be continued Throughout
life. The earlier such care is started
the better it is for the individual
Tooth decay is not condition. 1t is
Tooth decay is not condition. 1t is
the world. Being important and fan
reaching in it's results, it should be
prevented Or promptly corrected a:
soon as discovered. Like other dis
eases, tooth decay, if neglected, ma!
lead to serious consequences. Syste
matte diseases, eye trouble, heart con
ditions, rheumatism-all may origi
nate in a tooth abcessed by the prog
ress of decay.
GAS to Cleanliness: Proper mouth
cleanliness helps to prevent tooth de-
cay. 1t also helps to prevent Other
mouth diseases. 1t is also matter
of common decency.
"To sum up: Proper diet, regular
inspections by your family dentist
prompt correction of adverse condi'
tions, and proper mouth cleanliness
are all inseparably linked together
in the there C's of mouth health"

Nervousness is condition which
is seldom due to a single cause
and one for which there is no
single specific. Less work or play
and more rest is usually bene-
fetal. However, there is often q
direct spinal irritation of one or
more nerves.
AS this is condition for which
medication offers no relief, it is
always advisable that there be a
comprehensive examination of the
spine. Often, though not always,
spinal adjustments reach directly
to the seat of the trouble. See
your chiropractor; perhaps your
nervousness is of that sort.
By my chiropractic health meth
cd I correct diseases of the eyes,
ears, nose, throat, lungs, heart,
stomach liver, kidneys bowels and
