true to form in their pre-conceived
notions of what they should do to
win the prize.
Senator Vandenberg of Michi-
gan has kept of the stump in this
pre-convention campaign and stood
on his 12-year record in the Senate
He has not been out here, except
tor f1eeting visit in February on
his way to deliver a Lincoln Day
address in st. Paul. He has, how
ever. elected to permit his friends
in Wisconsin to enter a delegate
slate pledged to him, just as he
has in Nebraska. If he does we'll
in these States, he may be entered
in some Of the other States holding
primaries for the election of ma
tional convention delegates.
Ohios candidate, Senator Taft,
is following very different ap-
proach in his effort to win the
nomination. He has stumped the
country from one end to the other
beginning last summer. He is still
stumping. Yet he has entered no
presidential preferential primary
except in Ohio, which by common
consent his opponents have left to
him. Although he has many
friends and supporters In Wiscon-
sin, Taft decided not to enter here
saying he did not have time to
make the kind OF q campaign he
thought necessary.
Dewey Combines Tactics.
Tom Dewey, New York's fighting
district attorney, on the other hand
has entered more primary contests
than any of the other candidates
and has combined these activities
with stumping trips which have
taken him. too. across the country
He is coming here for the windup
of the primary campaign, the end
of this week. and will speak at five
major and strategic places, and
visit a dozen more.
Dewey does not have the sound
ing board for his ideas and cam
paigning which both Vandenberg
and Taft have ir the United States
Senate. When either of the last
two wants to get an idea across, he
merely has to rise in the Senate and
deliver a speech. AS potential pres
idential candidates, their speeches
are carried far and wide by the
press.
And while the name of Tom
Dewey in recent years has been
known to millions of Americans
because Of the record he made
busting rackets and putting shady
politicians In Jail, personally he was
not known west of the Hudson
River. His cue, therefore, was to
travel and become acquainted, let
the people see and hear him. and
also get an idea of their problems.
The main attack on Dewey from
his opponents has been that he was
born too late, that he has not had
enough experience with national
affairs. Some others have charged
him with being too liberal. and
perhaps not easily dealt with by
the money bags Of the Republican
party. e., some of the gentlemen
who have believed it their right to
control in party affairs.

Romance of The Limberlost

Seven-thirty came at last, the
movie was to start Click The
lights were out and the movies had
started.
First thing was comic. 1t was

and were captured by cannibles.
They soon got away and swan for
another land.
Then the real show, Romance Of
The Limberlost." Some Of the
main players were Jean Parker,
Marjorie Mann, Eric Linden, along
with other favorites.
This picture was about a girl
that had no parents. She lived
with an old woman that took other
peoples washings to do but made
the girl do the washing for her own
board.
This girl liked to catch butter
flies and mount them. She also
liked to read and play with wild
life.

convinced her to marry a rich

Grades one to four draw pic

The winners for this year have

man, fifth grade, Theodosia Hop
kins, six grade, Betty Langrell, sew
enth grade Betty Cheezum and the

This contest arouses the interest of
every pupil for better habits of fire
prevention in both the home and
the school. Much practical knowl-
edge is attained through demon
stration talks, and fire drills. Each
student attempts to compose his
knowledge into prize winning es-
say.

Dentistry and Public Health

The care of the teeth: Your teeth
are very important to your health.
Often illness is caused by bad de-
fects in your teeth. So be sure
your teeth are in good condition.
Eating the proper kind of food
helps to build good, strong teeth.
Milk is a very good drink. Not only
does milk help the teeth, but also
the body. Vegetables, fruits, and
small proportions of meat are very
good food for healthy diet.
Good, strong teeth are very es-
sential in everyday living. Teeth
help you pronounce your words and
letters more distinctly. Also, teeth
give people an attractive appear
ance. Movie stars all have beau
tiful teeth. This one way they ac-
quire their jobs.
We are fortunate enough to
have 2 sets of teeth. They are
milk teeth (baby teeth and per-
manent teeth. OF course the per-
manent teeth are considered the
most important. The milk teeth
lay the foundation for permanent
and are often called foundation
teeth"
Brushing your teeth is helpful
but it is not the only care teeth
should have. 1t is wise to see your
dentist often. The dentist can fix
cavities in your teeth which you
may not know you have.

was in an old taxi.

where is that big limousine of
yours" Limousine! Yes, of course,
why 1, well, you see I had engine
trouble so I had to come in a taxi.
Hadn't we better hurry or we will

Well, I certainly don't want to

only cab I saw. To the Club Ros-

How much driver?" asked John
ny. "One dollar and ten cents, "
replied the driver.
Oh, must have lost my pocket
book, it isn't in my pocket Hurry,
Johnny it is cold out here. Wait,
here I'll pay it for you"
I don't know what could have
happened to it. I seem to have
lost my ticket too, "said Johnny
feeling in all his pockets"
What Listen Johnny Malony,
don't believe you ever bought any
ticket or you even had a pocket
book; and as for that big car that
is impossible. And that dream cot

going to shoot Jed because he
thought a lot of the girl and Jed
had beaten him with a carriage
whip not long before. Of course he
thought that he would beat the
girl also. He called Jed out to the
barn and said that he was going to
shoot him. Jed grabbed the gun
away from him and threw the gun
down. AS he did, it went off and
shot him.
At the sound of the gun the
sheriff came up and convicted the
boy of the murder of Jed Carson.
Therefore the girl didn't have to
marry Jed.
When it came up in court he was
found mot guilty." They then
lived happy ever after.
