In time of stress people watch their dollars more carefully. ‘At such times they think twice be- fore they act. Advertising and selling have a dou- ble work to do in order to make a sale. Most people realize this—they know that to produce results they must double their efforts, not cur- tail them. i Mark the writer's word, when the depression is over there is going to be a real day of reckoning. Those concerns that have curtailed their advertising efforts will wake up some morning and find that their competi- tors—those who have been persistent in their advertising—will be back to normalcy, while they are still mark- ing time. The competitors’ names have become well known through their optimistic advertising and sell- ing methods and as business begins to pick up folks will flock to their headquarters to receive a real benefit from their services and the curtailer jena csne ma seek DO ma ADVERTISING AN INVESTMENT [but I doubt if it is altogether a good The must learn to | thing for us.

Before the 18th amend- ment beer was served in wide-open saloons, And with beer there was not half as much crime or so many girls going astray as is the case today. It appears now that the 18th amend- ment and some other laws were ap- proved without looking very far ahead to see what the effect would be. ‘The time is coming when this world will be full of regretful people, who will not only reconsider their actions but will wonder why they did not stop before it was too late. Modernism is the direct cause of this depression, which distresses us so much. It came to the Egyptians when they became modern and so it will be our guest as long as this mod- ernism continues. Do you remember the seven years of plenty and the seven years of fam- ine? The seven years of plenty have now passed end the seven years of famine are upon us. This depres- sion was supposed to have begun in 1927 and, according to prophecies, will end in 1935. Until then we will have to strive to keep ourselves from hun- ger.

Progress is being built-up by just such a spirit as was manifested in Mrs, Waldo’s letter. People should think things through to a logical conclusion and then act.

YOUR TEETH Their Relation to Your General Health By the Educational Committee of the ‘American Dental Association BAD TEETH ARE WASTEFUL ‘We can learn a lesson in the value of dental hygiene from the children of the nation. ‘In Chicago it is conservatively esti- mated that the city spends $3,500,000 annually to educate “repeaters” — children who have to spend two years or more in the same grade, owing to failure. Seventy per cent of these re- peaters are retarded by physical ail- ments. It is estimated that at least 25 per cent of the failures could be prevented by curing dental disorders. Defective teeth, in other words, are costing Chicago taxpayers $850,000 every year. ‘These children with poor teeth fail because of absence from school, and decreased efficiency when they are in the classroom.

Bingham, it will be recalled, ex- patiated at length on the relief to the over-burdened taxpayer which would be provided by legalization of beer. If stronger drinks were author- ized the revenue would be still larger, according to the information he gave to the nation’s lawmakers at the last session of congress. Now, however, comes Wilson, editor of the clip-sheet issued by the Meth- odist Board of Temperance, Prohibi- tion and Public Morals, and by infer-} ence asserts that it would cost more} to collect these taxes than they would produce. His statement has to do with the} collection of liquor taxes in Canada and is as follows: “They have been getting a lot of revenue from the sale of liquor up in Canada. You don’t often hear what this revenue costs. So i just for your information we are giving the facts below: “To collect $35,274,390 liquor revenue in 10 years there was ex- pended in British Columbia $139,- 725,788, f “To collect $14,872,131 liquor : revenue in seven years there was expended in Alberta $84,315,108. “To collect $13,558,683 liquor revenue in six years there was €x- ‘ pended in Saskatchewan $65,445,- 139. 4 “To collect $12,260,251 liquor revenue in eight years there was {| expended in Manitoba $57,487,087. “To collect $43,796,458 liquor | revenue in four years, five months | 4 there was expended in Ontario $235,575,320. ae. “To collect $68,032,472 liquor « revenue in 10 years there was ex- pended in Quebec $589,994,914. “To collect $5,329,788 liquor revenue in four years there was é expended in New Brunswick $16,- 666, poser: “Thanks for that set of rec-|_ The dollar has shrunk to 34c to ords of your Grand Canyon Suite”...|farmer and laboring man, but to sal- A slattern, found in a vacant lot, ap- | ried people it has a value of $1.25. . parently hungry, was found to have| Wheat today is 34c per bushel. $1250 in her shredded hand bag.

I, for one, will voice my feel- ings. Judging from reports, the road he drove was recently eaten away by the Missouri,.and he unsuspectingly drove over the embankment. I have reason to believe he drowned, as his body was not found. Now, my point is this: Why;don't | the counties bordering the Big Muddy block the roads that have been eaten away by the turbulent stream? It wouldn't cost much to have @ man shut up these dangerous roads each year. Counties spend money on other fool ideas; why not on something de- cent and worth while? Even if the county is so negligent, why don’t the farmers living there consider it their duty to protect travelers?

Several years ago there was a similar case. Is life so cheap around here that no efforts are made to preserve it? To pay taxes a person is good enough. But to receive benefits from it is a different story. No precautions are made in his behalf.

DISGUSTED READER. the loss to students because the chil- dren are grouped together in classes for long periods of time. Greater dif- ficulty is found in estimating loss to adults. But the Metropolitan Life In- surance company recently took the physical records of 1,000 employes with good mouth conditions and 1,000 with poor mouth conditions. Employes with poor mouth conditions showed a higher percentage of neuralgia, neu- ritis, headaches, nervousness, colds and abscesses. A large Chicago industrial plant ex- amined 185 patients with bad tecth who complained of other ailments. More than 82 per cent of the persons treated—152—were cured or relieved by removal of dental infections. Gen- eral health was improved in nearly 75 per cent. Ailments included myositis, arthritis and chronic stomach trouble. Myositis is an inflammation of the muscular tissues. These facts indicate the harm that poor teeth can do to general health. But they cannot show the great fi- nancial loss that they can cause to adults. From the children’s statistics in Chicago, we can see what loss is caused by poor teeth among students. How much greater that loss must be to adults, all of whom have greater responsibilities, and to many of whom time is money. : terial. Since housing is as general a prob- lem as that of providing food and clothes, particularly to the family man, the innovation may prove of lasting importance in good times as well as under unfavorable conditions. A pleasant home is the birthright of every family and it may be that the things we learn now will permit us to reach some sort of minimum standard of housing, that is a type ot house which even the poorest can afford. We have heard a good deal about housing standards in America but everyone knows there never has been such a thing. The standard for any family is what it can afford. If it can be arranged so that those wha can afford the least can get the most for their money a substantial ad- vance will have been made.

If you wake up some fine morning and discover a couple of dromedaries in a moderate state of dissolution on the curb in front of your mansion, what's the odds which way the wind | blows, you will immediately set up a loud cry of anguish and indignation and demand immediate action from} the health department. Why, if those | unoffending dromedaries are permit- ted to remain there undisturbed even | a week in this weather there'll prob- ably be a terrible epidemic of drome- dary fever raging throughout the country this side of the Rockies. Well, anyway, that is the trend of thought on the subject, whether you happen to’ be the one on whom the dromedaries die or not. A defunct, decomposing carcass is not exactly an attractive feature in the rock garden nor even in the boule- vard, but as long as you and your kids keep your hands off the exhibit and do not needlessly frequent the scene of the murder, you are reason- ably safe. These comical yarns concocted for the effect on the public purse, about the corps of agents the great charity organization is sending to the scene of a catastrophe to dispose of the bodies of the victims before some ter- rible epidemic develops, are on a par with the yarn the fake cripple beggar will hand you if he hopes to wangle a gift or donation out of you. An epi- demic from such a cause is like pneu- monia from lifting one’s hat on a cold day at a funeral—makes the deed more heroic, for story purposes. At that one would not mind the health authorities’ “nuisance” graft so much, were it not for the ald and encoyragement the filth obsession gives to all kinds of charlatans in the healing business. Shake up all their bids for your patronage and you will find that they are all strong for clear- ing the alleged “putrescence” from your system, if you happen to have fifty bucks and a claim for weak nerves. 25.50 11.90 1.02 12.00 51.00 35.00 00 Editor, Tribune: Reading a letter by Mrs, F.
