Every establish- ment of this character has complied with the request to close. Throughout yesterday, at various hours,.proprietors of these establishments turned the key in the doors and at 8 p. m. not one of the former drinking emporiums was open to cater to the thirsty, Shortly after 8 o’clock, Sergeant William C. Hart, with Plainclothesmen McCue, Feeney and O'Mara, started a tour about the city in .an automobile to ascertgin if any of the places had failed to comply with the request. Ac- cording to Sergeant Hart, not one in- stance was found where the request had not been carried out. During the tour of inspection, police found at the front door of an Arch street saloon, a bottle which in the old days probably contained whis- key, in which was burning a lighted candle, af the bottle was draped in black. Chief Rawlings appears satisfied re- garding local conditions pertaining to the closing of the saloons. He said that none of the police had reported any saloon open l#st night. Asked whether or not the saloon men would obey the request for any great length of time, the head of the department said he was no mind reader, consequently he was unable to say. Events in the po- lice department of the past few weeks would bear out that the chief is no clairvoyant. On Main street today the only front door to a former saloon that was open, is the one leading into the place just south of the railroad crossing. This was due to the fact that a eigar and tobacco store is conducted at the front of the former cafe. the Deéflls and Funerals Mrs. Elizabeth C. Wolfe, The funeral of the late Mrs. Eliza- beth C.

Clar- BETTER TEETH FUND (Continued from First Page.) people free or at cost prices. This matter was disqussed at a recent meet- ing of the committee but no action was taken at that time, the matter being left open for further consider- ation. Since active solicitation has started funds are rolling in very rapidly and it was thought this morning that the $1,000 mark would be reached before night. In an interview with Dr. B. L. Pro- tass, who represents the dental so- clety on the committee, the latter said: “There is a direct relation between the unhealthy’ mouths of school chil- dren and their general health. This unfortunate condition is costing the city considerable money ahnually. By this is meant the cost of continuing to educate children, who, because of defective teeth are greatly retarded lin development. It also means the impairment of the working efficiency of these boys and girls in later life, caused by subnormal growth, bad health and defective natrition. “The experiences of most cities have proven that if preventive dental work is to be done successfully it must begin with the children in their sixth or seventh year. The neglect of the teeth at this period of a child’s iife is responsible for the hopeless decay which is so prevalent among (he older school children and adult population today.” The Dental society, which yesterday voted a contribution of $60, as re- ported in last night's Herald, has gone on record as being in full ac- cord with the.movement. Leon A. Sprague, president of the Rotary. club, this morning stated that the club had been unable to get Dr. Fones, director of he dental clinic at Bridgeport to corhe here be- fore October 26. Mr. Sprague ex- pressed the opinion that if the neces- sary $1,500 has not been raised by that time, that the campaign be con- tinued until the Rotary club mem- bers and their wives have the op- portunity to listen to Dr. Fones. It was stated this morning that the com- mittee will continue the drive 'u’nm the needed amount is obtained. The Parents and Teachers’ asso- ciation of the Osgood Hill school, at a meeting held last night, voted to contribute $25 to the United Parents and Teachers' association fund to be donated the dental clinic of the bet- ter teeth fund.

When the shoes were found missing IPWncipal Slade called a meeting of all the boysg in the school for the purpose of determining where the shoes could be found.

It also meant that the city would be out the $300 if the shoes were not re- turned.
