MANY ANXIOUS
TO PAY TRIBUTE
TO ROOSEVELT
JHeavy Enrollment in Memor
ial League Follows Big
Mass Meeting
Braving one of the stormiest and
most dangerous nights of the autumn
season, a large audience gathered
last evening in Chestnut Street Audi
torium to pay honor to Theodore
Roosevelt on the anniversary of his
birth.
The meeting was remarkable not
alone for the number of those pres
ent, but for makeup of the as
semblage, which embraced every
body from the most prominent to the
humblest in the life of the city, and
for the frequent outbursts of ap
plause with which the striking parts
of the addresses were greeted. A
large number of those present enroll
ed as members of the Roosevelt Me
morial Association, which will meet
Friday evening at 331 Market street,
second floor.
Pinchot Speaks
Glfford Pinchot, for years one of
Roosevelt's closest friends and head
of the national forestry bureau, came
to Harrisburg especially to preside
over the meeting and to relate some
of the interesting incidents in the I
JBkj.

500 suffering with decayed teeth ?
A recent dental investigation conducted under the auspices of
one of the country's largest educational institutions revealed this
H . startling fact: H
H Of every thousand children examined, P
MORE THAN HALF OF THEM were found
to have one or more decayed teeth and an
amazingly larger number had irregular
teeth, swollen gums and mouth eruptions.
An appalling condition, to be sure, and yet in most cases the
presence of decay and disease in a child's mouth can be easily
prevented by giving the teeth and gums the care and attention they
deserve. The safe way is to clean the teeth twice a day with
1 TOOTH PASTE.
I; E §§jj
and to visit a competent dentist at regular intervals for examina
tion and needed dental service.
PYRODENTO attacks the dangerous decay germs and
mouth bacteria, completely destroying both. It mixes its power
ful, harmless germicide with the saliva, bathing the infected tissues
continuously—healing the diseased gums and inflamed surfaces
of the mouth. ||
PYRODENTO is as delightful to the taste as it is safe and
|j scientific. Its pure Olive Oil base is not only insoluble in the
mouth juices, but is a tissue food as well.

Peace Terms Will
Stand Regardless of
Action, Knox Says
Washington, Oct. 28. Senator
Knox, of Pennsylvania said that re
gardless of the action of other
parties, the peace terms would stand
as they were written for the nutions
first ratifying and for Germany.
Under the treaty language, too. he
continued, the nations not ratifying
could resume on the date the treaty
went into force their official rela
tions with Germany.
Should the United States desire to
derive other benefits besides the re
sumption of offlelal relations with
Germany, said the Pennsylvania sen
ator, it then would be necessary for
It to rutlfy the treaty.
Senator Watson said there was
nt occasion for the Republican party
to make the treaty a partisan issue
because, he added, the general senti
ment everywhere was that the 1920
election already had been won for
the Republicans on the war record
of the Democratic administration.
