UNITED AMERICANS Proposing to exploit American principles. American ideals. American methods and to educate persons of alien or native birth who do not unerstand the real foundation on which this republic is constructed, an organization is being formed by leading men of the nation. 'The organi zation includes prominent men of every state and city Nevada’s Governor. Reno’s Mayor, and others occupying equallv prominent positions in public life, have been inter ested in the movement locally. A meeting will be held in the Chamber of Commerce rooms this afternoon at which full discussion of the idea will be followed by some form <il organization. Americanism !- the prime necessity for membership in the organization.. It is proposed to accept as associates in the work, any man of affairs no matter what his walk of life Men prominent in union afairs who are Americans at the same time will be welcomed into fellowship. The main purpose of the association is to combat radi calism in every form- Decent government requires no ex cuses for existence, all it needs is to be clearly explained to the governed. Radicalism wins converts by soap-box oratory; modern government can explain its purpose on the same soapbox and win far more converts. The human race perfers the right when the right is understood- ’The exceptions to those who prefer to do right arc those who must be restrained for the welfare of all - Some organization that has for its purpose the upholding of law as adopted by the nation, will result in benefit com mensurate with the extent and determination of ilie order.

Tf you have a bad tooth, perhaps what you need is a Mold crown to cover it. 1 f some teeth are missing, they can he replaced by what is called bridgework, which means that new teeth are fastened in by attaching them to olher natural teeth in your inouili. Or maybe you need arliticial plates, which can bjj made so natural looking that it is not easy to tell them from real teeth. I he best place to have this kind of dentiil work done is at an ofiiee where Registered Dentists use the h- It- Parker System, because these dentists make special arrange ments with out-of-town patients, so that lewer visits are required anil you don't have to eall so often. J'rices are always reasonable, and no charge is iriade for exam inations and advice. There arc twenty-four K. H. Parker Svstcm ollices in dilferent cities, the near est being at DK. GRORC.1C M.
