Thin Is a progressive age, not only
In finance and science tut In the phy
sical welfare of the human body. We
come to realize more as time passes
iit in order to keen the tnlad up to
JnW efficiency the physical must not
fee neglected. I flo not need to tell you
that In order to properly assimilate
the food taken Into the body that the
teeth and mouth plays a very Import
ant part and should be kept In the best
possible condition both from sanitary
and mechanical standpoints; . .
The conscientious and competent
dentist will use every effort to keep
the oral cavity of his patrons In the
pink of perfection ask him how to
do It.

WALLOWA FIVE
BEATEN 44. 4
LA GRANDKRS GO OS TO ENTER-
PRISE TONIGHT.
With Broken-np Team Visitors Walk
V Over Homers So Fouls Called
Wallowa. Dec. 29. (Special) La
Grande swamped Wallowa high here
last nlnht with Its 1911 vim. Final
score, 44 to 4. Bohnenkamp, center on
the visiting team, scored 22 of the
joints, Woods coming next with 12
points. With a' low celling and a siip-
nerv floor the visitors were somewnat
handicapped at the start but soon got
Into the swing of the thing and before
the first half was over had things go-
inir their own way. ' Hamilton, the
star member of O. A. C.'s quintet three
years ago refereed the game and was
not ohlleed to call a single foul on
La Grande players, and the Wallowa
fans were well pleased with the be
havior of the locals.
The team was broken up to give the
members as much rest as possible for
the more strenuous game tonight when
the crack Enterprise team will be
taken on. Woods played forward one
half, and Reynolds played the other
forward ' position during the entire
game. Woods moved to guard In the
second half and Ralston rested Tor to
niehfs game, while Crawley took
Wood's place.
Roberts rested the entire game, but
goes In tonight. Kail comes over
from La Grande this evening to let
Bohnenkamp rest for tomorrow
night's contest when Reynolds will
again take His position to supplant
Woods who goes home. '
The score by detail was: Bohnen
kamp, 11 Held baskets;' Woods, six;
Reynolds one; Crawley three; Ralston
one.
