PARKER ISSUES DEFI
"Painless" Dentist Challenges
"Ethicals" to Debate.-
"TEETH FACTS HELD BACK"
Members of State Board and Society
Asked to Meet "Unethical" in
Public Discussion as to Their
Own "Ethic" Rules.
' In an attack on the Oregon State
Board of Dental Examiners and the
Oregon Dental Society, at Fifth and
Alder streets last night. Dr. Edgar B
Parker, known as "Painless Parker,"
Issued an open challenge to any mem
ber of the State Dental Board or of the
Oregon Dental Society to oppose him in
public debate on "ethics" of the dental
profession, which are directed against
advertising or price-cutting.
."I have a few things I want the pub
lic to know In regard to this 'dentists'
trust,' " began Dr. Parker. "You don't
know anything about the care of your
teeth because these dentists don't want
you to know. It is 'unethical' to ad
vertise or to print or distribute any in
formation on taking care of your teeth
if you have your name or address at
tached to it."
Dr. Parker then cited sections of the
"Code of Ethics," published by the Ore
eon Dental Society.
"On pages 18 and 19." he continued,
"this print is small and hard to read
It's ethical print; it says a dentist must
not advertise or publish any informa
tion dealing with teeth which bears
his signature. It also states that den
tists must not supply the public with
any information on the care or treat
merit of their teeth without first se
curing sufficient remuneration.' Al
though they refused me a license I am
entirely within the law, because my
patients don't give me any money.
That would be against the law. Don't
you understand how foolish is the
whole business?"
devotion to his chum makes the play
a real classic.
Besides this great play, there is one
by George Ade, the great fable writer,
called "The Brash Drummer and the
Nectarine." Ade's bright sayings form
the subtleties and the picture is. a
visualization of them. Next is Cissy
Fitz-Gerald, "the girl with a wink." in
a one-reel comedy by Roy L. McCardle,
of the "Jari family, entitled "The
Ladies' War." The maid and cook ques
tion forms the basis of this splendid
farce. Same bill until Sunday, when
the great moral play, "Dope," will be
seen.

Company Tried on Charge of Using
. 3500j W. 11. Chapln Convicted.
E. C Herlow was convicted on
charge of larceny by bailee last night.
The jury retired at 3:15 P. M. and five
hours later reported a verdict was
reached. It was 9 o'clock before He
low appeared in Circuit Judge Morrow'

Locke, M. H Tower, F. F. Lench, M.
Diehle, Francis Capell, S. M. Clave and

with W. HThapin, who was convicted
two weeks ago and sentenced to an in
determinate period of from one to 10
years in the state prison. The two men
formerly were partners in the Chapin
Herlow Mortgage & Trust Company.
It. was charged that the two men re
ceived $3500 from Mr. and Mrs. William
Grace ta invest in- first mortgages, but
that they used the money in their own
business.
The trials have created much inter
est on account of the'confidential rela

Mr. and Mrs. Grace and Chapin & Her
low. - When the money was given to
Chapin & Herlow by Mrs. Grace for In
vestment, Mr. Grace was suffering from
the effect of a paralytic stroke.
Mrs. Grace said she had intended to

CHURCH CHANGES FORMS
Seattle Conference Orders Questions
Put Before Baptismal Ceremony.
SEATTLE, June 24. A radical
change in the manner of putting ques
tions to applicants for baptism was
adopted today by the general confer
ence of the church of the brethren in
session here.
Heretofore the questions have been
asked after the applicants entered the
water for Immersion, but the confer
ence., almost without a dissenting vote,
decided to change the baptismal order
so that the questions would be asked
before the applicants entered the
water.
In the discussion preceding the vote.
It was urged that, under the old meth
od, the confusion attending the baptis
mal ceremony was such that the appli
cants frequently did not comprehend
the questions nor remember the an
swers, and It was believed the new
form would remedy that difficulty.

The robbers took a handcar and
headed for Centralia, but so far all

Foster to trace them have been futile.
TJie money stolen was partly express

the balance store funds. No one heard

V (special.) JJld someone drop a
bomb from an airship while passing
over the John Allama place, one mile
west of Latham, a few nights ago?
The owner of the place would like
very much to have the question an
swered.
A terrific explosion about 200 feet
from his house frightened Mr. Allama
and his wife, according to his story.
On an Investigation, trees and bushes
showed signs of having; been struck by
something. Although the bushes were
torn to pieces, there was no mark of
any kind on the ground.
Mr. Allama says he was so excited
that he forgot to look up for the aerial
navigator, but he feels certain an ex
plosive of some kind was dropped from
above and probably exploded before
reaching the earth. This would ac
count for the ground not being dis
turbed below the torn bushes.
Mrs. Allama did not recover from
her fright for several days, it is said.
That there was an explosion of some
kind there seems little doubt but the
cause remains a mystery.
Mr. Allama says he found pieces of

by the hundreds of thousands all over the United States and Canada.
We have but a few copies left, and admonish our friends that unless
they take time by the forelock, they cannot obtain from us a volume
that will increase in value as the years go by, until it becomes almost
priceless. We have only asked the coupons clipped from our paper
-the real value to us, as showing that our friends were the recipients
. of the advantage we offered to which we added actual cost of dis-
tribution to ourselves.
girlie response to our offer has been without parallel or precedent. Thou-
sands have availed themselves of the chance and we are accordingly
congratulating ourselves on the high order of intelligence that prevails
among our clientele. We have, therefore, decided to publish a brief

is doubtful if in the whole history of advertising, anything approaching
J the intrinsic worth and educational value of these reading notices has
ever been placed before the public. Some of our readers have clip
ped the entire series from our columns day by day, and formed them
into a neat scrap-book to be placed by the side of Heart Songs" on
the piano, and thus lend an additional value to that great book. The
stories of the songs and the biographies of the composers and singers,
were obtained only by the expenditure of much time by experts em
