puts over his scheme for recon

nearer to his heart’s desire, the
question arises—in fact, has al
ready arisen—as to where he’s
going to find members who will
keep step with the New Deal’s
march of triumph.
Might this earnest well-wisher
make a suggestion? Let the Presi

Dr. James E. Bliss (above left), instructor in prosthetics at Western
Reserve university at Cleveland, Ohio, is shown performing a new den
tistry technique, which ensures that the face of a patient will look the
same after a new set of teeth have been put in as before. In this scene
he is applying a plastic substance to the patient’s face, which will harden
into a mask, and he is having the patient photographed before the
teeth are extracted.

Coronation Souvenirs.
INCE previous engagements pre
vented me from going over to
the coronation, I trust some friend
will bring me back a specimen of
that new variety of pygmy fish
which some patriotic and enterpris
ing Englishman has imported from
Africa as an appropriate living sou
venir of the occasion. It’s a fish
having a red tail, a white stomach,
and a blue back, thus effectively
combining the colors of the Union
Jack. And it’s selling like hot
cakes, the dispatches say.
Now if only this engaging little
creature could be trained to stand
on its tail when the band plays
“God Save the King” what an ad
dition it would make for any house
hold in the British domain! (Note—
