DIFFERENT WAYS OF TREATING LIES (Frank Kent In Baltimore Sun > There are two w-ays of treating a ^whispering campaign.” One is the Way Smith treats it; the other the Hoover way. There are different s of opinion as to their relative ef ficacy^ but they are interesting as presenting a contrast. On farm, the politically seasoned limith, concededly one of the most skilled campaigners who ever ran for the presidency, ought to know more •bout it than his opponent, who is making his first political flight, but there is room for argument. Lies in • presidential campaign are no ne.v thing. Lies are the rule, not the ex ception. In every campaign they u>« numerous, inevitable, inescapable. No fight is free from them. In a presidential campaign the stake is greater and the field wider. Hence, the lies are more varied as well as more numerous, but they are an in evitable accompaniment of state as wejl as national campaigns. In this campaign, on both sides, the lies have been more poisonous and virulent than usual. Smit.i. against the counsel of some of his advisers, who are not as politically smart as he is, had dragged a num ber of those concerning him uro the open, branded them as false, li appears to have been good politics. It did several things: For one, it stood him out as a fearless fellow determined' to permit no slur on his character to go unchallenged. For another, it gave his supportin ' press and spokesmen an opportunity to b" righteoir-’v indignant and tre enth’r • ‘ - r! t~*v» same WORRIED II LOT Wan-Down, Nervous, Appetite Gene, Lady Shows Great Improvement After Using Cardin. Waterloo. S. C.—“I took Cardul at intervals for three years, and have been in good health since last fall,” says Mrs. Noble J. Hayes, who lives near here. “My improvement after taking a course of this medi ates was really remarkable. "I am much stronger and can ac complish so mueh more work now. My weight increased twenty pounds, and my color is fresh and good. "Far a long time I had been feel ing poorly.

Try It for your troubles! At all drug stores. NC-19i time. For another it made it up pear he was being foully attacked and that, indirectly at least, his op ponent was responsible. On the othei side, the lies spreai about Hoover have been every bit as virulent and actually more numer ous. A list of twenty-eight has been compiled by his friends! who say i is only a partial one. They run all the way from the one that he is a surreptitious and solitary drinker to the one that ne is to get $5,000,000 from the Soviet government if. au-r his election, he brings about Rus-,j lies about Hoovcrshrdletuoishrdivi j sian recognition. Some oi the old gress last spring oy Republican op- • ponents of his nomination, recently have been circulated by the Demo cratic national committee. Two aa>s ago, ioiJowing a criticism o! this by the Democratic New York J World, it was announced this would be discontinued, u was making risky as well as ridiculous the effort- to pin on the Republicans responsibil ity for the lies about Smith. Some of Hoover's advisers hate urged him to follow the Smith ex ample and denounce the whisper campaign about him. They have particularly insisted that failure to answer meant letting Smith get away with the idea that the lies were all on one side. They have, j however, been unable to move the Hoover determination to ignore them. He is convinced it is im possible to stop them; that it is impossible to denounce them all; that to denounce tlieni at all dig nifies them and gives them circula tion; that lies will not do him any real damage; that the strong thimj is to pay no attention to them un less made openly and by responsible persons. ; Perhaps he has been converted to this policy by an incident of his I pre-convention fight. Last May a Ismail weekly sheet primed in Wash ington and financed by Republican ' Hoover enemies printed a particu • larly silly lie about him—the Chi nese one. It was reprinted or rath er referred to in a southern paper. His friends advised him to take :io j notice of it, but Hoover was mad j and wrote a hot letter to the editor ; demanding retraction. Scared, the editor rushed to the senator from his state, who inserted the entire article in the Congressional Record, ' thus protecting the editor from libel and giving the story a country j wide circulation it never would have i attained in any other way. j After that Mr. Hoover just “let 'em lie." That is what he is doing | this time. Whether it is good poli j tics remains to be seen. Anyway, it j requires considerable self-restraint j in a man as sensitive about such j things as he. To Kill 5,000,000 Dogs. Belle Fourche. S. D.—Killing of millions of prairie dogs is the task facing A. B. Plummer, who has contracted to eradicate a prairie j dog "town” of vast proportions in | parts of two South Dakota coun j ties. j Two years, at least, will be re ! quired for the extermination of the I rodents, which are estimated to I number 5.000.000. By ridding the land of the pests, Plummer will re store thousands of acres of full use fulness. The grazing value of the land has been reduced approximate ly one-half by the burrowings of the rodents. MEBEfflST REMAKES FSSE5 Disgui: fs Vtors So Even I on Chaney's Brolher Wouldn't Know Him. Hollywood Cal -"Making face - ' has always tern one of the rare sports of childhood the uglier the luces the better Ou; here in Hol lywood. where the great big kiddies of the movies romp they're doing it ::i earnest. They hot only make faces: they remake them. Not by surgery, the kind ot sur gery that, gave Fannie B.-ice a new nose and prettified Bull Montau •.. Hollywood remakes faces by a nt>> method. They call it plastic den tistry. The camera, says ah article in the October issue of Photoplay Magazine has made obsolete the old method. of theatrical disguise. The crepe beard and the grease-paint anin mace wont stand the test of the emulsion so sensitive as to photo graph color values of the sligfttes; tint, show up painted lines for wh it they are. As a result, there has been a con stant. research in all the big studies for hew and workable methods of makeup. It remained for an ob scure dentist to devise what is now perhaps the most important feature of facial distortion.. . Dr. Arthur D. Freedman discover ed that he could completely change a person’s expression by remodeling his teeth. New lines were created: the whole aast of the countenance changed. He went to the movie mag nates with his discovery. Here is the way Dr. Freedman works. First, he studies the charac ter for which a set of teeth is de sired, He takes an impression erf the mouth of the actor and recon structs it in plaster of Paris. He then proceeds to build over the na tural teeth with a new facing. The artificial porcelain shell fits perfectly and is held in place by suction and with the aid of a sub stance which guarantees adhesion and yet permits easy removal. The shell is very thin and there is no speech interference. Once in place, the teeth are made to appear pro tuberant, to overlap, or to symmet rize so as to disguise completely the player. CLOCK WINDER MISSES TASK ONCE IN 27 TEARS Asheville—For the first time in 27 years Louis w. Jeanmeret this week failed. to wind the big clock in the courthouse tower. Because he has been ill at his home, 216 Ea>t ! College street, for several days, lie was unable to attend to that duty. However, to be sure the clock was wound, he sent his 73-year old wife to supervise the work, aud unassisted she climbed the high steps in the tower where she told the janitor how to fix the old time piece. It was a difficult thing to do—a huge leyer, by man power on i ly, being used to wind the works.
