EDUCATION AND

School authorities are becomina
greatly interested in various plans fol
improving the minds of backward pu-
pills by improving the condition OF
their bodies. Now they have become
imbued with the idea that clear
mouths mean healthy pupils and the
examination of the teeth of schoo
children is the latest thing under con
sideration.
An impetus has been given this SUBJ
ject by a letter from Professor lesson
of Germany. He says that investiga
ton shows that nearly 90 per cent
OF the school children have diseased
teeth. In the past few years. i'm Ger

teeth examined. The statistics gath

in Dresden show conclusively that:

ment is disturbed the less i'm general

1t has been supposed that the an

bronze tools the secret OF which has
been lost. Professor Gowland Of the
British Institute of Metals says that
the ancient bronzes were very impure,
so that their hardness could not have
been due, as sometimes assumed, to
their exceptional purity. On the other
hand, inasmueh as modern bronzes by
careful hammering can be made as
hard as the ancient ones, the legend
of lost art in bronze hardening seems
