Properly Cared for Mouth Not Conn
Diseases Of the teeth have not been re-

life. This probably explains the fndtf-
ference on the part Of well-to-do people
in regard to their own children and the
lack Of public and hospital relief for the
poor Recently the large cities have Ia
ken up this question and investigation
shows that in the poorer neighborhoods
q properly cared for mouth is a rarity.
and that more than half the school chill

diseased or defective teeth that Is giving
them suffering and discomfort wei

The result of this Investigation II that
some few large cities have added dental
examiners to the school officials and in
some schools free dental treatment IL

Of the teeth.
