Herald readers as Mr.. Dirnberger is
well known here: "a Statement--Some

Kaiser, and that I have insulted the
American flag. All these statements
are lies, and I will pay a reward of

Brushing and cleaning will prevent
decay of the teeth.
Your teeth will last you life time.
If a child's teeth are decayed 1t
should be taken to a dentist at once.
From the examination of the mouths
of children between the ages of nine
to twelve, from nearly all sections OF
the civilized world, it has been shown
that over 80 per cent, at least, have
defective teeth.
At the Marion School in Cleveland,
Ohio, an experimental class was form
ed of several backward and deficient
scholars. Tests, both as to physical
and mental conditions, were conducted
before and after teaching of tooth care
began. So successful were the results
obtained with this class in proving that
the care of the teeth is necessary to
good digestion-and good digestion is
necessary to good school work-that
particular attention is now given to
the condition of the mouths of the
pupils in the Cleveland schools.
The behavior, too, of a child is nat
urally affected by conditions OF the
teeth. The President of the New
York Juvenile Asylum is quoted as
saying, "That more than fifty per
cent of the boys come to US with bad
teeth"-in brief, bad teeth makes bad
boys.
Everyday rules for the care of the
teeth-brush them morning, noon and
night.
Occasionally there will be small
spaces between the teeth not reached
with your toothbrush, and decay may
start there. So go to the dentist ev-
ery six months. He will clean those
places thoroughly that you have not
reached.
If you will carry out these few dl-
rections, l will guarantee you several
things. First-You will be stronger
and healthier. You will find that you
have greater capacity for learning.
You will grow up stronger and heal
thier men and women.
Remember, clean teeth never decay
and good teeth means good health.

weather so far. Near evening the ba-
rometer began to drop; clouds began
to come in view over the horizon. The
weather was calm, hardly a wave could
be seen. We were expecting storm
before dark.
The mates voice could be heard
shouting orders to the men to close
all matches and make ready for the
storm. The storm broke with great
violence and followed by lightning, the
heavy war of thunder crashed on the
ear. Then came lull and the storm
increased with greater violence. Inc

waves. By morning the storm had
ceased with little damage to the snip:

Junior High SchOol-Why We Have

A Junior High School system con-
sists OF three school years, seventh,
eighth and ninth.
1. 1t has many advantages over
the old system. The plan bridges over
the usual gap between the eighth and
ninth grades.
2. 1t offers greater opportunity for
broader course of study, adjustable
to the individual needs. More ground
can be covered. Opportunity is given
for specialized instruction of all sub
jects, that is better expert teaching.
A. 1t affords better grouping of
children. In matters of conduct pupils
of Junior High School become almost
as free socially as those of the Senior
High School.
5. Children are brought to the
habit of independence in performance
of school duties. Children like it be-
cause it breaks the monotony of an
all day session in the one grade room.
1t encourages the pupil to continue in
school and gives or offers a better
chance for relaxation. 1t creates a
better school spirit by making the
school more interesting and by Great
ing more enthusiasm, doing away with
the wish l were out of school, spirit.
This early taste of the high school
life stimulates students to continue in
school. The name Junior High School
means more to pupils than just grades.
1t creates an ambition to 20 on and
on. 1t is better adopted and is more
closely related to real activities of life.
