TEETH AND HEALTH
By R. ALLEN GRIFFITH, D. D. S.
CITY Us. COrNTRY TEETH

It is a commonly accepted theory
that the country boy is healthier thar
the city boy With his advantage o.
outdoor life and exercise, he should
be, but many statistics show that he
is not.
The physical examination Of .he
/ school children OF the United States
shows the country child is from 5 tc
20 per cent more defective than the
city child.
Take the tuberculosis statistics as
a test.
We have been taught that fresh air
and outdoor life are the panacea for
tuberculosis. We read advertisements
everywhere declaring that this, that
or the other sanitarium, located in
some distant part OF the country, offers
a sure cure for tuberculosis, largely
on account of the climatic conditions.
Statistics show that only fraction
of one per cent Of city school children
have tuberculosis, in spite OF the
smoky atmosphere Of the city, while
81 of country children have an affec-
tion of the lungs. The proportion runs
Just about TO l against the rural
youngsters.
Another defective condition, sup
posed to be more prevalent in the
cities, is malnutrition. We are great
ly shocked when we read that % per
cent Of the city school youngsters
have poorly nourished bodies. Should
we not be more surprised and amazed
10 know that 81 per cent of country
children suffer from malnutrition?
Another charge against the city IS
that it produces mental detectives.
Investigations show a proportion OF
mental detectives in rural districts Of
s per cent, as against per cent in
the cities.
This list could be carried on indef-
initely.
To what is this condition due9
II can only be due to one thing. The
city child gets better medical and
dental attention than the country
child.
No one can go thru our country dis
tricts without noticing the dirty, un-
kept mouths of most country people.
They seldom visit a dentist except to
have a tooth extracted, and then it is
more apt to be the family physician
who does the difficult technical job Of
extracting.
Bad teeth are acknowledged to have .
4 direct bearing on the health, and
eeth without doubt play an important
part in the poor showing of the coun-
ry child.
The army draft disclosed that the
,ity boy had far better teeth and is
more perfect physically than the boy
rom the rural districts.
The city boy has a far better op-
to come in contact with
lentists and learns how to take care
# his teeth and keep them in a high
tate of efficiency.
In most of our city schools there
S some sort of dental examination of
he children. while the only State in
he Union that even attempts to care
or the dental welfare of the children
) Vermont.
The draft showed that a large per
ent Of the physical defects of our
oys were remediable, and they were
emedied where possible.
Is this not the best possible argu-
lent for compulsory military train
lg?
If all our boys are forced to go in
raining camps, where the first thing
hey get is a thorough physical ex-
would not we save the man
ood Of our country from a vast pro-
ortion of preventable diseases of
seth and body?

When you're fifty, your body begins to ereak, little, at the hinges. Motion is more slow and deliberate. Not so young as I used to be" is frequent and unwef- come thought. Certain bodily functions upon which good health and good spirits so much depend, are impaired. The weak spot is generally the bladder. Unpleasant symptoms show themselves. Painful and annoying complications in other organs arise. This is particularly true with el- derly people. If you only know how. this trouble can be obviated.
