NO CHEAP POLITICS AT EXPENSE OF THE CODEl
From Evening Journan

If Wilmington Newark be wise they will put their
educational systems under the School Code and give
to the children Of school going the benefits of the
State system.
We believe that large majority fhe people of this
city and Newark desires that the Code be accepted On
the other hand there standpatters and reaconares
the two school boards who opposed accepting the
system.
Part of the opposition has selfish motive underlying it.
What remains is based upon lack of appreciation of the
great benefits that will from affirmative action.
There is talk in Newark of holding a referendum to
obtain the sentiment of the people in the district
We hope will be done and that the arrangements for
it will allow ample time for intelligent to get
both sides of the controversy fairly and squarey before
the voters.
Certainly, effort to hold snap referendum and to
play cheap district politics with the question
should be tolerated by the public Any effort
direction shOud be met with rebuke
It would be crime against the boys and girls of
Newark and the people of the district large attempt
to make political paythng of their best educational
interest which is tied up so closely in the new Code

TEETH AND HEALTH
By R. ALLEN GRIFFITH, D. D. S.
CHEW YOUR FOOD

What are the teeth for? They arr
placed in the mouth as first aids il
the process of digestion. Their loss
throws an additional burden upon the
balance of the alimentary apparatus
which is frequently little able to stand
the strain.
The chain of evils following INSULT
cient mastication is so large that
heavy doses of powders and pills and
/ the payment of doctors bills cannot
remedy what might easily have been
remedied by a little care in the begin
ming.
The greater number of those who
suffer from that common malady-
malnutrition-have not sufficient
teeth. The lack of teeth not only
causes malnutrition and gastrointes-
tinal disorders but encourages and
keeps up many disorders due to other
causes.
Often all that these patients need
to prevent the condition or to effect a
cure is the proper preparation Of food
in the first stage of digestion.
Thorough mastication can only be
accomplished by proper and sufficient
teeth. Man is normally herbivorous
and fruit-eating animal first and
carnivorous animal second. The more
herbivorous an animal the greater the
necessity for thorough chewing of the
food. 1t has been proved by scientific
experiments that those who bolt their
food, those who have insufficient or
no teeth, lose the value of 20 per cent
of their vegetable food, three-fourths
of their entire neGrishinent and 20 to
so per cent of their food bill.
Food which is appetizing and pleas
ing to the palate is not completely nu-
tritious unless thoroughly chewed.
Mastication grinds and mixes the
food with the saliva, which starts the
necessary chemical changes in the
starehes and sugars. 1t also excites
the secretion of the gastric juice.
chewed food reaches the
in which a sufficient amount
of pepsin, rennin and hydrochloride /
acid awaits it. The transformation /
of food into nourishing body stuff be- /
gins here.
Most of us eat too much. This is /
due to haste, nervousness, bolting, the
to chew properly and be-
cause many foods are prepared so
they may be eaten without chewing.
Too much food in the stomach prevents
its expansion and contraction. 1t
cannot execute the churning move
ments necessary to digestion.
This in turn causes a stagnation of
he cells that produce the digestive
1uids. Sufficient hydrochloride acid
IS not secreted to prevent fermenta-
ion. Fermentation manufactures
gases. Micro-organisms, mixes with
ood under these conditions, produce
ltomaine and other poisons, Food
loisons, the result of incomplete or
improper digestion, together with mi
from dirty mouths, pro-
luce the symptoms covered by the
erm auto-intoxication.
When teeth are sound and mastica-
ion is thoroughly performed, the real
cation that the stomach has had {
nough comes gradually. When food
5 not thoroughly masticated, due to t
ecayed, irregular or missing teeth, {
he realization that the stomach has {
ad enough comes as a shock and {
sually after it is overloaded. {
The certain cure for eating too much c
pod is careful and proper chewing.
his can only be accomplished by an
ficient mastication apparatus. Any I
ne may demonstrate the truth of this ;
tatement by trial. ?

VEST CHURCH HONOR
MEN WELCOMED

Secretary OF state Everett c. Johnson,
in West Presbyterian Church last night,
welcomed home the i39 members Of the
church and Sunday school at the spe-
cial services held in honor Of the mem
Der sof that Sunday school who had
served in tlle late war. lie warned his
hearers that although the war is won,
the red flag is flying in the streets,
and urged a more loyal support to back
the government and the church. lie
told how The church has aided in every
important crisis in the worlds history.
The rehabilitation Of the church
service flag was a most impressive serv-
ice. Amidst the singing of a patriotic
hymn by The congregation the flag,
which has hung over the pulpit in the
church since America entered the war,
was drawn by a sailor, a soldier and a
Red Cross nurse, all Of whom had been
in the service and are members Of West
Church.
Mr.. Johnson spoke Of the important
factors that brought the United States
into the war, how Delaware had en-
tered TO do her share full-heariedly and
how now that It is over, the Delaware
men and women must cooperate just
as they did when the war was on and
make the conditions Of the State better.
lie said II was thought that America
was too dollar-mad and too purse
proud TO enter the conflict. but the
Prussian lords soon found out differ |
