Accord With the Plan.--Hoped to Make II

Dental hygiene for the public
schools Of Putnam, which has been
under consideration b. the town
school board for some time, is soon
to become a reality Putnam is tax
ing the lead among The towns Of the
eastern part Of the state Of installing
dental clinics in the schools and ex-
aiming and caring fer the children's
teeth
At meeting Of the school board
Monday evening Joseph A. p. Gagne
and Superintendent Macdonald were
appointe a committee to provide q
room for the dental clinics, and IN all
probability this viii be in the base.
ment Of the Israel Putnam school
The board authorized the purchase Of
a dental chair and an outfit for clean
ing teeth and doing the work neees-
sary ia carrying our the plan. which
viii follow that Of the plan in opera
ton in Bridgeport.
DR. w B. Oliver will have charge
Of the clinics and will give two hours
each morning to the work. He will
be assisted by the school nurse. who
recently went to Bridgeport to re-
eeiye instruction in dental hygiene as
carried on successfully in that city
The children in the lower grades
will receive first attention. 1t is
hoped to begin actual work before
the end of The present month The
care Of the teeth has become an i'm
portant part of the education Of chill
dren in the public schools in many of
the most progressive cities Of the
country. It has been found that
many serious diseases originate from
bad teeth. and that they retard men
tai growth. and physical deformity
results in many eases where decaye1
teeth are not property treated.
The attitude of local dentists to-
ward dental hygiene in the schools
IS set forth in communication adj
dressed to Superintendent Macdonald
az follows
W imam l. Ahd1fpoHdlus
ent Of Schools, Putnam. Conn.
Dear Mr.. Macdonald. In accord
ance with the promise made by the
dentists of Putnam at meeting with
you and the school nurse, we held an
other meeting last NIGHT. the purpose
of which was TO consider different
suggestions as to how the dental
work necessary for the proper care
Of the teeth Of the school children OF
Putnam could best be carried on
We came to the conclusion. after
careful consideration. that there
should be no charity work done b. the
different dentists at their private
offices but that the town or the school
committee should hire dentist. pay
him salary and establish an office.
