CARE OF THE TEETH
(From Morning News)


The dental unit donated to the State Board of Edu-
cation has already done good work. The purpose
examine and clean the teeth of the children the public
schools Recently at Milford the teeth of seven
hundred children inspected and when necessary they
have received treatment. If the teeth child
ling pulling the parent is urged to send the child
the family dentist If this impossible because of the
financial circumstances of the family, there is free
tention. DR.. Curran, in charge of the work.
that he would be pleased to have the parents of the
dren visit him and what is being done.
All this is important and commendable Much misery
in after life be saved by proper attention teeth
of children Some years ago, in families good
cumstances the teeth of the children often absolute
y neglected and at present until matter was taken
up by the authorities hundreds school children could
be found whose teeth had been for They could
be improved or preserved by little help whole in
the general of people, teeth better than they were
a few years ago.
Wise parents will impress upon their children the
necessity of care. If they DON'T and if the present drift
in dental science continues the child in early manhood
or womanhood is liable some up-to-date" dentist
whO if the complain of subbed toe or earache
or pain in the stomach will hold that the only proper
way to get rid of is to yank out the poisonous teeth In
few years dental science might conclude that yankin
out teeth is not beneficial after ALL but that would be
poor consolation for the who minus his or her
teeth.
All this possibility could be avoided by such service
as the dental unit we have mentioned is rendering.

VERY WISELY the decision has been reached that to
build expensive buildings for the colored children
in Delaware, would be policy and contrary to the
future welfare of the schools themselves. The population
all school districts change and become different
in their requirements with the passing of very few
years While it might be all right under present pop
ulaton to locate large and expensive school in rural
changed and the building be entirely too large for the
public needs 1t is far better to erect such structures in
the rural districts will meet the requirements of
taon and health environments for the coored children,
cost not to exceed five six thousand dollars for
each school building when completed with heating and
ary should be with all public schools and is
the purpose to have all schools built under the gift of Mr.
Pierre du POnt equipped with these We understand that
this policy has been decided upon and will be carried
Outthat all rural school buildings erected for coored
children from this gift fund.- shall cost thous
built after modern school needs and with all modern
veniences 1t that all rural districts will be cared
for The bids for three rural coored schools in Kent
county recently made have been rejected because of
cessive cost It is probable that the schools will be
built after the plans of the school houses loaned to
completed be furnished within the limit fixed. This
seems like common and in accord with the policy
1t which Mr.. du Pont aimed when he gave the half mil
ion dollars for rebuilding the colored schools

NO SCHOOL CHEEsE-PAR1NG
(From Harvev,s Week1vl

NrEOHl I1dTVeyS weekly
Governor Miller of New York, strict and aggressive
economist he is in other directions is quite right in
deprecatng it fatal that State to seek pecu
mary saving through reduction of school-teachers' sal
aries. Those salaries increased by a moderate
amount last year. and suggested that they
be returned to their former figure that proposal
which the Governor rightly condemns He recognizes the
fact that even with last years increase school salaries
dscredtaby low in comparison with the pay other cal
lngs.
There were in the United States in 1916 some 62237
teachers Of all grades in public schools including prn
cpas and the stas of high schools the aggregate of
salaries paid to them was 1865 That meant an
average of about 1886 each Taking into consideration the
fairly good salaries paid hgh-schoo teachers prnc
pals and Others we may safely estimate that the
rank and file of teachers in primary and grammar schools
to whose conded the vast majority of our mill
lions of children received only between $500 and $4OO
year each.
1t is wonder that under the seective draft one
fifth of the young of the nation were found to be il
erate We suppose that since 1916 the average pay of
teachers has been raised little We are quite certain
mat has not been raised nearly much as the wages
IL ndustrialsts We equally certain that even un
skilled laborers would instantly go strike against
reduction OF their wages to anything like the level of the
salaries which we pay to those who have in hand the
Instruction and training of the generation of Amer
can citizens.
Governor Miller is quite right in opposing any reduction
II teachers salaries in New as fatal error" and
he is right in that State where salaries are higher than
most other States, the principle must apply with
wen great force elsewhere We economy retrench-
nC ana reduction OF expenses throughout nation but
We must not have cheeseparing in the public schools

THE QUESTION of the actual meaning of the term
"Rea Value" as used in the assessment laws for
Kent county which are in notion has been twisted
and turned in many ways to Justify the property owner
from placing valuation his lands on the question
aires sent by the Board Of Assessment The faith
er of the assessment BILL Senator James F. Alice Jr has
made clear his understanding of the term which in
his mind the bill drawn and enacted into law
He printed his signature the statement which is
as follOws:-
"I personally understand "Real Value" to mean
amount which the property, either real or per-
sona would bring sold at public sae for the pur-
pose for which it held built or for which it was
previously Immediately prior to the sale-and if
sold at time when the demand was neither abnormal
nor subnorma with moderate number of prospective
purchasers present who had sound judgment sufficient
funds and reasonable use for said property, and who
were not buying for speculation"
would appear to be understandable for those who
want to fair in making the returns to the Board OF
Assessment Sentimental value is not to be considered
in the value property any than good will would
have any tangible ground consideration in making the
valuation of property for basis of taxation.
