GOVERNMENT SHOES
 MISSING AT SCHOOL
Footwear Valued At About $500 Can. not Be Located in R. 0. T. c.
 Provision Quarters at School

Between 50 and 60 pairs of army shoes valued at about $500 were re- gently found missing from the R. O. I. c. provision quarters at the Senior High school. When the shoes were found missing Frncipal Slade called a meeting of all the boyss in the school for the purpose of determining where the shoes could be found.
 MT. Shade told the boys that each pair of shoes was valued at about $6 by the government and even though they were old and worn, the federal government required that they be re- turned before new ones could be issued. It also meant that the city would be out the $500 if the shoes were not re- turned. MT. Slade said this afternoon that he was inclined to believe that some of the boys thought the shoes were old 4nd of no value and that by taking them they could have them re- soled for use.
 Since the talk by MT. Slade about one-third of the n.nber of missing shoes have been returned. If, how ever, the shoes do not come back at a mcSe rapid rate, MT. Slade explained that it would be necessary to take fur ther action.

 Since active solicit 8 ton has started funds are rolling in very rapidly and it was thought this morning that the 's1,0OO mark would be reached before night. , In an interview with Dr. B. L. Pro- tass, who represents the dental so- ciety on the committee, the latter said:
 There is a direct relation between the unhealthy mouths of school chill dren and their general health. This unfortunate condition is costing the city considerable money annually. By this is meant the cost of continuing to educate children, who, because Of defective teeth are greatly retarded in development. It also means the impairment of the working efficiency of these boys and girls in later life, caused by subnorma1 growth, bad health and defective nutrition.
 "The experiences of most cities have proven that if preventive dental work is to be done successfully it must begin with the children in their sixth or seventh year. The neglect of the teeth at this period Of a child's life is responsible for the hopeless decay which is so prevalent among the older school children and adult population today
 The Dental society, which yesterday voted contribution of s60, as re- ported in last nights Herald, has gone on record as being in full ac- cord with the, movement.
 Leon A.. Sprague, president of the Rotary club, this morning stated that the club had been unable to get Dr. Zones, director< of the dental clinic at Bridgeport to come here be- fore October 26. MT. Sprague ex- pressed the opinion that if the neces- sary $1,50o has not been raised by that time, that the campaign be con- tinued until the Rotary club mem bers and their wives have the op- portunity to listen to Dr. Fones. It was stated this morning that the com mittee will continue the drive until the needed amount is obtained.
