The last two weeks have been very
well filled. School events intermix-
ed with social affairs have kept most
of us entertained.
The class play was written up in
a preceding issue. The financial re-
suit was more than satisfactory. The
total receipts were $236.75. The ex-
penses were: bills $4.O0; Mr.. Sever
son, 400, or $94.70; 4th grade $500
prize for selling the most tickets, 2
phone calls to Culbertson, s1.4O; Mr..
Poore miscellaneous expense 5000;
tickets, $2.75. This left $125.0O net
profit. S100 of this was paid to the
school district to cancel the loan
made to the Junior Glass last year
when there was a S100 deficit on the
high school annual The other S25
was used to pay for the caps and
gowns used by the Seniors last week.
On the evening of May 12 the SEN
lor-Hlgh school faculty banquet was
given in the Domestic Science room.
The Domestic Science girls in charge
OF Miss Peterman prepared the ban
quet. Misses Keckler and Wilbur had
charge of the decorations. Three

table. Yellow and white streamers
hung down to the place cards. Little
May baskets added to the beauty of
the decorations. A three course din
ner was thoroughly enjoyed. We
were then told to pull a streamer.
The result was another card. A verse
was read by each guest The faculty
then escorted the seniors to the Lib
erty theatre.
On the evening of May Ia the Sen
ior class, Messrs. Poore and Living
ston were invited to the Maltby home.
There they formed a theatre party in
charge of Mr. and Mrs. Maltby. The
movies were thoroughly enjoyed.
However, the evening had just begun.
We were ushered up to the spacious
apartments of Mr.. and Mrs. Sever
son. Here we saw a cleverly deco
rated banquet table. We understand
that Miss Kennedy, who was in our
party had charge of the decorations.
Mrs. Severson, Mrs. Ditmarson and
Mrs. Maltby saw to it that we were
supplied with good things
to eat. Mr.. Poore furnished the
stories. After the third course which
consisted of angel food cake, yellow
and white brick ice cream, each guest
was given glass of Bryan's Best
and tiny diploma. The diplomas
we're then read and caused much
merriment. We then went down to

ness places will be closed and the
people of the city and community are
urged to cooperate toward the OBJ
servance of the day in the manner
that its Importance demands. Bust
ness and personal interests can be
laid aside for the brief period neces-
sary to show the tribute of respect
we all owe to those who fought for
the Union and for Liberty.

Books and Trees

Much Is written about trees. All
books. except the finest, are printed
on them, for books are made OF paper,
and modern paper is made OF wood
Experts have computed to what ex-
tent the forests supply us with fiction.
Some years ago nine popular novels
we're published which reached a total
sale of sixteen hundred thousand
copies. Since the average weight OF
n book is from pound to a pound
and a half, we can compute that the
nine novels took about two million
pounds OF paper. A manufacturer OF
paper says that the average spruce
tree yields about FIVE hundred pounds OF
paper. Consequently the nine novels
felled four thousand trees, besides COM
hitting other sins against nature.
some books are worth more than four
thousand trees, but it is feared these
may be counted upon ones fingers.

COOPERATE WITH THE DOCTOR
Take Care of the Teeth

TEETH AND HEALTH. BY Thomas f.
Ryan, d. ID. $. G. p. Putnam's Sons
A personal talk with DIR. Ryan sup
plemented the impression created by
his book. When l began practising
dentistry eighteen years ago. said DR..
Ryan, 1--WE used to say that the proper
time to begin taking regular care of
the teeth was when the second teeth
made their appearance. Within the
last few years ideas in dentistry have
changed considerably and we have
been cautioning people to pay as much
attention, if not more. to the first
teeth. Now, let me add, however
radical it may sound, that real pre-
ventive dentistry ought to begin not
with the child, not even with its
mother, but with the grandmother
Every woman whose daughter is to
bring a new life into the world ought
to see to it that the daughter under
stands certain simple physiological
truths about the teeth.
Teeth do not begin to develop at
birth, as some believe. About thirty
weeks before the birth of the child a
tissue called the dental band forms
on what Is subsequently to become the
jaws of the new baby. The incipient
teeth are nourished by the mothers
food IT is the physicians job to de-
eide what this food should be. All the
dentist asks Is that 1t should contain
plenty of lime and the mineral salts
that are the foundation of good, firm
tooth structure"
A considerable portion of Teeth
and Health" Is devoted to the tracing
of serious diseases to bad teeth. Only
within the last few years, the author
contends, has the real significance of
tooth decay and of infections around
the gum margins of the roots of the
teeth been understood. These infec-
tions frequently are present even when
there is no severe pain involved. Ma
tures reminder at times Is no more
than an occasional twinge. and where
the person who is subject to these oc-
casional slight pains happens to be In
poor health, q visit to a laboratory for
the purpose of having the teeth
X-rayed is urged. Many an examina-
ton of this kind has revealed startling
thngs-at the roots of dead teeth, or
about an imperfectly filled root canal,
an improperly fitted crown or de-
fective piece Of bridge work. Infection
from these areas may result In Grip
pling attacks of rheumatism and other
troubles not usually laid to the teeth.

formed indicate that backward and

make medical knowledge the property
Of the layman. The author himself is
evidently a layman-so at least we
may conclude from his signature as "a
former insurance man'-but he is pos
sessed of considerable body of medi-
cal knowledge, which he desires to
share with the average man. The
book Is an appeal for preventive rather
than curative medicine its contention
is that every person should possess
sufficient knowledge of his own body
to be able to forestall disease; that
superstitious veneration for the art OF
the physician should give way to in
telligent understanding Of physical
disturbances, their causes and their
remedies.
Many people. and in particular the
rushed business man." argues the
author will not give to their own
bodies the attention that they would
not think of refusing to a house re-
quiring fire insurance: and the result
is often physical or nervous wreckage
or preventable death. The solution, in
the authors opinion. is not to be
found so much in superior skill among
physicians after disease has mani
tested itself as in the safeguarding of
the patients health by medical advice
while apparently he is perfectly well.
For the physician should be some
thing more than a policeman called
upon when trouble actually appears:
he should be the constant friend and
adviser of his patients; he should be
acquainted with their family histories
and with some details of their personal
lives; he should be able to give them
the benefit not only of his general
knowledge, but of the adaptation Of
that knowledge to the specific cases
before him. Added to that, he should
be a man capable of seeing "the silver
fringe" to a cloud; he should not de-
press his patients by his gravity, but
bolster them up by his cheerfulness.
1T is natural" says the author, that
some physicians should be optimistic
and others pessimistic but the pessi-
mistic doctor should change his busi-
ness"
In such a vein the author continues
for many pages, dealing with immun-
ity to disease. childhood, adolescence,
overwork. worry. mental torture OF
the body" and similar subjects. If in
his discussion there is some implied
criticism OF the physician, the book
as a whole Is an exaltation of the
medical profession. and points to an
era when the physician shall play
part as far in advance OF that which
he now holds as his present position is
superior TO that Of the medieval verse;
writing practitioner.

made normal by the correction of
dental defects. Dr. Ryan regards as
particularly important the experiment
performed in the Marion School in
Cleveland The subjects were forty
children whose teeth were in bad con-
dition. All the children We're chosen
from classes between the fourth and
eighth, for the reason that below the
fourth they could not intelligently CO.
operate and above the eighth they
would be too soon graduated, so that
the statistical value of the expert
ment would be lost. The test was to
prove-if it was susceptible of proof
the efficacy of a healthy mouth con-
dition and its effect in maintaining a
high order of physical and mental de-
velopment.
These children's teeth were treated
by experienced dentists, they were
made to clean their teeth regularly
and their diet was regulated. At the
end of a year the average mental gain,
according to DIR. Wallin's psychological
tests, was 99.S per cent. There was
also a great increase in self-respect
and a material reduction in the ten
dency toward truancy and disobedi-
ence. And. most important of all, there
was remarkable Improvement In the
health of these children. Several girls
who had started the tests with sallow
compilations and pimpled faces at
their conclusion had clear skins and
rosy cheeks. One child, who had suf-
fered greatly from fiatulence and sick
Dr. Ryan believes that one of the rea-
sons for so much poor dental health in
America Is poor food. Most people do
not realize that the teeth. like the rest
of the body, are nourished by the food
we eat. We consume too much re-
fined sugar and should substitute
brown sugar wherever possible. We
also eat too much pap" by which
the author means breakfast cereals
and other demineralized food sub
stances, including white bread and
meat-which later is emphatically de-
ficient in lime salts and other tooth
building materials. Even vegetables.
as they are ordinarily cooked-with
the skins removed and the valuable
cell salts thrown down the kitchen
sink-are lacking in these valuable
substances. Vegetables properly cooked
are of great Importance in the develop
ment of dental health.
Teeth and Health contains much
valuable information on the proper
care of the teeth. The author has
wisely refrained from bewildering his
reader with technical terms and his
book can be understood by any one.

Milk too would doubtless have come
under that prohibition, for in one
place we read the warning:

This book takes up topic which,
despite great progress III the last dec
ade, is still one Of the obscure fields

as to the existence Of vitamines has
been achieved. Three distinct classes
of them have been distinguished. the
indispensable character of their rela-

causation of disease by lack Of them

their method of operation fl the ani-
NAL system are still unsolved puzzles.

made to attract public attention to the
subject by accurate and comprehen-
sive presentation of all that Is known

historic method and shows how by 4

CHILDREN'S DREAMS. BY DR.. c. w.
Kimmins. Longmans, Green Co.
The Freudian researches in the
world of the unconscious have influ-
enced host of other attempts to in
terpret dreams according to their sig
nificance in the conscious world. Most
OF these have centred on neurotic
cases. Now comes a study by DIR. c.
w. Klmmins OF normal dream life,
based upon research among 5000 Eng
lish children OF varied ages.
"The dreams OF children differ very
materially from those OF adults"
writes the author. The manifest con-
tent tends TO become Identical with the
latent content. In children's dreams
also there Is far more secondary elab-
oration than In the dreams of older
people. and there is far more overflow
from the experiences of the previous
day--e. g.. a child often gratifies in the
dream some desire forbidden by his
parents the day before.
"The dreams OF children have, more
over, clearer TelailOu W thtii every
day temperament-e. e.. elaborate and
fanciful dreams are common with
imaginative children. Nightmares are
common with timid children, and vivid
dreams are generally more frequent
with those OF unstable type"
Or. Kimmins emphasizes the part
played by the dream as an antidote
TO the monotony of life. Without
dreams life would be far more weari-
some. The author contends that the
dreamer grows old more quickly
than the dreamer.
with very poor children, Or. Kim
Minis finds. "the dream comes in as the
Fairy Godmother and supplies to them
the pleasures which the normal con-
dItions Of their lives have failed to
provide. This is we'll illustrated by
the dreams OF Industrial school chill
dren, who as is pointed out, have far
happier and more exciting dreams
than those whose lives are full OF in
