Tacotnans Ask for the
 Retention of Dr. Green
 as U. s. Commissioner

To give still further pressure to the necessity for the retention of Dr. W. r. Green as commissioner for this pre- cinct, the following request, signed by twenty-three residents of Tacotna, was telegrapbed to Judge Clegg at Fair banks on Monday:
 Tacotna, Jaa. IT, 1922. Hon. Cecil Clegg,
 Fairbanks, A laska:
 We, the undersigned. representing the residents of Tacotna, Alaska, sim cerely ask that you retain Dr Green as commissioner for this precinct. as we see no good cause for any new appoint ment in his stead. The office combined with that of doctor and dentist makes it possible for the people of this section to have the necessary services of both, and without such services we feel that it is imposing an unnecessary hardship upon us.

TOOTH DECAY DUE TO BREAD
Exhaustive Experiments Have Alb
solved Sweets From Blame Which
Has Been Attached 10 Them.

The general belief that the consump-
ton Of jams, jellies and such sweets
are responsible for the progress of de
cay IN our teeth, has not been borne
OUT by experiments which were made
ut the hyglenic institute of the Lelpsic
university. On the other hand IL was
indicated that bread was responsible
for such troubles. This was shown
by taking perfectly sound teeth and
coating them with wax, into which m
aperture was made at one point or
another and these were then subjected
10 an immersion In mixture Of bread
aud saliva at temperature OF 81 de
grees Centigrade. AT the end OF 81
days many Of the teeth showed signs
Of s0fiening at the exposed points;
while % days later all showed the
softening signs. At the end OF IA
days completely developed carries was
developed In all the teeth under expert
ment. A similar test with jams and
jcllies resulted In n complete vlndica-
ton OF the sweets, for the same length
Of time showed that the fruit acids
aud the perfumed acids of the pre-
serves had no effect upon the teeth
whatever. -
