Editor of "HEALTH"
THE IMPORTANCE OF
BABY TEETH

20. 1925. Western Newspaper Union.)

MANY parents think that baby
AsA teeth are. OF no importance.

them. They'll soon drop out and be
done with
This is serious mistake. Few peo-
pie know that at birth, every ehild
has already in its jaws all its teeth.
both baby teeth and permanent teeth.
They can't be seen or felt but they
are there in storage. Early in lie,
the baby teeth begin to appear, showed
up through the gums by the permanent
teeth below, just as cork is forced
out Of popgun by the plunger be-
hind 1t. BY the time the child is three
years old all the baby teeth should be
in place
The baby teeth are smaller and not
as numerous as the permanent teeth.
Every mother and nurse should know
what are the baby teeth and how
many there are so she can check them
Off as they come and know the first
permanent tooth when it appears.
Beginning in the middle line there
are, on each side, the two incisors, or
cutting teeth. Two on each SIDE
above and below. That makes eight.
They are the biters, with sharp thin
edges. Then the eye teeth, one ON
each side, above and below. That
makes fou.' more.
The eye teeth are long, sharp teeth,
not for biting but for holding. They
are sometimes called the CANNES, be-
cause they are especially large and
strong in dogs, which are descended
from wolves, and in cats of all kinds.
Then the bicuspids, two on each side
above and below. That makes eight
more or twenty in all.
These are the baby teeth and If the
child is healthy and the teeth are kept
clean, they work perfectly from thr
years of age when they are all in po-
sition, until eleven or twelve, when
the last one drops out.
But If by decay or accident one of
the baby teeth is lost before the per-
manent tooth behind it is ready 20
take its place, then the whole program
is upset. The teeth back of the lost
tooth are pushed forward and the
teeth in front are pushed back by the
pressure of the lips, so that the vacant
space left by the missing tooth Is
closed. When the permanent tooth
tries to grow up into position. it is
twisted and so comes in crooked. This
is the most common cause of crooked
teeth.
If one tooth grows in crooked, al,
the others are apt to be affected. Cor
recting this defect is very slow, pain
full and expensive.
You can't improve on nature. Keep
the baby teeth clean and sound and
the permanent teeth will come in
straight and perfect.

ARE YOU GROWING DEAF?

DEAFNESS is the most common af-
Fiction of the human race. One
person out of every ten has some de-
feet in one or both ears. This is not
only an annoyance but in many cases
it is an actual handicap, both socially
and in a business way.
If asked which one would rather
lose, hearing or sight. almost every
one would say he would rather be
deaf than blind. But persons who
have had to do without both hearing
and sight, like Helen Kellar and other
blind and deaf persons, are unanimous
In saying that deafness is far worse
than blindness.
Deafness, even those forms which
do not develop until middle age, are
largely due to diseases of childhood.
Scarlet fever, diphtheria and measles
are responsible for more deafness
than all other causes put together. In
all of these childhood diseases, the in
lection, located originally in the
throat, works up into the ear through
the eustachian canal, the long, mar
row tube connecting the throat with
the ear. Here the germs develop.
causing middle ear disease or run
ming ears" as it is commonly called,
which not only destroys the drum but
aslo sets up an Inflammation of the
bones and other structures in the
middle ear. which may persist for
wears and often lasts as long as the
victim lives.
This condition is extremely difficult
to treat. 1t may be relieved and may
apparently disappear, only to break
out again whenever the patient takes
a fresh cold. Untreated. it not only
continues to discharge but may also.
at any time, cause mastoid disease or
even brain abscess.
Other causes of deafness are the
accumulation of wax in the outer ear,
getting water in the ear while swim
ming. rupture Of the drum by acct
dent. working In chemical plants
where there are constant fumes, such
as chlorine or phosphorus. and work
ing In. noisy places. where there Is
constant pounding on the ear drums.
"Many men were made deaf during
the World war" says recent writer
in Science. "by the constant thunder
of big guns which hammered on the
ears until the drums actually became
loosened and could no longer transmit
sound"
Deafness OF any degree is serious
affiiction. Deafness in childhood may
easily handicap the child throughout
IFS entire life. Better control of chill
dren's diseases. better care Of chill
dren's ears and frequent examination
of any suspected cases will help to
reduce the amount of deafness.

sets Forestry association. 1t is for
free distribution for the good of the
cause.
The "Town Forest" booklet carries
foreword by Charles Lathrop Pack,
president and founder of the Ameri-
can Tree association, who gave i'm
petus to the movement by presenting
thousand-acre demonstration forest
to the New York College of Forestry
at Syracuse university. His associa-
ton, incidentally, is unique in that
there are no dues, and the only way
to become a member is to plant
tree and register 1t. And anyone who
asks may have stree planting instruc-
tons" and stree day program" free.
"Our idea," says Mr.. Pack, lis to
get the stranger to trees interested
in one tree. With the individual sold
on one tree, we then introduce him to
the large phases of the subject. The
Town Forest is one of these phases.
In hundreds of European towns the
citizens receive a little check every
year instead of a tax bill because of
town forests. Rather an engaging
idea, l think, in these days of income
tax returns and the high cost of liv-
ing"
Mr.. Reynolds sets forth in one chap
ter that in 1913 law was enacted in
Massachusetts providing that cities
and towns might set aside lands for
the express purpose of growing tim
Der. That law authorizes municipali-
ties to purchase lands or to accept
gifts or requests for this purpose. A
town may incur debt within the legal
limit, and any town can establish a
forest by two-thirds vote of any reg
ular town meeting, or a city by sim
liar vote of its council. When for
est is established by such official ac-
ton the state, through its conservation
commission, will give trees to the town
to reforest the land.
The Massachusetts Forestry associ-
alton started a campaign of education
to persuade the cities and towns to
acquire forests under the act. In the
last three years, since the association
has offered to plant free of charge
| 5000 forest trees for any city or town
which will establish forest of one
hundred or more acres, the idea is
gradually being accepted.
January 1, 1925, AZ towns had set
aside land for town forests or voted
| to do so when the committee could OBJ
| tain the land. In the aggregate over
$25, 900 has been appropriated by these
towns, $500 acres have been included
in town forests, and nearly half mil
lion trees have been planted. The MS
ISOLATION has planted 10000 trees
| (about 60 acres) for II of these towns
that have qualified with 100 or more
acres.
OF the town forests already created
| more than one-fourth have been OBJ
tanned through gifts Of land or Of
money from citizens interested in for
estry and in the future of their town.

Shells Help Trace Races

Shells unearthed from the Indian
graves in Minnesota and Iowa CORE
spond in every detail with those native
in the West Indies and have led stu
dents TO the deductions that the shells
were transported by the Indians either
through Mexico or around by way of
Siberia, in ancient days. The Golish
collection of sea shells in Los Angeles,
Cal, is one of the most famous in
the world and is of great value to eth
nologists.

The yaal river in flood as an out

thousands of sightseers. The barrage

the Rand with 100000 gallons q day
for two years. The only tributary of

the supply mostly coming from the
South and Far West. The railroad
haul from the South is about 1000
miles, and from the Far West about
'2,750 miles. The railroads carry an
nually in excess of 100000 carloads
of timber and wood products. The
freight bill is between S250,000,0O0 and
$300,000000.
In the national forests in 1923 forest
fires covered 373,214 acres; the timber
and property loss is set at S494, 965, 600
with intangible losses incalculable
Insect pests cause an annual loss in
excess of $100000,000. The forest serv-
ice expends more than 100000 a

Lumber prices have increased all out
of proportion TO point where they OBJ
viously bear no relation to the cost of
production and distribution. Per
capita consumption has decreased in
consequence, but this is offset by in
crease in population. Moreover, there
is still housing shortage, and 1925
is apt to set new building record.
The papermakers have their own sep
arate and distinct problem, which they
regard as even more serious. They
have been using spruce, fir, hemlock
and aspen and hope to be able to use
birch. beech, maple and other woods.
All of which makes interesting the
"Town Forest" movement which is get
ting under way in the East, and espe-
dally in Massachusetts. For there is
no possible doubt that town with a
successful forest of its own Is in luck
and from many points Of view. Any
