THE IMPORTANCE OF
BABY TEETH

t0. 1925. Western Newspaper Union.l

MANY parents think that baby
AVA teeth are OF no importance.
What's the use Of bothering with
them. They'll soon drop out and be
done with.
This is a serious mistake. Few peo-
pie know that. at birth, every child
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 life,
the baby teeth begin to appear, showed
up through the gums by the permanent
teeth below, just as a cork is forced
out of popgun by the pIunger be-
hind it. 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 1t 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 foui 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-
sitfon, 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 %
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 tootl Is
closed. When the permanent tooth
tries to grow up into position. 1t 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.

Spreading Highway Gospel

Tests made by the state highway de
parrment of Iowa indicate that gravel
roads will show gain OF so per cent
over the earth roads in the t0n4nlles
per gallon Of gasoline. while the higher
type roads, show a gain OF 100 per
cent. Let US take IS per cent as an
average gain for the Improved roads
over the unimproved. This means
that with a gallon of gasoline we could
transport over an improved road
load OF one ton over distance rs per
cent greater than on poor road.

Don't "Ride the Clutch"

The clutch collar will wear and be-
come noisy If the feet Of motorist
are kept on the clutch and brake
pedals all the time he is driving. This
is a very bad habit, as 1t also tempts
the driver to slip the clutch when
slowing down Instead Of changing to
a lower gear. If the clutch is con-
stantly slipped in this way, the clutch
plates or faces wear very rapidly and
soon are liable to cause the brakes to
drag. Keep the feet off these pedals,
but have them in such position that
the pedals can be reached Instantly.

SUBGRADE MUST BE
PROPERLY PREPARED

Subgrade soils which absorb and re-
tain large amount Of moisture give
the most trouble in the construction Of
roads. These are the various forms of
clay and few of the heavier claylike
loans. They are difficult because they
cannot be drained by side bitches or
tile. When frozen, the wet soil ex-
pands and lifts the pavement. When
1t dries out it often shrinks so mate
rally that wide cracks form, setting
up tensile stresses in the slab above
which may prove disastrous. When
the dried soil again absorbs moisture
it expands, lifting the slab.
Unless laboratory tests have located
the good and bad soils In the project
the inspector must depend upon per-
sonal observation alone. Ask those
who live along the road where the
worst spots appear each spring Ac-
company the roller and note any
spongy places. Keep your eyes open
for seepage water.
Bog holes, or short, deep, spongy
spots, are usually caused by pocket
In an impervious underlying stratum.
Water from some higher point is
caught in this pocket and then abb
sorbed by the earth above.
There are several methods of rem
edying bog holes. If not too deep they
may be drained by cutting through the
impervious stratum and laying tile to
the bottom of the pocket. When the
bog hole Is formed by a rock pocket It
will probably be necessary to inter
cept the seepage water before it
reaches the road or to remove the
spongy material and replace 1t with
cinders, sand. gravel or crushed stone.
If the spongy soil extends for some
distance along the roadway its re
moval would be too expensive If the
other suggested courses seem imprac-
ticable and it is impossible or inadvis-
able to relocate the road, the plastic
material can be greatly improved by
narrowing sand into it until 6-inch
crust Is formed. This crust should be
$40 to 9-10 sand. Sometimes a 1-inch
sand cushion is placed under the slab.
With such treatment there is little
danger that the pavement will be
damaged. Hydraulic lime or light road
oil narrowed into the soil has proved
beneficial in stabilizing adobe and
heavy clay.
The light soil encountered in past
boys will support pavement much as
water supports boat and need not be
feared. 1t will, however, settle under
the superimposed load and at APP
proaches of bridges should be removed
and replaced with stable soil near the
bridge. The solidity of the fill should
be gradually reduced as the distance
from the bridge increases so that the
change from firm to yielding founda-
ton will lot be too abrupt.

Automobile Is Credited
for Improved Highways

America would have comparatively
few good roads If it were not for the
automobile. Since about 1900 when
automobile companies started to pi-
oneer the new era, more miles of good
roads probably have been built than
in all the previous history of the
United States.
While each little community was
quite isolated and self conferred, ex-
cept for the railroad, telegraph and
mails, there was no great need for
good roads. Poor soil roads sufficed
when the comfort and extent of cross
country travel was limited to horse
drawn vehicles.
But the standard of highway condi-
lions was suddenly and tremendously
elevated when time and distance were
conquered by the motor car High
ways of improved construction and
greater permanence reached out in all
directions from every local center of
population to tie up with the great
outside world that at last had been
opened up by the auto.
The stupendous total of more than
$742,000000 was expended on high
ways by federal, state and county gov
ernments in 1922 alone Automobile
tourist camps, which were undreamed
of institutions few years ago, now
have overnight population of hundreds
and even thousands of people since
the motor car and resulting good
roads have mastered distance and
given people time to enjoy the won
ders and beauties of the great out
doors in comfort and luxury.

Ridicule Is Real
Jay-Walking Cure

The pedestrian who disregards
all the principles of safety and
ambles heedlessly about the
streets is rapidly being rele-
gated to the realm of historic
figures. Nobody likes to be
called a "jay-walker," and ridi-
Guile has done a great deal to-
ward eliminating this dangerous
element in traffic control.
Los Angeles is now operating
under a jay-walking ordinance.
and it has proved highly success
full. The unlucky individual
who fails to heed the traffic sig
nails Is jeered and laughed at,
and this has proved efficacious
in educating the pedestrian in
the necessity of traffic control.
The pedestrian who ignores
the traffic warning and deliber-
ately walks ahead in defiance of
the regulations contributes a dol
lar to the city treasury.

Better Roads Cut Cost

American motorists cash in yearly
dividend of 10 per cent ON the capital
invested in the improved highways Of
the country. 1t has been estimated
that the average car runs 5000 miles
year. A saving Of 2is cents q mile
for 5000 miles amount to $3.50 year
For 100000 automobiles this means
a saving of $500. 100000 year on
gasoline. tires, parts. upkeep renewals
and all phases OF operation.

To encounter the least amount Of
trouble from carbon formation. the
following rules should be observed.
First. keep the piston rings in proper
condition. Second, use only the best
quality Of oil. Third, employ the
leanest possible fuel mixture at all
times. and fourth, give the engine a
dose Of carbon-removing compound
occasionally.
The Monmouth inquirer., 1925-07-23
For Economv's Sake

Many motorists run up repair and
upkeep bills unnecessarily through
failure to avoid rough spots in high
ways and through letting the wheels
of their cars drop off the sides of con-
crete roads. Permanent damage may
be done to chassis by allowing the
rear wheels to drop six or eight inches
over the shoulder OF concrete road.
Bent rims often result from this.

After the taper has been turned on

tool upside down and run the lathe
the same way as before, the tool cut

A simple way of replacing coupling

is to true up the taper by using the

Funeral Wreaths
For Congressman

Floral wreaths for funerals of

two claims for wreaths.
The bills were paid two years

to information in the decision,
bought one wreath for $50. another
for $40 and a third for $25.

Congress intended to vest in the
