A Home Education
I had often bought those young

myself except to explain joyfully
over a picture here and there.
And in this particular book they
had learned things. And learned
them so Interestingly they can
never forget.
I was very proud Of myself. for
being such good mama and add
ing so much to my children's gen.
eral knowledge and education.
Yet, began to think, there
were other books too. And today
went over the library dragging
out everything I had ever given
them.
I was surprised at the number
Of stories on mythology I found.

YOUR TEETH
Their Relation to Your
General Health

American Dental Association
GOOD FOOD MAKES GOOD
TEETH

When a baby smiles and shows
a tiny set of perfect teeth, you see
passing in review a bit of pleasant
dental history.
That history began long before
the child was born. DR. Percy r.
Howe. Director of the Forsyth
Dental Infirmary in Boston and a
national authority on the influ-
ence of diet on good teeth, states
that the crowns of temporary teeth
begin to calcify-become stony by
the deposit Of lime salts - about
five months before a child is born.
They are quite fully formed at
birth, although they seldom, of
course, have come through the
gums, Even the crowns of. perma-
nent teeth begin to calcify about
a month before birth, DR. Howe
tells us, and they, continue to form
until they are ready to make their
appearance in the mouth, when
the, child Is about six years old. :
During the period before birth
when the teeth are calcifying. and
until late infancy" DR. Howe re-
ports, "the teeth ~are dependent
Exclusively on nutrition" If'a ba-
Iby's smile is to show a tiny set of
perfect teeth, he must be fed prop
erly, and his mother must eat the
proper foods before the child is
born.
Physicians. rather than dentists,
usually advise the mother on mat
tiers Of diet. But, as in the case of
diet for growing children. whole
some food, wisely chosen, is all
that is needed. Plenty of milk,
fresh vegetables, fruits in abund-
ance g. these not only assure
health to the mother and the ex-
pected child, but also prepare the

the child's mouth.
A mother can in this way be the
child's best dentist. And she can
save future dental troubles and
dental bills by careful dieting.
Dental and dietary authorities
tell us that il babies and children
are fed properly, and the taught
to keep their teeth clean, dental
troubles will be reduced to a min
imum. DR. Martin Dewey, presi-

adds:

mastered the elements Of mouth
hygiene, kept their teeth clean and
got plenty Of sunshine, a few gen
erations would see tooth decay the
exception rather than the rule
