proper place for the coming of the 'second teeth" the reply of the specialists is that this can be done far better with so-called space maintainers. These are inexpensive devices constructed by the dentist and attached to the teeth adJoin- ing the spaces left vacant by ex- tracting the teeth.
 Defective deciduous teeth are usually badly decayed and broken down 50 that they do not keep the other teeth in position but allow them to close in. Moreover, they are usually so sensitive that the child can not chew without pain. As result he will bolt his food.
 A parent who is unaware of the dangers of infected temporary teeth ought to become better in- formed on this subject.
 Fundamentally, the trouble lies in not preventing the defects. Therein lies the real solution: pre- vention by healthful foods--includ- . ing plenty of milk, fruit and leafy egetables-during prenatal period, during infancy and childhood, by early dental care and attention to mouth hygiene.

Nothing gives a child more cour- age or a feeling Of belonging tnan to know who he Is.
 Yet here in America few or us know who our great grandfathers were, what they did, or where tney I.cane from. What other people on earth would be so indifferent about forbears? None that I know of. It isn't our fault that we know so It, tie about the past. A hundred years ago the man or woman who couid read or write was considered highly educated.
 one thing they did do. however. that we ourselves have grown care legs about, and that was to put down fin the fifteen-pound Bible all the births and deaths in the family, and inc dates. We have an old English Bible four hundred years old that goes into lengthy detail on one of the fly leaves about the chrisfenings of its children. Our pi- oneer families continued the for eign custom, but Bible cannot de- scend to every root from the main trunk. They are scattered and lost and burned in fires and the record Is lost.
 Most of my forebears were here anywhere from four to six genera tions before I arrived. Yet past my grandparents know absolutely nothing of the home life or adven- lures of those old farmer boys who fought Indians and helped break the Pennsylvania wilderness. Every day I regret 1t more. Not because I care SO much about that super ficial feeling of family" In fact I am peculiarly apathetic on it. but ] should like to know something about that interesting kite of which I am part of the tail, and of the saga that went before me.
 An Interesting History There will be no such excuse for us if our childrcn's children know nothing about us or our parents. think we owe 1t to them to leave some sort of record, however br' If, to i".orm thom of in" ri icscnt which will so soon be the past. It must be an honest record, no glossIng or four-fushnig. Brother Bill got rich and went to the legis- !ature; Sirter Annie had threc d. yorces: Cousin Jim Is fixed for life because he has q niece fat pension; Cousin Everett couldn't make hia business pay and is in the bread .iae. But 1t should cover n ecnor- ouG slice of time. Not the picture Of one yoar or two.
 Easy .O COntl"mc
 Of course. thes: th!nss arc not necessary, and Tnny men nni wo- rian would fad 90 much writing q chorc. But events and dates, names and places, nre easily writ ten down. and don't forget the birth dates and deaiE dates of everybody
 We Americans arc su nriG. We do not stay put" in communities aty more. And we don't bother looking back any further than our pnrcrts or grandparents, most of the time. There is no snobbcry in knowing who you are. Each fam fly should have some pride in un- ity-blood is still thicker than wa ter. I believe this generation owes q duty to postcrity, duty to tell tho truth about ourselves.

Be sure that you are taking your steps in the right direction when you join the spring beauty parade. If your shoes don't fit, and you go hobbling along in the procession, your mouth will droop, no matter how beguiling your lips started out to be; your eyes will have weary look; and your fore- head will encourage frown-lines.
 Watch your step if you want to be lovely! First of all choose shoes that really fit your feet. Don't buy because you like the style. There are plenty of attractive models that will please you and feel good at the same time. Feet have an anoying habit of swelling in the spring. You must have room enough to stretch your toes with out being hampered. Buy your shoes either q size larger than you usually do, q width wider or both to insure comfort.
 Heels, too, are important. Love- ly, fragile, splinter ones are gay

and glamorous for evening. If you want to party shoe so intrig uiDg that 1t suggests champagne toast elevate your ankle, by all means.
 Walking shoes, though. should never have unstable heels. Sturdy heels, which act as a support in- stead of a hindrance when you have long distances or short dis tances to go, are essential. It isn't necessary to wear fiat heels. Often they cause arches to break down. Choose heels providing comfort.
 Arches need support. A shoe that loosens its grasp at the arch doesn't deserve parking space in your wardrobe.

The danger of neglecting in- fected teeth has been heralded far and wide; nevertheless many chil- dren are allowed to retain ab- scessed teeth because they are "baby teeth. The mistaken mo- ton back of this neglect Is eager- ness to maintain space for the per- manent teeth, in spite of the pose sibility of bodily harm.
 It is sound practice to care for the first teeth so that they are re- tained the full time intended by nature to allow for the timely eruption of the second teeth. This can be done by giving the child the proper foods, including plenty of milk, vegetables and fruits, by assuring the child the benefit of competent dental care, and by making certain that the teeth are kept clean. By taking these pre- cautions, the deciduouS (frsD teeth can be retained in healthy con dition.
 But if the deciduous teeth are diseased, if the teeth can not be filled or treated successfully, they should be extracted. This state- ment will be supported by every dental authority in the dental pro- fession who advises the retention of diseased first teeth. Because some private dentists advise this unscientific practice for their pa tients have questioned several of the leading specialists in childrens dentistry on this subject. They were unanimous in condemning this practice. They pointed out the probability of the infected teeth causing systemic disorders such as rheumatism, cardiac, nervous and digestive disturbances.
 As to the belief that the diseased "baby" teeth will maintain the

CHAPTER XLIV
 Dorothys summer home faced the water on the south side of Long Island. The estate had formerly be longed to q family prominent in New York society. When they re- moved to the more exclusive north shore Dorothy had bought the place.
 The house stood about a mile back from the road. It was sur rounded by trees that concealed sta bles for riding horses and kennels housing several aristicratIc fox terriers. It would have been q lonely spot for girl of 21 had she remained there alone, but Dorothy did not. She employed q companion and chaperon whose name was Mrs Atwood. Scarcely q weekend passed at Trevorwood aS Dorothy called the place. with out number of guests. Dorothy's parties were always popular.
 Though the sea was 80 close at hand Il swimming pool had been built at the rear of the house. Across the glade smooth meadows had been converted into golf course. There were carefully landscaDed gardens. A little brook ambled through the estate and on It's surface placid swans glided lazlIy. A barn had been transformed into a recreation house with poo and billiard tablos, card room and gymna- siun,. There was everything at Trcvorwood to provide delight ful holiday.
 Sheiia arrived late Friday af- terpoon, making the trip in Doro- thy's huge town car. The butler met her at the door. Miss Doro- they, he said, was in the swim ming pool where the other guests were. Sheila was to join them there.
 A maid led the way to Shcilas s room, q spacious apartment over looking the shore and the ocean beyond. The maid busied herself with Sheila's luggage, opening 1t and hanging away the gowns. She helped Sheila into the bathing suit of delicate green jersey that Dorothy had had laid out for her. There was snug little black cap and cunning green and black bathing slippers 10 go with the suit. When Shcila was ready the maid showed her the way to the pool
 Half dozen brightly garbed water sprites lolled about the rim of the pool or flashed from tho diving board high over the clear blue green water. Dorothy rOsel from chair at the farther end of the pool and came toward Sheila, waving gayly.
