JAPAN AND JEHOL


ALTERATION gayer in sound
than the news headlines from
this area justify! These speak
of the number of Chinese killed
in the Japanese attack of Shan
kaikwan, terminus of the Great
Wall, where this famous ram
part comes down to the sea-
after circling Peiping and the
province of Chilli. And the
reason for this tragedy is given
as-possibly-the intention OF
Japan to proceed into Jehoi
and annex that rich province to
the dummy state of Manchuo
kuo, over which she has abso-
lutte control. There was Jap
anese loss of life also in the
clash, and over 100000 refugees
from the surrounding area are
said to be fleeing towards Peip-
ing and Tientsin.
Japan gives as her excuse
for the attack upon the city at
the end of the Great Wall, and
upon Chinese territory, the be-
lief that the Japanese author
tiles got wind of a conspiracy
against the life of one of their
biggest men in ManchukuO, and
that the centre of this cOnspir-
acy was Shanhaikwan. They
asked aid of authorities in that
city, were refused and when
they attempted to carry out ar
rest this clash ensued.
But it is evident that the
movement links up with plan
of the Japanese to include Je-
hol in the puppet state of Man
chukuo. The occupation of
Shanhaikwan is possibly in
tended as a protection on the
extreme left of the Japanese as
they move on into this prov
ince. Jehol is rich in minerals,
in soil, is a great opium raising
district. One of the news
headlines says something about
Japan trying to control (and
increase) opium trade in China.
Meanwhile the tragedy of
suffering, of loss of life in this
area!

Carter, county agent, met with agri-
cultural classes of high schools, night
schools and groups of farmers thru

apparatus which shows results of
breeding over a period of years.
The speakers attended meetings as

IMPROVEMENT OF MOUTH
HEALTH is AIM OF STATE
Examinations Being Made of
Children in Elementary Schools

With the idea of finding out what is
most needed in the way of dental care
for children throughout the country,
dental examinations are being made of
children in the elementary schools all
over the United States. The survey is
being carried on under the auspices of
the American Dental Association, with
the approval of the U. S. Public Health
service, of State and City Departments
of Health and of Education, and of
State and local dental organizations.
The work is being done in each State
under the directions of State or local
branches of the American Dental As
ISOLATION. To large extent the ex-
aminations are being made by.dentists
engaged in private practice. In some
instances the work is being done by
the school dentists.
DR.. Richard C. Leonard, Chief of the
Division of Oral Hygiene of the State
Department of Health, who is in
charge of the dental survey in the ele-
mentary schools in the counties Of
Maryland, said:
"The study that is being made of
dental conditions-that is, of mouth
health-of the children throughout the
country, is similar to studies that have
been made of other phases Of child
health. The purpose is to find out all
that can be learned about conditions
as they actually are, and to use this
information as the basis of the dental
work carried on in the schools and
elsewhere.
Careful records are being kept in
each State, and through the exchange
of this information it is hoped that
great deal can be done that will have
a direct bearing upon the health of
the children.
"A report of the results of the ex-
animation will be sent to the parents"

When people leave the Park for a
short visit and consequently close
their homes during their absence, we
are frequently asked not to mention
the fact in this column. The reason
is that the burglaries of the past have

We are inclined to believe that there
will be fewer depredations of this kind
in the future. The town and county
authorities got on the job and we
think developments warrant the above
