Most of us start with per-
fectly good teeth; then why
don't we keep 'em? A dentist
tells me that neglect is one of
the chief reasons why we need
tooth repair.
When the system becomes
too acid and the saliva acid in
reaction, the gums become ten
der and tartar forms. A lit
tie milk of magnesia used as a
mouth wash or rubbed on the
gums, is effective in restoring
an alkaline condition.
To give a child a good start
toward strong, healthy teeth,
wipe off the baby teeth with
gauze or clean cotton wrapped
around the finger and dipped
in milk of magneSia. AS soon
as the child is old enough he
should be taught to brush his
teeth himself.
A toothpaSte founded on this
principle Of keeping the mouth
acid-free is one that introduces
milk of magnesia in paste
form.
Most of our diets are acid
forming, and proper choice of
foods can help greatly to pre-
vent tooth decay. Such foods
as milk, lettuce, carrots, celery,
string beans, tomato and
orange juice, and raw and fl
brous vegetables mechanically
clean the teeth and supply the
lime, phosphorus and vitamins
required for their health.
After taking pains to use the
right foods, it's a pity if we fail
to give our teeth proper ex'
ternal care.
In brushing the teeth, place
the brush between cheek and
teeth with bristles toward the
teeth. Partially close the
mouth and brush both the
teeth and gums in a circular
motion. Starting on the upper
gums, brush back and down
over the upper, then the lower
teeth; then forward and up
ward in order, over the lower
gums, lower teeth and upper
teeth, to complete the circle.
Then open the mouth and clean
the biting surfaces of the back
teeth and the inside of the
front teeth.
Wash the brush after you use
it, then rinse it in lime water
The Washington times., 1934-04-18

or sprinkle it with salt and put
it away in a tube that allows
it to dry out, yet protects it
from dust and dirt. Proper use
of the brush is as important as
using the proper tooth paste.
One of the old mild tooth
pastes that contain milk of
magneSia, among other useful
ingredients, thoroughly cleanses
the teeth and has a refreshing
action of a mouth wash. It
also helps counteract the acid
of mouth secretions.

Oh, blackbird, how can you be
sure
That spring draws near again?
Drifts there some message on
the wind,
Some whisper through the rain?
The air is chill, and gusts Of
snow
Upon the blast are borne;
How dare you venture to a land
So barren, so forlorn?
These heavens overcast and dim
Touch mortalS to diSmay,
While you with strong and
glossy wing
Have braved the bleakeSt way.

'Sooky' Lives to
Please Fair
Owner

"Sooky," pedigreed wire-haired
terrier belonging to Miss Doro-
thy Fuller, daughter Of Con-
Sressman and Mrs. Claude A.
Fuller, Wardman Park Hotel, is
interested in no one but his
owner.
He sleeps under her bed, waits
for her every day to return from
school, and waits up every night
until she comes in.
He likes his box of toys and
is quite proud of himself when
he shows off for Miss Fuller by
walking on his hind feet.
"Sooky" is two years old.
Miss Fuller is a student OF
the George washington Uni
versity Law School.
Mrs. John Lewis Smith has
had quite a task raising five
little rabbits. They all got
loose the other day and had a
fine time eating up all the
flowers and greens in sight
at her home in Tracy Place.
They all ate themselves into
q coma and two of them died
from the effects. This was
very disappointing to "Elo"
Exnicios, who lives near the
Smiths, because Clarabelle
CMrs. SMITH had promised Flo
one Of the bunnies that died.
The dog show in Richmond
opens today. 1t will be held for
two days. A number Of Wash
ingtonians have entered their
oanines in the competition.
Now that the weather is
getting warmer (and I hope I
am safe in saying that) you
should begin to think about
having your dog plucked. Your
"Scotty" won't miss his winter
coat now.
The head foreman OF ROCK
Greek Park, who lives in a
lovely old stone house in the
Park, just in back of Helen
Marye Thomas, has several
elbows which apparently are
watch dogs "par excellence"
Just let anyone set foot on
that piece of U. S. property
and the elbows make it known.

Frances Indy, the police dog
featured here yesterday got
four ribbons at the washington
dog show last week. She won

of-and is!

1TON HOSTESS PROFFERS TWO UNUSUAL INEXPENSIVE RECIPES
Advice to the
Lovelorn
BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX
Wouldn't Speak to Him
In Church


Dear Miss Fairfax:
In my heart, I don't really
know whether I was right or
wrong. During the Easter cele-
bration in our church, I saw
a boy who's a very dear friend
of mine, looking at me almost
continually and trying to smile.
I wanted to smile back at
him, but 1 thought it would
look better if I didn't notice
him, and if seemed to be
paying attention only to the
service.
I did play-act a little and
pretended 1 was much more
devout than I really was, be-
cause all the time he was
looking at me, knew all about
it. Now he's mad with me for
treating him this way, and is
very cool and distant, when I
call him on the phone.
M. L. B.
1t would be unkind, my dear
girl, to remind you that the
way, even of the small trans
gressor. is hard. and that. in
affecting a flirtatious piety,
which was insincere, the fates
caught up with you.
Why not come out with the
truth and admit that you were
not really as devoted as you
pretended, and that you were
aware your friend was looking
at you and you couldn't resist
the temptation of playing up a
1}ft1a

something to travel in. The
suits and redingotes that are
correct now will be just as suit
able all through the summer,
and into the fall. Winter comes
late to US, and there are no
tempting lightweight things to
buy the first cool days. We
must lay them in now, in ad-
vance
The Washington times., 1934-04-18
Essential in Summer

Even if spring is late, and is
short, don't overlook the fact
that the clothes you buy for
wear right now are the back
bone of your travel and fall
wardrobe. No matter how hot
the summer, there are always
cool and rainy days, when you
must have something dark, and
often something warm.
Every person who plans a va
cation, (and who doeSn'O needs
The Washington times., 1934-04-18

With an eye to economy, or
something Of the sort, a good
many women I've talked to are
arguing that because spring
seemed to start late, there just
wouldn't be any. I'm no weather
prophet, but I've been in this
clothes business for many years,
and I think that's a very bad
idea.
The Washington times., 1934-04-18
No Bargains Coming

Furthermore, stores do their
buying differently these days.
They do not have huge stocks
on hand which they must re-
duce to get them out of sight.
They only buy as much as
they're pretty sure they can sell.
And once the season is over,
there's nothing left. So don't
wait with the idea Of rare bar
gains along about the end OF
May or first of June.
The Washington times., 1934-04-18
Spring Is In the Air

Aside from the economics Of
the thing, it seems to me that
now is the time to buy and
wear new clothes anyway.
Spring is in the air, and it
very definitely gives us ideas.
Don't suppress them! They
may get ingrown and break
out later in a rash of extrava-
CANT summer clothes.
The art Of dressing well Is
to wear always the thing that
is suitable to the time and the
occasion. SO if you would be
smart and well-groomed, wear
spring clothes in the spring,
and wait for summer to bring
out your really Summery
things.
For personal fashion advise,
write Miss Laville at The
Times, enclosing self H-addressed,
stamped envelope, or call her
at District 1000.

Shall She Write Him

Dear Miss Fairfax:
My ex-boy friend has moved
away from Washington, but
he occasionally comes here on
business. Since our misunder-
standing, I have changed my
address, and have been going
around with other men, but
do not find them really so
interesting as the ex-boy friend.
Why should we stay mad"
anyhow? AS he does not know
my new address, would it be
all right if sent him a little
note and told him I'd like to
see him again? But I certainly
don't want to appear as if I
were tracking him down. How
ever, I would enjoy seeing him
again. JANE.
BY all means, send him a.
letter and give him the new
address. It does not commit
you to anything, nor would
it make you appear as if you
were tracking him down." If
you want to make it imper-
sonal. you can get one of those
cards which tells of a change
of address, but I think it.
would be nicer for you to write
a little note.
Beatrice Fairfax, noted au-
thOrity on problems of love and
marriage, will answer your
letters personally. InclOSe self
addressed, stamped envelope.
