the prevention Of tooth decay en-
phasize the nutrition Of the teeth
rather than the tooth brush. That
view is seen on the walls Of most
dentists waiting rooms today, in
the form of placards with the adj
vice to eat plenty Of milk, butter,
eggs, green vegetables and fruits
for the sake Of the teeth.
The experiments upon which this
doctrine is based were done by an
English woman, May Mellanby.
They were begun in 1917 and still
are being carried on. She worked
on dogs, rabbits, rats and man, and
concluded that 1.-The problem of
dental carries and periodontal dis
ease (pyorrhea) is fundamentally a
problem of nutrition. and that a
lack Of Vitamin D is an important
causative factor. Howe reported
that by feeding guinea pigs diets
deficient in the fat-soluble vitamins
and the anti-scurvy vitamin,
changes in the teeth similar to
dental carries in man was pro-
duced. Lack Of phosphorus and
. calcium have also been reported to
create tendency to dental carries
There is evidently no one factor

AN APPARENT ANOMALY


A GENERAL rule is: 1.-THE suit
call best supported by partners will
win one more trick than a no
trump call with stops to all SUITS"
That added trick is usually OBJ
tanned by ruffing lead that other
wise would lose trick to defend
ers. At times, when the assisting
hand has long suit which may be
established with the loss of not
more than single trick at no
trumps or at the trump call, the
no trumps may be the better call,
as thereby finesse may be avoid
ed, which would necessarily have
to be taken at the trump call.
There are even chances of winning
a single finesse, but the odds
against winning the two illnesses,
one in each of two suits, are to 1.
North's strategy in shifting to no
trumps, as safer slam make, was
excellent, but I do not follow his
reasoning that a small slam was
assured.

What Measures TO Take
TO Preuent Dental Decay

in diet responsible for the produce
ton Of carries, either in expert
mental animals or man. Hanke has
conducted probably the best con-
trolled study in man: based on the
impressions he had gained in pri-
vate practice, he made extensive
and carefully checked observations
on the children at Moosehart, Illi-
nois, the City Of Childhood of the
Loyal Order of Moose. He con-
cluded that the most important
dietary preventive to carries was
orange juice and the juice Of one
lemon a day. This led to the dis
appearance of most Of the gum in
iammation and so per cent of the
dental decay.
We need not follow any one
school if we remember that good
wholesome food, with plenty Of
milk, butter, eggs, fruits, tomatoes
and green vegetables in childhood,
Is the diet not only for tooth
health, but for general bodily
health.
It would be unfortunate If we al
lowed these experiments in nutri-
ton to let us neglect the tooth
brush and mouth hygiene. It
would seem to be a commonsense
proposition that good teeth depend
upon three things: (1) Adequate
nutrition, (2) mouth cleanliness
and 90 the aid Of the dentist.
I The dentist can do his part by
making the teeth as regular az
possible and leveling down the
crags or bags which might catch
food particles and breed germs.
But in spite of all preventive meas
ures, small areas of dental decay
will occur, and these should be
treated early.
:. Once more let me make plea
for the first permanent tooth. It
lis a molar and comes in at the
back of the temporary teeth. 1t is
liable to be mistaken by parents
for one of the first set, and II it
becomes decayed, neglected. More
poor mouths are the result Of this
neglect than any other one thing

strong enough to satisfy anyone.
probably he just awakened to the
fact that he held quick tricks:
South, Ono Trumps.
The opening lead was the 2 of
spades. Dec1arer's Ace won the
trick. He could see that provided
the usual SO adverse distribution
of clubs held, there was assured a
small slam if a club finesse went
wrong, and trick over contract in
case 5 club tricks could be taken.
The 10 of clubs was led and al
lowed to run, when second hand
played the 4. Vests K won tina
first defensive trick. The &c Of
spades was returned. Dummys K
won the trick. Dummy ran off 4
club tricks. On the last two Of
these declarer let go his only loser
in spades and his lowest heart.
Then a diamond trick was taken
by North. Dummy followed with
two diamond tricks. On the last
one of these the declarer discarded
u
tricks for the declaring side. The
last tricks were taken with the
three top honors in hearts.
It is true that North could have
made a small slam at hearts, los
ing only single trick to Vests
K of clubs. That play would have
to be strictly a double dummy NAV
of trumps, by leading the from
declarer's hand and letting the 8
win in dummy. After that the
three top honors in hearts would be
able to pick up East's j. Nobody
would play hand in that fashion.
Normal play would be to win the
first trump trick with dunmy's @,
then either to finesse on the return
lead, or to play for 3-3 break in
the suit. Either play would cost a
trump trick i,

Dixie Theater. The program in
cluded vocal and instrumental
concert music under the direction
of Selma Flack, in charge of
colored choral work in the Fed
eral Music Project here.
The chorus presented several
numbers with the director singing
the solo parts. Singing entirely
from memory, the chorus gave
evidence of a great deal of con-
centrated training and practice

ing the concert said.
Vocal solos were presented by

never existed.
The government reports on the
mortgage question are decidedly MS
leading to the average reader.
From the census reports of 1880 we
get the following:
Total farm mortgage
dept .................S 81, al ,39U ,UUJ
Total number of farms
of owners and tenants
mortgaged ..... 4,162,l31
Total number of farms
operated by owners
free of debt. ......... 1.S45,997
This seems to mean that an over
whelming proportion of the farmers
of this country are under mortgage.
To the casual reader it gives a dark
picture. These figures, however, are
terribly misleading. There are 1854
365 tenants in this country, and every
tenant is recorded as a separate
farmer, and Il few ceres he tillS
is designated a farm. This means if a
plantation owner has 500 tenants and
has any kind of mortgage on his
plantation, large or small, the 500
tenants are recorded by the govern
ment as 500 mortgaged farmers. If
the plantation owner works hired
labor, his plantation is recorded as
one farm.
Why the government should record
land worked by tenants on a plan
tation as mortgaged farms because
the owner used his plantation as COL
lateral in securing a loan for invest
ment in other fields. is difficult to
understand.
Since great quantities of agricul-
tural land is owned by corporations,
syndicates, big estates, banks and
land spectators. the fact that this
land for the most part is mor;gaged
means absolutely nothing with refer
ence to the general condition of agri-
culture.

about business knows that it is the
