Nearly 100 local firemen, dele
gates from throughout Kent coun-
ty and guests from other parts of
the State attended the seventy-sev-
enth meeting of the Kent County
Flremen's Association in the fire.
house Thursday night. The bust
ress session was proceeded by a
turkey dinner served by the Ladies
Auxiliary. The hall was decorated.
The women who served were all
dressed in white with bright red
ties. E. S. Jones, past president of
] the State association, of Middle
town, and Warren t. Moore, of
Harrington, both organizers of the
association, were among the
guests. Members of City Council
headed by Mayor Wilbur E. Jacobs,
former Mayor A. L. Harrington
Magistrate w. H. Cahall, Chief Of
Police, Fred Marvel, superintendent
of Schools j. G. Messner and G. E.
Keyes, past president of the Ro-
tary Club, also attended. Mayor
Jacobs made the address of well
come and State President Willard
p. Boyce responded. The Rev. H.
L. Schlincke made the invocation.
John Bamberger, of Cheswold, was
awarded a luncheon set by the
auxiliary. The first chief of the
company, Chief Morris P. Kichline,
spoke. Volunteers. he said, do not
get enough credit for their work.
The main speaker was to have been
Chief F. j. O'Conner, of Pennsville,
N. J., but the weather prevented
him attending. Mr.. Keyes substi-
tuted. He is head of the Land
Utilization Division of the Resettle-
ment Administration. The State,
he said, should provide funds by
taxation for support Of fire COM
panies. A one mill tax would pro-
vide ample funds, he insisted, and
would eliminate going before the
Legislature every two years for an
appropriation. Fire Recorder
Thomas Baker said he is preparing
his annual report, relayed by some
of the companies failing to report
promptly. The schedule commit
tee and the resolution committee
on the Safety Drive completed
their assignments and were dis
charged. The firemen stood in 81
lence for one moment in memory
of the late Marcus w. Reed, presi-
dent of the Camden-Wyoming Fire
Company. The secretary was in
structed to write a letter of con-
dolence to the widow and to the
Camden-Wyoming Fire Company.
F. E. Burke, of Clayton, described
the new piece of equipment for the
Clayton Fire Company, motoriz-
ed water wagon of 500 gallons for
rural fires. w. w. Pettijohn, of
the State Memorial Committee,
showed a blue print of a proposed
memorial to State firemen and add
ed it would cost about $4,000. He
suggested 500 contribution from
each company. One member from
each company will be added to the
Memorial Committee. Others who
made remarks are: Charles Como
way, president of the Sussex Coun-
ty Association; the Rev. Tawes,
State chaplain, Magnolia; State
Vice-President Reuben Steward,
Seaford; the Rev w. S. Cantwell,
Cheswold; H. L. Owens, secretary

FALLACIOUS IDEAS
 CONCERNING TEETH
State Dental Chief Corr rects, Speaks on De.
 velopment, Care

Old-tine, fallacious theories con- corning the care of the teeth and particularly the development of the infants dental structure in the foetal state were dissipated by Dr. Franklin M. Erlenbach, Jr., in the departments weekly broadcast to- day. Dr. Erlenbach was interrogat- ed by Elizabeth c. Nickerson, direc- tor of the Bureau of Public Health Instruction.
 There is no foundation for the idea that an expectant mother should not have dental work done, but she should consult her physi- clan first, Dr. Erlenbach said at the same time scoffing at the theory that a bad tooth is bound to be lost anyway when in that condition. No two diets, one for bone building and one for tooth building, are nec- essary, for there is no difference between the two. If the mothers diet contains plenty of milk, fresh fruits and vegetables, 1t forms both bones and teeth and so all parts of the growing body will be developed. MilS produces human milk, protects the body protein and furnishes the vitamin A needed for growth and health. It furnishes lime or cal- cium, important to the formation of teeth, calcification of which be- ginO at the 17th week in pregnancy ana is complete at birth. The mother should select her food care- fully even after the birth to pro- vide strength and health while she is nursing the baby.
 Second Teeth
 The second teeth begin to calcify about . month before birth, 50 that any idea that one has no worries about them until after the baby cuts his first teeth is false. The rst teeth provide space for erup- tion of the second teeth and stimu- late bone growth so the second teeth can erupt, or thrilled cavities results in deformed dental arches and may even affect the facial con- tour. This leads to improper mas- tication and poor digestion. Care of baby teeth is therefore impor- tant.
 Proper Food
 Proper food has its influence on the teeth of the adult, since 1t helps maintain general good health and can probably prevent cavities al- though this has not been definitely proved. Milk and cod liver oil are vital factors in calcification. The old theory that a clean tooth never decays has been worn threadbare, Dr. Erlenbach stated, but brushing is needed to develop the gums and to remove food particles that would decay if allowed to remain between the teeth. Correct diet, daily brush- ing and frequent visits to the family dentist are the factors leading to oral health of child and adult.

PARTNERS DIE
 WITHIN MONTH
James J. Ferguson of Worcester Dies Sud-
 denly; Known Here

Waterbury acquaintances of James ]. Ferguson of Worcester, Mass, were shocked to learn of his death, which occurred suddenly yesterday morning at his home, 30 Beaver street. MT. Ferguson was brother ln-law of the late Timothy J. Shea, father of John F. Shea, local man. ager of the Goodrich -Silvertown stores, and was also associated in business with him of recent years.
 By strange coincidence the death of Mir. Ferguson came almost ex. actly one month after that of MT. Shea. Mir. and Mrs. Shea of this city are in Worcester attending the funeral, which will be held tomor~ row morning at 10 o'clock in St. Peters church with burial in St. Johns cemetery.
 The deceased is survived by his wife, three brothers, two sisters, and several nieces and nephews.
