HAWAIIAN DISH
AID TO TEETH

SAN FRANCISCO. U.P)-HaWai-
ians, in their native dish of poi,
discovered the real source of good
teeth and bones long before mod
ern science, according to Drs. Her.
mann Becks and Nina Simmons
of the University of California.
Research into the dental super
iority of HaWaiians reveals that
poi, which has long been a lead
ing native dish in the islands,
contains an unusually large guam
tity of calcium and phosphorus.
This, coupled with the plentiful
sunshine of the Hawaiian islands,
which furnished the necessary vi
tamin D element, resulted in the
fine teeth and bones of the island
race.

 Defeated, tho victim closes the door to contacts with the world, shuts himself away from overys day life, and his mind deteriorates.
 When admitted to the hospital, the patient receives . thorougn physical examination, and every. thing possible Is done to correct physical defects.
 treatment Is designed to help tho individual to help himself.
 "Our main object in treating these patients is to assist them in r0adjuSting themselves through occupation and recreation" Dr. Williams said.
 70 Per Cent Are Released
 "In ordinary times, we were able to release 70 to 50 per cent of aN admitted, as recovered or much improved. If working conditions were as good outside aS they were . few years ago, we could senG that many back.
 Many would make excellent workmen and get along very we'll"
 pr. Williams praised tho work of the Cleveland child Guidance Clinic, which makes Q special ef- fort to detect potential schiEo- phrenlcs in young children md help them correct aladiuBtinehts.
