appropriately called a knife-opening

differs from other closures in that on
its top is grooved slot.
To open any glass container equipped
with this type of closure, simply tap
around the outer rim of the cap with
the knife handle, insert the blade of an
ordinary table knife into the groove in
the top of the cap. This supplies the
necessary leverage to enable one to un-
screw the cap. To reseal the jar, screw
the cap on tightly by hand, or if you
wish, you may again use the leverage
of the knife to effect seal as tight as
the original.
Consumers acceptance of this new

State PatrOLmen Make
796 Traffic Arrests in JuLy.

Busy during the month of July when
pleasure and commercial travel is near
it's height in Minnesota, the state high
way patrol made 796 arrests, handed out
|2,056 must repair" tags for illegal
equipment and gave warnings to II ,633
motorists, the patrols monthly sum-
mary of reports revealed.
In contrast, during July a year ago,
the state traffic squad arrested $40
violators, the records disclosed.
In July, 108 patrolmen and officers
spent 1888 hours on duty, according
to their reports, bringing the patrol
man-hours for the first seven months of
1897 up to 158,483. During July they
travelled 370,846 miles on motor bikes
and in cars. This year to Aug. the
traffic officers had travelled 2,576, 494
miles.
During the month, state patrolmen
were on the scene at 127 accidents and
gave first aid to 10 injured persons.
Other courtesies to the driving public
consisted of assistance in 1920 minor
repairs of motorists cars, 131 orders
for gasoline, 104 calls to garages for
assistance for stalled motorists and help
for rs drivers in getting automobiles
out of bitches. The patrolmen gave in
formation to 1920 drivers.
Improper equipment was the largest
single reason for arrests and 204 drivers
were apprehended. For going through
stop signs, ITO persons were arrested;
for reckless driving, 81, and for driving
while drunk, u. Fines imposed for
traffic law violations for the month
totaled $1O,28421, bringing the years
total up to Aug. l to $57, 889.81.
Because no rear light was showing,
6O8 persons were given tags and re-
quired to make immediate adjustments.
Improper parking brought warnings
to 2,769 drivers. An inclination to
drive in the wrong lane was called to
l, 1929 motorists attention, while Excess
sive speed warnings slowed down 1,746
drivers.

Doctors Plead for
Neglected First MOLdrs.

The four six year molarS are per-
manent teeth and they arrive early so as
to assume the burden of chewing while
temporary teeth are looSening and being
replaced by permanent equipment.
Todays bulletin from the Public
Health Education Committee of the
Minnesota State Medical Association
points out to parents this and other i'm
portant functions of those much ne
elected first arrivals.
If the six year molars are neglected
and allowed to decay, proper chewing is
impossible. Not only that but the jaws
fail to develop properly. The result is
likely to be alteration of the symmetry
Of the face and crooked unsightly teeth.
The six year molars make their ap-
pearance usually between the sixth and
eighth years of life. They come into
vacant spaces in the mouth; they do not
replace other teeth and are never re-
placed by others once they are lost.
The largest percentage of decayed
six-year molars are found between the
ages of nine and ten. Either parents
have failed to recognize that these are
permanent teeth and have allowed them
to decay, or else the child's fear of the
dentist has led to delayed dental treat
ment.
Usually decay appears first as small
black spots in the grooves or on the
chewing surface of the tooth. The area
of discoloration may not increase in
size but the destructive process goes on
underneath until suddenly the hard
enamel covering breaks down from lack
of support below. When that happens
the tooth is nearly always doomed tc
come out.

he went swimming at the pool here and
in making an overland stroke he dis

sible to work the injured limb into
place.
