WHY DRAG IN TOOTHACHE?

WHY DRAG IN TOOTHACHE?
Ponderous volumes on the care of
the teeth mention toothache only
as a remote effect of neglect. In
an epitome on the subject one can't
dismiss toothache so lightly.
Decay or cavity formation may
progress as far as involvement of
the pulp in the center of the tooth
before the child feels more than
tenderness or slight Sensitivity to
hot or cold liquids or to candy or
other sweets. Unconsciously the
child favors the sensitive side of
the mouth and gets into the habit
OF chewing on one side of the
mouth, which still further predis-
poses the teeth ON the unused side
to decay.
Actual toothache means inflam-
nation in the pulp. If the ache be
comes throbbing, abcess occurs
supuration, and destruction of the
pulp. The pulp is not only the
nerve structure but what is more
important the vascular structure
whence the tooth is nourished,
chiefly.
If cavity can be seen, packing
1t lightly with a wisp Of cotton
saturated with oil of cloves may
give relief. If this does not give
relief, the dentor may be able to
find the opening into the pulp
chamber, enlarge it bit and afford
vent to the blood or pus congested
or under pressure therein, thus
bringing immediate relief.
II abcess develops - commonly
called liberated tooth" = the face
swells over the damaged tooth and
the throbbing pain destroys all
sleep or peace until the abcess is
drained. The victim may have some
fever, with or without chills, If the
proper treatment is put off too
many hours.
If the abcess points" ON the
gum, of course the immediate
"lancing" of the gum boir' is al
ways advisable.
If the suppurtaticn is confined
within the pulp chamber or within
the tooth socket, relief can be given

either by immediate extraction Of
the tooth or, if the dentor believes
the tooth may still serve a useful
purpose, by draining the abcess
through the root canal or through
the pulp chamber. The quaint pro-
cedure of ignorant practitioners In
the past and some quacks today, Of
postponing surgical interference ur-
til "the inflammation has gone
down" is malpractice. The danger
from liberated tooth" ends with the
drainage of the abcess, however this
may be brought about. The damage
sometimes caused by unwarranted
delay in surgical treatment has too
often been ignorantly or viciously
charged to the treatment. Unfortu-
nately the courts of Yankeeland
share the ignorance of the public
about this. A reasonable amount of
ignorance may be excusable, but
only a veritable fool would suffer

from the mere pain, there is the GER
tainty that with every hour the

jaw bone is increasing and so is the
danger.

THOUSANDS DEAD
in EARTHQUAKE
DISTURBANCE OVER WIDE
AREA IN EASTERN
TURKEY

1STANBUL, Dec. 28.-It was
not known to what extent the
severe earthquake in Eastern
Turkey yesterday had caused
damage and deaths today, but
governmental heads here were
fearful that first estimates would
prove far short.
The severest quakes occurred
approximately 500 miles east OF
this city over an area comprising
about $4,000 square miles. Thou
sands probably were killed and
more thousands were reported to
be homeless in the district af-
fected. Cold weather and snow
is adding to the hardShips suf-
fered as homeless persons wander
helplessly in search of food,
clothing and loved ones.
Government relief agencies
swung into operation today, il
was stated, and much distress
will be alleviated within the
next twenty-four hours it was
thought.

STOKOWSKI TO CONDUCT
ADDITIONS AND DIRECT
UNIT ON TOUR OF CENTRAL
AND SOUTH AMERICA
Especial to The Citixen)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.-NYA
Administrator Aubrey Williams
announced today that the 100
young musicians who are to make
up Leopold StokowSki's all
American youth orchestra, to be
organized this winter for good
will tour of South and Central
America, will be recruited
through the State offices of the
National Youth Administration.
The arrangement was an
nounced following a conference
between Mr. Williams and the
noted orchestra conductor.
The tour is being planned with
the cooperation of the Pan-Amer-
lean Union and Mr.. Stokowski
has said that a special ship may
be chartered for the trip.
Preliminary additions will be
arranged by Mr.. Stokowski and
the NYA in six or eight central
cities, if enough satisfactory ap-
plications are received. Mr.. Sto-
koWski plans to arrange trans
portation to New York or some
other central point for those who
are recommended following the
additions. :.
The 81 State offices of the
NYA are being directed to re-
ceive and pass on preliminary
applications of accomplished
young musicians. Both NYA
workers and non-NYA young
people under Is will be eligible,
Mr.. Williams said. Experience
and some indication of high
ability will be primary require
ments. The tryouts will be open
to all young people, irrespective
of sex, color or race. Applica-
tions will be received up to
February l.
This is a worthy and patriotic
enterprise" Mr.. Williams said in
making the announcement. Il
am hopeful that selecting these
youth through our State offices
all over the country will extend
this wonderful opportunity
equally to all of our talented
young musicians, and develop a
musical group that will represent
the very best of its kind that can
be assembled"

SOVIETS ORDER 10000
FRESH TROOPS INTO
BATTLE; Firms ENTER
RUSSIA

HELSINKI. Dec. 28.-Finland
was heartened today when
heavy SHOWS again blanketed
mcst of their native country.
bringing definite advantage for
their troops in the undeclared
war with Russia.
News yesterday that Finnish
troops had advanced into Russian
territory were today doubted by
several neutral military observ-
ers. However, headquarters here
for the Finnish army again state
that such is the case. Soviets
are being pushed back continual
ly on the southern front, ap-
preaching closely the Murmansk-
Leningrad railroad right-of- way.
Reports have reached this cap
ital that 100000 fresh troops
from Russia have been ordered
TO front lines, but this factor is
counter-acted with the bolster
ing of Finnish cause by the daily
arrival of war materials and sup
plies from neutral countries and
more volunteer units to fight in
the foreign legion.
Dispatches from Moscow re-
lated of nothing happening" in
their invasion effort in Finland,
which is taken here to mean that
plenty is happening of adverse
nature" to the Russian cause.
In the north and central sec
tors, Russians again were hurled
back by Firms and Swedish snow
and ice troops on skis and skates.
Shipping tactics predominated the
counter-attackS, causing much
confusion in the Russian lines.
In one sector, Finnish head
quarters reported that a large
group of Russians had been COM
pletely surrounded and taken cap
tive.

COMMODITY DISTRIBUTION
DIVISION ABOUT SITUATION

At the last meeting of the
County Commissioners, Deem
Der 13, Commissioner T. ]. Curry
reported that an application to
the Commodity Distribution Cen
ter for food for clients of the
Keys, had met with the answer
that there was nothing on hand
but graham flour and grapefruit
juice.
1t was decided by the board
that a telegram should be sent
to headquarters, advising of the
conditions in the county and ask
if something could not be done
about the matter of securing an
increase in the provisions, and of
a different kind.
Yesterday The Citizen was
handed a communication from
Chas. l.. Crawford, Director of
the Commodity Distribution Divi-
sion in Jacksonville, as follows,
addressed to Carl Bervaldi, chair
man of the board.
Replying to your telegram of
December Ia, wish to advise that
there has been allocated to the
Commodity Department of Mon
roe County 1f,775 pounds which
they have not received at present
due to the fact that they have to
be packaged. However l am
notifying them today to rush up
the packaging and haul them to
Key West as soon as possible.
'The graham flour. grapefruit
juice and rolled oats are all we
have at present. We have or
dered number of other COM
modities and are expecting them
very soon and upon arrival in
this state you can rest assured
that Key West will get their al
