PREVENTIVE CARE
 LESS EXPENSIVE
Corrective Dental Treat ment Proves Costly; Fig-
 ures Compared

Preventive dental care costs less than corrective services and avoids the risks of complications, accord ing to Franklin M. Erlenbach, D M. D., Chief of the Division oi Mouth Hygiene, who laid particular stress in the State Department oi Health weekly broadcast on the value of regular visits to the den- tist, personal hygiene, and daily need for variety of foods.
 Prevention in dentistry, Doctor Erlenbach explained, means "con- trol" of decay by watching closely those defects in baby and per- manent teeth most likely to cause trouble, and correcting them im- mediately. The child benefits by reducing the time needed for re- pair work and by eliminating the possibility of losing teeth. Parents benefit financially. National figures for the average cost per child pei year for preventive service is $500 to $500. The usual fee for restor- ing lost teeth exceeds these figures
 An excellent index of whether we are trying to maintain health and build strong tissues is the kind oi good placed on the table, Doctor Erlenbach stated. A variety of foods eaten daily is essential to meet body requirements, and such foods as milk or its products, fresh fruits, green leafy vegetables, eggs

Thrill upon thrill amid the storied glories of the wild northwest coun- try are in the offing for local amuse- ment-seekers at the air conditioned Warner Bros. State theater where the technicolor sensation "Untamed" opened its four day engagement this afternoon.
 Employing for its background the impressive grandeur of the moun- tains and forests of the North Canadian Rockies, and co-starring three of Hollywood's most popular personalities; Ray Midland, Patricia Morrison and Akim Tamiroff; the producers have contrived an excit- ing and completely entertaining triangle drama in its versio nof Sim clair Lewis intriguing story Man trap.
 Midland, in the role of young, personable and sophisticated society doctor has the most impressive part which has come to him since his entry into pictures.
 Miss Morrison, concededly one of the most beautiful and talented of the newer screen arrivals, has won stardom in this, only her fourth, appearance in a major production, through her portrayal of the city, bred wife of French Canadian guide and hunter.
 In the part of Patricia's husband, Tamiroff, famed as the outstanding character actor of the present day and known as the master of make up, has the most lovable and sym pathetic role in which he has been seen in years. Rugged, sincere and madly in love with his attractive young wife. he nevertheless senses the fact that she is dissatisfied with her lot, and that her interest in Midland is deeper then it appears on the surface.
 Besides the romance the picture offers amazing screen thrills that will make your hair stand on end. Highlighting these scenes is swift, swirling, bitter blizzard and one man savagely fighting his way to dis eased-ravaged city.
 Jane Darwell and William Fraw- ley head the supporting cast.
 The latest and best of the Little Pepper Series, "Out West With The Peppers" is the second big at- traction and stars Edith Fellows in the leading role.

 Mrs. Roosevelt has been invited to serve as the feature speaker on the Farm Women's Day program, Aug ust IS, while Secretary Wallace has received similar bid to appear on the program of Farm Organizations Day on August 16.
 Invited Guests
 They are two of number of Spe- cially invited guests of the seven- day program of Farm Week. Many of the latter are persons with whom or whose work farm folk are familiar. These include George L. Farley, state leader of Four-H Clubs of the De- partment of Agriculture; E. A. o. Neil, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation; L. J. Tabor, master of the National Grange; Wheeler McMillan, presi- dent of the Farm Chemurgic Associ- ation; J A. Link. adviser for the Flu ture Farmers of America; G. L.. Noble, managing director of the committee on Boys and Girls Farm Clubs; M. L. Wilson, director of CO., operation in extension service of the Department of Agriculture; Gertrude l.. Warren, senior specialist of Four H club Giris, and R. A. Turner, senior specialist of Four-H club boys.
 Not all of their number are listed as speakers according to the Fair officials. The latter point out that, with the many thrilling, entertain ing and instructive features of the Fair itself claiming attention and the numerous events planned for Farm Week participants, the oppor- tunity for oratorical display will be limited
 Registration points for the vari- ous organizations now planning to participate in Farm Week were an- nounced today as follows:
 National Grange members will register at the Electrified Farm on the Fair Grounds; Four-H Club members, at the Sealtest Building; Future Farmers of America mem- bers, at the Du Pont Exhibit; Jun for Grange members, st the Ford

 In itself, the story is filled with excitement, thrills, and action-so much so that it is almost unbeliev- able that all of it actually happened in the life of one man. This is the story of Edison while he was still young man, and does not deal with later years of his life.
 Throughout the film is woven the beautiful romance between Tracy and lovely Rita Johnson, who por- trays his wife. Miss Johnson, in her first starring role, is really superb and gives a flawless performance.
 Others who add to the enjoyment of the picture include Charles Co., burn, Lynne Overman and Gene Lockhart.

Teeth are constantly on display, when we eat, when we talk and laugh, Doctor Erlenbach stressed. Clean teeth give sense of personal pride and assurance, and dingy teeth cause people to be ill at ease. Nothing does more, he said, to aid good ap- pearance and beauty than a full set of healthy teeth, well formed and properly placed.
