Permanent teeth are formed very
early in life. You can have your
teeth fixed anytime you want after
that, but you can never restore what
your teeth lost in the beginning.
Which brings us to the question
OF how and when to begin dental
care.
AS yet science has not been able
to tell us the whole story about
the cause of and cure for dental
carries (decayed teeth. Science has,
however. shown the importance of
diet in forming normal teeth and in
keeping them. Teeth, like any other
structure, stand up better when well
fortified.
Long, exhaustive research gives
us a pretty clear picture Of tooth
structure and tooth needs. Teeth
are made up largely of minerals,
calcium, and phosphorus. They are
nourished ny the same supply of

q. When was the United States
Children's Bureau established, and
what is its work?
A. It was the first public agency
created in the world to consider
childhood as a whole. 1t was estab-
lished in 1912 as center of research
and information concerning the
health and welfare of children, and
was an expression of the belief Of
many individuals and associations
that children are the most import
ant Of the Nations resources and
that the Federal Government should
foster their development and pro-
lection by means that have served
in other fields of national interest.

had not bothered to have bridges
made. She had heard that some
dentists can install peg teeth to all
spaces without disturbing teeth on
either side Of the space, teeth built
on some kind Of metal posts or pegs
which are literally screwed into the

Yes, indeed. another woman here
remarked q peg tooth solves the
problem In some cases where o single

dentist installed o peg tooth to re-
place lower incisor two years ago

type herself. Wendell Wilkes spon-
sors need have no fear that Edith
Wilk Willkie will not be q definite
asset to their candidate through the
gruelling campaign months ahead.
Most Importantly Mrs. Willkie
will continue, as she has in the
past to make for her husband
home that is real heaven of rest
"a place that is quiet and peace
full, where he can think and read
and think some more, completely
undisturbed.
"In the ten years we have been
in New York." attractive Mrs.
Willkie told me, "our social life
has been limited to seeing a few
plays and hearing a little good
music each season and seeing a
few close friends. We have never
gone out great deal, or had many
friends around.
1--WE like people, Of course. But
If we had spent the past ten years
in round of social activity, Wen
dell Willkie would not have had
time to make a thorough study of
political science, economics and
foreign affairs-as he has done.
"And I - would not have had
time to keep up with the things
that have interested my husband
most. AS it is, he talks to me about
his theories, his ideas, his plans. And
so an evening is never dull.
SHE WILL APPEAL

In addition to maintaining

Willkie will be helpful in other ways.
She'll appeal to voters in all Sec
tions, of all classes.
She's definitely not the club
woman type - in fact, never has
belonged to any clubs. But she's in
terested in subjects dear to the av-
erage club woman's heart and well
enough informed regarding them.
She can talk about clothes with
the fashion minded, but she dresses
conservatively herself.
II wear dress I really like until
it's practically in tatters," Mrs.
Willkie smiled. IT don't like to shop.
Three or four times year I simply
go out and get what I need to wear,
then forget about clothes until I
really need some more"
For the most part, Mrs. Willkie
wears tailored suits, simply
dresses of the softened shirt-waister
variety and flattering, not-too- ex-
treme hats.

She has naturally curly, brown
and gray hair which she washes
at home, patting the waves into
place herself. Her complexion is
perfect, her figure just right for
a mature person. She's extremely
graceful - treads so lightly that
you wonder whether her feet are
actually touching the carpet. She
loves to dance. She does not play
games or go in for any active
sports at ALL She does not smoke.

not embarrassingly so. She has

blood nourishing all other parts Of
the body.
To build these teeth we must have
generous amounts of Vitamins D
and G. In terms of common foods
that means milk, heading the list,
fruits and vegetables, especially to-
matoes and citrus fruits, next. The
Vitamin D is not supplied very gen.
erously in food, except Vitamin D
milks, and so it must be secured
either in concentrate, such as fish
liver oil, or else by exposing the body
to the ultraviolet rays of the sun.
To assure good teeth for children
a campaign of education should be-
gin with the mother. She must
learn the necessity of an adequate
prenatal diet and she must con-
tinue that adequate diet for the
child with the protective foods from
the first day of the child's life.
NEXT: All about vitamins and
where you find them.

Report on d. Welfare
PIeases Director bondv

Welfare Director Robert e. Bondy
said today he was highly pleased
with the report on District welfare
needs made public yesterday by the
Public Health Subcommittee Of the
House District Committee.
He pointed out, however, that the
report was concerned only with in
stitutional needs, and did not at
tempt to cover current needs for
public assistance and child welfare
services.
"It is important" he said, that
the public should not lose sight OF
the needs in these two large fields
Mr.. Bondy said he believed the
report is of great value in calling
attention to needs which have ac-
cumulated because of insufficient
appropriations. The question of how
much money will be needed to put
the subcommittee's proposals into
effect must be decided by the SUBJ
committees on District appropria-
tions.
