IF HAzEL'S testimony had
weighed In Vlctoria's favor, Ber-
nice's hat did so to even greater
extent. Tuck decided. looking at It
with unprejudiced eyes. that II was
the most extravagantly ridiculous
hat he had ever seen. Although
dressed entirely In severe black,
Bernice had allowed herself one
flourish. The hat which topped her
sleek coiffure was made entirely
OF pink feathers, overlapping as do
the feathers OF q bird. The hat
dipped crazily Gown over one wide
brown eye. and what held II to her
head he could not guess. From the
exact center of the round, forward
tilted, pink-feathered crown. which
was about the circumference Of a
pancake, a startled looking fun OF
black leaped toward the eye Of the
beholder. That hat made Bernice
look like q foolish. gtddy woman,
quite capable, for q foolish. giddy
reason, OF getting rid Of the poison
In her friends kitchen.
Bernice's breathless, tiny voice

Fluorine Seems
to Prevent Decay
in Teeth

III GGlA
By HERMAN BUNDESEN. NJ. D
SOME years ago, a startling OBJ
servation was made concerning
tooth decay. 1t was noted that the
amount Of tooth decay among peo-
pie living in communities in which
the water supply contained fiuo-
rine was significantly less than
that in neighboring communities
where the water was free from
huorine.
1t is not yet known just how this
fuorine-containing water pre-
vents tooth decay or carries. 1t is
known that calcium or lime and
phosphorus are needed for build
ing teeth, and that these sub
stances will not be utilized unless
sufficient vitamin d is supplied.
An Experiment
For this reason Drs. Lyon P.
Stream Of New York City and Jean
p. Beaudet Of Quebec carried out
q study on a group Of children US
ing tablets containing not only
a fuorine preparation but also
Vitamins.
The children were divided into
three groups. Two types of tablets
were administered, one containing
calcium fluoride. and vitamin C
and d. The second tablet contained
only calcium fluoride. One group
of children was given the tablet
with the fluoride and vitamins.
The second group received only
the fuoride while the third group
received neither.
X-rays Of the teeth Of the chill
dren were taken before the study
started and no children were used
unless they had at least three cav
tiles in the teeth at the time.
1t was found that in the chill
dren who received no vitamins or
fiuoride there was an increase Of
45 per cent. in the number Of cav
tiles in the teeth. The calcium
fluoride alone reduced the increase
70 q per cent. The giving of vita
minis c and ID with the fiuoride re-
duced it to "a per cent. However,
it was found that all these chill
dren were taking cod-liver oil.
A second study was then car
ried out in which one group Of
children was given the vitamins
and the fuoride while the second
group received no special treat
ment. These children did not re-
ceive cod-liver oil. In this study
it was found that there was only
a 10 per cent increase Of cavities
in the group receiving the vita
min-fuoride mixture while there
was 95 per cent increase in the
untreated group.
II would appear that the use Of
the vitamins with the calcium
f1uoride may have a greater value
in the prevention Of tooth decay
than the use of either alone.
Further studies along these lines
probably would be Of some value
in determining the extent of pre-
Vention obtained and possibly
some knowledge as TO Just how
these preparations act in the pre-
venticn Of tooth decay.

When the treaty OF Versailles

Everett E. Smith of Juneau has been named Field Manager of OPA's District Office at Fairbanks, to succeed Reuel Griffin who has resigned after service in this posi- tion since August 1944.
