because the parents are not of the Importance and
sy OF dentistry for children Intact few parents arc
about the preventive performed in modern cbiId
dentistry for the benefit of the chds future dental heh

companed by pain and fear of having the tooth extracted %
child cngs to the parent and the cngs the child In
order to treat such child successfully the doctor must have
the cooperation of the parents as that of the child Tb
fore few suggestions for parents follows:
The chlds first introduction dentistry should no noa
ant one This be accomplished by an early examination 20
the primary teeth including any other measures that
the doctor might deem necessary Thus child is conditioned
for future dental operations that might be necessary @
as cleaning of the teeth, Filings exractions.
The chids behavior frequently determined by the parents
presence in the dental operating An unry child can o.
ten be controlled simply by asking parent to leave the op
ang room Thus the child seeing that the parent is in accord
with the doctor is more apt to cooperate.
Parents should join in the discussion while the doc
tor speaking to the child because then the child will listen
to Parents should say ut will hurt YOU be-
the word hurt might fear in the child II best
to say that the doctor will be careful that the child will
become better dental patient
Many children cry the dental office because of fear even
before any dental operation attempted Therefore parents
should not become disturbed and rush comfort crying child
because the parents intervention makes the child more difficult
to handle
Perhaps the most important suggestion for parents to
learn and appreciate the value OF good dental health for ever
Then discuss modern dentistry home with the children so
that your child will know why he is taken to the dental office

Mr.. Quigley goes forth to mention how
Mr. Riley in his role, would assemble and

Ezzard Charles was no fool when he
went into that ring with Joe Louis. He
knew that the folks still considered Joe the
champ despite all the hggledy-piggledy over
his match when Joe retired. Ez was glad of
the opportunity to prove, once and for all,
that he was the champ.
Ezzard proved that point In the rounds
that followed, but he proved something else
when they handed him tv microphone for
: comment for his vociferous aims to be as
great and as clean champ as Joe LOUIS
won him more friends that carload OF

MORE BRAIN AND LESS BRAWN,-
BY EARL

Last week city in South Carolina was minus
a draft board when the entire board resign
ed in protest to selectve service rule that
allowed the deferment of college students for
one school season. One board member stated
mat the rule was not fair to the poorer BOYS
who cannot 90 to school. In certain cases the
board may be right but in my opinion the
gentlemans statement shows very little of
the true side of this situation for there are
poor boys in college as well as the rich and
well to do, and further more. we know of no
college all OF the students of which are rich.
why not draft another draft board!

Fundamental thinking is most essential
characteristic of a good executive, says an

Before that he went to school long past the time most
other boys grow up and begin to take their

Day after day, Junior Block his dirty Blade to
agitate industrial workers in Toledo
He is playing around with the security of Toledos
workers. like child playing with dangerous knife

If Junior Blocks daddy were alive maybe you could
appeal to the old gent take the little brat his
knee and hammer some sense into him.
But Daddy Block has passed on, and Junior Block
free discredit what passable newspaper
bargaining has worked better than in any city in the
country
But what is worse he is free to continue to spew out
his evil propaganda in way that delays the time when
the older workers of Toledo get the justice that theirs
by rightpensions when they too old to work and
are still too young to die.
Sometimes you wonder - like most tired wealthy
men, Junior Block not quite in his labor
policies
Could this sly, little fellow think that he is saving
himself the cost of pensions for his workers by fight
ing against pensions for Toledos older workers?
If this last statement is untrue then why don't the
the Toledo Blade and Mr. Paul Block Jr start paying his
employees of the Toledo Blade and Toledo Times

in aid to the states, the funds

laws of each state. (2) The

strict Federal aid to needy

which Is like the Senate's Bill,
except that it provides con-
tributions for transportation

Federal funds be settled in

day when testimony in the

of a report on how Taft

which our group studied last
fall, probably will figure
prominently in that report.
It Is difficult to predict how
soon our report can be ready,

Services financed by funds de-

paign, the director stated, range
from special training equipment
for schools and clinics to COM
plete maintenance of medical
treatment centers for the cere-

Easter Seal agencies in the state
provided more than 100 differ
ent types of service to crippled
people at a cost of nearly $4O0,-
600, he said.
When the cost and variety of
service are taken into account, ;"
Mr.. Underwood stated, lit Is
easy to understand why we are
counting on the generosity of
Ohioans this year more than
ever before. In 1949, the people
OF our state contributed $375,-
833 through their purchase of
Easter Seals. We hope TO go
over last years top because
more, not less, service Is needed.
Many handicapped people still
remain In need of help to help
themselves.
Stimulates Help
The Easter Seal letter, the d.
rector explained, not only raises
the money needed but also sti-
nulates new requests for help
from people who had not known
before that something could be
done about their handicap or
that certain services existed.

funds raised will remain In the
