The need of practical education
has never been realized rhore than
today. To go beyond the narrow
confines of the 3 R’s, and as such we
hope to contribute our portion to
this cause.
There is a time for everything, we
are taught by the Scriptures, and we
cannot conceive of a more appropri
ate time to begin teaching the people
proper hygienic care of the mouth
than to begin by training the pub
lic school children.
Teach them and supply them for
a time and they will readily see the
good.
Just at this point let me digress
long enough to say by way of paren
thesis, that through the efforts of
your most worthy county school sup
erintendent he has secured a gift
from Colgate & Co., of New York,
a cream and tooth paste as free
samples, which are to be given from
time to time to each school boy and
girl who will supply himself or her
self with a brush and take a pledge
to use the samples. This, boys and
girls, is without cost to you save the
price of a tooth brush, which can be
secured at a very nominal cost, and
one which will be sure to pay you the
biggest dividend of any investment
you can make, i. e., in preservation
of your teeth and the protection of
your usual health.
Bad teeth are directly responsible
for more stomach trouble than you
have ever realized, therefore, you
to under the laws of this state.

ought to begin early and get ‘this j
Hlibit so fixed that it will'fast you |
through life.
Most boys and girls never learn
this important lesson till they have
spent several hours in the dentist’s
chair and walked the floor all night
for a good many nights with the
toothache.
The writer of this article would j
doubtless be wearing a plate or sev- ]
eral bridges now were it not for the j
fact he formed this habit earlier and I
has his teeth inspected every three j
or four months for decays. It is j
true he has no less than fonrteen fill
ings in his teeth, but if he had known
the importance of this earlier than
! he did it wmuld doubtless have been
; unnecessary to have had any decayed
teeth at all.
This is not in a spirit of criticism
or advertising, but an effort to help
you start right, then stay right.
These packages of which 1 spoke
will be distributed to you through
your teacher in each school at a
later time, and from time to time,
until our allotment is used up, and
at the end of that time we feel that j
| there will be but few boys or girls j
j who have started well, willing to
i stop.
Your teeth do not wait till you are j
old before they begin to decay.
I have seen children time and again [
go to the dentist to have their per- \
manent teeth extracted, their par
ents thinking that they would shed
this. It is indeed a pitiable condi
tion.
These decays are responsible for;
quite a lot of nervousness, in addi- j
tion to stomach trouble, neuralgia,
foul breath and injury to the gen-j
eral health.
I am not writing this article to send
you boys and girls to the dentist, but
to show you the way whereby it will j
not be necessary for you to go.
