Woman's Club Holds
' Year's Last Meeting
On Thursday afternoon the Oregon
City Woman's club held their last
meeting for the year, devoting the en
tire, session to matters of public wel
fare. An address by the new county
health nurse, Miss Hilda Morris, de
picted her work in the schools, both
town and country. "What Is every
body's business is nobody's business
until a Red Cross nurse finds out that
many Oregon City children go to
school without a breakfast, buy a
nickel's worth of candy for lunch, and
go home at night to a scanty meal
prepared by a' "mother too tired too
realize that the children are under
nourished and underweight," she said.
Mrs. E. P. Hands of the library
board described the calls for books
coming in from bookless homes all
over the county, and the need of
branch libraries in every village. She
was followed by Miss Elizabeth K.
Matthews of Oak Grove and Mrs.
Parmon and Mrs. Pierce of Milwau
kee, who reported their women all
wide awake to the spirit of the time,
that the good or bad citizens of to
morrow are these Clackamas county
uoys ana gins oi loaay, wno need a
. County Library.
Other speakers were Mrs. J. W.
JNorris, Mrs. R. W. Kirk, Mrs. D. C.
Latourette, Mrs. David Caufield and
Miss cis Barclay Pratt. It was urged
that Red Cross placards hang in every
window as in war time, as it is still
war time for the unemployed. Every
woman was urged to buy a dollar's
worth of Christmas seals as a con
tribution to Christmas cheer, and not
tell the little children "I've bought
some when they come to the door.
The county budget meeting of De
cember JO came in for considerable
attention. Women are discovering
tney are citizens and voters, and are
. interested in social service.
- Mrs. Wiliam Stone led the music
with her violin, Mrs. Bennett at the
piano.
A committee was appointed to see
what can be done about the poisonous
sulphur fumes that are destroying the
Jrees or the auto park. In a short
tima there will be no trees; Tacoma
and Butte found a remedy, and Ore
gon City must, asthis comes under
the head of preservation of scenery.
said the speakers.
KEEP CAR COOL
A car should be kept out of the sun,
after being washed, until dry. Sun
light has a tendency to damage the
surface of a wet car by causing the
paint to check.
The total stress of the wires in a
Steinway piano is equivalent to a
weight of 72,000 pounds.

Dentists Forming
Coast Society
Plans for the establishment of a
Coast Dental Society to include Ore
gon, Washington, California, Utah and
Idaho are now under way, according
to Dr. Clyde Mount, who was recently
re-elected president of the Oregon
State Dental Society which held its
28th annual session in Portland.
The coast society, according t o
projected outlines, will constitute an
enlargement of the field of activities
of the state organizations. Post-graduate
and clinical work is undertaken
by the society in the interest of the
advancement of the profession, en
abling them to keep pace with new de
velopments and improved methods.
The plan proposed for the Coast So
ciety is to hold a session once every
three years, and it is expected that
the first convention will be staged in
Portland in 1925.
Striking results of denta research,
which have resulted in additional dis
coveries concerning the cause of de
cay of the teeth, were explained to
the Oregon dentists at the annual
meeting, by Dr. Percy R. Howe, of
the Harvard Uuniversity research de
partment. More than 250 members of
the society attended the illustrated
lectures which formed a part of the
clinical reports of the new dietetical
theory of decay. Insufficient nourish
ment of the proper type results in the
depletion of the vitality of the teeth
with amazingly damaging result it
was found.
It is now possible, the doctor show
ed, to entirely decalcify the teeth of
guinea-pigs by an alteration in their
diet, which may be compared to the
difference between natural foods, and
what, for lack of a better name can
be called 'Termed foods." This ef
fect upon the teeth is produced by
feeding vitamin-deficient diets. It was
pointed out that milk, eggs, green
vegetables, . fruits, whole grains,
cheese and ' nuts contain the essen
tials for development of the teeth and
bony structures of the body. Pas
turized milk is of little value as a
food and vegetables should not be
overooked, he said.
It is evident to any practioner of
dentistry. Dr. Mount points out, that
the people of many different national
ities have excellent teeth when they
live on their natural food products.
The Esquimanu is practically free
from carise. He does not live on
muscle meat alone, but he eats prac
tically the whole carcass of the ani
mal which forms his food. He gets
his calcium from the bones and some
of the tissues. He gets his vitamines
from many of the glandular organs,
but with a change of diet, histeetb
decay. Stephanson has written that
with the influx of our refined, foods,
decayed-teeth is quite prevalent among
the Esquimax and Icelanders. The
natives upon the Labrador coast, now
subsisting on bread and tea in a great
measure, have extensive decay, while
formerly they were exempt from it.
Modern diets are deficient in cal
cium and vitamines, both of which are
needed for sound teeth, and if desire
to practice preventive dentistry we
need to begin here. The other many
effects indicate the need of similar
diet for sound bodily development and
for vigor. For the fullest bodily de
velopment, every effort should bemade
to restore the teeth to their useful
ness and to retain them.

WHY YOUR AUTOMOBILE
RUNS BETTER AT NIGHT
The engine of an automobile per
forms better and has more power at
night than in the. daytime. A recent
explanation of his technical mystery
i3 that n the day time heat expands
the air so that it is lighter in wieght
than at night. Therfore at night an
engine gets more air and consequently
produces more powerful impulses. Al
so, the water keeps cooler and circu
lates more efficiently. '

Health Crusade In -County
Is Gaining
' A total of 1277 children in Clacka
mas county are enrolled this year in
the modern health crusade, and 41
teachers are on the mailing list for
this district. Last year there were
160 "crusaders" in the county.
There have been increased enroll
ments in every county in the -state,
but the gain In Clackamas county is
unusually large, due to the activities
of Miss Hilda Morris, county public
health nurse, and to a constantly in
creasing interest in health on the part
of the teachersand the school author
ities.
There are in Oregon 25,000 school
children enrolled in the health crus
ade although school has been in ses
sion less than three months. The ob
ject of the club is the formation of
good health habits by the continuous
performance of health chores, ' the
spread of knowledge concerning the
prevention of disease, participation in
athletics, cooperation with teachers,
principals, school nurses and janitors
in the interests of health and the Im
provement of sanitary conditions In
school, homes, yards and streets. The
"crusade" was started four years ago
and now has an enrollment in this
country of 6,500,000. The organization
Is based on that of King Arthur's
knights. There are caps, gowns,
shields, banners, high' sounding titles
and attractive little honor pins for
those who perform their chores faith
fully.
The annual sale of Christmas seals
by the Oregon Tuberculosis associa
tion, through which the modern health
crusade and all departments of the
association are financed, opened De
