Th. next step forward In the pre

I a great dleeaw producing or
ganlam and a definite point of in
fection, which miut be foroed from
the road to good health, la the mess-ag-
brought to Medford yeeterdsy by
Dr. Chaa. A. Sweet of Oakland. Cel.,
secretary of the American society for
promotion of children's dentistry. In
an address at the county oourthouse
auditorium, attended by members ,f
the Jackson County Public Health
association, members of the county
Pamt-Teacber association and Inter
ested parents from all sections of the
county.
Speaking under auspices of the
health association, Dr. Sweet first
visited the Ales Sparrow Memorial
clinic and began his talk with
many words of praise for the
much during the past few years. He
wss Introduced by Miss Mildred Carl
ton. Cltnlo Praised.
"You reallY and truly have a re
markable, a very wonderful, clinic
for children here," he declared. "It
Is splendidly equipped and It Is an
Inspiration to see what this associa
tion has done. I would like to take
the clinic back to Oakland with me."
Taking up In detail his claim that
th. nt step In prevention will oe
through the nxutn, or. oweei ea
nlslned. "That Is why Oregon Is spon
soring health pi rams pertaining to
dentistry. Officials know that good
health will pay dividends and they
are willing to make the Investment."
"Food ground by Infected teeth,"
Dr. Sweet declared, "is dirtier than
food dropped into the street, in
faction from teeth spreads to ton
slls, adenoids and sinuses, establish
ing s vicious circle.
Means Saving.
As proof that there is money to be
saved by cleaning up wm
throats, ayes, ears and noses of chil
dren. Dr. Sweet referred to the cam
nalzn carried on In Atlanta, Oa.,
schools, where, through Improving
the health of the pupils, the attena
ancs was Increased In the schools and
the expenses decreased through elim
ination if the need to re-educate pu
pils. A similar program carried out
in the Portland schools was described
by the speaker, who added: "We
can save half the absenoes In sohool
by raising the health level."
Stressing the need for more ex
tensive health programs, especially
those pertaining to children's dsnt
Istry, Dr. Sweet stated: "There are
forty-five million children In the
United States, ten million are not
normal. Nlnisiy-elght per cent of
them have Infected mouths."
Ths scarcity of persons working In
children's dentistry was deplored by
Dr. Sweet, who stated that there is
not a dental school In the United
States teaching children's dentistry.
He referred to himself ss the second
oldest follower of this branch of
work, and stated that he had been
ta It only It years. The field Is a
new one, he added, In which there
is much to be accomplished and lit
tle money with which to accomplish
it. but one In which "we are not
discouraged, but anticipating great
strides forward."
Tea s Feature.
Following Dr. Sweet's address, a
discussion period wss carried on with

which were answered In detail. At

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 16. (AP) While
beer proponents ire testifying Vt
hearings itt Wsshlngton on ths beer
bill, "Col." Abe Slupsky, 73-year-old
philosopher, sighs.
"Why don't they ask somebody who
knows his beer, to testify?" the
"Colonel" asks. "I could tell 'em
about It."
And he opened a frayed scrap book
to show eorr.e newspaper clippings de
scribing bis demonstrations of quali
ties of the robust 8t. Louis beer of
1899. Early In that year Slupsky drank
20 pints of beer a day for 30 consecu
tive dsys. The score was attested by
downtown bsr keepers, who watched
him drink, and was checked dally by
newspaper reporters.
In those dsys the percentage of
alcohol In beer waa not much dis
cussed, but Slupsky Is sure It wss
mors than four per cent.
"Anything less than four per cent
lsnt beer," asserts "Col." Slupsky. "I
could drink those 30 pints a dsy be
cause I knew how to drink beer. I
didn't gulp It from small glasses; I
sat down and sipped It from big
lemonade glasses, estlng a few salt
pretzels. I wss overweight at the
end of 30 dsys, but I felt fine."

You can hurry through with
your morning shave if you use the
rust-resisting "BLUE BLADE."
In the first place this blade is hard
enough to cut glass. The steel is
especially tempered to take and
hold edges of phenomenal keen
ness. Easy, once-over strokes
shave your face clean. You don't
need to go back against the grain
of the beard. When you are
through shaving simply loosen the
razor handle and hold the blade
under hot water that's all. The
"BLUE BLADE" is then dean
and spodess ready for use the
next time. This is one of many
reasons why you get unequalled
convenience and comfort with the
"BLUE BLADE." Try it and see.
FOR CHRISTMAS Ask your dealer to show you our
special Gift Box containing 100 "BLUE BLADES."
You pay for the blades alone. The handsome
cigarette or jewel case rich mahogany color is free.
