t Calls Thumb Sucking Menace To Children Evanston, HI. (U,R) Thumb tucking by children can cause permanent damage to teeth and jaws, a dental expert says. Dr. George W.'Teuscher, pro fessor of children's dentistry at Northwestern university, bases SEND HALLMARK VALENTINES When you cart enough to tend the very best Se to $5.00 SWEM'S GREETING CARDS his opinion on a study of 989 children at the school. It was found that only three of 173 youngsters who sucked thumbs or fingers showed no ill effects. The occlusion of teeth and jaws may be effected by thumb suck ing, he said, although there is still no definite finding to prove it. It was found that in many in stances children sucked their thumbs only when falling asleep. The cause, he said, may be due to fear of being alone in the dark ness. "Sometimes the habit can be cured by the simple expedient of leaving a dim light in the child's room at night," Teuseher said.

Scientist Says Skull Links Ape And Man Brisbane, Australia. U.Rt Prof. R, A, Dart claims to have discovered a prehistoric skutt which links the human race with that of the apes. Dart, who is dean of the fac ulty of medicine and dentistry at Wiwatersand University, Johan nesburg, South Africa, returned to Brisbane for the first time since he left, in 1918, as a cap tain to the Australian army med ical corps.

He said his prehistoric skull is that of an infant taung and that it is 1,000,000 years old, filling up the gap between the most ad vanced apes and very primitive man.

The answer to those questions is being soupht by Douwc btuur- man, an assistant professor at Santa Barbara college, Univer sity of California.

FISHER FIOURING MILLS COMPANY, SEATTII Only Little Wrong With Offender Car Dublin 1I.R) A man who was fined four guineas tS12) because his car was held together mainly by cord and Providence, protest ed that it had only a "few things" wrong with it. The Judge still thought the fine was reasonable when he read aloud a description of the car, which said: "The bonnet was tied with cord; there was neither hand brake nor foot-brake; the steer ing wheel turned almost fully around before it acted on the wheels; the rear mudguard was held in place by a rope; the off side driving door was a fixture with no handle, and entry had to be made through the nearside door; the right window was fixed so that a hand signal could not be given; the horn would not blow, and the front mud guards were loose.' "Did you say a 'few things' or did I imagine it?" There was no answer. Even Heating In Home Advised For Comfort Lincoln, Neb. U.R When a home heating system fails to dis tribute heat evenly, the chances arc the trouble can be traced to the location of the thermostat. E. A. Olson, of the University of Nebraska, said that uncom fortable, chilly feeling around the house often indicates un even, rather than too little, heat. Place the thermostat on an in side wall, where an even temper ature can be maintained, he ad vised. Other rooms will not be comfortable If the regulator it self is varmed by sunlight, a fireplace fire, or warm air from a register or radiator, or cooled by drafts from stairways or doors. If there are small children in the house, the thermostat should be placed about two feet above the floor to insure a comfortable temperature for them, Olson said.
