Somebody looked, and came back to tell that the thermometer said it was a hundred below zero. The freeze went on until it took Hogan and some others. The bodies were froze so hard they were used to make double-bitted axes. "We’ve got a plan,” Double Jaw Murphy, the NAM efficiency expert man said to Paul Bunyan. "Turn me loose on it. and I’ll make the big gest name that was ever made for anything. I call the plan F. and D. R.” "What could F. and D. R. be?’’ Paul asked, with due caution. "Frog and Duck Relief.” Double Jaw said. "You mean,” said Paul Bunyan, and pretty grimly too, “that you are going to give relief to frogs and ducks?” "Oh, no,” Double Jaw hastened to say. "I'll use the frogs and ducks that was caught in the freeze to feed the loggers." "F. and D. R.,” Paul Bunyan mut- tered. "I just don't like the sound of it.” 3—THE MILL (TTV ENTERPRISE Limited Sweets, Adequate Diet Good Teeth Aid - . -..... Mr and Mrs. Jack Toothman were visitors of his sister Theo Asmus the past week.

Results of the study are published in the December edition of the Journal of dental research. The in­ vestigation. part of the state-federal cooperative research on the relation­ ship of nutrition to tooth decay, was conducted by Dr. Demetrios M. Hadjimarkos and Dr. Clara Storvick. The investigators, both in the O. S. C. foods and nutrition department, found that the children at the W.C. T.
