Dental Cavities Increasa
With Added Use of Sugar
High consumption of sugar by
American children is the major
cause of tooth decay which is now
occuring six times more rapidly
than the dental profession Is able
to provide corrective treatment,
according to the Journal of the
American Dental association.
In a symposium of 11 separate
articles devoted to dental caries
(decay), leading dental scientists
advanced new evidence showing
that carbohydrates, particularly
sugars, are directly responsible for
dental caries.
Principal hope for overcoming
the loss of teeth resulting from
man’s excessive appetite for sugar,
the scientists agreed, lies in great
er use of fluorides which have re
sulted in a 40 to 50 per cent re
duction in decay in children and
the development of other thera
peutic agents which will help
counteract the harmful effects of
sugar in the mouth.
Dr. Robert G. Kesel, of Chicago,
head of the department of applied
materia medica and therapeutics
of the college of dentistry, Univer
sity of Illinois, summarized evi
dence collected by more than 40
research workers in support of the
theory that dental caries is initiat
ed 1 by acids resulting from the
action of bacteria on refined car
bohydrate foods in the mouth.
Dr. Kesel cited reports from
Scandinavia. Italy, Japan and else
where which showed a decrease in
caries activity in direct propoi-
tion to the extent of sugar restric
tion during World War II. He re
ported dental caries have increased
since sugar has become more
plentiful.

tensity on the screen and in the
theater may also be beneficial to
those who suffer from "night blind
ness," one of the serious hazards
of automobile driving
Dr. Soles accompanied his en
dorsement of movies from the
visual standpoint with three warn
ings:
1. Have your vision thoroughly
examined if the movies give you a
headache or any similat discom
fort.
2. Insist on sitting at the distance
from the screen which permits you
to see clearly without conscious
ness of your vision.
3. Because movies require effi
cient distance seeing, be sure that
the glasses -you wear are pre
scribed for that purpose and are
not only for the ordinary office or
industrial jobs, which usually re
quire near-pomt visual skills.

Lesser Sunda Islands
South of Celebes and directly east
of Java lies a string of islands,
which, although dwarfed by the co
lossal si/e of the so-called Greater
Sunda Islands (Sumatra, Borneo.
Java and Celebes), deserve more
than ordinary interest. These are
the Lesser Sunda Islands, running
in an almost straight line 800 miles ,
along the southern edge of the 1
archipelago. Altogether there are
about 60 islands in this group, not
counting the tiniest of islets; of
these, about a dozen can be said
to be of consequential size, and
only six are of real economic and
social significance. These are, from
west to easj, Bali, Lombok. Sum-
bawa,’Flores, and, directly to the
south, Sumba and Timor.

Give Poinsettia a Chance
There is no need to throw the
poinsettia plant away affter 1 it
blooms and the leaves begin to
fall. Allow them to become dry,
place the plant in a warm base
ment and let it rest for three or
four months. In April or May cat
the plant back and repot it in a
good leafmold soil. Give the plant
light ' and_. sunshme. During the
warm summer months the pot may
be plunged outdoors. The new
growth may be used for cuttings or
the old stalk which was cut' off
may be cut in eight-inch lengths
and the lengths rooted in sand or
water.
