DentUt M?k?? Hobby of Canting Gold Dragoni When Dr. Raymond E. Myers, rw aearch dentist at the University of Louisville school of dentistry seeks relaxation from his work, he takes a busman's holiday and casts gold dragonfties instead of gold inlays. . The research dentist recently exhibited the gold bugs, spiders and crickets, exquisite examples of his hobby. "This is one way of showing the accuracy with which inlays for teeth and other dental structures can be made by the casting process," Dr. Myers said. "Incidentally, the famous Renaissance goldsmith, artist and lover, Benvenuto Cellini, used a method almost exiCtly like the one modern dentists use, for the castings he made in gold and other metals." ' describing the method of "making gold bugs," Dr. Myers said firs! the insect is chloroformed; hot Nvax Is placed at the joints so his legs won't curl up. Then he is placed in a steel flask and plaster-like material covers him. The flask is heated to a red-hot consistency and the bug is cremated. His ashes are poured out of the flask through a pipe-line which has been left from the bug to the top of the flask. Then the melted gold is forced through. When the plaster cast is opened there's the gold bug exact in every detail down to the tiny tracings op toe wings. r. v It takes about $45 or $50 worth of gold to cast a solid gold adult dragonfly which makes a lovely lapel pin. Spiders and crickets come cheaper. Vitamin Adequate Meal Essential to Good Health Vitamins are substances foUnd in foods, small quantities of which are necessary to life. They are chemical compounds with very definite, formulae and have now been isolated and made up to be sold as concentrates on the market. Human beings cannot make vitamins in the body so it hi.necessary to obtain them from outside sources ?in our food. Since animals store some vitamins and plants manufacture them we can find them in all types of food. However, it is essential to know how np/my units of a vitamin are necessary for our daily diet and in what foods we may find them. There are now seven vitamins with which we are familiar. There are several others but so far there has not been enough work done on them to determine their roles. Those which are now most common are vitamins A, B1 and B2 (parts of the vitamin B complex), C, D, E, F and K. Of these, vitamin D is the only one which does not occur fc abundance in food. A severe lack ot one of these produces a "deficiency disease." In order to preserve the vitamins in foods one must be careful in cooking. Vitamin A is destroyed when heated in the presence of air and, since it is fat-soluble, is also destroyed when fat becomes rancid. Vitamin B may be lost in the cooking water from panned vegetables. Combating Disease Germs A mold of extraordinary germ-killing power has been revealed by Dr. Edwin C. White of the Brady Institute, a Johns Hopkins university scientist. He claims discovery of a remarkable mold, a tiny plant organism, that will be used in science's war against disease germs. According to the scientist, it is the "filtrates," the fluid solutions produced by the mold's cells, that have the property of killing and checking disease germs of both the major varieties "gram-positive" and "gram-negative." Molds of thousands of kinds are known to biologists. They axe plants devoid of chlorophyll, w. green coloring matter of the leaves. Some moulds are harmful and 6th? ers are useful to man. According to Dr. White, the newly found moki'j, cells will not be u$ed. AD that is useful Is the fluid produced by the cells. , t, r m Salvation ef Picture Industry New ideas jn'/ffln storfb in| treatments, presented (Dtt .d *?# pretentious scale, will prove the salvation of the motion-picture industry despite the loss of millions ..of dollars in revenues dent of a large production company!
