There can be no question of the harm that is done children who are brought up in a home where there is perpetual strife and wrang- ling between their parents. and where they are taught by precept and example to dishonor them both. Such family scenes sear a child's very soul in its infancy. They burn up all belief in everything good and fine. of passions for one too young to understand make it cynical and Listening to the mother's charges against the father and the father's accusations against the mother slays all respect for both, and home comes to be a place of torment and discord from which it hard. escapes as soon as it possibly can.

Then wash them. not with soap but with a substance manu- factured especially for washing milk utensils. Many of these are on the market. Rinse all utensils in very hot water after washing and then put them on racks to dry. Just prior to using the strainers. milk pails. and cans. rinse them with a solution of chlorine water. When this is practiced bacteria in the utensils are kept completely under control. Never use a dish rag for wash- ing milk utensils. for it carries too many bacteriaHGet a brush or PREVENTING DECAY 0F TEETH -...ec fSocial ..... .. “THE GUARDIAN. cnaangrrerown_ > ___...-_ ....-___._.,- w\¢\ ccec- \4\4\4\<\.\- onfasio Of Yours BY SODIUM FLUOBIDE When we read the report of one Group of research workers showing that the use of fluorides in drink- ing water or applied directly to the teeth prevents decay o! teeth to a slight extent only, and then read the report or another group or den. 1&1 research" workers showing that fluorides applied directly to the teeth prevent decay by not less than 40 Der cent, we wonder which group is right. The truth is than ll'l the first group the percentage of fluorine was too low and the num- ber of applications ares insuffic- lent. In the “Public Health Reports," Drs. Donald J. Galagan and John W. Kn-utson present a study of the amount of tooth decay found 5r six groups of children in Miami Gill-mil’, Ohio. Three groups received two, four, and six different appllz- ations to the teeth of a 2 per cent solution of sodium fluoride while the other three groups received _ four. and six applications of a 0.96 per cent lead fluoride. Half of the children in each group were treated on the right side of the mouth, and the other half on the left side, The teeth that were not treated served as controls-that is, were used in com- parison with the treated teeth. Be- fore the fluoride treatment was given. an examination was made and the applications were given a: the rate of two a week. After waiting a year. an exam- ‘cetlrn was made to find out the effect of the fluoride applications in preventing decay of teeth. It was found that four ennllc. ' " c‘ a t! per cent solution of sodium fluoride is the least amount required to give best results in pre- venting tooth decay. Two ED13110- atlons of sodium fluoride resulted in about 22 per cent less early de- clay in treated teeth than in un- treated teeth; four treatments re- duced early decay in treated teeth by about-fl per cent. . No reduction in tooth decay was shown with two. four and six ao- pilcations of a saturated lead fluor- ide solution. The results of the above experi- ments are the same as those ob- tained by other research workers. Applications of a 2 per cent sodium fluoride solution give best results in preventing tooth decay.

"l" - After a sleep which was really a slumber. and most refreshing and a breakfast taken with hearty ap- petite we continued our iourney about raid-morning. So many things I note in memory to recount to James on my return home. 1 shal. tell him and "ours" about odd pas- turing herds we saw and lone Jer- seys on tether; of flocks of sheep nibbling the green between boui- der-dotted pastures; of the horses’ we saw since we left The Island. These we can count on our fin- gers. I shall tell also that the meal of fruit, toast and coffee. bacon and eggs was prepared and served deftly by masculine hands, and how even before this we might nave had our coffee served to us before rising! Our road this morning fol- lowed through a lovely pan of Maine, where villages almost hold hands and indeed often merged into towns and cities. The now familiar mist and dampness which has attended our trip was with us at starting though it changed to fitful sunshine as the day wore on. l O U We presently left Maine behind us. a State we shall remember for many pleasant ncidents and enter- ed New Hampshire. Though scious of it, one could scarcely point out the change. i-iere we caught sight of odd farms with signs at gateways to indicate spec- ialized farming: ‘eggs for sale’ or "roasting fowl" "cream and milk" or others of the familiar wares. One glimpsed iris in bloom and li- lacs, the white and the purple though not yet in full blossom. As before, homes and la\vns were well- kept and now we fancied other colors neighbored the white oi the Maine houses. O I I Everywhere folks have been most helpful and nice. I recall now the genial policeman who noting our number plates when we asked a direction said with an accent like Pat's: "Shure sn' is it from Prince Edward Island you are-an‘ isn't that quare now? for vl'esn't my own mother from there--a Trainor. Would you be knowin‘ any by that name?" I nodded recalling the truck that had come to the yard to bear away our potatoes and the name Jamie and I had spelled out -and the lad with the engag- ing smile. "I've never been down there myself" he continued but added with s nice twinkle "but I'm cumin‘? Another directing traffic at a busy intersection called: Ahd how's potatoes?" saluting us nicely as we moved slowly and carefully in the traffic. And a third one said merrily "Ain't that a coincidence now! The wife's mother's from there! One official we met had "a sweetie pie" from there but "dldnt know much about it" himself ex- cept that "you get there by way of» a ferry." No one we talked with on our trip was unaware of The Is- land's existence, Some had enjoy- ed its Summer delight or knew of them on account of having some relative born or living there and spoke of it wistfully and with much respect.
