Seventy out of every 100 children {in the Chicdgo public schools be- tween the ages of five and seven years have decayed teeth. Ninety thousand out of 150,000 kindergar- ten and first grade pupils examined by health officials in Chicago in 1925 bad decayed teeth. The condition is one which requires immediate re- medial measures, not only in Chi- cago, but in every city in the coun- try. Defective teeth keep the school child from normal physical and men- tal growth. They cause unnecessary suffering and avoidable expense. Bad teeth are caused by. a lack of lime, which is 8 form of ealgium. Proper attention to the diet of the boy or girl will help remedy this. Do not wait to take action until tooth trouble begins in your chil- dren. Prevent it by giving atten- tion to the building of strong teeth. First teeth need the attention of dentists, experjence has taught. - A TRIBUTE TO THE BRITISH. A fine tribute to the British people was paid by Dr. Wise, Rabbi of the Free Synagogue, New York, at the Kiwanis convention. He said: "There is not a nationality, a re- ligion, a tongue, a race on earth, re- presentatives of which are not to be found within the British Common- wealth. Asa student of life and his- tory, I say to you that Great Britain has learned the problem of dealing justly with all its peoples. and faiths and races and tongues as no. other people have done up to this time." , COFFEE AND ROMANCE.

EDITORIAL NOTES. And now for that most tasty fruit ----the home-grown strawberry. The Conservative board of strategy ought to know that the blunderbuss is an obsolete weapon. ------ It is estimated it costs $6,167 to rear a girl until she is 18 and $6,077 to bring up a boy, the difference re- presenting about the cost of four per manent waves. Rev. Dr. Solandt very properly urges that the Bible be given more attention in the home. "The Bible," he sald, "is the greatest safeguard of Canadian national life and it should be in the home." The Eastern Ontario Chamber of Commerce stands open for miember- ship for municipal councils, boards of trade, Kiwanis, Rotary and kin- dred societies. There should be a hearty response so that Eastern On- tario can pull all together for big things. De Witt Foster, M.P., who was read out of the Conservative party by Sir Robert Borden during the war, is attacking the King Govern- ment at Conservative picnics. It is to be hoped no one will be so un- tactful as to call him "the old war- horse," remarks the Toronto Star.

Farmer's Advocate: A little ad- vertising would make buttermilk the most popular drink on this continent inside of five years. We ought to get away from that idea that butter- milk was made only for hogs and chickens, It's the best and safest drink for tourists on the whole list of beverages. ! As to Cadet h Milverton Bun: No one wants war, but that is not a reason 'for getting away from all forms of discipline, which are, indeed, necessary if a vigorous and rational manhood is to be developed in our schools. Neither should we sit down in a fool's pars- dies and declare that war is at an end because we wish it so. We should always be ready to police our shores should the invader attempt to aud.
