THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1929 PAGE THIRTEEN MANY ADULTS HAVE UENTAL INFECTIONS [CPORTS DECLARE Of 800 Pztients Treated at C. N. E. 700 Requ'red X- Rays for Conditions (By Canadian Press) _ /Toronto, Ont, April ;10.--The anndal report presented hy Dr. Fi J. Conboy, director of denthl serv. "fees, to Hon. Dr. Forbes Godfrey, minister of health, eontains a sums= mary of the conditions found in the mouths of the patients who presented themselves at the dental clinic at the Canadian National Ex- hibition. The purpose of the elinie was to make a mouth examination of those desiring to take advantage of the facilities, and also to gain further information on dental con- ditions among the adult popula- n, Slightly more than 800 patients were received and about 700 requir- ed one or more X-rays. The clin- ical evidence gathered by the ex- amining dentists and the informa- tion secured from th: X-ray ple- tures indicate a large proportion of the adult population have mouth conditions whieh are detrimental to health. The X-ray evidence showed the vast majority of those who tion, and many of those who show- ed a considerable amount gave a history of suffering {rom some phy- gical ailment. "It would, of course, be impos- the mouth, infections with the systemic sible 'to definitely link up disorders as cause and effect, but from the frequency of the ent, backed up by modern thought in regard to focal infection, clusion that dental disease stons much general ill-health," the report says. "Nor would these who think all been extracted; In some their teeth have free from trouble, patients wearing both upper fower dentures (plates) eess areas in the bone. fliese were sufrounding root heal after the bad tooth had been extracted. The X-ray had definite residual fection and an additional ken-off root tips. "The number of impacted or un- erupted teeth shown in the radio- graphs is convincing evidence that common As it this condition - is more than it was thought to be. is known that certain disorders of the nervous system and even a mental breakown may result from the nerve pressure caused by these teeth, it may be wise to point out essity of making a complete aphic examination for paetions in all cases pre= sented were carrying dental infec- cases whert both cenditions™were pres- one might 'reasonably come to the con- occa= eases and had abs- Some of tips which had been left in, and in oth- ers the abscess area had failed to findings showed 19 per cent of the patienuw areas of in- 10 per eent had abscess areas around bro- es, and a mouth examination shows ! that some teeth are not in place. "An impacted tooth is one that because it is trying to erupt in the wrong direction ig prevented from wetting into its proper position in the mouth being obstructed by the root of another tooth, These teein often exert pressure on a nerve, and thus cause considerable trou- ble, The X-ray pictures showed the cuspids and wisdom teeth are the chief offenders. "The clinicians found many pa- tients who had lost such a num- ber of teeth as to make it impossi- 1 ble for them to properly chew their food. In quite a few of their cases thd patients were suffering from some digestive derangement. The case histories indicated a close re- lationship between the inability to properly prepare the food for di- gestion and the digestive disturb- ance. "The dental work in the mouths of the patients who presented themselves for examination was in the vast majority of cases very well done. Few of the patients, how- ever, had received regular and ade- quate dental attention. They had not placed upon any one dentist the responsibility of protecting their dental health. They had looked upon dentistry as a service which provides fillings and replace- ments where necessary, rather than as a health service. This concep- tion accounts for the immense number of dental infections in the mouths of some who have been re- ceiving dental treatment. The idezl service both {from the standpoint of health and economy is for a patient to go to a dentist regularly so that dental disease mdy be discovered and' cured in its early stages. "It was found in a large number of cases 'dental diseases were al- lowed to confinue for too long a period before professional assist- ance was sought. This resulted in the loss of pulps (killing of nerve) which could have been saved. Had the cavities received attention when they. were small they could have been filled, and the pulp kept alive and healthy. If this had been done the danger of developing an abscess area at the root end would have been eliminated. Pyorrhea was allowed to progress to the stage that successful treatment was impossible. This again suggests the desirability of periodic exam- ination and treatment." LADY HEATH FAILS IN RECORD ATTEMPT Mt, Clemens, Mich., April 11.-- When the 29 planes of the Toronto Flying club landed at Selfridge field here yesterday afternoon ror a "goodwill visit" they were add- ed to another distinguished group, which included Lady Heath, forced down at Selfridge after an unsuc- cesful attempt to break a speed record. Lady Heath, who took off from Ford airport, announced that a "balky metor' forced her to seek a landing place. When the famous aviatrix land- ed her Great' Lakes light plane the members of the army's crack ete | pursuit group swarmed out to meet Am=| yer, where patients | are suffering from nervous diseas- | She was immediately reeog- nized and invited to lunch, which invitation she accepted.

Deputy Minister of External Af- fairs O. D. Skelton stated that he gathered from press dispatches that the implication from the judg- ment was that Canadian-born citi- _|zéns would not require visas in or- der to commute to their work in A BROWN STUDY Brown is a more restful and tasteful colour, the car designers and interior decorators of the Canadian Pacific Railway have decided, so this will be the predominant note in the sumptuous new sleepers just built by the company's Angus shops at Montreal especially for service carpets and curtains will be a rich brown, and the wood finish a lustrous walnut.

Major L. a. Burwash of the Northwest Terri- tories Branch is spending the win- ter in the neighborhood of the pole on Boothia Peninsula and will con- duct a series of tests lasting into the summer. Details of the meas- urements are being transmijted to Ottawa by wireless from the steam- er Fort James which is wintering in that locality. The magnetic compass has long been recognized as inaccurate on account of the wandering propensi- ties of the magnetic pole. 'During the last few years mariners and aviators have turned to more mod- ern devices such as the gyroscopic sun and radio compasses, but the magnetic compass is still in wide use. Besides the recognized variation from the true north of nearly 50 degrees from coast to coast in Can- ada which the magnetic compasw shows, there is a further range of error from the fact that, the mag- netic pole moves each year approx- imately two-thirds of a mile. For seen to be altogether too small to explain the yearly change in direc- tion of the compass needle. Recent researches of the Topo- graphical Survey, Department ot the Interior, indicate that the year- ly change in direction is due to the action of magnetic forces within the earth, It has been felt that ad- ditional magn data in the Far North, especially in regard to the march of the north magnetic pole would afford additional informa- tion on this intricate question. How- ever, a special expedition and de- spatches for that sole purpose would have been expensive. 785 DIVORCES IN CANADA IN 1928 New High Record Estab- lished Bureau of Sta- tistics Shows Ottawa, April 11.--Divorces granted in Canada during 1928 numbered 785. This set a new rec- ord and was 37 higher than 1927. In a review published here by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics the increases in the past few years are attributed to the greater ease with which decrees are obtained and to a more lenient view of divorce pro- ceedings on the part of the com- munity. Divorces by provinces were as follows: Ontario 213, British Co- lumbia 203, Alberta 168, Manitoba 79, Saskatchewan 655, Nova Scotia 28, Quebec 25, New Brunswick 14, several years it marches to the west, then turns back and marches | east again. Thus at Fort Church- il the needle pointed 24 degrees west of north in the year 1700, one degree west in 1800, and 10 de- grees west in 1900. A knowledgé of this march of the needle is of great practical va- lue, for most of the original land surveys in the older provinces were made by compass and now-a-days when it is desired to retrace an old lost boundary line it is neces- sary to know the change in the needle direction that has occurred in the interval. Moreover such ine formation is necessary for the pur- pose of keeping up-to-date all the needle declination measurements made in the past and for correlat- ing surveys made by compass at uirferent dates. The practical value uf compass information in such a large country .8 Canada was well recognized by .he earliest explorers, for the de- Jlination was measured in the Gult ! ot St. Lawrence by Jacques Cartier ir 1543 and Samuel de Champlain .n 1604; in the interior by Sir John . ranklin in 1819; and on the Pa- ific by Sir Francis Drake in 1679, ~apt. Cook in 1778 and Capt. Van- couver in 1792, Since 1880, the Topographical survey, Department of the Interior, uttawa, has been making measure- ments of the declination and the annual change of the needle in con- junction with its other work. Such measurements may be taken by wue surveyor in a few minutes, at vory little additional expense when he a already on the ground with the nec- essary instruments. About. 25,000 such measurements have meen ob- tained to date. The Survey uae used these, together with the re- sults of the early explorers, the Meteorological Service of Canada, the Dominion Observatory; the Can- adian Hydrographic Service, -the Carnegie Institute of Washington and various provincial Governments and individuals, to compile and publish at intervals, maps of Can- ada showing the true direction of needle and tables showing the march of the needle or how it changes its direction from year wv year. 'While the reason for the needle pointing in different directions at each place is known to be due to the magnetic poles not coinciding with the geographical poles, the reason for the needle changing its direction from year to year has never received a satisfactory ex- planation. For many years the most popular theory was that such changes in the needle direction were caused by the magnetic poles marching around the geographical poles and such eminent physicists as Lord Kelvin and others comput- ed that it- took the magnetic poles 1,000 years to perform a complete march or journey around the geo- | graphical poles. But this theory had to be shandoned after Capt. Roald Amundsen found the north magnetic in 1903-6 to be within fifty miles of the place where it was first discovered by Sir James Ross in 1831. In other words, the march of the magnetic poles was then / Ye Cl and Prince Edward Island none. The largest increases were 31 in Onta- rio and Alberta 20. The following provinces showed decreases as fol- lows: tia 1. has been only one divorce in Prince Edward Island. In 1928, 52 per cent of the di- vorces were granted on applica- tions of wives. This was approxi mately the same percentage as in| In New | the previous two years. Zealand during 1926, 61.4 per cent of successful applications were by wives, and in the United States 70.5 per cent. The. latest figures for divorces granted in United tSates courts tc persons married in Canada are for 1922. In that year, according to the United States Bureau of Cen- sus, there were 1,368 divorces, a number more than two and one- half times as large as the total granted in this country. Of the total 462 were granted in Michi- gan, 135 in the state of Washing- ton, and 128 in California, SEEK PROTECTION AGAINST FLOODS Toronto, April 11.--Appeals are being made to civic authorities for immediate protection from the flooding of low-lying land along the eagtern city lake-front as a re- sultof renewed floods yesterday. A strong east wind caused heavy waves to pile the water over the the United States, but that natural- ized Canadians would have to se- cure such visas under the quota laws affecting their native coun- tries. Until he had studied the text of the judgment, however, Dr. Skelton would not make any state- ment upon its significance for Can- ada. Remarkable Decision 'Washington, April 11--Students of international law and United States organized labor evinced dents who work in the ta restrictions of their lands. great interest recently in the re- markable Supreme Court decision placing foreign-born Canadian resi- United States under the immigration quo- native stipulations that are absolutély an- nulled by war." "It is true," the opinion com- mented, 'that citizens and subjects of the two countries continued af- ter the war of "1812, as before, freely to pass and repass the inter- national boundary line. And so they would have done if there had been a treaty on the subject . . . this policy sufficiently accounts for the acquiescence of the Govern- ment (United States) in the con~ tinued exercise of the crossing pri- vilege upon the part of the inhabi- tants of Canada; .. . + a pre sumption that such acquiescence recognized a revival of the treaty obligation cannot be indulged." It was held the 1921 Immigra~ tion Act in allowing visits of up to sir months, of aliens entering for business purposes, cannot possibly have meant to include "laborers." The decisions reversed a Circuit Court of Appeals decision and does not apply to native-born Canadi- ans, who are specifically exempted' from the quota limitations of the 1921 act. and increase your vigor | and vitality Sales Agents: Harold F.

The important feature to Unitea States Labor is that the decision upholds the attempt of the Labur Department and the American Fed- eration of Labor to shut out cheap alien laborers, including Chinese, who could get jobs in the United States after establishing a resi- long as six months, thereafter either returning or "losing them- selves" from United States immi- gration authorities. . The Supreme Court's unanimous decision, written by Justice Suther- land, based its invalidation of the Jay treaty provision on the follow- ing statement: " . . . treaties of amity, of allegiance, and the like, having political character, the ob- ject of which 'is to promote rela tions of harmony between nation and nation' are generally regarded as belonging to the class of treaty CUTICURA.
