It was the duty of the | school to see that the bodiés of the | children developed so that they would be in a position to carry on | their life's work with character and strength, The children should not be neglected physically. ' The estab- lishment of a dental service would mean much to their physical develop: ment. The speaker spoke of the great need for the care of the mouth. We should be very careful about cleanliness. We were very careful about our food, yet we would allow food to pass through a filthy mouth, and this was detrimental to health; it could not be otherwise. It was most essential that this should re- ceive careful attention. Dr. Conboy stated that many dis- oases contracted by adults had their | origin in childhood. Not one child in ten knew how to mabRticate his |B food. We should put first things first fn connection with the care of our boys and girls. Children should be taught healthy habits. Money ex- pended in this work would be well expended. If proper preventative methods were followed in every part of Ontario, we would immediately have a reduction of from ten to twenty per cent. in * eases of casual iliness, "One objection rafeed to the den- tal service was that our fathers did not Have this service, and they got along all right," added the speaker. "Some regard it as & fad or a frill, We must remember that our parents aid the best they could fort us. They were the people who made the real sacrifices, If they had the knowl- edgd we have now, they would have been able to have made a still great er contribution." The speaker stated that the mat- ter was one that should conéern every. citizen. The expense incurred would be an investment which would bring handsome returns, Dr. Conboy referred to other cities having a full time and half time of- ficer, and in these places the people were well satisfied: In Toronto there was a system that was doing splendid service, and last year the mayor stat- ed that he would not think of cut- ting it off. Under an act passed in July, 1934, the Board of Bdueation had the power to establish a dental service. He declared it was not a fad or frill but something the city needed. Following his address, Dr. Conboy answered many. questions presented by the dentists in attendance, and also members of the Board, and there wae quite a general discussion. On motion of Mrs. Revelle, seconded by Mrs. Newlands, the speaker was tendered a hearty vote of thanks. Dr. C. C. Nash told about {he sur- vey he made of the city a few years ago, Df.
