As promised in the last column, here are a few suggestions for the in-home oral hygiene techniques that may be helpful in caring for a retarded child's needs. It goes without saying, that patience, slow and deliberate movements and avoiding frightening the youngster are very important when accomplishing brushing, flossing and rinsing, especially if there is any degree of learning capability. Holding the brush properly can be difficult, and you may find that bending the handle permanently, to make the brush end point in, will prove helpful. (Hold plastic handle under hot water to make it pliable.) If the handle is too difficult for the child to hold, enlarge it by placing a bicycle handle grip or something similar on it, building up tne toothbrush handle with tape to fill the space underneath. Anything like this that makes the chore seem like fun can meet with good reaction and promote cooperation. Try to follow the same pattern of procedure every time thereby putting the child at ease. Flossing after brushing is not easy to do properly for a normal child, so you will want to accomplish this for the retarded youngster yourself until he has had a great deal of experience in seeing how it is done. Explain the how and why of flossing each time you do it even though, at first, you may not feel the explanation is getting through. Exercise extreme caution in flossing, to avoid cutting the gums, causing bleeding and discomfort; avoid anything like this that could cause fear of what you are doing. Demonstrate rinsing and assist. If your child gags, use extra caution. If rinsing cannot be done without the child swallowing the toothpaste-laden water, brush only with water, and later apply a bit of fluoride toothpaste yourself with a brush, allowing the small amount to remain in the mouth. If the child is subject to involuntary movements, and there seems to be no possibility of learning a simple oral cleansing procedure, it is well to have someone else assist you. It will make the job much easier. Yes, your patience will be strained. Yes, there will be days when you'll wonder whether it’s all worth the effort. The important thing to remember is . . you are helping to prevent the possibility of dental disease and future dental expense by adhering firmly to your regimen.

It measured, according to an account of the Elk’s meeting, five inches long and four inches in circumference. The former local resident also told of his buffalo hunting days and passed along a story told before his time of enormous herds that all but covered the plains. THESE HERDS HAD BEEN so large, according to what he heard, that a procession of buffalo a mile wide took 24 hours to pass a given point. “I reckon that the whole herd would cover the state of Connecticut and flow over into the state of New York,” he told
