When Minneapolis butchers advertised 10.000 pounds of Buffalo meat for sale, a .squad of policemen was necessary to handle the crowds. The meat was rold without the benefit of Ol’A fellings and went as high as 31.75 per pound, indicating what might be expected if controls were lifted. o— —o There were fifteen deaths over last weekend as the result of automobile accidents on the highways of Indiana.

By Harman N. Bundeaen. M. D MANY people have the idea that the probh-m of getting and keeping good teeth has been entirely aolved, but thin Ik by no meant* true. We do know alM>nt certain thing* that may help in preventing tooth decay and we realize the importance of a well balanced diet for the mother-to-be In order to help assuro that her child will have strong teeth. Rut once the teeth have formed, the use of a well-balanced diet, containing plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables and even large doses of vitamins, will not keep tooth decay from occurring. When Enamel Breaks Down Tooth decay results from a breaking down of the enamel covering of the teeth. Once this has happened, the process apparently Is not influenced In any way by the nature of the foods which a person digests, or by any of the substances .taken up by tho blcxxi from the intestine'-. Recent studies have disproved the idea that carles, or tooth decay, can either be produced «r prevented by changing the kind of foods. vitamin* or inlnerils a person gets.

With tho election less than •1 three weeks away any decision by t President Truman on the meat x question would he laade an Issue by the politicians We believe Mr

Truman, who knows the problem better than any one person In >' America Is doing what he believes * is best for the greatest number of people. It takes courage and ability to serve the public these , days. i o—o— — Former Governor Townsend will speak in Decatur the evening of the 23rd. a county rally that the ► Democratic leaders hopo will meet res|M>nse by a large attendance of i I the voters. Mr. Townsend is quail fieri, is honest, knows the pro hlems of the farmer, laborer and business man and should be sent- ( to Washington as one of Indiana's representatives in the highest law making body In the world. i o- 0 r Two weeks from next Tuesday is election day when we will be privileged to choose those public servants whom we feel will serve best. It's an imjiortant duty and one you should give consideration. The Democratic party tn Adum. county offers you able and efficient candidates .Many of them have records of public service and all of them are qualified for the places they seek. Your supimrt will be appreciated. i I _ i I Girls, hurry! The world's richt est man. or at least the man who ■ is likely to become so. is 4l)-years I old and a bachelor. He is Dr. J. i T. Williamson, a Canadian by birth. 1 ■ now living in Tanganyika in East Africa. On his property has been found a diamond deposit eight . times larger than the biggest mine , known heretofore, in the past year, though the surface of the deposit - was reportoriy only scratched. more than *M.OOO.f*OO worth of diamonds wore found. Now the true extent of the lode has been revealed. | o o This is National Business Women's Week, a tribute to the National Federation of Business and Professional Women’s clubs. The women of America have taken , their place In the business and professional world, havo helped in numerous ways during the past decade and will so continue. The Decatur organisation plans to take part in civic affairs and have adopted the national slogan: “To I help in any way possible for jobs. Justice and peace.** It's a worthy group working for the good of this community and eager to do i their full share to accomplish their I goal.

existing tooth decay nor can vitamin C either control or stop carle*. Even though children, during the last 20 years, have taken vitamin b to a greater extent than ever before, there has been no appreciable decrease in the amount of carle* Most investigators agree on one point about tooth decay. If people eat excessive amounts of starchy foods and sugar which ferment in the mouth, ft is likely that the progress of tooth decay will Im speeded up. On the other hand, reducing the amount of these foods may tend to reduce or even to stop the progress of tooth ecay. Visit the Dentist What then, are the things which can be done in order to keep the teeth strong and sound? First of all. make regular visits to the dentist. He can discover decay when It first starts and. by filling the decayed spot, can keep the condition from progressing. He can also make sure that t*<- teeth meet evenly so that unusual pressure is not put on certain of the teeth. Keeping the teeth clean will not necessarily prevent tooth decay, but regular brushing may be helje. fill.
