Dixon, Wil- Dental Disease Causes 10 Per Cent Selectee Rejection The high prevalence of faulty dental conditions • among draftees when they report for physical ex aminations is cited by Dr. George W. Cox, State Health Officer, as emphasizing the need for early and regular dental care for children— both at home and under profess ional supervision. Doctor Cox stated that dental disease has resulted in the rejec tion of as high as ten per cent of draftees for regular military ser vice. He attributed these dental defects to the failure of the draf tees to avail themselves of dental care—even when properly advised —during childhood. Another prob able factor was the period of ec onomic depression during which a great deal of needed preventive dental service was allowed to go unattended. “When the majority of draftees were of elementery school age HEADQUARTERS R.O.T.C.

"Just nod your answers, Mr. Ketchum, you may as well get used to keeping quiet." there was little or no development of the present-day dental schools health programs. These programs, still not as universal as they should be, aim at the double goal of educating the child from his family dentist or through school dental clinics. By the first of these two aims it is hoped that children will be led to continue regular den tal care in their later years. “Had the draftees received the initial care that results from this school program, the ill effects of the depression period would prob ably not have been so markedly reflected in the present day con dition of their teeth. Every den tal defect that results in the loss of a tooth had a small beginning-. Had these and subsequent defects been noted early and corrected, the number of necessarily extracted teeth would not have been materi ally reduced, with, in turn, reduc tion of the number of draft re jections because of dental defects. “There is no cure for dental de cay, once it is started, other than prompt corrective service by a dentist. It is believed that the efforts now being made to ac custom the children to early and regular dental care will prevent the development of conditions similar to those that are now in fluencing the rejection of our adult draftees. If it does this, it will also result in the improved health of our adult population whether or not a national emer gency is faced. “And good teeth in healthy bod ies are as essential in normal as in emergency times.” RS Seniors to Attend State Welfare Meet Twelve seniors majoring in rural sociology will leave for Dal las Tuesday afternoon to attend the State Welfare Association Convention being held Wednesday through Saturday.
