DENTAL SERVICE
IN-LUCKNOW •
The following article written by
• Dr: W. V. .Johnston appeared in
the February issue of the Can-
adian School Journal.
W. V. Johnson, B.A., M.D:, M.O.H.
The number of public .school chil-
dren in the village of Lucknow flue
tu'ates° between 140 and ,150. in 1940
these children were given a fairly
complete physicalexamination :by
two doctors and the two local dent-
ists. One of the interesting findinga.
was that only 19 . per cent of the
children had healthy mouths. In the
remaining 81 per cent there was .an
average of 2,9 diseased teeth.
This investigation had been 'done
by the Local', Board of, Health and
this Board then recommended to the
School Board that a complete den-,
tal service ,be attempted. ,By, com-.
ptete we mean that it, include all
types of dental work , except surg-
ery, and also, that ail the children
?erne under the scheme regardless,
of, whether or not their parents
were .able to .pay for it.; '
. The dentists estimated , ` that it
would take about 180 hours work.
At the.. usual- rate of: pay of $8:00 -
Der three hours work they conclud-
ed' that it. would . cost about $480.00.
The school'.Board accepted'this fig-
ure.
- In order to start the ;scheme a
parent or guardian of eachchild was
sent a card showi}tg what dental,
work would: be done, and: •asking
if. they wished this service for their
"F; fl 'ti E if Se, Ali state theirs -pre=
fr'rence of •dentist. Only one fam-
ilypreferred to` pay fortheir own
rervice. • '..
In the second year of operation,
that is 1941, the dentists found that
the number of healthy 'mouths, had.
increased to $4.3: per• cent` and that
'n the remaining 65..7 per cent there
•was an average of only '1.05 diseased
teeth' per mouth. Moreover, in 1940
it -required -1-88 hours- to --do the work:
required, and • in. 1941 only 801/2 '
hours were necessary. . Of the new
rnupils, entering, in September 1941
it was found that 80.8 per cent' re -
mired dentalattention and • ,that.
these :children had an average of
3.1 diseased' teeth. These figures
are almost exactly the same' for' all,
the childr• ert at the start of • the
v'h.eme in 1940:. '
Let • us consider .the cost to the
•atepayers. In 1940 the dentists were
easel $480.00. The Provincial Dental
grant received was $144,00: Thus the
cost per pupil was , about $3.20. In

the second year• of operatiern• the,
cost per pupil had dropped to about
$1.50.. We consider. that it.. costs u5.

not anticipate that these figures•
will••change. very much -.in. the....fut-_

Frorn the figures given it 'can be
teen that the results have been,very

dition of the .mouths ef'• the • child-.

A. weird should. be said as to'. the
'ielp given the Board'of Health. The

nn . hesitation whatever when the
scheme was outlined to them:: One

member stated that , if we did not

PACIFIC COAST •

By -Hugh MacMillan
Duck on the Rock
In ' thinking ' Q. the Pacific Coast
these days it is hard to forget that
"the Coast" is that part of Canada
nearest to Pearl Harbor. Pearl //ar-
bor has become like a new name for
the.' Hawaiian Islands. 'The Islands
are like a rock in the centre. of the
Pacific pond. where Occident and
Orient have recently begun' to play
an old, rough and ready game re-
senibling.i "Duck on the Rock". The
States • set . up . the "duck" in ' the
form of her • "invincible'° navy and.
dared • the 'Japanese to come. and
knock it off. The dare was accepted.
They 'came 'early one -Sunday Morn
ing ,last December, threw . their . mis-
sies and off went ,.the duck. Now .a.
lot :,of 'da hiig around has begun,
with much less talk of invincibility
than before,' trying to get ' the, duck
put back -on again: .

Thinking in Terms of Centuries
Pacific Coast people in Canada
do not yet seem • to realize .the rough-
ness, nor the seriousness of • this
game. There is still a tendency just
