The Wingham Advance Times, 1929-12-05, Page 5Thursday, December 5th, 1929 WINGHAM ADVANCE -TIMES HEALTH SERVICE' of The • t ANAL4AN MEDICAL ASSOC IATION • SIXTH YEAR MOLAR There is one tooth which is .the most important in securing a proper-• , ly ,developed jaw with regular teeth. • This tooth is the first permanent mob.' ar, and it is commonly called the Sik. 'th year molar. Its popiilar name is apt to be I misleading, however,- be- cause the tooth may appear earlier or later than the sixth year, It comes in just behind the temporary or baby teeth; indeed, it is often mistaken for one of the baby teeth, as such, it is neglected, the parent thinking that it will be replaced by a permanent tooth later on. 'This important tooth can be easily recognized, In the temporary set, there are ten teeth above and ten be- low, or, in other words, five on each side above and below. If Idere are more thanfive, then the sixth tooth which appears is this inose important first permanent Molar, which must be carefully guarded and preserved be- cause of its being the "keystone of the dental arch." The loss of the first permanent molars means that the jaw mill not be properly formed, the other teeth •-.will not be in' proper position, and, as a result, there will not be the per- , _feet mastication that there should be. The importance of the teeth as factors in health is generally known. A clean mouth means healthy teeth • and, gums. Dental disease is respon- sible for a great deal of •illness and suffering, It, is essential that parents and those responsible for children re- alize that, in order to have sound teeth in adult life, an early start must be made. :We refer here to this first ,.permanent molar which often apears in the fifth year and which fintst be preserved if the child is to have sound healthy teeth. This simply means that dental care cannot be postponed, but that it must begin early in life. Proper diet, cleanliness, regular vis- its to the dentist •are the basis of dental health. If these are begun early and persisted in, satisfactory re- sults will 1:le achieved, Questions, concerning Health, ad- dressed to the Canadian Medical As- sociation, 184 College Street, Toron- to, will be answered personally by letter. Here and Therle t342) An Indian grave, discovered by accident by Canadian Pacific em- ployees at work near Brooks, Al- berta, last May, is considered by . • 'eiperts to be between 30Q and 400 years old. It is thought the grave Was originally above ground but the passage of centuries had buried the graVe below th'e Soil. in trill ration ditch Was being constructed when -the grave was discovered. • 'I'd -motored airplanes are' being launched in one of the most spec- taeular fights in the history of aviation, War has been decla,red by the Canadian Government on the spruce bud worm and the airplane is to'be the principal arm of the service. •Planes each carry 1,600 pounds of powder, and will dust it while flying low, over the tree tops. The blueberry industry is ehow- ing much improvement in Yar- mouth and Shelburne COW] ties, Nova Scotia. Last year there were only 4,000 acres of crown land burned for blueberry growing; this year 10,00,Q acresk have been burn- ed, of crop last year was $(15,000 and it is estimated that the crop s value could be increased to half a million dollars. The province of Alberta has' adopted Old Age Pensions, the funds for which are provided by eo-operation between the federal •and provincial governments, •'The scheme has 110W been adopted by all Canadian provinces from the Quebec boundary westward. Though crops in several parts of Western Canada would be benefit- ted by rains, crop outlook on the whole is very promising. Reports from all parts of Saskatchewan are generally encouraging, The Al- berta report. is good, especially the Peace River country where present prospects indicate one of the best crops on record. About 25,000,000 acres are sown to wheat in Canada this year. Last year the Domin-' ion harvested over 533,000,000 bush- els of wheat, the largest crop in the country's history. The fourth annual midsummer gathering of the Swedish-Oanadian League held a two-day convention at Lac du Binet, Manitoba, re- cently and decided to build a home for Old Swedish folks at Winnipeg. Another feature of the gathering was a pageant of old Swedish folk - dancing and songs presented in old- time costumes. Many of the danc- ers were the same who appeared at the Regina festival held earlier in the year at the Saskatchewan hotel in that city. A list of extraordinary accidents has recently been published occur- ring to motorists at level crossings and included the following: -One driver parked car on tracks and went to sleep. 44 motorists dray., into the sides of moving trnins, drove into the sides of sta-cl'ne trains.

Fortunately most of the Christmas good things are int- proVecl by keeping and should be made some time ahead, When possible the children should have some share in getting things ready, It will not be work to them but fun for it adds to their pleasure and gives happy memories to store. The older we get the more we real- ize the importance of giving our children precious memories. When I was very young the apples for the mince -meat had to be chopp- ed with a chopper in a wooden bowl that identical chopping -bowl is do- ing duty at the present time in my garden as a bird -bath). Then the raisins had to be stoned, to facilitate this they were soaked in warm water. I can feel the moisture from the rais- ins trickling gently down my arms and taste the sweetness of the moist sticky fruit,_ To help with these was an event which was looked forward from one year to the next. The children can put apples through the meat -grinder and will have lots of excitement catching the apple juice which will leak through the grinder! 'They do not need to stone the raisins these days but they can separate them ready to flour, They certainly can stone the dates and chop the nuts. Work? No! Fun? Yesl Most of us have our favorite Xthas recipes Which we make year after year, but for those ' who want a change I am giving some which are tried and true having been made again, and again. Christmas Cake 2 lbs. raisins 1 Ib. Sultana raisins 2 lbs. currants 1 Ib mixed peel 1 Ib. figs 1 lb. sugar 1 lb. butter 1 doz. eggs 1 cup corn syrup 1 teaspoon soda 1 cup brandy or fruit juice • 1 lb. flour 1 lb. almonds Prepare the fruit and dredge it with some of the flour. Cream the butter and .sugar and add the well.: beaten eggs. When the sugar is pretty well dissolved add the syrup and fruit juice. Sift in the flour, Wet, SU»per Pavements call for special tare TREchances for motor accidents multiply greatly on pavements which are wet or covered with snow or ice. Even when equipped with chains, an automobile • will not stop in so slim a distance as on a dry pavement., Motorists and pedestrians should keep this fact in mind. Too abrupt application • of brakes is the cause of much skidding. Disengaging the clutch at the same time • emphasizes the tendency to skid, and also detaches the most efficient brake on the automobile, viz., the engine itself. In braking on a skiddy pavement close the throttle, take the foot off the accelerator, leave the clutch engaged so that the engine helps the braking process, and apply the brakes GRADUALLY. Above everything else don't lock the wheels of your vehicle by suddenly clamping down the brakes. Just before the vehicle is brought to a stop, the clutch should be disengaged. On slippery pavements that are free from traffic, practice this method of controlling your automobile. The skill you acquire may prevent an accident and perhaps save a life. • Remember, too, that your brake bands pick up moisture from the pavement ill wet weather. A wet brake" is not so efficient as a dry one. • Driving in fall and winter has its dangers both in city and country. By schooling • yourself in handling your machine on wet or slippery pavements, your driving • will be ,safer for yourself and for other drivers. 'Remember your automobile is a machine. It does just what you make it do. • Care, Conrtesy, and Common Sense -on the highways at all times -but particularly now when new dangers,are present. 9 raiON. GEO. S.

Suggestion for Baking Baking the Christmas cake is the trickiest part of the whole Procedure, _ It ,has to bake for such a long time titt it is very apt to burn. Lining the pan with at least 2 layers of heavy wrapping paper is a help. Cut the paper wide enough so that it will fold over at the top of the pan and prevent the top of the, cake from getting too much heat, Keep your oven at a uniformly slow tempera- ture, If you are unfortunate enough to scorch your cake a little, the burn- ed portion may be removed by rub- bing gently with a grater. Many women prefer to steam their fruit cakes for 2 hours and then to bake them an hour in a moderate oven to dry them off. This gives a moist cake and there is little danger of burning. Those who use a rack in their boilers for canning have an ideal steaming outfit. Almond Paste 1 lb. almonds. 2 eggs. 1 lb. icing sugar. 1 teaspoon vanilla. 1 teaspoon rose water or almond essence. ,Put the almonds through the food chopper. Add the sugar and cook ov- er a gentle heat until warmed through Add the eggs and cook just a mom- ent longer. Turn out op a board and kneed until smooth. Roll out and fit on to cake. Pat over with a wet knife to smooth. Uncooked Icing ‘1. unbeaten egg white. 11 cups icing sugar. 1 teaspoon vanilla or almond ex- tract. Put the unbeaten egg white in a shallow dish and add sugar gradually, beating with a Wire beater or fork it is the right consistency to spread. Scotch Cake or Shortbread 1 ib. flour. 2 lbs. butter. lb. brown sugar. Cream the butter, add the sugar and beat until a very fine texture and cream in color. Add sifted flour and mix- thoroughly. Do no add all the flour at once. Turn on a floured board and knead until smooth, work- ing in as much flour as possible. Mould into desired shape and prick with a fork. Bake in a moderate ov- en. It will be found easier to bake it successfully if the pan is inverted and it is baked on the outside of the pan. Plum Rudding. • 1 pint bread crumbs (put chopper). 1 cup sugar. 1 cup raisins. 1 cup currants. 1 ib. suet. 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, 1/1b, mixed peel. Juice and rind of 1 lemon, 1 cup flour. 1 cup syrup. 3 eggs. teaspoon soda dissolved in 1 tablespoon of hot water. Mix dry ingredients, add fruit and suet. Moisten with beaten eggs and syrup and lemon juice. Add soda last. Steam 3 hours. through Children Almost Hate Cross, Nervous Mother "My children almost hated me, I was so cross.
