Service Job at Legion Hospital Open; Examination Scheduled With the approach of another school year. Miss AuVcrnc Ware.

Kerr County health nurse, in a statement issued Wednesday called attention t-j the importance of den- health in children of school age. Miss Ware's statement follows: "By being ready for school, we he free from remedial defects? Such as cavities in the "Decayed teeth are menaces to health not only because they do (heir work badly, but also because they are centers from which infec- ti-in may bo carried to other parls of the body. "Good teeth can be planned. To be strong and sound and beautiful, they must be built and cared for according to certain specifications. Nature docs the building, but we must provide the materials and arrange for the proper upkeep.

"Strong, even teeth in a healthy mouth must depend largely upon good general health, upon foods which give the teeth the nourishment and exercise they need, upon skilled dental care, and upon cleanliness. Heredity and other influences, as yet unknown, may affect the teeth. "It's an old, old story to every teacher that a poor student may become one of the best students in the room when his teeth are repaired. How can a mind be alert and 1 stick to lessons when Ihc body is being poisoned constantly by infections? "Decayed teeth may become so sore that the child docs not chew his food properly. Instead, he swallows it almost whole.

This is one of the common causes of indigestion in children. It makes a child irritable and cross. He cannot keep up in school, nor enjoy his play.

Stewart Savage and his two Galen and Francis, who operate the century old Pitchfork Ranch in Matagorda County, are among the principal workers for the recognition of "Brafords" as a distinct breed. They run six herds of Herefords and Brahmas on the ranch, keeping records on each animal. When the Braford breed is recognized, records on the Hereford side will extend hundreds of years back into the history of lhal breed, lo the highlands of England. The history of the breeding of Brahmas will go back lo Ihe dawn of history. Indian priests, in cases, have records of their sacred cattle as old as civilization.

Visitors from Eastern stales are puzzled by what they call "humpbacked cows" in thc Gulf Coast re- periments of the Savages, the King Ranch, and the R. S. Coon ranch at Dalhart. Coon and the Savages crossed Brahmas and Herefords lo produce Ihc Braford. The King Ranch crossed Brahmas and English shorthorns lo produce Ihe Santa Gertrudis.

Savage and his sons breed prize- winning Brafords that weigh 100 to 155 pounds more lhan olhcr breeds as yearlings. They handle Ihe Brah- mas easily, never exciling Ihem, and cattlemen who have noticed how wild rodeo Brahmas are, arc amazed to learn that the cattle, when handled gently, are quet and docile. "We believe Ihc Brafords are the coming beef catlle of the century," Francis Savage asserts. Spinach Yields A New Vitamin Navy Will Launch Recruiting Drive LEGAL NOTICE new and important vitamin, which may prove to be one of the essentials of normal development of (he tissues in th But back of the introduction or these cattle to Texas lies one of the strangest stories in the livestock industry. It is a story of a SCG.OflO expedition lo the Far Easl and a dangerous trek across hot, cholera-infested India, where Hindu religionists regard Brahmas with fanatical attachment.

Abel i Shanghai) Pierce, sailor, plantation owner, and fancier of fine horses, is thc first breeder in the story of Brahma cattle in thc United Slales. He boughl two of the exotic beasts from a bankrupt carnival in Richmond, Texas, one day and took Ihem home. He was amazed lo sec Ihe Brahmas slanding in Ihe holiest sun, sweating like a horse, while olher callle sought the shade. He knew that ordi do not sweat, and that they the heat more than other do. Moreover, he observed that the Brahmas were utterly impervious to the flies and ticks that attacked' his other animals.

Acclimated such while callle grew Ihin. Envisioning vvhal more Brahma blood could do for Ihe callle industry, Shanghai set aboul acquiring some of Ihe finest Brahmas in India. Sanitation laws importation of cattle inlo'lhe Slates al lhal time prevented Brah- as scientists. The vitamin, known as "folic acid" was discovered recently by Dr. Roger J.

Williams. Dr. Esmond E. Sncil and Hershell K. Mitchell and announced by thc American Chemical Society.

When purified, the scientists believe thc acid will prove valuable in medicine. It is known to play a fundamental part in the life processes of plants, animals and human beings. The name "folic" derived trom thc Latin word "folium" meaning "green leaf," was chosen after the acid was developed from four tons of spinach. It is described by scientists to rank in importance wilh panlolhenic acid, so-called "acid of life," which Dr. Williams discovered.

Dr. Williams came to the tini- versily in 1939 from Ihe University of Oregon, bringing with him his Iwo co-workers lo collaborate on Ihe experiments which are conducted in a specially designed laboratory built for him by the university. The scientisl was named 1941-42 research professor by Ihe board of regenls lasl April. His work was endowed in October, 1940, with a $45,000 grant from the Clayton Foundation of Houston, and later the same year won the $1,000 Mead Johnson Company award for oulslanding work on Vitamin complex.
