February 2i, iM5 THE DAVENPORT DEMOCRAT AND LEADER February 21, 1945 On The Air Tonight Sally's Sallies JIMMY FIDLER Hollywood THE PATH TO HEALTH By Dr. Herman N. Bundesen Picsident ChicaKo Board of Health 7:30 O'CLOCK. it' VI 1 i and vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, whole-grain cereals, butter and some source of vitamin such as cod-liver oil, viosterol, or similar substances. There is no special diet for dental health other than this ordinary well-balanced one.

During the period of most rapid growth, that is, during infancy and childhood, it is especially important that milk be given in sufficient amounts because it is the best known source of calcium or lime, which is needed for building bones and teeth. But the calcium will not be 'used by the body unless vitamin is also present. If a person eats enough of the right kind of foods and there is no interference with their absorption and use by the body, it is not necessary to take additional vitamins. The best way to get the vitamins is by eating the proper foods. However, the physician will decide just when additional vitamins are needed and will prescribe the proper ones in the right amounts.

In recent years, another fact about tooth decay has been found: That there is some relation between the eating of sweets, excessive amounts of starches and sugars, and the occurrence of tooth decay. The decay of the teeth results from the action of acid which is produced by germs which live in the mouth and grow on bits of sweet or starchy foods which stick to the teeth. Hence, it is important that if candy or sweet, sticky foods are eaten, the teeth be thoroly brushed after eating, to get rid of any of these foods which may have clung to the teeth. It is thought that if the diet is limited in sugars and starches it may be possible to control, if not completely prevent, the tooth decay. In persons having a great deal of tooth decay, it may be a good plan to substitute fresh fruits for sweets.

The exact causes of tooth decay have not been determined, but it would appear that there is a great deal known about the process. For example, the use of a well-balanced diet early in life and later on, together with the avoidance of excessive amounts of sweets and starches, may do a great deal to limit damage to the teeth. Tooth and mouth cleanliness is helpful. (Dr. Bundesen will answer letters containing medical questions only thru his column.) fopf Kinp l-ffuffsj nHn'H, nc W'nrlH "fit rrrii "George said he married me because I was different from other women he knew.

It is also a fact, however, that proper diet, used by the a y-if DR. BUNDESEN expectant mother, aids in assuring that the child's teeth will be well-formed end resistant to decay thruout life. Furthermore, during early life, giving the baby and older child the proper food may be a factor in lessening the amount of tooth decay. A good, balanced diet means one that has plenty of milk, fruits The Stars Say For Wednesday, Feb. 21.

By GENEVIEVE KEMBLE. The planetary configurations indicate a most propitious time for a concentration of the forces and available resources, to po after, with skill and well laid plans, cherished desires or advanced goals. In this, the substantial support and co-operation of influential persons, superiors, or employers are essential, while all such objectives must be pushed to satisfactory conclusions on a basis of worth and sound constructive techniques. Carelessly prepared propositions may be factors for failure or lost prestige. IF IT IS VOU It BIRTHDAY.

Those whose birthday it is are assured of a year in which well developed plans, carefully organized and detailed, may be presented to those whose co-operation and interest are vital to ambitious projects. Genuine talents, skills, concentrated assets and resources should achieve such favors, when reckless or half-baked propositions would invite failure and lost opportunity. New agreements and contracts, cleverly engineered, should lead to real profit and gratification, altho some change of travel may be entailed. A child born on this day will be very clever, versatile, talented, and will attract substantial cooperation from those in high places. Some discipline as to thrift should be helpful in early life.

CHINESE TO LEARN FLIGHT FOR PEACE Kansas City. (AP) Thirteen Chinese handpicked by Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek have arrived here from Chungking to learn how to build and operate a commercial transport airline for peacetime in their native country. After learning to speak English, they will become regular employes of Transcontinental Si Western Air, working in administrative offices, maintenance, operations, traffic and engineering departments.

Because Ingrid Jerjrman has announced her ln-Irntion of filing for American rilirenship, I think it's only fair 1o let John nnd Jane Public know lhin.es about her i i tics that t-he has been exceedingly anxious to cover up. After a 1 1, we Americans are entitled to know much as possible about those who apply f'T membership in 'A 0 'V JIMMY F1DMR our society.

As secretly as risible, Miss Bergman an alien, whose native land is not at war has eon-Iributed seven times to the Red Cross Blood Bank, and has vorked overtime enlisting other contributions. While urging her publicity men to soft-pedal her actions, she has visited the most desolate Army posts in Alaska, snd has made several crosscountry tours to promote the sale of War Bonds. She has also, with nhe same effort to avoid publicity, sold War Bonds in Canada. Again in such secrecy that it's riot known to more than a handful of people, she personally went chopping last September end bought Christmas presents for many of the men overseas who had written her letters. She mailed these with intimate little notes signed ''Your friend, Ingrid Bergman." Yes.

I think such things should be told, whether Miss Bergman it or not. There have been other foreign stars who have taken an opposite course 50 persistently that we Americans might be excused for cherishing certain prejudices.

Silly notion: Wallace Beery dancing a rumba.

Several weeks ago, Chester Morris, who is really tops as nn amateur magician, did his tricks for service men st Camp Roberts. During the course of his act, lie produced the usual rabbit from the usual hat. The bunny, left unguarded for a split second, escaped and couldn't be found before Morris departure. The other day Chester received a crate from Camp Roberts. In it was the truant rabbit and 23 little ones.

Also, a note which read: "We liked your act, but we think you'll agree that your assistant has proven herself 23 times as good a magician as her master! Memories That Bless and Burn: When the marriage of Charles Earrell and Virginia Valli precipitated an avalanche of indignant letters from fans who felt betrayed because he didn't wed his screen love, Janet Gaynor. When British-born Boris Karloff, who hadn't visited England in years, cried like a baby on seeing the exact replica of Trafalgar Square constructed for the picture ''Cavalcade" When nasil Rathbone, crushed by the venomous letters he received after abusing Freddie Bartholomew in "David Copper-field," vowed he would never again play a role in which he would have to be cruel to children. I don't like to pick on Hollywood publicists as a class, for they are generally smart, hard workers who deserve better treatment than the industry gives them. But I can't muffle a chuckle when they allow enthusiasm to undermine logic. For instance, I have on my desk a broadside from Paramount which assures me that Alan Ladd carries on "regular personal correspondence" with 375 overseas service men.

I'm not a suspicious man, but I can't help believing that figure must be exaggerated. If Ladd writes each man one letter a month, and averages no more than 15 minutes per letter, his press agent is crediting him with 77 working hours every four weeks! Behind James Dunn's sunny smile is hidden the most active worry-complex in Hollywood. I don't think I've ever met him when he couldn't conjure up something to view with alarm. In particular, I remember a morning years ago, when he was at the peak of his success, I found him on a set, buried in gloom, and I asked what was bothering him. He said his career was slipping, that the studio would undoubtedly refuse to renew his contract.

"Has the boss been making nasty cracks?" 1 asked. "No," he admitted, "but I don't like the way he said hello this (Distributed by the McNaught Syndicate, Inc.)
