Long ago he told me he loved me and I feel the fame way about him and told him so. He works nights and because of that we can only see each other on Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons, but every night he telephones me. At first I thought this was wonderful and I'm still thrilled to talk to him, even on the 'phone, but my family laughs and all of them think he is Just checking up on me. One night I purposely wasn't home at the time he called and when my sister answered she told him I had gone to a movie.

The next day he railed me again. He was upset and wanted to know where I had been and who I had been out with and thinRs like that. I know he is the jealous type but I used to think he was telephoning me because of his love for me and because he wanted to talk to me. Now I don't know. I can't help wondering if maybe he i.s only checking up on me.

Do you think I should be absent from home a few nights when he telephones to tee what his reaction will be? A GIRL FRIEND. How the Jury Voted Women Yes, two; no, one Men Yes; none; no, three.

Scientific investigation of the cleansing effect of chewing, nude by Holmes T. Knighton, D.DS. (Jour.

A. D. '42, led Dr. Knighton to conclude that the chewing of apples, sliced oranges and paraffin aided the natural cleansing mechanism more than any other substances tested. Dr.

Knighton found that even careful brushing of the teeth with a toothpaste was less cleansing in effect than chewing an apple, for instance. Of course, wash the apple with soap and water first. I refrain from saying an apple a day keeps the dentist away, but I do honestly believe It would materially reduce the repair work dentists have to do If everybody ate an apple a day last thing at night.

Mr. and Mrs. Malcolm Davis of Onee again the Christmas season is here and with it comes the opportunity to get all those swell pictures of the children and the folks, and the Christmas tree, decorated in all its glory for the holiday. The facial expressions of the children when they open up their presents is something that your camera should not mbs. If you cannot shoot flash, due to your inability to get flash bulbs or synchronizers, have at least two flood bulbs In efficient reflectors all set up when the children come down to open their gifts cn Christmas morning, When taking pictures to include the tree as a background use a No.

2 bulb, as close to the tree as possible, so as to bring out the highlights of the glittering ornaments. Also backlight the tree with another flood light, so that that portion of the picture won't go completely dead on you. If you are fortunate enough to shoot flash, use one No. 40 bulb to the side and a little above the camera, as a main light, and a small Midcct, or No. 25.

on the camera, to fill in the shadows. This is aL-o a golden opportunity for the color enthusiasts to get some excellent pictures that will be flooded with all the colors of the rainbow. About twice as much light is needed for color as for black and white, and the lighting should be flat, but balanced. Don't forget, when you take your light meter readings, to try to obtain a balance between the dark green of the tree and the brilliant colors of the decorations. With a reasonable amount of care you will have pictures that will bring back pleasant memories in the years to come.

-When a fellow calls a girl every night, well, he's sot it bad. Dr. Brady says: Due to prejudice and ignorance, hich prevails among the people in the Southwest, as well as elsewhere, a great many persons living In the Southwest fail to get as much sunlight on naked skin as they might easily enjoy, but on the average it ls probable that people in the Southwest absorb more ultraviolet than do people in any other part of the country, simply because more is available more of the time and exposure is more comfortable more of the time. The invisible ultraviolet rays of direct sunshine or indirect skythine convert a substance in the skin called ergosterol into viosterol, which is vitamin D. This sunlight-generated vitamin is then carried in the circulation to every part of the body where it may be needed.

A supply of vitamin essential for the normal assimilation and utilization of calcium and phosphorus. Normal assimilation and utilization of calcium and phosphorus is a fundamental lactor in the development, growth and health of the teeth and in the prevention of caries or decay of teeth. IX this alone does not account for the better teeth of school children in the Southwest, another factor may have something to do with it: I believe people living In the Southwest get more exercise- of teeth, gums and' jaws than do people ekewhefe. simply because more fresh vegetables and fresh fruits are available more of the time in the Southwest, and these foods require more chewing than do refined, preserved foods. from the ettect of regular exercise of the teeth, gums and jaws in chewing tijjon the nutrition of teeth, gums, Jaws, palate, face and on the development, functional efficiency and physical beauty of teeth, THESE WOMEN!
