D. L. on. ungt Satisfied John sR Hoffpan-i The; Teeth. By J.

S. D. p. S. Take Care of Your Teeth.

Decay of the teeth is not a dis- ease which has its origin in modern- methods of -living, for toothache, with its pangs, dates back as far as history can be traced, and never the human race suffered so universally from any other malady as it has from dental Until recently the real cause of tooth decay was' not known. Many theories were advanced, but none permanently accepted until Dr. Miller pf Berlin, after many through and exhaustive re searches, made the announce ment that he had discovered that decay of the 1 teeth is directly traceable to the formation of lac trie acid between and about the teeth, as a result of fermentation and decomposition of food left on their surf aces.y Now. to come to the practical point and tell our readers how to preserve greatly to their personal and improve their general health. Have your teeth cleaned and their surface thoroughly polished, taking care that all deposits of tartar are removed from the necks of the teeth and from-under the free margin of the gums.

Every, cavity should be filled, and any roots or teeth that are too far gone to be saved should be removed at once; otherwise, they will contaminate the breath act as breeding-places for bacteria, and cause other teeth to decay; The dentist having done his share of the workvit is necessary that -ypu do yours in order that his work may be a success. If you have no tooth-brush, lose no time in obtaining a good one, with moderately soft bristles, and some reliable dentifrice. A lixuid. mouth wash is very good to use evenings before retiring, as it percolates between the teeth more thoroughly, than does the powder or paste, and neutralizes any acid that remains. Do not depend on a liquid dentifrice to keep the surf aces of your teeth cleaniJt is necessary tousea paste or powder at least once a day to do this.

Above all, remember that decay is caused by fermentation and lactic-acid production, the result of food left on the teeth. Teeth decay very little during the day, as there, -isa large a-mbunfc of saliva always present, which dilutes any acid almost as soon as At night when we are asleep, the salivary glands are at rest, and there is very little saliva present in the mouth If the surfaces of the teeth are covered with food, it will ferment during the night, and the resulting acid not being diluted by the saliva, will cause decay. Hence, it is important to remove the foocTf rom your teeth before retiring, by brushing them, using tooth paste, powder, or liquid. These dentifrices are alkaline in reaction, and will neutralize any acid that may be present in the mouth. Try this method of preserving your teeth, and you will find it lessens your expenses, preserves your appearance, and improves your health.

Let us iave more work and less talk a Jong this line. After a while the big interests may choose todo business through the people's Senators, itistead of baying seats for Senators of their own. Mr. Bryan says that the day of Democracy has arrived; Mr. Bryan has seen it coming for about sixteen years just as clear ly as he beholds its arrival.

What the Supreme Gourt done for the Standard Oii Company in its decision Monday was a plenty. But they will find a loop-hole to evade the mandates of the court. That the street railway will now be completed is an assured fact, should be welcome news tp the towns along its route. But bad rather see a little more work and less promises. Actual work always tells the tale.

The benefits to be derived from live Chamber of Commerce are xaany and varied. Why not have such an organization in Burlington An organization without Kf will soon drag the'commimity in which it exists, down to its level. It appears that the Board of Aldermen are up against a prop-, osition in selecting a Chief of Police, not for the lack of candidates, but in finding a man whom they deem suitable for the job. We believe they will measure up, to the occasion and give us a good officer. In fact the plan eutKned by the board will require a good officer to hold the job.

We have seen a communication from the Southern Railway Company to Mr. R. W. Curtis pf this city, fro.m which we judge the re-bpening of the Company Shop buildings for the operation of a Steel Biidge and Structural plant to be almost an assured fact. The Railroad Company has practically agreed to Mr.

Curtis' proposition, and it only remains for a few matters to be adjusted to count upon the establishment of this plant as a certainty. With this issue The State DisPATch enters upon its Eourth yolumn of trials and tribulations in the newspaper field. In the future, as in the past, we shall strive for the up-building and advancement of Burlington and Alamance county along industrial lines.we have tried to be a constructor for good in the community. We heartily thank every one, great and small, who have contributed to our success, both those who have aided us by their; subscriptions and the liberal ad-yertisihg patronage accorded us, ft takes both to make a success. Again we say to you -who have helped us.

We- thank you most heartily. Continued frorh page one relation to the present educational movement. They- think correctly when they say, that if Alamance County is to do its best for its youth and all, it must use the best possible machinery in the hands of the practical every day teaching educator. Yes, but the particular; few ask, why are. these questions agitated so much at present, The answer is simple, because this is a day of specialization and concentration of forces.

To illustrate: A great scientist spent a life time studying the common house-fl yt and in the last hour regretted his mis-' take, in not studying only one leg. It is a day pwhen no man can be two in one, and that is can't be a successful farmer and a great captain of industry at the same time. To be more specific, the Word says, that we cannot serve two masters, for we will either love the one and hate the other or cling to one and for sake the other. And I might say by way, of parenthesis, that the present incumbent is a man of sterling qualities, of genuine worth, but like sa many men, has divided or permitted to be divided, his one force leading into fields of religion and the oth- er branch to steal out into the educational garden. The teachers of our county are anxiously awaiting the decision of our County Board of Education, for the teachers know the encourage-i ment.

strength, vigor and fresh hope that the visit of the proper Superintendent of Schools gives to teacher and student alike. This question becomes all the more acute, when I learn that the present incubent does not exV pect to be a candidate for re election, because it means thm selection of a man. Whom we have not tried in this particular, capacity. Therefore, it behooves every citizen of I our county to cast his eyes around about him for the most desirable, and the best qualified man, available for this position, that Can be secured for the salary paid. This leads me to the conclusion that to get the' kind of a man that this place commands, it is necessary to? go to the one and only source, the school of teachers.

The Order of creation, is everything after its kind. The farmer to the farm, the meachant to the store, the lawyer to the courts, the engineer to his engine, the preacher to the pulpit, the teacher to the school and the educator to the service of education. It is a matter of history not very far in the pasj 'that the County Superintendent of Edu cation, was some antiquated lawyer, obsolete doctor, relegated teacher or discarded partisan politician, that in many instances was permitted to detract from this the highest position of leadership in our county; but it is exceedingly gratifying to know that this conception of this calling has passed away many years ago in our county. We have only to view the counties of Piedmont North Carolina, to see strong, young, progressive teacli-ers and Educators in each county, serving the boys and jrirls and teachers as their constant friend and fellow- worker. For example, in Durham County, Massey, in Guilford, Foust, and in Wake, Judd, the boy, all giving the maximum results.

Therefore, I must say that what we need, if we need one thing more than another, is a man, who has spent his entire time in the study and service of the broad field of education, a man with special training for special work, and I for one of the many bystanders, see everyone of these qualifications and requirements for County Superintendent of Education met in an exceedingly full measure in our native born, home grown, self made, University trained scholar and Christian gentleman, Prof. J. B. Robertson, who has spent five years teaching in the public schools of our county, and five years Superintendent or Principal of several pf the best graded and high schools in the State. This young man, is a graduate from the Literary and Pedegocical department of the University-, of North Carolina, and the Mangum medal in oratory, the highest honor University offers, was unanimously award ed to Mr Robertson on the day of his graduation.

This letter is not alone my own impression, but that of a large number of the teachers of the County, are high school and collage companions of mine as well as of Prof. Robertson.
