L'.S. Guy, superintendent of
Duplin County schools, announced
that Duplin County public schools
will; participate in the dental health
contest to be held during February.
The theme for the contest is "Let's
GeCDental."
Guy stated. "Parents of school age
children in Duplin County are being
saved many dollars and our children
are being saved much pain by
preventing dental decay."
The schools have been involved in
a dental health program which
consists of weekly flouride mouth
rinses and school water flouridation.
The project began in 1975 under the
direction of Grace Newton, public
health dental hygienist. The school
water flouridation is maintained by
personnel from the N.C. Dental
Health Section in Greenville, by the
maintenance personnel of the school
system under the direction of J.L.
Rhodes, and by a specially selected
person at each school.
Since the ; ogram began, there
has been a 38 percent reduction in "
j ? ? ? _ xt : ?.
denial caries, ine inspection rcpori
in 1974-75 indicates 55 percent of the
students inspected were referred to
dentists. In 1982-83. only 22 percent
of lhe students inspected needed
referrals.
??'Teachers are trained to adminis
ter; the flouridation. and do so one
day' each week. The students are also
taught such habits as brushing,
flossing, etc. All the aspects to have
good, clean healthy teeth," Guy
ad^cd.
Dental health officials have visited
Duplin County from other countries.
Contest sponsors are the N.C. Dental
Society, dental health section of the
Division of Health Services. N.C.
Department of Human Resources.
and the N.C. Department of Public
Instruction.
According to Dr. Bill Kelly, state
chairman, 1984 Children's Dental
Health Month committee, principals,
have been asked to decide if their
schools will participate in the con
test.
"Awards wil) be determined
based on the number of points a
school earns by completing activi
ties during the weeks of Feb. 6-17,"
Dr. Kelly said. "Points will be
awarded for activities such as having
a dental display in the school library,
holding a non-sweet snack day,
conducting PTA programs related to
dental health, etc."
Dr. Kelly stated. "Classroom
teachers may add to their school's
point total by scheduling dental
health activities such as swishing
with flouride mouthrinse or asking a
dentist to visit and talk to students."
Principals may add points to
overall scores by actively, partici
pating. Superintenden'ts and
administrators may also give a boost
to the winnino schools' scores bv
completing suggested activities.
First prize for the winning schools
(large and small school categdries)
will be state trophies and cash
awards of $500. District winners will
receive cash awards and permanent
plaques. The cash awards and
trophies will be presented by the
N.C. Dental Society and its local
affiliates.
"We're asking individual dentists
and local dental societies to urge
schools in their areas to participate
and, whenever possible, offer their
assistance with contest activities,"
Dr. Kelly said. "We want our young
people to be constantly aware of the
importance of good dental health
care."

the service goes off. We try to >
make sure that doesn't happen.
During the past year, elec
tricity from CP&L was available more f

We know it's hard to do without electricity, even
for a few minutes. So we are working to keep your
service so dependable you can take it for granted.
What to do If the power goes off
g
1) First, check to see that the trouble is not with your
own fuses or circuit breakers.
2) Then, see if your neighbors' homes are without
power. If so. wait a few minutes for service to
resume. If the power remains off. call CP&L.
