Those of us interested especially in their dental health realise that the sixth year is of great importance, for it is during this year that the six year molars usually put in their ap pearance. There are four of them, two uppers and two lowers. The six year molar is the sixth tooth from the front center of the mouth on each side, above and below. And why are 8 they so important? Because they are 3 the first permanent teeth and because n each occupies a strategic position in u the dental arch. i- The six year molars do not replace a baby, or primary, teeth. They come in j immediately behind the primary teeth and, often come before any of the n primary teeth are lost. Many moth v ers think that they are baby teeth. ,1 Because of this mistake and the mis s taken idea that baby teeth do not r need careful attention, they are fre . quently neglected. Such neglect is a dental tragedy. The six year molars are called the keystones of the dental Arch. They help to determine the positions of the other permanent teeth and, therefore influence the symmetry of the jaws. These teeth should be kept in a healthy condition throughout life—. from six to “three score years and ten” plus. This calls for care. Regular visits to the dentist are a “must." As soon as the six year molars appear the child should be taken to the family dentist so that he may examine these new teeth. They may need attention. However, there may be, and often are, slight imperfections. Early detection and correction of such defects will save these teeth from becoming badly decayed. To help preserve this year’s crop of six year molars—4 x 90,000 — those important first permanent teeth, we are alerting all parents of those who boast, “Now We Are Six.” Look in your child’s mouth, keep watch for the six year molars, remember that they are permanent teeth, and take care of them. Care Recommended For Hunting Season Overman Presents Ten Commandments For Safe Hunting If you are one of the thousands that will join the ranks of game hunt ers this week, it will pay you to re member that sportsmanship and cour tesy may save a life—“maybe yours,” says County Agent C. W. Overman. Mr. Overman says the first rule in good sportsmanship is to “ask the farmer’s permission whether the land is posted or not. No one likes to have his fall and winter crops damaged by persons tramping through soft fields.” “Second, and just as important, is for all hunters to remember that just three causes lead to two-thirds of all hunting accidents: (1) humans in line of fire, (2) mistaking humans for game, and (3) hunting with the safe- ty etch off. ■ ’WWI t . “Sportsmanship is Just good man i ners. Ii is common aenae in handling ■ guns, plus consideration for others. : It means also the use of the right gun for the right game, hunting only in , season and taking the limit only if he' : can use the meat or the trophies. For i bird hunting, the true sportsman takes a trained dog to retrieve crip : pies. He puts out cigarettes and i campfires carefully, breaks matches i before dropping them and, in other ‘ ways, uses Iris head.” Mr. Overman recommends the fol .< lowing ten commandments for safe i ty in hunting: i 1. Treat every gun with, the respect i due a loaded gun. 2. Carry only empty guns taken down or with the action open into your ' auto, camp and home. 3. Always be sure that the barrel and action are clear of obstructions. 4. Carry a gun so that you can al ways, under all circumstances,' control 1 the direction of the muzzle. 5. Be sure of your target before you 1 pull the trigger. 1 6. Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot. 7. Never leave your gun unattended unless you unload it first. 8. Never climb a tree or fence with i a loaded gun; lay it down. I 9. Never shoot at a flat, hard sur face or the surface of water. 10. Do not try to mix gunpowder and alcohol.
