Missing Rear Teeth
If all of the rear teeth in
one side of your jaw are
missing you may opt for a
partial denture instead of
a span of empty gum.
Your dentist will have to
rely on your front teeth
for support in making
such a partial denture.
He’ll also have to make
maximum use of your
gums and supporting
bone to give the denture
stability.
Even though this kind
of partial denture is not
as stable as the kind that
is affixed to supporting
teeth on both sides of a
tooth void, it is certainly
preferrable to the
alternative of full den
tures. The remaining
natural teeth can con
tinue to provide strength
in chewing food and help
maintain the shape of the
face.

Improving Your Vision
If you have 20-20 vision and
can see perfectly well all of
the time, no matter how close
or far away an object may be,
you’re one of the lucky ones.
You’re also lucky if your jot
doesn’t require perfect
vision.
Things may be different at
home when you’re trying to
fix something and need the
ability to see things close up
especially well. Or if you
have a bobby, such as needle
work, that would be almost
impossible to do well without
accurate vision. Or if you like
to read for long periods of
time without suffering
eyestrain or fatigue.
In some occupations,
perfect vision is essential.
Surgeons and airline pilots
can’t afford to take chances
either. At least I hope not.

rear to hold this type of
partial denture in place,
there is more pressure on
gums and ridges.
A certain amount of
shrinkage is natural
occurrence. This means
the partial denture will
have to be adjusted from
Jjme to time. This will
probably include relining
to compensate for
changes in your gums to
make it fit securely. But,
it is certainly better for
your health, your ap

Summer Heat
Continued From Page 2-A
i( can also make a person
much more vulnerable to
the heat. It is advisable to
ask the physician who
prescribes medication how
heat exposure will affect the
body. Medication for high
blood pressure, ner
vousness, depression, poor
circulation or sleeping
problems can cause com
plications and even death
when the patient is exposed
to various degrees of heat.
Warning signs in your
body take the form of
physical and mental
changes. Most people feel
hot, uncomfortable, and
notice a lack of energy or
loss of appetite during hot
weather. These are mild
danger signs. More serious
signs are dizziness, rapid
heartbeat, diarrhea,
nausea, throbbing
headache, dry skin, chest
pain, weakness, mental
changes, breathing
problems, vomiting and
cramps. Older individuals
should pay attention to these
early warning signs of heat
illness because heat stress
can be fatal.
There are facts about heat
that everyone should know
Temperatures above 90
degrees can be very
dangerous, particularly
when the humidity is also
high. Crowded living con
ditions increase this danger.
A sudden increase in
temperature can cause
problems because the body
is unprepared for the strain.
People should take steps
to lower their body heat if
they begin to feel hot and
uncomfortable. Heat stress
can cause many medical
problems including heat
exhaustion, heat stroke, and
heart failure. Proper
precautions can make a
person more comfortable,
prevent illness, and perhaps
save his life.
The best way to keep cool
is to observe a few safety
rules such as staying in cool
surroundings that have fans
or air conditioning. Air
movement reduces heat
stress by helping to lower
extra body heat; however,
when it is very hot, a fan
may cause a rise in body
heat by blowing hot air on
the body.

Baths ans showers in cool
water can remove extra
body heat 25 times faster
than cool air. Lightweight
and light colored clothing
can provide protection from
the sun. The body needs
more fluid in hot weather,
and water is the safest
drink. Remember to drink
plenty of water in the
summer.
It also is a good idea to
slow down, avoid heavy
meals and hot foods, cut
down on salt, and avoid
alcohol.
If a person observes these
few precautions, he can
avoid illness enjoy a
long hot summer.

New John
Deere Tractor
DES MOINES, 10.
Deere & Company unveiled
a new line of John Deere
farm tractors Sunday that it
says will enable a farmer to
do his wort; faster yet use
less fuel for each acre
worked.
The company introduced
10 models, the largest
number of new models it has
ever introduced at one time.
They range in size from 45 to
190 horsepower. They were
shown publicly for the first
time at the National Corn
Growers Association con
vention.
The company said field
tests have shown that the
new tractors will use as
much as 15 per cent less fuel
than their predecessors for
each acre worked, depen
ding on the conditions and
type of work being per
formed.
Most of the improved fuel
economy will come from a
combination of mechanical
front - wheel drive and a
new 15 - speed power - shift
tranmission which makes it
a simple job to keep in the
proper gear. The front -
wheal drive is available on
all models and power shift
on the five largest.
White Tail Deer
White-tailed deer were a
rare’ sight in some parts of
North Carolina a few
decades ago, but now they
are a modern wildlife
success story. Due to a
restoration program con
ducted by the N.C. Wildlife
Resources Commission,
deer are now plentiful
throughout the State --
biologists estimate the deer
population in North Carolina
is close to half-million
animals.
