Photographs of the typical
American boy or girl usus..";y «how
a healthy, handsome set of teeth.
Unfortunately, p< ri--ct teeth are
far from typical. Next to trie com-
mon cold, the nr. st widespread dis-
ease is tooth decay uhich strikes
r.ine out oí te- Aw) ica.vs. Most
of this tooth d^cay ciir. be stopped
jr. its tracks ut prevented a.vo-
ir*', her by regular visits to the den-
tist, more frequent ar.d rr.' re thor-
ough brushing, and avoidance of
v between -rr.eal
snacks and sweets.
New equipment
8- i modern tech-
niques er.abie den-
t.s-.s to do more
than plug cavities
t r pull teeth. To-
day's dentist con-
. structs more, ex-
«tract? íes?. \V¡th
r/ w plastics, a skilled dentist can
often transform mere stumps into
well-shaped teeth. I-'er.tists can
make big, horsey teeth look small-
er by shading the edges for optica!
illusion. Poor positioning of teeth
can be corrected in adults as well
as children. Sometimes a mere dab
of cement teases the tongue into
pushing a displaced tooth back into
line.
You not only have more to gain,
you have less to dread from a visit
to your dentist these days. New
hign speed drills cooled by a spray
of air or water do Necessary drill-
ing in jig time with little discom-
fort. Yet dentists still find that •
some patients go rigid with fear 1
merely approaching the office.
Many patients suffer more from :
their fear of anticipated pain than 1
from any actua. pain encountered. '
Some dentists see hypnotism as a i
Íjossible solution to these fears, ¡
)Ut more are using tranquilizers
such as the new Vistaril which is
taken by the patient in txe waiting
room. These tranquilizers do a ,
truly effective job of relax ng the 1
patient and bring a trip to the den-
tist into proper perspective.
Teeth can aifect appearance, ,
health ar.d even personality, yet
less than one-third of the people ;
in the U. S. receive adequate dental
care. Regular visits to your dentist
can improve your social ar.d job •
opportunities and will certainly '
lead to good healthy teeth and ¡
more smiles of self-assurance.
life insurance will receive Sl3,-
OOI .900.00 in regular annual pol-
icy dividends during 1959, Dr.
George T. McMahan, Manager of
the Veterans Administration Cen-
ter in Waco, announced today.
Dr McMahan said this repre-
sents Texas GI policyholders' pro-
portionate share in a national
1959 dividend total of S256.000,-
000 00 declared recently for par-
ticipating GI insurance
He explained that the dividends J
are primarily a refund to policy-
holders of part of their premium
payments, and are made possible
because the death rate among GI
policyholders continues to be low-
er than the tables upon which the
' premiums were established by
law
Policyholders are requested not
to make dividend inquiries in ad-
vance. since this would delay pro-
cessing time, Dr. McMahon stress-1
ed.
A breakdown of Texas GI pol- ¡
upholders' proportionate share in |
the 1959 dividend declarations'
shows that 250,470 veterans hold- j
ing participating 'policies in Na-!
tional Service Life Insurance
NSLIi. which originated during
World War n. will receive $11,-
891.000.00 in dividends.
The other group, 15,076 veter-
ans holding participating policies
in U. S. Government Life Insur-
ance (L'SGLI), which originated
during World War £ will receive
$1.110,900.00 in dividends.
Dividends will be paid as soon
as possible after the anniversary
date of each policy during 1959.
For example, if a polio- was is-
sued any September 1. the anni-
versary date will be September 1,
1959. Dr. McMahon pointed out.
He added that dividends will be
paid to holders of both term and
permanent plan participating NSLI
and USGIJ policies.

-vV-w r*.
Christmas trees from
Canada — more than 2S
million of them — will be
cut in Canadian forests for
the living rooms of United
States' homes thi3 holiday
season.
The trees come mainly
from small producers, many
of whom look on the busi-
ness only as an incidental
means of adding to their
farm income. In the aggre-
gate it is big business, how-
ever, worth |6.4 million
last year.
About 30 per cent of the
trees shipped to the United
States come from NoTa
Scotia, 25 per cent from
Quebec, with New Bruns-
wick placing third. Trees
grown in British Columbia
are exported to the U. S. west coast states, and many Ontario trees
go to the U. S. middle west
The biggest market* for Canadian trees In the United States are
in the states of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Illinois, and
Texas. Balsam fir and spruce are the chief species harvested in Quebec
and the Maritime provinces while Scotch pine has assumed first place
in Ontario. British Columbia exports mainly Douglas fir. fNS

DRESSING UP! Stars of western television shows take
great pride in their wardrobes. Each of the outstanding
western favorites shown here not only "lives the part" he
portrays ... he actually looks it, down to the last authentic
detail. Will Hutchins, above, star of Warner Bros. "Sugar-
foot", seems mighty happy with his brand new pair of fine
western boots! Who could blame him?

ears washed by his mother. Herbert and his mother, Rose, are special
pets of Jack Wilkinson, noted Algonquin Park, Ontario, guide. Herbert
