Austin, Texas. — Pyorrhea is
chronic disease involving the gums
and also that part of the jaw bone
surrounding the roots of the teeth. It
also affects the membrane which
fastens the tooth to the J)one and
helps to hold it firmly in place, stated
Dr. John W. Brown, State Health
Officer.
Being an adult’s malady, it is sel-
dom seen in children. It is most com-
mon after middle life. It begins at
the gum margin. Early symptoms in-
clude swellng and redness. Moreover,
the gums are prone to bleed when
brushed. Usually there is no pain,
even in advanced cases. If the prog-
ress of this disease is not arrested,
the bone and ligament become in-
volved, pockets are formed between
the teeth and gum, and pus collects.
Uncleanliness, undue stress on a
few teeth, malnutrition, and irrita-
tion produced by the accumulation of
food, tartar, and bacteria around and
between the teeth are outstanding
factors in the development of pyor-
rhea. Badly fitted crowns and bridges,
and over-hanging edges of fillings,
which are direct contributors to mouth
uncleanliness, also lead to irritation.
Incidentally, pyorrhea is not conta-
gious.
It is a curtable disease if it is not
too far advanced when recognized,
Treatment is not by the use of drugs
but in educating the patient in the
proper use and care of the teeth ami
the removal of the remnants of dead
membrane adhering to the root sur-
faces, as well as any existing tartar.
Proper daily attention to mouth
hygiene is the one great bulwark
against pyorrhea.

A SLOWER POPULATION RISE
Minneapolis Journal: Along comes
the statistical division of the bureau
of agricultural economics, at Wash-
ington with some startling popula-
tion figures and calculations. The rate
of population increase in the United
States has fallen. Population total
will continue to rise, but in diminuen-
do for some years yet. Then it will
be static, and finally we shall make
the turn downward. The basis for
these conclusions are as follows:
There are 17 per cent more persons
over 65 years of age than there were
five years ago.
Children number 10 per cent less
than in 1930.
Only 2,300,000 babies were born in
the United States in 1934, compared
with 3,000,000 in 1921.
Dr. O. E. Baker of the bureau has
worked it out that, if the birth rate
decline continues, barring more im-
migration, the population will rise
until, by 1945, 5,000,000 will have
been added, making about 130 mil-
lion for continental United States.
After that, it will remain stationary
for a time and then begin to decline.
We shall be in position like that long
existent in France.
Here is an immense field for statis-
tical exploration, now that Congress
has made provisions against the eco-
nomic insecurity of old age. And
what a field of research for the soci-
ologist!

EDITORIAL
The best angle to face is the "try,
angle.” Quite often a student remarks
“I can’t do that; I would never be
able to accomplish a task of such
great importance!” The majority of
students do not have enough confi-
dence in themselves. They really do
feel that they would not be capable
of finishing a task once it was be-
gun.
If every student could only real-
ize that they have such a small task
in comparison with the task that
some handicapped people have.
The other day a blind man visited
our school and showed us how he had
kept his talents from going to waste.
He had ccomplished so very much, but
the beautiful part is that he accom-
plished these things only through
great difficulties. He could play the
piano, sing, read, write and you would
certainly be surprised at the ability
he possessed and had developed. Al-
though he has been blind since child-
hood, he has not lived in vain.
Using this as an example, one car.
easily see that the word “can’t’:
should never be used. If a person who
has had the misfortune of being
blind can learn so much, surely those
who are mentally and physically
healthy can accomplish anything
that they try to do.
So, students, don’t say you can’t
do the required amount of school
work. You can. M.M.M.
NEWS ITEMS
The students of C. H. S. have a
reason to be thankful this week. One
of the reasons being that they will
get a two-days’ holiday, Thursday
and Friday.
Miss Link is a visitor in San An-
tonio this week.
Clifton High School has been chos-
en as one of the schools to broadcast
over Station WACO. The Columbia
Broadcasting System, with the lit-
erary material furnished by the
Wells Publishing Company of Massa-
chusetts—has started a movement
whereby four schools in the trade
territory of the stations of the CBS
hook-up will be given the chance to
display their dramatic talent. These
programs, ten fifteen-minute pro-
grams for each school, will be pre-
sented with the purpose of locating
people with radio ability. The exact
date and time has not been definitely
set, but these will be announced
later.
There’s one thing certain and that
is—if C. H. S. doesn’t have a girls’
basketball team it won’t be because
there weren’t enough “coming out.”
If every girl starts practicing that
has promised to, we should be able to
pick a fair team.

SPORTS SLANTS
The Clifton Cubs crushed the Me-
ridian High Yellow Jackets by an
overwhelming score of 42-0 last Fri-
day afternoon at Meridian.
The first quarter was an even bat-
tle. The ball changed hands fre-
quently. The Yellow Jackets seemed
to have the upper hand throughout
the quarter. The Cubs scoring ma-
chine -began-clicking early in the sec-
ond quarter. With Dahl, Spangle and
Stryker doing most of the ball car-
rying the Cubs rolled up three touch-
downs. Co-Capt. Aubrey Dahl scored
first with Stryker going over for the
next two. The extra points were all
good and the half-time score was
Cubs 21, Yellow Jackets 0.
To start the second half, the Cubs
continued to run wild. The line open-
ed up nicely, through which Dahl,
Stryker and Spangle would gallop for
long gains. The Cubs rolled up three
more touchdowns and made the extra
point for each. In the last half Dahl
scored twice with Spangle going over
for the other. In the line for the
Cubs, Arthur and Hugh Bronstad,
Hoff, Jones and Pool were outstand-
ing.
The Yellow Jackets were led by
Rickard and Burch. Rickard is easily
the best man the Cubs have played
against this year.
The next and last game of the 1935
season will be played at Valley Mills
on Turkey Day. The Cubs have a
score to settle with the Eagles. It will
be the last game as a Cub for Co-cap-
tains Dahl and H. Bronstad, Stryker,
Jorgenson, Hoff, Jones, Cooper, Na-
bors and Calvert. These seniors are
determined to finish their high school
career in a blaze of glory. They will
have help and plenty of it, from Pool,
Arthur Bronstad, Spangle, May and
Orbeck. Even as determined as the
Cubs are, they need the support of
the town. Back the Cubs in Valley
Mills Thanksgiving Day. B.P.
COLDS CAUSE hXlF

GAS COMPANY SAYS ginned in Bosque County
- crop of 1935 prior to Nov.
A caution against huddling in one
room with windows closed during the
winter has been issued by the gas
company, which is continuing its se-
ries of educational messages on pre-
vention of colds by proper heating
and ventilation.
The company started the winter
heating season with a program of in-
formation designed to assist custom-
ers to make their homes more com-
fortable and more healthful. Accord-
ing to investigations by the com-
pany .many colds and other respira-
tory diseases prevalent in this sec
tion in the winter time are due to
improper house heating. After ex-
haustive study and advice from the
medical profession, the gas company
advises its customers that an even
temperature throughout all rooms of
the house with a certain amount of
moving fresh air is one of the best
preventatives of colds to be found.
“Many families huddle in one or
two rooms during cold days around
a small open flame heater with win-
dows and connecting doors tightly
closed,” says a current ad in the
heat-for-health campaign. “If you are
a huddier, you are violating one of
the most important rules of person-
al hygiene and good health. Without
adequate circulation air may become
as foul and unhealthful as that of a
tenement slums even though the
home may be the most beautiful in
the neighborhood.”
The advertisement states that if
people go from an overheated room
into a cold hall or unheated adjoin-
ing room they have subjected them-
selves to a condition that makes
them highly susceptible to commun-
icable winter disease.
The common cold germ is called
America’s Public Health Enemy
Number One, because, according to
medical authority 50 per cent of all
disease are traceable to the cold
germ. In order to reduce this menace,
the gas company advises an even
temperature throughout the house
with warm air in every room.

Since only the pure water leaves the
seas in the form of vapor, the
