The children of the Dallas School District are being made aware of the fact that ‘‘Hap- piness is a Healthy Mouth,” slo- gan for Dental Health Week, this week, through the guidance and direction of Mrs. Doris P. Wolfe, dental hy- gienist. Jane Cornell, art teacher, is responsible for providing posters and the ‘Don’t be a Bad Mouth’’ pins being worn by each child in the first four grades. From Kindergarten through grade six in the Dallas School District each child has a choice of examination by a family den- tist or a screening by the school dental hygienist. Children re- questing screening by the school hygienist are screened and parents are notified if cor- rections are needed. Family dentists forms are sent to parents requesting examination by family dentist. These forms are returned signed by the dentist when necessary correc- tions have been made. Some arrangements are made for dental corrections through school medical or school clinic. As part of the educational preventive program, children in kindergarten through second grade are taken in groups of 10 for discussion of the importance of diet, correct brushing, regular visits to the dentist and the purpose of fluoride treat- ments. All students in grades one through six are offered a fluoride application after all ne- cessary dental corrections have been made. This treatment has been proven to decrease ca- vities by as much as 70 percent.

The bits of food and food juices left on the wheel can decompose and be tran- smitted to the food in the next can opened. Thorough regular washing of the cutting wheel is recommended.

SNOWDON PO Box 849 Wilkes-Barre, Pa. 18701 730 ON YOUR DIAL Phones: 822-6108 AC 717 735-0730 by Shawn Murphy “You are now a three-year old child, now a two-year old, now an infant . . . 7’ the soothing voice insinuates itself into the consciousness of the young woman, and when it next sug- gests that she is a ‘‘baby in your mother’s womb,’ the girl hunches herself into a fetal position. The young woman, a student at the Wilkes-Barre Campus of Penn State, was participating in a program presented recently at that school by John Kolisch, hypnotist. Kolisch, who maintains that our minds permanently record everything we ever say and do, was demonstrating this theory with the coed. After hypnotizing her, he had ‘‘suggested”’ that she was a child again—six years of age. “What grade are you in?” Kolisch asked. “I'm in Sr. Maria Therese’s first grade class,” came the re- sponse. When asked to write her name on a blackboard, the young lady scribbled her name in large block letters; she could answer the hypnotist’s question as to how much two plus two equalled, but when asked to multiply four by four, she re- plied, “‘I don’t know—we haven’t gotten that far yet.” Further questioning revealed that she had had a birthday party when she was six—and that she could identify the party guests by name and could re- member the gifts each had brought. Kolisch enlisted the aid of several other subjects, all of them students at Penn State without any prior connection with the mentalist. When all were in deep trances, he made different hypnotic suggestions to each. Two were made to believe they were the world’s foremost soft-shoe dancers, another thought he received a “hot seat’ from his best friend whenever he sat down, still another found a platter of cookies delicious and disgusting by turn—delicious when the hypnotist tapped her on the right shoulder, disgusting when he tapped her Jeft shoulder. In a final demonstration, a young man was placed in a state of total catalepsis and his rigid body was stretched between two chirs, head on one, feet on the other. The hypnotist then sum- moned a young lady from the audience and had her stand upon the young man’s stomach. There was neither outcry nor collapse from the subject, but much applause from the awed viewers. Was there trickery and fraud in this performance? Probably not. John Kolisch is a mentalist of no little repute—he has addressed medical associa- tions, written books on the subject, acted as a consultant with physicians and even—the clincher—performed on the Johnny Carson Show. The human mind, he believes, is the key to toal self-knowledge and is, incredibly enough, an unexplored territory about which most of us know virtually nothing. Speaking in a sophi- sticated Austrian accent, Dallas R.D. 3 333-4500 Shavertown 674-7156 GORDON, JR. Kolisch expounds tirelessly on all mind-related subjects: hypnotism, extra sensory per- ception, reincarnation, even the existence of unidentified flying objects.
