BENEFITS Fluoridation of a community water supply is shaping up as the best public health bargain of all time.For less than 15 cents per person per year, the ravages of tooth decay are being reduced as much as 65 per cent in communities throughoutthe United States and Canada.The cost of a single filling would pay for the fluoride for one person for many years.The late Dr.John G.Frisch, of Madison, Wis.as chairman of the fluorine committee of the Wisconsin State Dental Society, which pioneered in the procedure, said: \u2018There can be no question as to whether a city can afford it, but whether any city can afford to be without it\u201d.There are to date more than 1000 communities on this continent which have rallied under the banner of fluoridation to protect the future health of their children\u2019s teeth.In many of these communities, the leadership came from the public \u2014 women's clubs, parent-teachers asso- Wednesday, May 11, 1955 ciations, churches, labor unions, civic groups.They wrote letters to health departments and city officials.They formed citizens\u2019 committees.They were able to show that adjustments of the fluoride content in a water system was feasible from an economic standpeint.Cost of equipment has been found to range from several hundred dollars for a small town to several thousand dollars for a medium sized city.From an engineering standpoint, the mechanism of adding fluorides to the water supply is no more involved than adding chlorine.Water fluoridation is the most promising means at our disposal for the prevention of dental caries among children.It is as basic as all other public health programs \u2014 adequate nutrition of expectant mothers and infants, proper education about pro- hylactic measures such as tooth Érushing and oral hygiene, etc.It is no different in principle than chlorination and pasteurization as necessary measures to prevent disease, and today Canadian people accept these measures as necessary.Issued as a public health service by the Quebec Dental Hygiene League.WOODLANDS NEWS The Annual General Meeting of the Woodlands\u2019 Recreation Association is to take place at the
