AMERICAN Hungarian Journal is something special that no selfrcspectingAngcleno-H ungarian would miss. Luckily the performance is in the afternoon, so those who plan to go will be able to get from the church to the theater. SZEPTEMBER 23: An afternoon of poetry at the Hollywood Reformed Church, honoring the 100th anniversary of the birth of the late great poet László Mécs, introduced by the Rev. Dénes Fodor. Director: Éva Szörényi. Eugene Casagrande, DDS on The Importance of Fluoridation Should the Los Angeles water supply be fluoridated? Eugene Casagrande, DDS, the newly installed President of the Los Angeles Dental Society, definitely believes it should. He told me during a business dinner at the Csardas Restaurant that, contrary to popular belief, Angelenos do not enjoy the benefits of fluoride in their drinking water. Los Angeles is the only city in the U.S. with a population over 1 million that docs not provide this valuable benefit to its citizens. Although the issue did come up several times in City Council during the past 30 years, propositions, motions and efforts to optimally fluoridate L.A.’s water supply have consistently failed. An ordinance to raise fluoride level to 0.8 parts per million (from previous 0.2 - 0.6 ppm) was enacted in 1974 but not implemented. The proposition to distribute free fluoride tablets to schoolchildren also met with opposition in 1974. In 1975, Proposition F was defeated in general election. Dr. Casagrande answers some of the most often asked questions for our readers.- What is fluoride ?- It is nature’s cavity fighter. Fluoride is an abundant compound in the earth’s crust and is found in minerals that arc in rocks and soil everywhere.- Why does it have to he in so many different products (looth-Wc arc looking for co-workers experienced in TEXTILE manufacturing, possibly with Hungarian diploma.

Children benefit from systemic applications of fluoride (from drinking liquids or eating foods containing fluoride) that incorporate fluoride into the enamel of developing teeth, making them more resistant to decay. After teeth develop, topical applications of fluoride from toothpaste and mouth rinse help the tooth structure to further prevent decay by promoting rcmincralization of enamel.- Has fluoride and its effects on public health been adequately tested?- Since its introduction 50 years ago, adding recommended levels of fluoride to community water supplies has been carefully studied and found to be the single most effective public health measure to prevent tooth decay and to improve oral health for a lifetime.- What would be the expense? Do the benefits outweigh the costs?- The average cost for a community to fluoridate its water is 51 cents a year per person. Over a lifetime, that is less than the cost of having one cavity treated. Studies show that people who drink optimally fluoridated water from birth will experience up to 40 percent less decay over a lifetime. - j -CULTURAL EVENTS SEPTEMBER 16: "My favorite poems" by Éva Szörényi at the Arany János Culture Circle. All old and new friends of the Circle are welcome! This weekend, the consecration of the new church in Reseda will take place. As we reported at the time, and as all the members of the Hungarian community are sadly aware, the building of Grace Hungarian Reformed Church was burnt down, probably by the hand of an arsonist, and it took years to rebuild it. Well, finally the day has come, this Sunday, September 17th at 11 a.m. The Rev. Bálint Nagy expects a large crowd, and that’s the way it should be! Everybody is welcome to participate. SEPTEMBER 17 is also the day of the HECZEY-SHOW.

(310) 355-1475 Adm. Pastor Dr. Béla Bónis, (310) 430-0876; Caretaker: Dr. Béla Bíró, (310) 597-7459 Dr. Bonis’ English sermon was based on Matth. 5:5 and 11:29 b. Our Lord said, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." Most people do not believe it. The wise believe it and benefit by it. Who is the meek man? Well, he is not the man who tamely and feebly allows himself to be maltreated, to be a doormat. Moses was among the meekest of men but he braved the fury of the totalitarian in power, he ruled a cowardly mob, he led an ill-disciplined army of slaves to victory, and he founded a nation. Meekness is the normal attitude of a brave man. It is always the result of severe selfdiscipline. It was an outstanding characteristic of the one peerless life among men: Jesus, who himself said, "...learn from me... I am meek and humble in heart..." Therefore, the meek man is not a weak man. He is a man, rather, who accepts God’s will for his or her life and who is courteous and considerate toward others, one who has that "gentleness which wedded to strength makes a man," as Tennyson put it; in other words, a gentle man, or as we would say, a gentleman in all relations of life. The man who accepts God’s will for his life and who is thoughtful, courteous, and considerate of his fellow man may not gain a lot of real estate, but he is the one who ultimately will get the most out of life. He will, in Jesus’ phrase, "inherit the earth." And so it follows that we shall have a gentleness and forbearance toward all men and a hatred toward the sin that manifests itself in them.
