Excerpt from Occasional Papers on the Prevention of Some Common Diseases in Childhood The following papers appeared originally in various medical and dental journals, and thus the support which one should have given to another was no doubt lost. Nevertheless, the views have gained a certain currency, and with regard to the theory and practice of dietetics as advanced, it may be said that they are now not only widely accepted, but even belauded. Thus, in a recent article on "Diet in Childhood, " it was stated that "in the last few years the diet of children has been entirely reconsidered. Much of the traditional feeding has been rejected, and in its place a carefully thought out dietary based on scientific principles has been established." It may be said, in general, that both medical and dental journals uphold, more or less vigorously, the teachings on diet referred to. It must be observed, however, as it evidently is by the editorial staff of medical journals, that many medical men - even, indeed, the majority of those who have recently been writing books on children's diseases - are quite unconscious of the new views. Since the subject was brought forward more especially in dental journals and books, this is not very surprising.
