Four | members of the board, aroused to indig- | nation by The Call's expose of the mus- deeds of Dr. F. F.

This promised action on the part of the | State Board of Dental Examiners leaves | only Dr. Tebbets and Dr. Louls T. Cranz remaining as active members of the board. Dr. Drucker is also a member, but has come the has in an offictal capacity. Dr. Cranz naturally does not take kinlly to his officlal assoclation with Dr. Teb- bets. It was Dr. Cranz who precipitated the lal by bringing formal charges of official mis uct against Dr. Tebbets. It was Dr. Cranz who prompted his sociates to resign their positions by sisting that Dr. of being a member of the b other members were jeo, itations by remaining on the board It 16 not likely therefore that will allow his name to stand in on much longer with that « the only other member upted board.

There is among local dentists an emphatic opinfon that the Governor will find the greatest difficuity In inducing reputable dentists to a what Dr. Pliss, Dr. Métcalf, { and Dr. Moore have thrown'away.

Tax Collector Receives a Silver Snuff Box From His Clerks. An agreeable incident relieved the mo- notony of the proceedings in the Tax Col- lector's office on last Monday evening. It was at the close of the busiest day ever experienced in the history of the office, when over $1,000,000 in coin of the realm was collected from a generous public. Tax Collector Sheehan was on the point of going home to seek needed rest, when he was asked to step into the cashler's office.
