Bring This Ac With You To the Public The National Dentists must hold an enviable reputation, for during the last month two compet- {tors have appeared on the scene. One tried to steal our good name bedily during the time we were moving into our new quarters, while the other comes out and claims its former management, which is both laughable and un true.
