DENTISTRY ON A HIGH PROFESSIONAL BASIS Commercialized dentistry—the kind that has been placed on a strictly business basis, a la dental parlor style—finds no ‘in my offices. Some thirty years ago, when I took up the practice of ital surgery, I acquired some professional ideals from the stalwarts who then were leaders in the den- tal profession—one of those highly essential ideals that every true dental sur- geon clings to, is that his skill and best service comes first, and the dollar is secondary. The dentist who is in the practice of dentistry for the sole purpose of making money, not only commercializes, but prostitutes his profession. I come to you with a record as a successful dentist of more than 30 years. I have always enjoyed, and retained, and merited the reputation of being a skill- ful, honest dentist. I have spent years in college training. I have in my official capacity as president of the Michigan State Dental Examining Board, passed on the fit- ness, the qualifications of hundreds of young dentists about to enter practice. I have had my ability recognized many times by the following honors: WANDERLUST Orin Davis, aged §, the city's champion runaway boy, appeared at the police station after a long ab- sence, spent in an institution, Tues: day morning at 4:30.
