'lio those who have been permitted a close acquaintanceship with him, l will leave that task. 'lihey have fallen far short of justice to him, but inasmuch as it is beyond the pale of lllllllllll possibility to suitably eulogize so line a creation as The Master, their efforts must suffice. The undergraduates of our college are more than proud to say that we have the most profound respect for this venerable f'Olllll. We dare not presume to say that we love him.

April ll. 1921. at seven o'clock, at the Hotel l.a Salle, Chicago, Illinois, he was recognized as a citizen, educator, author, editor and practitioner. A few of the glowing tributes paid him follow: Speech by Dr. llenry E. lfriesell, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Dean of the Dental Department of Pittsburgh University and then president of the National Dental .Xssociationz . . . If we must have more schools we certainly INLISK have more teachers and some plan m11st be devised for interesting our young men to take up dental teaching as a life work, not as a pastime, not as a side issue, b11t as something that will offer as much in ret11rn in the way of satisfaction in their life's work as anything else they can take up, and I know of nothing that presents a larger field, greater opportunities and 111ore important opportunities than dental educa- tion. Also I know of no Field in which a real teacher can do more good in the development of a great profession, in the development of units, the individuals who make up that profession than a great teacher, and we are here to pay o11r 7
