By meriting and accepting the degree of doctor of dental surgery you have been extended the prized privilege of prac- tising in a health profession. But the exercising of a privilege in any area of human relations carries with it a duty or re- sponsibility to society. So too with the privilege of practicing dentistry — you do automatically assume an associated obliga- tion to your patients. One of the incumbent obligations is that of continuing your education — continuing it as long as you remain in the practise of dentistry. Four years of learning dentistry as an undergraduate should be viewed as merely an excellent start. Surely, even the most learned and skilled amongst you must realize that your dental school can be expected to supply only fundamentals of a pro- fession — that there is much more which has not been taught. Add to this the fact that advances and progress in our profes- sion — both technical and scientific — are almost daily occur- rences and one must necessarily conclude that learning must be continuous. The public — your patients — have a right to expect that you, the family dentist, will be aware of, will be familiar with or prepared to supply the best professional health services. Not only have they this right but, more important, you are under obligation to possess this knowledge by virtue of being a member of a health profession. You cannot escape this inherent responsibility of con- stantly learning, of continually striving to improve your knowledge and skills. By so doing, you not only fulfill your obligation to society but you also become a worthy member of a worthy profession. The members of the Division of Stomatology extend to you our best wishes as well as offer the hope that you will live up to the high standards of our profession. Dr. Edward V.

ORAL SURGERY William J. Savoy, B.S., D.D.S., Clin. Prof, of Dent. Continuing education has always been one of the bench marks of a truly professional man. Today, more than ever before, the de- mands of an ever expanding science and technology in dentistry along with the increasing social pressures assure the health profes- sional that he will never reach the point where he can relax in his pursuit of new knowledge and skills but will, at best, spend his entire professional life in becoming this type of individual. Truly the dentist generally and those with a special or limited interest in oral surgery have attained full stature in the health pro- fessions. As an integral component of the health professions the dentist then can not avoid his responsibility for pursuing the truth continually. He must pursue the truth in the art and science of dentistry, the truth in the biologic sciences, and the truth in the cultural development of man. DR. RUDOLPH H.
