The iarognosiz z glnniana Dental QIDIIBQB. 1 1904 Qnmtal four institutions at present representing the -University are Butler College, the liberal arts department 5 the Medical College of Indiana, department of medicine, the Indiana Dental College, department of dental surgery, and the Indiana Law School, department of law. In the fall of 1896 Dr. Frank A. Morrison took the chair of Physiology, and the following year Dr. Byram began as technic teacher in the College. Dr. Jackson be- came connected with the teaching staff in 1901. The Indiana Dental College has nearly eight hundred graduates. These are scattered over the civilized world. At present, diplomas from this College are hanging on the walls of offices in Canada, England, Germany, Persia, Japan, Brazil, Alaska, Cuba, China, the Philippines and a large majority of the United States. In the spring of IQOI, we graduated a native born Persian, John Sergis, at present located in Oroomiah, Persia, a native born Jap, Seimaro Kubota, at present practicing in Tokio, Japan, and a native born German, Gustav Krumme, located here in Indianapolis. In 1899 we graduated Samuel Ordetx, a E.. 8. native Cuban, at. present practicing 'in Cienfuegos, Cuba. The Indiana Dental College draws more students from other states and from foreign countries than any dental college of its size in a city the size of Indianapolis. In fact, exceptingifour or 'five of the very large colleges located in large centers of population,-like Chicago or Philadelphia, no college in the country .has a student body composed of residents of as many different states. This is due largely to the loyalty of our -graduates. I-Iaving obtained their dental education here and practicing as they are under a diplo-ma of this school, they send students tous, realizing that the better school we have, the more honored and hon- o-rable is the diploma they hold. A In the class of.1888 was graduated Dr, -Robert T. Oliver, formerly of this city. Dr. Oliver was connected with the College for- several years as pro-fessor of prosthetic den- tistry and, later, oral surgery. In 1901, when a bill was passed by Congress creating an army dental corps, three men were to be selected as Supervisors. Dr. Oliver was appointed by Surgeon-General Sternberg as one of this Board. dentists at Manil This cants fo College, largest p ination.

The third year of the College is notable in that Dr. J. N. Hurty assumed the duties of the chair of chemistry, Dr. Henry jameson retiring. Dr. Hurty is therefore no-w in his twenty-third consecutive year of service in the College. At the close of the third year, fifteen students were gradu- ated and the College was firmly established, the two-year course still prevailing. C For several years the College pursued the even tenor of its way, gradually acquiring prestige and reputation. In 1887, when the National Association of Dental Faculties met in Washington, a representative from this College was present, and the College has always been a ,member in good standing 'in that 0-rganizatio-n. A 9 Beginning with the session o-f 1890-1891, Dr. A. C. Kimberlin took charge of the teaching of anatomy, in place of Dr. J. H. Oliver. So that this is Dr. Kimber'lin's four- teenth year of service in the College. The following year, the chair of materia medica and therapeutics, defunct for several years., was revived and Dr. George Edwin Hunt was elected by the trustees- as professor o-f that branch. This is his thirteenth year of service, therefore. In the following year pathology was added to his duties, and in 1899 he took up the work o-f operative dentistry. I The freshman class of 1890-1891 was the first under the three-year rule and beginning with the session o-f 1893- 1894, a seven months' session was held, six months having been the rule up to that time. p During the summer of 1894 the present Co-llege building was erected and the session of 1894-1895 was held therein. In the spring of 1895 Dr. Hunt was elected Secretary of the Board of Trustees and executive head of the Faculty, a position he still holds. In 1899 the office of Dean of the Faculty was created, and since that year he has acted in that capacity. I ' In the spring of 1896, the University of Indianapolis was organized by the affiliation of four existing colleges. It is hoped that this- coalition will so-me day lead to the establishment of a great university at Indianapolis. The 'mlb

About a 'year after thelestablishment of the Army Dental Corps, one of the Supervising Bo-ard, a Dr. Mor- I' gan, resigned. The Surgeon-General of the Army decided to promote the dental surgeon inthe Corps that had made the highest average on the examination. This method re- sulted in the appo-intment of Dr. John. W. I-Iess, formerly of Washingtofn, D. C., who was graduated from this Col- lege in 1890. So that the Indiana Dental College has fur- nished two of thethree members of the Supervising Dental Bo-ard, the third man being Dr. john S. Marshall, a medical but not a dental graduate.
