one prognosis z gmnfana mural QIDIIBQZSI 1904lQIIt1lt8l to us another evidence that the fame of the Indiana Dental College is far-reaching and justly deserved. . Our class officers for the year have been: .President: H. S. Hickman, Vice-president, Harvey Glenn Boyd, Treasurer, O. M. Young, and Secretary, E. C. .Van Der Volgen. - , During the third period of our Work We have been sad- dened by the death of one of our classmates. Everett F riedline died on December 9, '03, of that dreaded disease, pneumonia, after an illness of less than a vveek's duration. He was a true friend, a popular man in the class, and a charter member of the Psi Omega fraternity. He was also elected one of the editors of The Prognosis. Resolu- tions of sympathy were passed by the class at the time of his death .iin C For three lo-ng yearslvve have toiled and labored dili- gently to obtain those much coveted sheep-skins-those parchments Which will proclaim to all the World that We are full-fledged Doctors of Dental Surgery. We have read and studied many text-books, We have given careful attention to lectures 5 we have worked conscientiously in the laborato-ry and the inlirmary. All of our toil and labor has been for this one end-to learn the Science and Art of Dentistry. But our careers as dentists Will not be truly successful unless We have thoroughly mastered that other essential for a money-making practitioner. The second, though not given in the class-room nor included in the curriculum, is equally as important as the first 5 for the two go handiin hand. The one, Science-the other, Solve. EDGAR C. VAN DER VOLGEN.

We also soon learned that we must keep careful guard over our own instruments and other dental appliances. Over in the chemical laboratory strenuous lives were also being lived. For our o-wn bodily comfort it behooved us to take care lest we receive the effects of an impending explosion brought about by some experimenting neighbor. Dr. jackson too had to- be especially attentive lest in some foolhardy moment one of his pupils should swallow some life-destroying acid or- unconsciously CPD confiscate a Bun- so-n burner or some other article, valuable to the practicing dentist. Seriously, though, we feel that Dr. jackson's course in Chemical Laboratory is. a great credit to- his ability as an instructor. We all esteem him no less highly as a man and a friend, than we do as an instructor and a demonstrator. The class officers who attended to the b-usi- ness end of our duties were: President, Swindlerg Vice-- president, Young, Secretary-Treasurer, Fee. Enjoyable as were our Freshman and junior years, yet best of all has been our Senior year. Our third year co-urse has been less theoretical and more practical, and hence more pleasant and interesting. Our instruction in Porce- lain Work under Dr. Byram has been highly enjoyable-. We consider it' an honor to have studied this important subject under a man who- is regarded as authority through- out the state. Our major subject has been Operative Den- tistry, given by our dearly beloved Dean, Dr. George- E. Hunt. His co-urse has been thoroughly practical, and we should be well equipped fo-r successful work when we en- gage in active practice. Indeed, our course this year, as a whole, has been most satisfactory. We have been pleased with Drs. I-Iurty in Chemistry, Jameson in Ortho- dontia, Pfafllin in Oral Surgery, and Wynn in Medical Diagnosis. Q A few of the original of the members of the class were, for various reaso-ns, compelled' to- discontinue their dental studies, but their places were filled by the welcome addi- tions to our class fro-m o-ther schools. These new men, fifteen in number, were attracted, to our college by the advantages here offered for practical instruction, which is l QQQQC-'7

Qrullege 1-1904 Qmmal TI-IE ADVICE OF- UNCLE ALLEN SPARKS I Uncle Allen, asked the caller, do you know anything that is good for the toothache P b Uncle Allen Sparks opened his desk, took from o-ne of the 'pigeon holes a large bundle of newspaper clippings tied with a string and threw it into the caller's lap: Do I know of anything that is good for the toothache ? he echoed. My young friend, I know of six hundred and twenty-seven infalli- ble ways. I have been collecting them for forty-nine years. You try those, one after the other, and if they do-n't do any good, come back and 'I'll give you one hundred and sixteen more. Bless me ! added Uncle Allen, with enthusiasm, you can always cure the toothache if you go at it right? I-Ie dug up a bundle of yello-w-stained clippings, and the visitor, pressing his hand tightly against the facial structures, in the region of the oral o-riiice, hastily made his disappearance, and when last seen he was entering an office door over which hung the sign, DENTIST.
