Gynodontia by Abraham Stoff the author deals at great length of the treatment-dental treatment that is-of female patients and proposes gyno- dontia as a new specialty for those qualified by experience and knowledge of feminine psychology The author takes occasion to thank Drs Clifford Iove and Barney Schultz for valuable suggestions in the preparation of the text An article in the Cosmos is enthusiastic over some of the work of Dr Arthur Fox declaring that it marked a great step forward The work is the production of a shade guide that actually matches natural teeth In the same issue is a denunciation of the tendency on the part of some prac- titioners to rely on preparations like Korega for the retention of dentures. It seems a trifle incongruous that at the present time these preparations should be so well advertised by the author of this article Sidney leitz An advertisement announcing the organization of the Rose Taxi Cab Cor- poration by the merger of two companies owned separately by Drs Rosenfield and Rosin At that time these two will still be practicing dentistry-evidently for diversion. How to Rear a Large Family was a very instructive volume written by Dr. George Goldman. The author shows that he is quite familiar with his subject, because of his early and very successful marriage. -2 elk 5 '55 il' si? 5E 5 3 ll I E EE 'E El? L l- An advertisement in one of the magazines reveals that Dr. Sidney Schwartz will lead a very happy life, for he will succeed admirably in combining his vocation with his avocation. Dr. Schwartz will be proprietor of a Dental and Billiard Parlor. He advertises the slogan Tickle the ivories while I tickle yours. I found several numbers of The Dental News , a new periodical. It is a monthly founded and edited by Dr. Aaron Bluestone, and devoted to the news of the profession-personal rather than technical. lv ll S 5 E1 E E.

He tells how, finding New York rather crowded, and deciding to open in a less populated dis- trict,,he chose-like the go-getter he is-the North Pole. Here he has the exclu- sive patronage of all the explorers, and is making out well enough, he says, to cover his rent without trouble. ' In an item concerning Dr. Burton Goldberger, we find he has made the resolu- tion never to get to his office more than half hour late. He has made this resolu- tion before, he says, but this time he means it. pinning' I kg- ' I 1 ,K llgpl nnrl --5 all: EE 5 1 1 2 .i... 1 .... , ,,,,, , ,,,, , . , is'MF !!::5Eiili1fiiifff:::,':e F!!!!l7-fsifi.Ll., ..llI'.l'f1',21lllF!.,' 4 H361 '

Incidentally, there is no mention made whether the suffering of the Armenians preceded orlfollowed Dr. Fenkel's work. As for Theodore Beichman, I am sorry that I found nothing favorable to report. He will be candidate for Presidency of the United States, but, most unfor- tunately, he will run on the Democratic ticket. Even the marked success on the part of his campaign manager, Marcy Frey, in getting out the female vote will not offset this handicap. ' I was in the midst of an interesting little book, Art in Dental Practice by Dr. Louis Kirsch, when the old man reappeared, informing me that it was long past midnight and time to leave. l Thanking him for his favors, I left, with the intention of returning early the next day. I did return, but-and you may explain this how you please-of the bookstore there was not a trace! I, for one, shall attempt no explanation. : E i f 'E v, : ,111 5 Ax 5 lr 542 EL,-E I r I 1 5 Q E E. 1 2 'li , 52.-1 1' i -F at 'tml' 'Ill illl 'Ill' '::l .lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllu ll HIllIIllllllllllllIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllI Vila.
