It is now an integral part of the university, entering into all its activities. Prior to this amalgamation the Philadelphia Dental College existed as such from the year 1862. having been founded by Dr. John IT. McQuillen and several of his professional associates. At the time of its incorporation there were but three other dental schools. Upon Dr. McQuillen’s death in 1879, Dr. D. D. Smith succeeded him. and upon his resignation in 1881. Dr. James E. Garretson was made Dean, holding the post until his death in 1895, when Dr. S. H. Guilford was elected Dean. In the spring of 1918 Dr. Guilford was made Dean Emeritus and Professor 1. N. Broomell, who was chosen to succeed him. still retains the position. The faculty has at all times been comprised of men eminent not only for their professional renown and ability to impart knowledge, but as devotees of science as well, the names Stellwagen. Kingsbury, Garretson. Roenning, Cryer, Burchard and Flagg being ample testimony to this fact. The present faculty represents fully the current thought of the dental profession and embraces leaders in the different specialties now covered by the broader term “Dentistry.” The college has witnessed few changes in the presidency of the Board of Trustees. The first incumbent was Rev. Richard Newton, D. D.; the second was Hon. James Pollock, LL.D., arid the third, General James A. Beaver, LL.D.. while the present incumbent is Russell H. Conwell, D.D., LL.D., President of Temple University. The Alumni is now a body of four thousand active members, carrying forth the ideals and purposes of the institution, which they regard as a source of pride and to which they owe their training. The Philadelphia Dental College, through the long years of its existence, has ridden well the storms which it has encountered, the vicissitudes which all enterprises whatever their object must experience, culminating in a survival of the fittest. Having weathered these trials, and having emerged upon comparatively peaceful waters, it would seem that a new dawn is about to break, and with the aid of the Trustees of Temple University, a day of merited tranquillity is about to be enjoyed; and when the evening comes our Alma Mater will have taken the enviable place to which it must have been destined.
