TO 11 IE CLASS OF 194( For four years you have strived to attain the goal which this year has culminated in the realization of your dreams. These years have been exacting in many respects, but the reward which comes to you on this occasion has been fully earned, and it goes without saying that your faculty is justly proud to have you numbered among its ranks of professional men and women, and we hope that you will carry the banner of your Alma Mater, by becoming active Alumni in the growth of Temple University Dental School. Always remember that year by year changes will be effected to main-tain the highest standards in education that you will be proud, as you are now, to say that, “I am a Temple graduate. ' These four years have been stepping stones to a splendid professional career, and you are to be congratulated on the profession you have chosen. It is truly said that our knowledge of the sciences is inversely as our direct interest in them. Whatever you have learned is the foundation upon which to build additional knowledge by association with your fellow men. When the ordinary uneducated man speaks his thoughts in simple, straightforward language, perfectly intelligible to his companions, whose minds arc as healthy and act as naturally as his own, he is not forced into a straight jacket of technicalities. You who are educated and lettered have earned the right in your profession to practice a very important branch of the healing art and to be a credit to your respective communities. To have been your adviser during the past two years has been an honor 1 deeply appreciate and my wish at this time, since you end your student days, and become men in the Practice of Dentistry is to offer you the hand of friendship and wish you all the success in the world. You have earned it for the many sacrifices made both by you and your parents. May God bless your future. 13 F. James, Class Adviser, 1940
