arrra iHariar. 1911 a lietter course on anesthetics would l e valuable additions to the dental compreliensicm. The number of chairs and demonstrators should keep pace with tlic number of student to be taught. If the dental student could secure the same demonstrator each day till a j;i en case be finished the work would be more co-ordinate and better service rendered. The use of a chemical laboratory would fix in the student ' s mind that which, if left to the un- aided memory must soon be lost. The use of the museum should l)e encouratjed. The clinics which exist now only in name should constitute a jirominent feature in dental in- struction and each student in exchange fiir his diploma should give more knowledge and more skillful work. Matriculation should be restricted to those who can at least s])eak the English language. In the Medical Department Easter holidays should be annt)nnced without the UNual petition. More autopsies should be held with the assistance of students and a collection of pathological and anatomical slides of unusual conditions by appropriate staining reactions be secured to be exhibited during the lectures, facilitated by magic lantern or other device. Eew things would add more to the teachers ' power to imjiart knowledge. Mid-winter ex- aminations that shall be final on the subject matter covered would inform l)oth student and teacher where increased efifort was needed. I would most respectfully suggest that manv of the lectures on anatomy be delivered from the centre of the dissecting hall, with students grouped around the dissections to secure a fuller com]:)rehension of what the lec- turer is teaching. A change of schedule could be made that would allow a more generous dinner hour. The minor branches of the senior year would become more efficient if divided into elect- ive groups. When college property is kept properly repaired there are many reasons to believe the disposition to its injury ceases. A small assessment per man each year would permit the classes to give smokers to their instructors which would tend to lessen the gulf between professor and student and perpetuate the good feeling that should ever exist between the host and departing guest. Five ])er cent, of the University ' s income for one year would abundantly sullice for our main- little changes, it only demands that we make useful our latent resources. The ])rice is not money Init interest from those who would guide the destiny of our school. That human enterprise is great that wisely, day by da ' , uses for the good of its kind the means at hand, and my earnest desire is that my pr(.)fessional . lnia Mater, dear old .Mary- land, shall be truly a great university.
