The faculty are gratifed in being able to inform
the community, that, in addition to the laboratory
already attached to the college, arrangements have
been made for opening dental irfrmny which
will 90 into operation the ensuing session, and be
conducted on the most liberal principles.
It is designed to extend relief gratuously, to all
those who are too poor to pay dentist, by simply
defrayng the cost Of the material used in repairing
the teeth.
