23d we copy the following paragraph APP
pearing in its report of the meeting of
the State Dental association, held in
that city last week: ''Dr. W. H. Carson
of DodgeyiLe. read an essay on Dental
Education. He said that the great ma
iority of dentist were not men of broad
education, but, on the contrary, had,
in a great many cases, not even com
mon school education. y higher tone
would be given to the profession if
dentists were more particular in regard
to admitting young men to their offices
as students. The considerations should
be a moral qualification mechanical
ability, and at least a common school
education"

previous fairs held by the association.

The date for the annual reunion of
the old settlers of Grant county has

J. y. Rountree, the president of the
association writes that he will expect
to see a good turnout. The old SET
tiers of Grant county are fast becom-
ing fewer and fewer, and it is to be
hoped that those who remain will
make the coming reunion one to be
remembered in future years.
