SOCIETY HOLDS SECOND

Session Opened Yesterday Morning
Or. Craig M. Work, President Of
Society, Delivered Annual Address
Over Sixty Are In Attendance.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Eleven representatives from this
city are in attendance at the second
annual convention of the Southeastern
Iowa Dental society, which opened
yesterday in Burlington and which
continues today. With over sixty. dele
gates present, the opening session took
place yesterday in York hall. President
Craig M. Work of this city called the
meeting to order after which Rev. ].
r. Sutherland. D. D., made the open
ing prayer. DR.. r. L. Cochran OF Bur-
1ington made the address Of welcome,
which was responded to by DR.. J. B.
Montfort, Of Fairfield. Dr. Work then
made his address as president of the
society.
The meeting has thus far proven to
be q most enjoyable one, not only
from the stand point Of attendance, but
as to the program and discussions
which follow the various papers and
clinics.
Presidents Address.
Or. Work stated that in some man.
ner or other his name had been left
off the program. but humorously told
the assemblage that they could not
escape him.
His address was an excellent one
throughout and was enthusiastically
received by the members. He blamed
the failure of many dentists to ally
themselves with societies Of men Of
their profession to the fact that the
dental colleges do not point out to
their pupils more fully the advan-
tages of attending dental meetings.
More is being done in this line by the
schools, however, in later years than
has been done heretofore The speaker
suggested that 1t would be an excellent
idea II the deans or secretaries of all
dental colleges would send the names
OF their last graduates to the local
dental societies and request, along with
1t, that special effort be made to In
terest the newly graduated member in
society work. In this way when the
young dentist presented himself to
some of the older members of the So
ciety he would receive more attention.
