District Board Declares Sanitation
and Personnel Now
Much Better.

Marked improvement of the sanitary
condition and the personnel of dental
establishments in the District occurred
last year, according to the annual re-
port of the Board of Dental Examiners
of the District submitted yesterday to
the Commissioners by DR.. c. Willard
Camalier, secretary treasurer.
More or less regular inspection Of
dental offices is now possible with the
facilities of the board itself. and with
the splendid cooperation of the Police
Department" said DR.. Camalier, lit
can be confidently stated that sanitary
conditions are greatly improved over
prior years. 1t is now a very dangerous
procedure for dentist or other per-
sons to employ unlicensed operators and
the public can feel reasonably assured
that it is now dealing only with per-
sons who have been licensed by this
board"
DR.. Camalier pointed out that al
though the wording of some of the dem
tai advertisements last year "bordered
on deception TO the public" they were
not fragrant enough to warrant prose-
cution under the law. 1T is difficult to
control extravagant expressions" he
said, but conditions along this line
have been improved in the District dur
ing the past four years. AS matter of
fact, they are probably superior to those
