Philadelphia.-It took the emer-

genius of a Philadelphia boy in

And Frederick Williamson, Jr.,
sixteen, of 1712 Moore street, was
found not wanting.
For weeks he had been trying
in vain to convince employment
officials of chemical plants of his
ability. But, though his confidence
was not infectious, he lost none Of
it. He kept on working on the
model of a fire extinguisher.
When the fire was discovered in
q sofa on q porch outside his room
on the third floor, his parents, who
had smelled smoke from their sec
ond floor room, snatched up car
pets to beat out the blaze.
When young Williamson advanced
with his simple little device, his
parents kept on swinging their rugs
but not for long-for the fire
didn't last long after Frederick
turned his extinguisher on it, and
Engine Company No. "a went back

Georgetown University School
Of Dentistry was founded bS
william NJ. Cogan IN 1893 un-
der the name Of washington
Dental College and Hospital Of
Ora Surgery. For three years
courses were conducted under
this name until in June, 1901,
the school was Incorporated as
q part Of Georgetown Univer-
sity under the presidency of
che Rev. John D. whitney, S. j.
As it seemed advisable that the
newly acquired department Of
che university should be housed
near the medical school, and
there was ct that time no room
available in the medical school
building, it was decided that an
addition should be built on the
medical school to house. This
was started early in 1901 and
was occupied for classes IN Oc-
t0ber Of that year. Night and
day courses in dentistry we're
given until In 1915 the night
course was discontinued and
only the three day work given.
In 1918 the four-year course
was adopted and has been in
force continuously until the
present. s<f - tkEst
The year 1929 marks q very
important turning point in the
history Of the dental school. In
that year the school moved TO
its new quarters ID the new
building on the university cam
pus; and In that year also, re-
alixing the great need for the
training Of young ladies for the
profession Of dental hygiene,
the course Of study in that
branch was inaugurated.
On February 3, 1880. they
took possession Of their new
quarters In the Medical and
Dental Schools building, which
had been under construction
