now represents one Of the relatively
uncrowded professional fields for young
women. Since the importance Of the
proper care of the mouth and teeth
as a general health measure Is daily
being more and more stressed. the
practice Of the profession Of dental

one of service, but pleasant remuner-
ative vocation. Dental hygienists are

DR.. Cogan in Charge.
The department of dental hygiene
is under the Jurisdiction of DR.. Will

Dentistry. who founded it in 1898 as
the Washington Dental College, under
which name 1t operated until June,
1901, when 1t was incorporated as q
part of Georgetown University during
the term Of President John D. Whit
ney, S. j. The course has been OF
four years since 1915.
Among those associated with Dean
Cogan in the administration of the
department of dental hygiene and as
lecturers to it, other than Miss Cair

in cases of special request concerning
hitherto uninvestigated quarters, the
supervisor is quite willing to add them
to authorized lists II circumstances so
warrant.
When by request was given q par
tial list of some Of the subjects pur-
sued by dental hygienists in their
course of training, my respect for their
fieid Of knowledge, which had been
great before, increased over 100 per
cent. Here are some Of them, selected
at random from the various trimes-
ters: Anatomy, chemistry, clinical
assignments, physiology, sterilization
technique, bacteriology, nutrition and
dietetics, anesthesia, sanitary science
and public health, preventive dentistry,
roentolosy, public speaking and many
more.
Miss Cain, the supervisor Of the
students in dental hygiene as well as
thier class room lecturer. feels that
their grounding in toothbrush tech
nique and proper office routine are
important. as well as their training
in voice control and speaking poise,
since 1t Is important that they be
able to 60 out as convincing expo

may seem, its course for the training
of dental hygienists in the school OF
dentistry is limited entirely to women.
But this does not mean that George

What Is dental hygiene? Up-to-date
dental house cleaning with many
ramifications, I would say. So, per-
haps, this is the reason that women
are permitted to enroll in a field in
which their sex has always shone in
preaching and practicing the doctrine
that cleanliness is akin to godliness.
Miss Lillian Cain, D. H. (the let
ters after her name mean that she Is
a registered dental hysieniSD, is the
supervisor of this very progressive de-
partment Of Georgetown's school of
dentistry. She Is also a lecturer to
those in training who desire to use
these same coveted symbols.
Her subjects include education,
ethics and dental jurisprudence. mani
kin practice, office routine, personal
hygiene, toothbrush technic and
prophylaxis. This latter course means
in lay terms, the cleaning and polish
ing of the teeth by hand and with the
use Of the electric machine.
Only Four Of Sex on Faculty.
With three other members Of her
sex Miss Cain represents the sole in
vasion of femininity on the roster Of
the faculty of the school of dentistry
at Georgetown. Her associates are
Miss Ruth Moore, r. N. (meaning
registered nurse), instructor in sterili-

Likes to Knit

Yes, knitting. One of the gifts
sent by the duchess to the COM
mittee of the National Knitting
Guild last year was a soft woolen
scarf fashioned by the duke.
The duke sets a much more
conservative and less Individuals
tic standard than the sartorially
resplendent Edward in the matter
of clothes. On ceremonial occa-
sions he wears his air force uni
form.
In recent years, he has devoted
more and more time to social serv-
ice work. Touring industrial
towns, he always demands to see
everything" He has even plunged
through the stencil of glue fac
tories against the urgent advice
of his aides, insisting that If peo-
pie work there he would go there.

Holds Church Post

After acting as one of the sin
counsellors of state appointed to
act for his majesty during the
illness of the late King George v
in 1928, the Duke of York was
named lord commissioner of the
general assembly of the Church
Of Scotland in 1929. It was the
first time that the office had been
held by member Of the royal
family since 1900 and the old
royal palace at Holyrood was
opened for the occasion.
The duke and duchess held
court there during their stay which
marked the most brilliant season
Edinburgh had seen in years.
AS lord commissioner the duke
sat enthroned during reunion of
the two great bodies into which
the Church of Scotland had been
divided for many years.
In all the ceremonies the duke
and duchess saw to it that the
children should be given places
in the front so that they should

He takes active part in games

The duke is very devoted to the

when he is playing with Princess

Princess Margaret Rose, who was
born at Glamis Castle in August
of 1929 while they were in Scot,

Never, if he can possibly help

INDUSTRY SEES
RECOVERY TO
CONTINUE
BY JAMES L. KILGALLEN

NEW YORK, Dec. 10 GNS0.
Optimism that business recovery
will continue was reflected in the
attitude of nearly 1000 industrial
leaders attending the concluding
session today of the Congress of
American Industry.
In prepared speeches and in
private conversation, there was a
marked tendency on the part of
the leaders to cooperate with their
employees and with the Govern.
ment for the purpose of making
prosperity as permanent as pos
sible.
E. T. Weir, chairman of Ma
tional Steel Corporation, urged in
duStry to undertake solution of the
human and economic problems
arising out of the depression. He
said business leaders not only
must be efficient producers and
sellers, but must recognize the in
fluence of their economic actions
in social and political fields.
Robert L. Lund, president of
Lambert Co. of st. Louis, Mo-,
former president of the National
Association of Manufacturers, re-
CARDS the future of business op-
timistically. He said:
"If the American system con-
tinues to operate this country
will have the highest standard
Of living it has ever known
which means the highest of any
nation in te world"

sci of the National Association OF

By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, March 31.-The man
agement of the Gulf States Steel Co.
was successful in re-electing its board
of directors at the annual meeting in
Wilmington, Del, it was announced
here last night.
A source close to the Gulf States
management said representatives OF
the Republic Steel Corp, which has
an interest In Gulf States. were pres
ent with plan to seek election of a
slate representing the Republic inter-
est. but finding themselves outvoted by
the present management, headed by
William H. Coverdale, withdrew.
An official announcement on behalf
of the Coverdale management said:
THE continuance of the independ-
ent policies Of Gulf States Steel Co.
was assured at the annual meeting OF
stockholders held in Wilmington,
through the reelection of the five
retiring directors, who were nominated
by the management. ."
The contest recalled the efforts of
Cyrus H. Eaton of Cleveland to acquire
control of Gulf States several years
ago with the view to merging it with
Republic.
With its producing activities greatly
expanded as result of its merger with
Corrigan, Mckinney Steel Co. and
Truscon Steel Co., Republic a few
months ago was reported to be seeking
control of Gulf States, one of the
leading steel producers in the Bir-
mingham, Ala, district.
These rumors persisted without
drawing any word of confirmation or
denial from either management, but
they were given credenoe in steel
circles.

TORONTO, March 3l-Though the
copper industry is recovering from its
long period of depression. further price
advances depend upon the mainte-
nance Of a sound production policy
throughout the world" Robert G.
Stanley, president of International
Nickel Co. of Canada, Ltd. told stock
holders at the annual meeting today.
while nickel is and will doubtless
remain our most important product"
he said, at is of interest to note that
the world copper industry is now re-
covering from a long period of trade
depression.
Consumption is increasing in the
countries to which our copper is ex-
ported, particularly in Great Britain,
where I believe the activities of the
Copper Development Association have
demonstrated the great value of an
organization of this character in ex-
panding the market for this essential
metal. !.
44lC ICoCllCtIOii VI Illi1lC OQtPUJ, IC-
sulting from a producers agreement,
coincided with an almost universal
expansion of consumption. and in
consequence excess stocks have been
largely nquidated and prices i'm
proved
Further price advance depends
upon the maintenance of sound
production policy throughout the
world and upon continued industrial
improvement.
Reviewing the company's operations
last year, Stanley declared that more
nickel. copper and platinum metals
we're produced and sold than ever be-
fore, and net profits were substantially
greater than in any past year."
Regarding suggestions from outside
sources that the company retire its z
per cent cumulative preferred shares
or convert them into some other form
of security carrying a lower dividend
or interest rate, Stanley said the man
agement had decided that it is not at
present in the interest OF the company
or its common shareholders to effect
such capital change.
