He traced the progress of dentistry

tripod of the dental school. the
dental journal and the dental So

come from unsupported research,
subsidies or guidance by leading
strings from Washington"
The public is being indoctri-
mated" he said. with the thought
that not the individual, not the fam
lily, but the state is responsible for
providing medical service and medi-
cal care " =
why this modern idolatry of the
state? Why this readiness to turn

tasks-"just taking 1t for granted
that my husband was all right up
north"-but ignorant Of the fact he
had discovered the North Pole.
Spring wore on into summer and
not until September S did word
reach Mrs. Robert E. Peary that her
husband had achieved what men
had sought in vain for 400 years.
Looking back today, the admiral's
witty and sprightly widow OF rs
says she wouldn't have had a bit OF

of waiting for her husband to re-
turn, the six trips she made with
him to the Arctic and the three

relatives here where she was visiting.
ITS a wonderful help in directing
parties in the field, but 1t cuts down
heavily on the morale of the men
out there when they get word Of
illness and other troubles at home"
she said.
Events Of that September Of 80
years ago are the clearest things in
Mrs. Peary's memory.
"A man from the Associated Press
brought the first news" she recalls.
He got it at Brunswick, Me. hired
a car to drive IS miles and then
rented a boat to come out to the
island where we still have our sum-
mer home"

Mrs. Stafford, who was then is,
but he still insists I kissed him
when he brought the news"
Mrs. Peary wasn't sure which 1T
was, but she said she didn't believe
the news. Il said to myself if
father was able to send a message
so they could get it, he was able to
send me one, and won't believe it
until I hear it from him."
An hour and half later. she said.
the proprietor of the country store
on the mainland rowed out with a
telegram.

today and could not attend the
service.
1t was 30 years ago today Peary
and his little band came, exhausted
and foot-sore after a forced "starva-
ton" march over the foe ice. to q
spot where his compass swung in
circles and his calculations con-
WINGED him he was at the Pole at
last.
The only known survivor of that
intrepid band is Matthew A. Henson,
colored, now 70 years old, who re-
tired from the Customs Service in
New York three years ago. With
the admiral and Hanson on the
successful dash were several Eskimos
In recent interview Hanson said
that If Admiral Peary was elated at
having reached the goal he had
sought so long he failed to show it
I'VE were too tired to show much OF
anything" Hanson said, land we
were sleepy.
I'VE didn't have long to rest be-
cause there was only enough to eat
for a few days. and we were afraid
the ice might break up behind us. y
Hanson said that polar explora-
tons now are luxury tours compared
with the trips he took with Admiral
Peary.
