Book Description
Excerpt from Transactions of the Illinois State Dental Society at the Twenty-Eighth Annual Meeting, Held at Springfield, May, 10 to 13, 1892 One Of the most natural things to do when one has friends who have made a decided success of life, is to congratulate them and wish them years of future prosperity. As your presiding Officer for this year, I feel as though, while other Presidents have had sufficient reasons for praising your good qualities, and feeling proud of the standing you have made in the dental world, none more than myself have a right to congratulate you, for you are a year older, and in better working order than ever before, and the fact that you are twenty-eight years old, and have never taken a backward step, shows a sturdy manhood that makes you by right the most looked up to State Dental Society in the world. Another thing, you are the father of four flourishing district socie ties whose names are already receiving favorable mention from the outside world, and their meetings are being compared in interest to yours, which should spur you on to always be the head of the house, and not allow the youngsters to outstrip you. On account of having to make so many suggestions for the smooth working of the society, my address will necessarily be dis connected, and will lack the quality so essential in an essay, of sticking to the subject. I feel so much the importance of attending dental societies, and meeting men who are leaders in their profession, that I cannot urge on you too strongly the help it will_be to you to identify yourselves with your local societies.
