...progress of dentistry during the past sixty years has been extraordinary. Indeed, dentistry as a profession requiring a wide range of varied knowledge and a high degree of skill of eye and hand may almost be said to have been created within that period. The work to be done by the dentist, and his materials and apparatus for doing that work are, for the most part, applications of three sciences: chemistry, physics, and biology, which have each made rapid progress since the middle of the nineteenth century. To the progress of applied chemistry, dentistry owes a large number of valuable...
...profession has every reason to be content with its progress during the past sixty years; but it is looking forward to further development.

Individual competition has done more than anything else to make the nation what it is. Socialism is self-contradictory and opposed to deep-rooted and ineradicable human instincts. If everything is accessible to all, why should man strive for something that will not be remunerative to him? Each is proud of his own skill, knowledge, and ability. Socialism in the United States would drive those of superior qualities out of the country, to where such qualities would have a free chance...
