...Mention has already been made of the service rendered by the Dental School to the student body, especially the freshmen--thirty-eight hundred and two cavities were discovered, showing a condition needing serious attention--and beside those referred to their own practitioners six hundred and twenty-two men were treated at the Stillman Infirmary. This is only one of the ways in which the School is seeking to extend its usefulness. Inside its walls its teaching and research have followed, and in a large degree led, the change of the last quarter of a century from a purely mechanical...

A movement by the Investment Bankers Association to bring this matter strongly to Peruvian attention was post-poned last week, pending the shaking down of the new Government...
...fire engine, the pursuing police patrol, or the fleeing armored car are alike in pursuing their objects fast, noisily, and "efficiently." After all, aside from aims and standards, the successful criminal represents much that is worthy per se: certainty as to goal and attainment through careful planning; not to mention the acquisition of a competence and a certain Robin-Hood glamor and daring...
