BEEMER IS HONORED FOR 50 YEARS' WORK Professional Men Hold Midwinter Meeting at Hotel ill Baltimore when they held the annual midwinter meeting of the Mason City district of the state dental society at the Hotel Hanford. A feature of the evening banquet was the presentation by the Cerro Gordo county dental society in dentistry.

Dr. Beemer is a graduate of the first dental college at Baltimore and will observe his fiftieth anniversary in the profession simultaneously with the celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of the founding of the school. 111 the afternoon session approximately 75 men attended the practical demonstration ed by Dr. R. M.

Jam versify of Minnesota pression Technique for Plate Work." Presiding over the banquet program as toastmaster was Dr. Jed Hemingway, Waverly, who introduced Dr. Paul Thompson, Forest City as the first speaker of the evening. Dr. Thompson read a paper, one of several prepared for presentation at similar meetings all over the country, titled "A Century of Progress in Dentistry." The paper traced the history of the profession from the founding the first dental society in the United States on Dec.

3, 1834, to the present day. Dentistry needs three things today, it continued, to take the lead in giving dental attention to the many needy persons not now getting it, to pav more attention to scientific study and research and to give more attention to preventative dentistry. Following: Dr. Thompson, a second paper was read by Dr Hardy F. Pool, Mason City, president-elect of the Iowa State Dental society.

The paper told of the earliest dental work more than 1,100 years before Christ, and followed its history through the centuries to the present day. Dr. Pool's paper, like that read by Dr. Thompson, foresaw further attention to preventive dentistry in the future. Dr.

Beemer followed Dr. Pool, bringing to the assemblage an outline the plans for the observance at Baltimore March 18-20 of the two one hundredth anniversaries in the dental profession. Dr. Beemer, who will attend the celebration, urged those present to make definite plans to attend the affair, saying that they would not regret traveling the distance. Lectures by famed dental authorities will be given there which normally would require traveling to many dental conventions to hear, he said.

Following Dr. Beemer's paper, Dr. R. F. Kunz, Mason City, was introduced by Dr.

Hemingway. Dr. Kunz presented the watch chain and pendant to Dr. Beemer, paying tribute to the veteran by saying, "Dr. Beemer has given something to every man in this room, and he stands ready to give again if necessary.

But this time we want to give him a token of our esteem." The final event on the program was a talk by Dr. L. E. Von Berg, Charles City, who spoke on ''Looking Forward." "The past 100 years, in which dentistry has made such great strides, should be only the thresh- liold to the future," he said. "In the future preventive dentistry will be the watchword.

Dentistry is today and will continue to be a health agency and not a pain easer. Dr. Von Berg outlined the situation that led the dentists to oppose the Wagner health bill and told of the changes dentistry would like to see in the proposed legislation. 34 He also paid tribute to the younger dentists present and urged them to build the membership of the American Dental veteran of 50 years in dentistry, was Gordo county colleagues Monday evenine when they presented him a watch chain and pendant in recognition of his service. Making the presentation was Dr.

Harris, the former a physician who began the practice of dentistry in Baltimore, in 1800 and gave the first lectures on dentistry in America at the University of Maryland between the years" 1323 and 1825. Dr. Harris, a former student of Hayden. became a professional associate of his old master, and the two, with a few of their colleagues, petitioned the Maryland legislature for a charter to establish a dental college. This was granted Feb.

"Approximately 2,200 it men and a few young women enter the freshman classes of our 39 American dental schools each year now," said the Forest Cityan He pointed out that a a student must, after being graduated from high school, spend two years in college on a predental course and then four years in a dental school. Back in 1840. according to the speaker, a dental student could finish all his schooling in four months, the first class starting in November and coming up for commencement h'c following February. 1 f- The discovery and demonstration of the anesthetic properties nitrous oxide and ether were cited Kinney as important contributions of the dental profession to mankind. He said that the (echnic of administering general anesthesia has been so improved thnt its use now permits surgeons (o perform thousands of previously impossible operations, relieve suffering: and pain a save thousands of lives every year.

Dentistry has also developed its operative technic and its biologic training to a high degree of perfection, according to the forum speaker.
