LA GBANDE, OREGON DO YOU KNOW: FOR CERTAIN? ; The idea is to keep your teeth in a normal condition and this cannot be done without the aid of a dentist. This is a age when it is possible, to keep the natural teeth until the time comes when you no longer need them, provided you look aiter them in time. Modern methods of treatment make this possible. Remember nothing can quite take the place of the natural. Do not think because a tco h has an abcess at the root that you must lose it. In a large majority of cases it can be saved . Be reasonably sure that your Dentist knows his busi ness. A college training on theory is absolutely necessary if the best service is to be ren dered. Practice is good but theory worked out i:;to practice is better. My motto Is "The Greatest Good to the Greatest Number." I. E. STEVENSON, D. D. S. LO that your title is gocd?
