CO Mark Twain said: "Man can't , the structures involved - A radio gram being a shadow picture, is J sleep out of doors without freezing - to death or getting rheumatism; he can't keep his nose under water over ;'" a minute without being drowned. He's the poorest, clumsiest excuse of all the creatures that inhabit the earth. ... "He has to be coddled, swathed . and bandaged to be able to live at nil. He is a rickety sort of thing any way you take him a regular British museum of inferiorities. "He is always undergoing repairs. A machine as unreliable as he Is would have no market. "The lower animal appears to us to get their teeth without pain or in' ' 'convenience; man's come through af- . ter months of cruel torture, at a time when he is least able to bear .it As aoon as he gets them they must be . pulled ouf"again. The second set will last for a while, but he will . never get a set that he can ' depend upon until the dentist makes one. ' "Man starts inas a child, and lives . on diseases-to the end, as a regular ' diet. He has mumps, scarlet fever, whooping cough', croup, tosilitis and . diphtheria, as a matter .of course, "Afterwards, as he goes along, his life continues to be threatened at'ev- cry turn by colds, coughs, asthma, bronchitis, quinsy, consumption, yel low fever, blindness, influenza, car buncles, pneumonia, softening of the brain and a thousand "other maladies of one sort and another. . "He's just a basketful of- pestilent - corruption", provided- for the support j and entertainment of microbes. .Look at the workmanship of him in aome particulars: . , -."Wha.t's his appendix for?

Because man is inch a frail and "helpless creature, so beset by rais- fortune and disease, it fell upon the shoulders of the medical and dental professions to invent some method, other than clinical findings, to locate his ailments. The most important development in this connection is the X-Ray. ?

In order to interpret correctly, one must know enough of the technique of taking X-Ray to know whether the taking of the radiogram was correct or faulty. Dental radiography is one of the most important branches of dentis try and at the same time the most neglected and abused. Ik is said that the undertaker bu ries the physician's mistakes. Un fortunately for the dentist, the ra diogram reveals his. One would hate to think that any dentist refuses the use of the X-ray for fear of re vealing his mistakes, and yet if fear, the greatest of all things that cause us to do right, has been responsible for better dentistry that is practic ed today, we thank God that the X-ray has put fear into our minds.
