Assistants Help Dentists
There are 700,000,000 un
treated caries in the U.S. to
day—averaging four per per
son. Only 40 percent of the
population visits a dentist each
year. Ninety-five percent of
those not going, need to.
Yet, barely enough dentists
are graduating each year to re
place those leaving the profes
sion through retirement or
death, Dr. Edwin Hibbard of
the Emory University School of
Dentistry says.
The only answer to the prob
lem seems to be that the den
tist be more efficient, using au
xiliary personnel to increase
patient loads, he explains.
To achieve this, Emory’s
School of Dentistry has had a
$40,000 grant from the Divi
sion of Dental Public Health
and Resources of the U.S. Pub
lic Health Service for the past
year to train students in the
use of dental assistants.
“Statistics show that one as
sistant can increase a dentist’s
patient load by one-third; two
by two-thirds,” Dr. Hibbard
says.
The U. S. and Canada are ,
the only countries in the world I
which carry stocks of wheat i
from year to year. Here in 1
North America is the only
“food bank” in the World.

God makes even the wrath

truth has been abundantly

of the country to the other. It
has awakened them more than
one of Billy Graham's sermons!
It has spurred the careless, and
the unconcerned to stand up
and be counted, as against be
coming a Godless nation. It has
prodded teachers into affirm
ing their determination to
head theid pupils in demonstra
ting their faith in God by of
fering Him their praise and
thanksgiving at the beginning
of their school day. It has
caught the attention of those
who have taken for granted
our freedom of worship, and
had not thought it necessary to
specially teach their children,
by precept or example that they
believe in God. It has made
us check on and count the
ways, by which our nation has
registered the fact that as a
nation we affirm our faith in
God and our freedom to wor
ship Him according to the dic
tates of our own hearts.
Let us read carefully what
the Supreme Court said, and
we will find that it was only
the adoption of a special fixed
prayer’s being required of the
pupils. It did not prohibit in
formal voluntary prayer by
teacher or pupil. So, we are all
as free as ever to pray as we
please where we please and
when we please.
Justice Stewart clearly states
in his minority dissenting state
ment the position of most of
us though we do not express
it so eloquently as he does. Re
duced to a sentence he says let
those who want to say a pray
er, say it.
Hence let us be thankful
Thursday, July 26, 1962
that God has used the Supreme
Court to stir us up to consider
our rights, and let us stay
awake and use these ngh.s
and pray.
We have the age old promise
“Before they call I will answer
and while they are yet speak
ing I will hear”. Isa. 65:24, and
“Ye shall seek me, and find
me when ye search for me
with your whole heart ’. Jer.
29:13.
Let us as individuals and as
a nation seek God and pray to
Him in faith and He will save
us. Let us pray.
