The author discussed A case report on osteomyelitis of tbu mandible was presented. the methods of treatment of the disease in vogue fifteen years ago and the methods of treatment in vogue today. The value of penicillin therapy in the chronic stage of the disease was questioned. He agreed that penicillin therapy had value in the acute stage of the disease (cellulitis), but he stressed the point that in the early stages one was not always sure they had a true ease of osteomyelitis since there was often no positive roentgenographic evidence. All cases of cellulitis do not end in osteomyelitis. Therefore, recent reports in the literature concerning the value of penicillin therapy in the treatment of osteomyelitis must, be analyzed carefully before acceptance. T. J. C.

The author presents a case of congenital malformation of the maxilla in a WOIWUI 45 years of age. The palate had formed but the alveolar c.rests and premolar and molar teeth were absent, leaving on each side a cavity the size of a small walnut. The premaxillary part of the maxilla was normal, containing the canines as well as the incisor teeth. The treatment consisted of a prosthetic appliance attached to which were two obturators for the lateral cavities. It was very satisfactory, having good adhesion, and was worn without causing any trauma. K. H. T. Double Clefts of the Lip. J. B. Brown, Obst. 85: 20, July, X47.
