or dental magazines or textbooks—old or new—to the office of the American Dental Association, No. 5 North Wabash Avenue, Chicago, Illinois,—marked, “For Japanese Relief,” with your name attached, and they will be forwarded to the proper authorities in Japan. Every one of our members has a few dollars to spare—some of them have many—everyone has instruments and dental literature lying around his office. Do not lose a moment, but send them in. No matter how small the contribution, it will do untold good at this time. Let us start the year out by doing a kindly, generous, and benevolent act. Let us help Japan, and both countries will be the better for it. We shall publish the names of the donors in subsequent issues.
THE NIPPON DENTAL COLLEGE Ichigoro Nakahara, Sc.D., President. Tokyo, Japan, September 10, 1923. To the Dentists of America : What a tremendous earthquake and fire! About a hundred thou sand lives were lost and over the half of the city was crushed and burnt to the ground. Our schoolhouse, library and hospital, which had been completed after 15 years of great effort and the sum of 750,000 yen, were burnt to ashes. The picture shows the remains of the newly built hospital. The loss of our school, which was the one of pride among our dental world, is a great blow upon Oriental dental education. So, I wish to build the school again but I feel sorry that I cannot do it myself as I have lost even my clothes, as well as my house. As I believe that there is no boundary for learning, I wish to re build the school with the help and sympathy of our brethren. I beseech you, therefore, to help us to carry out our purpose for the sake of the Oriental dental domain. I shall be much obliged to you if you try to collect some contri bution among your fraternity—whatever they may offer—cash, books, engine, apparatus or anything. I must apologize for the trouble I am giving you, for which, how ever, you will probably excuse me, on account of the importance of the affair. Yours truly and fraternally, (Signed) I. Nakahara.
