Dear Sir:— I notice in the last issue of the Terrace News the following: ““Why do the dental pracitionera neg- lect Terrace as they do? Surely there should be plenty of work to justify periodical visits.” In explanation to those who read the above and probably who wondered why, I might say that Terrace has not in any sense of the word been neglected. Pexsonally for over eighteen months 1 visited Terrace every Saturday and Sunday. These trips never did in any way pay expenses, but owing to the these tripsup but later dropped them to once a month but even then found them to be.an ahsolute failure. Since then I have only been coming at ir- regular intervals or as I thought was required, but on figuring up my total business done in Terrace I find a large loss over the period of five yeara that I have been visiting there.- |, Other dentists have tried it but on fo occasion can I remember one ever ere 1 ——— been troubled by different delusions and dreams. Some have taken ar allegori- cal and spiritual. form and others have .|been violent, sudden dislikes for and feara of people ‘hitherto regarded with the utmost love and affection. At other times she has tried to trace to herself the blame for the series of accidents which befell us last year, with the result that she became firmly convinced that some great sacrifice was due from herself in compensation. All these feelings we naturally attributed to the fact that she was in a rundown, nervous condition. She had not regained’ her normal health and spirits after the operations on her broken arm before my other sister’s accident and later m own came on her, meaning, of course, agp | SHOCKS and further worry and anxiety. I entertained no serious idea of any an derangement until Friday last, when a friend suggested that some actions were becoming unreasonable, However, I saw my sister on Friday and again on Saturday, and she seerned much better and in good gpirits, and quite approved the plans I suggested for the next few weeks. Now in the face of what has later transpired 1 can have no doubt that her mental balance was in some way affected, We could not at first think this possible, as there seemed no reason why it should be. She has always been remarkably clear- headed and ealm, and been always so successful in any intellectual work she has undertaken. Recently she referred to an accident she met when a girl by stepping from a car before it had stop- ped, which threw her to the ground and rendered her unconscious for a time. Apparently it left no permanent injury and the matter had been forgotten unt! she herself mentioned it, I-now think the fall on the ice last Christmas she has never been quite the same since. making more than one trip to Terrace Every dentist in Rupert have heen urged to visit but all so far declined. Then there is the inconvenience of guch a trip. To a dentist who is ac- customed to every modern convenience. at his‘ right hand having to set up a travelling outfit in a room that is ab- solutely impossible as:a dental office, but atill the people expect 100 per cent dentistry. Further he is neglecting his city patients while away on these trips and if trouble should. agise with them while their dentist is away they are not only inconvenienced but embarrassed Again there is not a loyal spirit dis- played by a number of the local peuple to anyone willing to visit the district. Dentistr is a work that must be fol- lowed up in a great many cases and regularly cared for overa period of time, these cases are very difficult to attend to in a district such as Terrace, but those who do not realize this seem to take a keen delight in telling every- one they meet their troubles and blam- ing the dentist for all their misfortune, whereas if they were in the city they would be willing to many times before being quite comfortable but make no complaint, I must say that a preat many of the wailers are those who have not paid their dentist and use the complaint as a means of not paying. Then again if the dentist derived any actual benefit by having those who he attended in their distress come to him when they come to the city it would make a difference, but it seems to be the: reverse and you find those afore- mentioned seeking other service when they come to town. Possibly after all it is not so much that the dentiste have neglected Ter- race as Terrace has neglected the eit) dentists, Thanking you for the space Mr. Edi- ton Iam, Yours truly, ; Dr, A, H. BAYNE. Prince Rupert, Feb. 19,1922. The Editor. ‘Dear Sir.—Aas I understand a letter. left by my late’:sister;.Miss Nellie | Toombs, has already. ‘become public |property, I should iikb to ask you ea night--and they. hada first-class publish a few further facts connecte ‘with the cake , Since last ‘Christmas my sister “has I consider this letter is due from,me in order tocorrect the impression created by the letter my sister left. necessary both on Mra. Thomasson’s account, whe is absolutely happy in her home and work at the camp, and on Mr. Van Metre’s account, For a few days in January my sister was engaged to Mr. Van Metre and was very happy about it. Then one of the strange, changeabie moods came over her and she asked to have the engagement temporarily breken. This Mr. Van Metre instantly agreed to and later at my sister’s request granted a full release. In every way Mr. Van Metre has shown the utmost courtesy and consideration and given no grounds whatever for the fear expressed in the note my sister left. On the contrary, he has helped in every way possible to ease her mind, thinking as we did that this condition of mind was the result of her nervous breakdown.. In fact, a letter now in my posseasion from Mr. Van Meter to my sister shows absolute- ty that she had no reason whatever to fear him. those friends who turned out so rapid- ly to our help Saturday night, and thank. all for their sympathy, too, With but one exception, the happy marriage of my other sister, Canada has been one long series of accident, struggle and misfortune, but this loss of one so loved and loving, one who has alwaya stood for what is right and brave and true, who came here with such high hopes and helpiag in the work of turning aome little corner of wilder- ness into use and-order seems more than we can bear..
