Overview

Excerpt from The Bulletin of the North Carolina Dental Society, Vol. 19: Containing the Proceedings of the Sixty-First Annual Meeting, June 17, 18, 19, 1935; Blowing Rock, North Carolina Gentlemen, this is a beautiful place; it is a restful place. It is a place where you can look out over the mountains and realize that there is peace, good-will, _-and happiness in the world. I hope that you, who have to meet so many disagreeable things in the practice of your profession, often criticism, ever conscious that while you are doing a wonderful good, there is pain, will go out on the veranda this evening and watch the shadows as they creep up the valleys, as they creep up Grandfather, and look at the beautiful sunset over Grandfather. I feel sure that you will have a feeling of peace and happiness and deep satisfaction come over you. It is altogether different from the restlessness Of the waves of the ocean; it is a quiet peacefulness. So, I hope that as all of you men go back to your work that some of this peace and calm and strength and confidence of the mountains will go with you. You have here many distinguished men to speak for you - you men who mean so much to the moral, the spiritual, and the intel lectual part of our citizenship. So often you have a chance to speak a wise word In a sure place, and we value your services in this State, and in the name Of the Mayor I welcome you most heartily. We are glad to have you with us and whatever we can do to further your interest, call upon us and We will answer. If it is possible, I hope that you will drive over the mountain road to Linville. I have walked it often. There is so much to see when you walk, and when you go in an automobile, you are so apt to miss it. If you will drive slowly, however, and look care fully there are many things. That will come to your soul. You will see the beauty of the mountains, the glory of God's handiwork.
