Brief comment (printed on page 389):
"Prof. J. Taft, whose portrait we make our frontispiece, is the respected dean of the Dental Department of the University of Michigan. Both as editor of The Dental Register and as the presiding genius of this University, he has shown and still shows remarkable qualities as a dental educator. Probably there is no man living more popular in the dental profession of the West."
