HOLDEN FAREWELL TO DEAN HOLDEN After nineteen years as Dean of the College of Osteopathy, the pressure of ill-health and a desire to devote his entire time to his private practice has forced Dr. Edgar O. Holden to resign. Dr. Holden graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1916 and in 1922 became a graduate of the Osteopathic College. In 1924, Dr. Holden became Dean and immediately plunged himself into educational work. For many years in addition to his work as Dean, he served as Superintendent of the Osteopathic Hospital, Chairman of the Board of Osteopathic Hospitals and also as National Hospital Inspec- tor of the American Osteopathic Association. In recognition of his nationally known work as author, lecturer and educator, Dr. Holden was given the Degree of Doctor of Letters by the College in 1940. To Dean Holden, we say good luck, good health and thanks for a good job, well done. Synapsis Staff. GREETINGS TO THE STUDENTS OF P.C.O. With the closing of the current year, P.C.O. will have rounded out forty-five years of teaching of the Osteopathic philosophy and my own private practice of that art and science parallels this period. I, accord- ingly, feel that I may be justified by virtue of my long experience in practice, in assuring you of a sense of security in the choice of your prospective profession. Forty-five years is a long time in the pursuit of one following or service. But it is not too long if one seeks to acquaint himself with the possibilities of an unfolding and evolving science or engagement. Every day new problems and involvements present themselves especially in the therapeutic field and if you are conscientious and sincere in solving them you will become more and more proficient in your service and correspond- ingly more and more a blessing to humanity. And to all of you who are conscientiously convinced that the great- est therapeutic truth lies in the Osteopathic philosophy, to you I say persevere to the end. Our Osteopathic Colleges have achieved a high degree of educational efficiency and I am pleased to advise you that a survey of the remuneration of the physicians of the several schools of therapy shows that the Osteopathic physicians' average from practice overtops the emolument of all others by 2 5 to 50 percent. Always keep in mind that the Osteopathic philosophy is founded upon the biological axiom that normal physiological life represents bio- logical cell response to normal environment conditions; that disease repre- sents biological cell response to abnormal environmental conditions; there- fore the cure of disease is to restore and the prevention of disease is to maintain normal cell environment. Also please remember that the Osteo- pathic therapeutic procedure embraces all such practices as help to restore normality without impairing vitality. Students of the P.C.O.,—I salute you. I congratulate you on your choice of profession. I wish you Godspeed. After forty-five years of experience, and if I were to live my life over again, I would again choose to be an Osteopathic Physician. Sincerely Yours, Co-founder Dr. O. J. Snyder. \ DR. O. J.
