A new building is planned with location in the southwest corner of Sixth and Spruce Streets, Newahll[1], having dental education facilities.
Preventive dental education has been carried on by Dr. Ross from the first by talks at schools, literature dissemination, motion picture showing to P.T.A.
groups and by the medium of the newspaper.
Underprivileged children below the age of twelve may avail themselves of the Dental Clinic at San Fernando Health Center, provided they have attended
previous years successfully for inspection. This privilege was obtained for the Newhall school through the Newhall Kiwanis Club.
