BRUCE ALBERT DICKSON, D. D. S. 

	Dr. Bruce Abert Dickson, one of the leading representatives of the
dental profession in Moose Jaw, was born in Freelton, Ontario, on the
16th of August, 1885, a son of W. C. and Catherine (Gilbert) Dickson
both of whom were natives of that province. For many years the father
was engaged in the grocery and meat business in the east, but he now
resides on a farm in Ontario.  The mother has passed away.  W.C.
Dickson is a Mason in his fraternal affiliations and politically is ranked as
a Liberal.  He has held some of the minor local offices, such as reeve
and councillor. As both he and his wife were stanch Presbyterians,
seven children were reared in that faith.
	Bruce Albert Dickson is the sixth child in order of birth in his father's
family. After obtaining a general education in the Hamilton Collegiate
Institute he spent three years in Dakota, where he ran a store. At the
end of that period he returned to Canada to enter the Royal College of
Dental Surgery in Toronto, where he took a four-year course and
ated as a member of the class of 1912. The same year that he received
his diploma the young dentist came out to Moose Jaw to open an office
the practice of his profession and has been here ever since. He has made
consistent progress in his work, so that he now enjoys a large and grati-
fying practice.  In 1919 he took an extended vacation in order to
graduate work under Dr. Cummer, who is very prominently known in
dental circles-a course of study that has proven very helpful to him in
his subsequent work.
	In 1915 Dr. Dickson was married to Miss Florence E. McFadyen,
was born in Brandon, Manitoba, where she obtained her education.
Dr. and Mrs. Dickson have two children, a son and a daughter, William John
and Bettie Eline. The family is affiliated with the Presbyterian church,
while Dr. Dickson is known in Masonic circles as a York Rite Mason and
a Shriner.  He is particularly fond of baseball and follows that sport
intently all during the season. Aside from his family interest:~ and de-
voting the necessary amount of time to recreation and exercise, this busy
dentist centers all of his energies on his profession. He came to the con-
clusion long ago that nothing worth while can be gained without industry
and has been following this precept with such a will that he now enjoys
an enviable position in his profession and may confidently look forward
to a future as full of promise as his past has been of achievement.
