J. Clarke (Publisher, 1922) P. B. ADAMS, D. D. S. Dr. P. B. Adams, successfully engaged in the practice of dental surgery in Stuttgart, comes to the southwest from Indiana, his birth having occurred in Clark county, that state, in 1883. His parents were S. F. and Elizabeth (Conn) Adams, the former a veteran of the Civil war, having served in defense of the Union. Spending his youthful days under the parental roof, the son pursued his early education in the public schools of his native county and later continued his studies in the Danville State Normal College. Having decided upon the practice of dentistry as a life work, he next entered the Cincinnati Dental College, from which he was graduated with the class of 1916. The opportunities of the southwest attracted him, and he began practice in the Ozark mountain region in the northwestern part of this state, opening his office at Heber Springs, in Cleburne county. There he remained until 1918, when he came to Stuttgart and through the intervening period of four years has steadily followed his profession here, building up a practice of gratifying and substantial proportions. He has a well-appointed office, supplied with all of the machinery and multitudinous delicate little instruments which constitute the equipment of a dentist, and his mechanical skill and ingenuity, combined with his scientific knowledge, has made him one of the capable dental surgeons of this part of the state. In addition to his professional interests he is the owner of six hundred and eighty acres of land in Faulkner county, devoted to timber, and he also has eighty acres in Arkansas county. Dr. Adams was married to Miss Edith O. Badger of Charlestown, Indiana, a daughter of Louis Badger. They are well known in Stuttgart, where they have gained many friends and where the hospitality of their home is greatly enjoyed. Dr. Adams is a member of the Masonic fraternity, and the beneficent spirit upon which this order is founded finds expression in his relations with his fellowmen.
