DAVID P. PROCTOR, M. D.
     Dr. David P. Proctor, engaged in the practice of medicine and surgery in
Carlisle, comes to Arkansas from the neighboring state of Missouri and is one of
the young physicians whom many an older representative of the profession might
well envy. In touch with the most progressive methods in the practice of
medicine and surgery, he is making steady progress in his chosen life work and
his ability is attested by many. He was born in Palmyra, Missouri, in 1898, a
son of E. M. and Frances (Forsythe) Proctor, the former also a native of
Palmyra, Missouri, while his parents were from Kentucky. The mother was born in
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and was brought to the west at an early day. E. M.
Proctor is a successful lumberman who has conducted business along that line for
an extended period. To him and his wife were born four children.

    In the acquirement of his education Dr. Proctor attended the public schools
of Carlisle, his parents having removed to this place during his boyhood, and
passing through consecutive grades, he completed the high school course. He
afterward returned to his native state and attended the William Jewell College,
while later he became a student in the University of Arkansas, in which he spent
two years. He then entered upon preparation for his chosen profession as a
medical student in Tulane University fit New Orleans, and there won his M. D.
degree. Immediately afterward he located for practice in Carlisle, where he has
since remained, and his ability is attested by his growing practice. He is very
careful and conscientious in the performance of his professional duties and most
thorough in diagnosing his cases.

    Dr. Proctor was united in marriage to Miss Mildred Birkhead, a daughter of
Dr. Birkhead of Cabot, Arkansas. They occupy an enviable social position and
their own home is noted for its warm-hearted hospitality.
