J. Clarke (Publisher, 1922) L. E. DAVIS, D. D. S. For fourteen years Dr. L. E. Davis has been successfully engaged in the practice of dentistry and for a considerable portion of this period has resided in Fort Smith, where he maintains a well appointed office and enjoys a liberal patronage. Dr. Davis is a native of Michigan, his birth having occurred in Macomb county, in 1880, his parents being C. F. and Catherine (Sullivan) Davis. His boyhood days were spent under the parental roof and his early education was largely acquired in the public schools of Detroit, Michigan. He afterward went to Chicago, where he entered the National Medical University as a student in the dental department and there prepared for his chosen life work. He was graduated with the class of 1907, and making his way to the southwest, located at Fort Smith, Arkansas, in 1908. Later he removed to Earl, this state, and there he remained in the active practice of his profession for seven years, but returned to Fort Smith in 1915 and has here continued to the present time. He has a well appointed office, splendidly equipped with dental appliances, and he shows the utmost ingenuity and skill in the use of the multitudinous delicate little instruments which form the equipment for dental practice. Moreover, he has intimate and accurate knowledge of the scientific principles underlying his work and has met with excellent success, as evidenced in the liberal patronage now accorded him. Dr. Davis was married in 1909 to Miss Ora E. York. They have gained many friends during the period of their residence in Fort Smith, occupying an enviable position in those social circles where intelligence and true worth are accepted as passports into good society. Dr. Davis has never regretted his determination to come to the southwest, for here he has made a creditable name and place for himself in connection with his professional activity and at all times he has stood with the vanguard in the adoption of improved methods which have been brought to light through scientific research and investigation.
