CHARLES W. OUTCALT.
In no profession within the last half century has there been
as rapid development and progress as in the profession of
dentistry. Rapid strides have been made toward
perfection and with the most advanced thought and methods of
the day Dr. Charles Willoughby Outcalt has kept in
touch in the conduct of his office in Lancaster, where a
large and constantly increasing patronage is accorded him.
A native of Lancaster, he was born in 1864, where he
grew to manhood, acquiring his literary education in the
public schools. He is a son of Jesse and Catherine
(Davis) Outcalt, also natives of this county. On
putting aside his text books, from which he had acquired his
literary education, the Doctor began preparing for the
profession of dentistry, becoming a student in the office of
Dr. Palmiter, of Lancaster, under whose direction he
not only obtained theoretical knowledge but also much
practical experience. In 1887 he matriculated in the
dental department of the University of Pennsylvania and in
that institution was graduated. Immediately afterward
he returned to Lancaster, and his success here sets at
naught the old adage that a prophet is never without honor
save in his own country, for in the city in which his entire
life has been passed Dr. Outcalt has built up a large
business. He is thoroughly conversant with and in
touch with the most improved methods of workmanship, has all
the most improved instruments and appliances for advancing
his efficiency in practice and the excellent character of
his work has enabled him to enjoy a practice that is
constantly growing in numbers.
In 1895 Dr. Outcalt was united in marriage to
Miss Adelaide Cousega, of Lancaster, and their circle of
friends here is very extensive, while their own home is
noted for a gracious and pleasing hospitality. The
Doctor is a comparatively young man, possessed of untiring
energy and laudable ambition and already is so widely known
as a prominent and representative member of the dental
fraternity that he is a valued contributor of many journals
and dental magazines. His observations and experiments
have broadened his knowledge concerning the profession and
its work, and his original research is of acknowledged
benefit to the dental fraternity throughout the world.
