H. S. NEEL, D. D. S.
    The dental fraternity of Stuttgart finds a young but progressive
representative of the profession in Dr. H. S. Neel, who is one of the native
sons of this state, his birth having occurred at Bearden in 1893. He is a son of
J. R. and Esther (Yeager) Neel, the former born near Princeton, Arkansas, while
the latter was born at Bearden. The grandfather in the paternal line was James
Neel, who on coming to this state settled at Princeton.

    Dr. Neel pursued his education in the Brock Springs Academy of Arkansas and
in preparation for the practice of dentistry entered the University of Tennessee
and was graduated from the dental department with the D. D. S. degree in 1915.
He taught school at Huttig, Arkansas, in that year and then entered upon the
active practice of dentistry at Delight, Arkansas, where he remained until 1916,
when he removed to Stuttgart. Here he opened an office but in 1917 abandoned his
professional interests in order to join the army. He enlisted in the Medical
Corps, went to Port Riley and was afterward sent overseas, going to Nantes,
Prance, where he was stationed during the period of his foreign service. When
the country no longer needed his aid he returned to the United States and once
more resumed practice in Stuttgart, where his ability is fast winning him
recognition, until his practice is now gratifying and gives every evidence of
future growth.

    Dr. Neel was married to Miss Orpha Hill, a native of Streator, Illinois.
Fraternally he is a Mason and that he has advanced far in the order is indicated
in his connection with the Mystic Shrine. He likewise belongs to the Benevolent
Protective Order of Elks and enjoys in large measure the high and friendly
regard of his fellow members of these fraternities.
