LITERATURE ilaistnrp nf the Cllbinagu Hlehin The seed that was sown in January, 1916, by the Class of 1917 had, at last, ripened into a wonderful flower. Like all other hot-house plants, it had to be carefully nursed so that it might not perish before reaching its maturity. If you will allow me the privilege of retrospection, I Will freshen your memory on a few details concerning the Chicago Medic. In December, 1915, Mr. ,R. S. Cook brought before the class a suggestion, that we publish a monthly magazine, in interest of the students, faculty and alumni of the Chicago College of Medicine and Surgery. The idea stimulated class action, with the result that the following editorial staff was appointed: H. Buxbaum, Editor-in-Chief, G. F. Johnston and R. S. Cook, Associate Editors, Harry Lieffers, Business Manager Clater trans- ferred to R. S. Cookj, Lena M. Stewart, Secretary and Treasurer, D. H. Levin- thal, Art Editor, and Jos. Finberg, Staff Photographer. - The faculty endorsed the publication not only financially but morally, offering numerous suggestions and medical articles. Four issues were published, each being better than the previous one. Although this magazine was in many ways a success, it was some wanting financially. I wish to take this opportunity to publicly thank our genial College Librarian, Mrs. A. E. Smith, for the valuable assistance and interest she displayed in our behalf. - , , In conclusion, I wish to state that a project, so nobly begun, shouldnot have been abandoned by the present Junior Class, and hope that each successive class will follow our footsteps and profit by the errors that must of necessity occur in the initial attempt. g HENRY BUXBAUM.
