days when cholera scourged the land, and Homeopathic treatment proved its efficacy again and again in that dread malady. VVe shall not stop to tell of the foundation of Homeopathic institutions nor of the distinguished men who built up the Homeopathic tradition in the West. Let us conclude by recording that whatever else was brilliant in the Homeo-pathic his- tory of California, it becomes dim beside the gift of Dr. Garth VV. Boericke to Phila- delphia and especially to the Hahnemann Nfedical College and Hospital. There is not a man in the Class of 1930 or in the entire school who does not think well of California on this account. Coming East with Dr. Boericke we now have to wait a while ere we see rising in supreme stateliness and strength out of the roaring maelstrom of the citv a new symbol of the healing art. Here we find the latest lines and the most glorious so far penned in Homeopathy's historical pages. The ink is scarcely dry that tells of this most recent venture, and can anyone question its established success? A final plunge into the past and we are finished. Thirteen years after the establishment of the Allentown Academy, again there was no institution in the world where Homeopathy was taught, but in 1848, a meeting at which Drs. Con- stantine Hering, Walter VVilliamson, and Jacob Jeanes were present, resulted in the foundation of the Homeopathic Medical College of Pennsylvania. So bitter was the antagonism of the old school that no effort was spared to thwart the advancement of the new system. Those men who were interested in Hahnemannis teachings were either forced to remain silent or expect to be refused admission to an allopathic col- lege or hospital. Accordingly the need of an Homeopathic medical college was direg and the meeting in 1848 proved to be the moment of exciting force which started the dramatic climb of Homeopathy to a position of preeminence in Philadelphia. Here we have presented the alpha and omega of Homeopathy in this country, and what lies between is yours to read and mine to recommend. This omega, how- ever, is only the ending to date. The moving finger writes, and having writ moves on , and thus the historian's task is never ended. Let me borrow from an unfailing source in concluding that Homeopathy is destined to perform an act whereof what,s past is prologue. Fourteen
