The gates of the LICHONIAN are now bared to the Board of Editors for further revision, but are accessible to a more critical body, the Q i readers. The minor errors, which were invisible to the eyes of the Editors, will no doubt reveal themselves under the careful observation of the micro- scope of criticism. At present, the pages lie beyond our reach. This volume has a double purpose. One, to chronicle the events of the past year, and secondly, to make known to the outside world, the progress and endeavors of this College and Hospital. All of Brooklyn has been acquainted with the past and present achievements of The Long Island College Hospital, and has been called upon to assist in not only maintaining the institution, but to aid in increasing its facilities, usefulness, efficiency and -scope of work. lVe want The Long Island College Hospital to be the medical center, not only of Brooklyn, but of the state and, if possible, of the country. After much hesitation because of the work it would entail, we decided to insert short write-ups of the faculty members. VVe feel that it is a distinct addition to the Book, and wish to take this opportunity to thank our Professors for their active interest and prompt response to our inquiries and requests. lVe regret that, notwith- standing our efforts, this section is incomplete. As you peruse these pages, gentle reader, we trust you will never forget that everything found herein bas been written in a kindly spirit. It is unnecessary to explain that in a work of this nature, authenticity is often sacrificed for the sake of humorg hence, always remember that beneath the raillery and occasional sarcasm there is a profound respect for our beloved Alma lVIater and a sincere feeling of good fellowship for all of our schoolmates.

THE LONG ISLAND COLLEGE HOSVPITAL BROOKLYN. New YORK ' December 26, 1922 To the Students of the Long Island College Hospital: COLLEGE OF MEDICINE As President of The Long Island College Hospital I welcome the opportunity of presenting to the students through the Lichonian my best wishes for a successful career. I regard this year book as one of the splendid institu- tions of the School in which we are all so interested. Each year as it appears I take the greatest pride in referring to it before the Board of Regents and calling their attention to the interest in the institution on the part of the students which its publication indicates. There are very few books of the same type which compare with it in attractiveness and in the information which it conveys. At this season.of the year our minds are turned to the class which has just entered the institution and to the class which within the next few months will pass out as graduates. The Seniors have spent four years in preparing them- selves for the practice of medicine. They know how faithfully and thoroughly they have been trained and they owe a debt of loyalty to the institution which cannot be measured by money or by time. I am asking, therefore, from them extraordinary devotion to the interest of an institution which is so bene- ficient in character and so useful in the training of physicians, To the Freshman I would offer a word of congratulation. From them we expect not only interest in their studies but a resolve to maintain the scholarly record and splendid reputation of the institution of which they are now students. I would hardly dare to place on record my own prophesy as to the future of The Long Island College Hospital. Located in the Borough of Brooklyn as its only medical school, sur- rounded by hospitals abounding in clinical material, our School, should develop into one of the great medical centers of the country, not only caring for the undergraduate but through its research in the graduate field and its interest in the further training of practitioners, standing forth in a unique way among the institutions of reputation in this country and in the world.
