Twenty A 0 THE IRIS l The Award ol the Distinguished Service Foundation of Qptometry ' The winning of the Distinguished Service Foundation medal by Dr. Albert Fitch seems to us to be of importance because it was conferred by a group of gentlemen who 'have been prominent in the profession for many years. They have varied perspectives of the profession for some are scien- tists while others are interested in the art of the practice of their profession. ' Dr. Fitch chooses to look upon the award as a valued recognition and honor to Pennsylvania State College of Optometry, and those who have sac- rificed along with him to produce it, rather than a recognition of personal attainment. Together they started under tremendous handicaps and labored to make the College what is probably the foremost optometric educational institution in the United States. 0 That the members of the Foundation chose to present the 1934 award to Dr. Fitch proves that the leaders in our profession value very highly the latest trend in optometric education-they subscribe to the training given students at this College. We like to believe that this token is an index of the attitude of the profession in general which would mean that both the older and the newer members of the group are in harmony as to ideals and methods. This is a happy thought for very often there tends to arise between the older practitioners and the recent graduates an unwarranted antagonism. The event which we have discussed tends to wipe out antagonism and to replace it with a unity of thought and purpose making for the future progress. We are now all travelling in the same direction.
