In response to a manifestly growing demand for an institution ui u.-,u-iii)atliic instruction, Dr. O. J. Snyder, leading- a small band of votive disciples in 1899. formally founded and IcQall}- chartered the Philadcl]ihia College of Osteopathy. Through the ensuing years, growth has been uniformly progressive.

I ¥ ■ E )l four years cu have lived in your own distinct microcosm-cuUege, more or less unmindful of the world outside. Your interests have heen inten- sive; your tendencies. intros])ective. Commencement marks the drop from your tiny world back to earth again. Here at the Philadelphia College you have learned the need of application and study; you have felt the stimulus of scientific training. I ' .ut if you have not learned the principles of true democracy, then college for you has been a failure. Toleration without patronage, the abilit} ' to see things through another man ' s eyes, a sincere outlook on the world with principle, not policy, as a basis — these are more necessary than anatomy and chemistry, and more potent tlian a strong back and arms. Of the current views of life we select the highest and strive to transcend the average thought and tone. Education is thus a distinctly personal work and varies between wide extremes of effectiveness and worth. Xo state is any stronger than its individual citizens; its physical power is the sum total of their fitness and readiness ; its mental worth is reckoned by the amount of their diligence and effort; its moral strength is the direct result of their attitude one toward another. The reward of your diligence is the commission to go forth and serve, ' our labor will be the labor of love for mankind and your purpose the betterment of humanity. Go where duty calls. It is the end and aim of the highest life. Graduation is the time of Farewell to Alma Mater and college associates and associations ; yet. there have been welded bonds of loyalty and mutual interests too mighty to be torn asunder. Where your treasure is, tlu-ru will your heart be also. You leave behind you a Faculty sincerely interested in your welfare. You are moving forward to join with them in devotion to worthy ideals and in service to others. May loyalty to . lnia .Matrr and duty to mankind attend your journey! De. x Edg.vr O. IIoloen. , 47 oYNAP: iS William S. Spaeth Secretary Paul C. JIengle Historian P Harold L. Coi.purn President Lawrence R. Tkvmblll Senior Class History iir rrH only a few more months ahead of us, we begin to reahze how difficult fly it is to apply the knowledge we have so painfully acquired in the past four years of digging and grinding. Even now faint recollections of the first encounters with Anatomy fleet across our minds and slight traces of dissection room odors register in the proper centers of the encephaion. Long- since have we ceased to throw out our chests at the expense of several vest buttons, when our patients call us Doctor. ' ' Of the eighty-five of our matriculating class, there remain sixty-one, includ- ' J i ing a number who have joined us from sister institutions. During our Sopho- iV more year the I ' reshman greetings were furthered and regulations were levied, (jnl This will long Ije remembered Ijy many of our class as well as by the Class of 1926, upon whom regulations were imposed. It was during this time that an unfore- seen class fight took place in the neighborhood of Spring Garden Street, between the college on the south, I ' hi Sigma Gamma Fraternity House on the north, and the Iota Tau .Sigma House a few squares west of these. It was ai memorable day when the Class of 1926 laifl siege to the Class of 1925, who were barricaded . , in a Fraternity House at 203S Spring Garden Street. All classes were automati- (ji cally suspended for the day antl the contest lasted from early in the morning until late in the afternoon, when it was abruptly ended by the I ' acultv of the College. The Junior From was established by our class and has been diligently carried on by the Class (A 1926. SO ia ' , During our third year, Carl I ' isclier succeeded in winning the intercollegiate tennis championship. It was also during our third year that one member of the class was married. During tlic following summer, three more men followed suit. k-d In the fourth year, distinction was gained through winning the interclass H Mi ■d ,--, „- „.. „ 11; baseball championshi]). In this year the first extracurricular Senior Society was loi formffl in thf rnllffi ' p witli n tntal nf tfn rli,-irtpr mpniliprc a f formed in the college with a total of ten charter members. There have been many improvements in the college buildings, classrooms and laboratories within recent years as well as an increase in the number of Faculty members, all of which have inspired us to do better in preparing our- selves for the great work which lies so short a distance before us. ' In passing, we believe that our class has contributed loyally to the history of i Y our college. May she carry her common sense, her wisdom, her enterprise, her -f ' ' sense of duty, her every virtue into new fields and prove that what has occurred f within the college walls is but the merest forecast of her future labors in the professional world. % I s v; ti ' i EDWIN J.

Sheperla i Junior Class History XX SEPTEMER, 1922, the ship of the present Junior Class sailed into the port of P. C. O., the first lap of their four-year venture on Osteopathic Seas. Within the Port of Freshmania, our officers were elected for the first year : I ' aul H. Hatch, President. Ralph A. Pierpont, ' ice-President. Dorothy Galbraith, Secretary. McClellan F. llashline. Treasurer. The seas laid calm before us, stretching- away to the far horizon and promising much. Three years iiave we been upon the Seas of Osteopathic training ' with many heavy, weary, stormy nights passed through, some of the crew becoming- discour- aged and deserting at intermediate points and ports. Most of us, however, have weathered the storms like true sailors, and as the future lo dms before us we are determined to stick by the ship until she comes safely In anchor in llu ' redeeming Port of Graduation. As we swung into the Ice of P. C. O., there were some swaggering pirates who attacked us and essayed to enslave us. They tried to make us wear rakish clothes anrl do uncivilized acts; hut our crew to a man rebelled. There were several lively skirmishes with a mutual list of casualties and a liberal distribu- tion of iodine aiul methylene blue. A rush was decided upon to determine whether we shoud go free or remain enslaved to the Sophs. The night before the .set day, several of our crew were seized and placed in chains, and dci)rived %m 74 (jf their essential L;arnieiUs in tlie camj) of ihe enemy. The next day our men attacked the stronjj;hold of the Sophs and such flighting ensued tliat the officials of the port called a halt to it . . . just before the Sophomores were about to be scalped. In the ensuing months, a i reat deal of entertainment was afforded us by our late enemies and we in return acted as host at a dance of peace. At the end of the year we set sail for Sophomorania. As we arrived a closely scudding ship was sighted, heading for Freshmania. We halted them without bloodshed and upon learning their intentions, admonished them and instructed them in what to wear and how to conduct themselves when they arrived. They, fearing for their safety, lived up to every rule and regulation ... a peace- loving tribe they were. While in Sophomorania, we elected to succeed our first staff: Paul G. Norris, President. Irma A. Davis. ' ice-President, Dorothy Galbraith, Secretary. i) ' A Syl J. O ' Lirien. Treasurer. J I j We passed through se veral severe storms and many high seas in the second ' ' year, but they but strengthened our confidence in our leaders and enhanced our determination to stand together as a unit. As we left the port of Sophomorania, and set sail for Junioria we realized ■ yj what lay behind us and were uncertain of the seas ahead, but were confident that : ' f, a real fighting crew had been developed. Through the stormy days of the recent ) } ' . past we never once lowered our sails, making progress even when the waves : ' ■. were the highest. The officers so nobly leading us this year are : ' ' ' i William O. Kingsbury, President. Jean L. Sheperla, ice-President. Robert R. Lewis, Secretary. 7S-{ Syl J. 0 ' P rien, Treasurer. Jt A ' As we near the port of Seniora, we realize that the shoals and undercurrents are not yet entirely behind us and even after we become citizens of that promising • j world of Osteopathy, we will be called upon to show more of that real seaman- X . shi]5 which has so marked our jiast. We are now standing in the bow with winds i ' , ' . of the future filling our sails, looking for the light of the promised land. i f- n m 5y I. A-; It i DONALD K. ACTON Philadelphia, Pa.

In fraternal retaliation, liowevcr, we trimmed the Sophs in an impromptu baseball game, and we did it again when the superiority nf the class at the national game was requestioned. On November 23, 1923, at the Hotel Adelphia, the class initiated what we hoped would be an annual Frosh banquet. . t this affair the heretofore unknown officers of the class were introduced. During the Hospital Drive, ' 27 redisplayed its merits by an energetic solicita- tion of donations and by donating SIOOO as a class. The athletic su]Mcmacy of the class was again displayed when ' 27 won tlie interclass relay cham])ionship at the Annual Track Meet. Then a matrimonial epidemic broke out in P. C. O. The siege raged along and claimed many victims — may they ever be so infected. The Glee Club and Poverty Dance were the bright lights of the second semester and were assurances to the college that ' 27 was a real class, with class. On September 11, alter a summer of leisure (for some), labor and brush- selling, the class reassenilicd and noted the ravages of that old iiarness maker, Cupid. Realizing tliat thv ' rn needed aiU ' iition, ' 27 ]iroceedeil to show them their place and soundly trounced their team and O ' l ' .rien, of ' 26, in tiie annual baseball game. Dr. Full-o ' -Pep D ' Eliscu arranged a tug-of-war and it was too easy. Let us rest now and pledge tlie Class of ' 25 to nauglit but tiic worthwhile in life. I ! i i ' 1, Sophomore Class Anderson.

Treasurer Joseph Hadjeliii Hisloria Freshman Class History ' EAIJZIXG that the success, if not the very existence, of our class was l f hu-,t, ' ' ely dependent on its early organization, a meeting was called for that purpose on September 25, 1924. This first class meeting was presided over by Air. A. H. Leeds, President of the Sophomore Class, who first of all took the opportunity of expressing the attitude of friendship and helpfulness which his class extended to the newcomers. Following Mr. Leeds ' welcome address was the election of class officers, and Mr. Florenz Smith was elected president; Mr. Harry Hessdorfer, vice-president; Miss Anna C. Sollenberger, secretary, and Mr. Walter Spill, treasurer. On the following day Mr. Herbert Talmage was chosen to represent the class on the . Ixoiic, and Miss Gladys Smiley and ] rr. George Prison were elected to rci ' )res(.-nt the Freshman Class on the Student Conncil. The next .steji in the formation of our class government was the adoption of a conslilutiun. . committee of seven, with Mr. George Darrohn as chairman, was appointed by the president to draw up and submit a constitution and neces- sarj ' by-laws. The committee labored long and conscientiously, and their efforts were rewarded by the acceptance of the class of our present Constitution on Octo- ber 30. On November 20 Mi-. T,oonard Smith was appointed scrgeant-at-arms. and at the sanu- tinu ' .Mr. jusipii Ihidjelhi was elected class historian. ■ M m M G I ' roni the very first, nothing but the most sanguinary hopes were held in the athletic possibiHties in the Class of ' 28. Even before the first class meeting, we met the Sophomore Class in a game of baseball, and some weeks later the two classes met in a tug-of-war at Strawberry Mansion. The time following this last event was given to basketball practice, and on December 6 we played the first game of the season with the Freshmen of the University of Pennsylvania. Four days later saw our team matched againsf that of the Germantown Academy, resulting in a score of 40-22 in favor of the College of Osteopathy Freshmen. This victory ' is of special significance, it being the first time in four years that our college has been able to defeat Germantown Academy. We met the Media High School on their own floor on December 18, and our last game was with the Swarthmore Freshmen. If we have not succeeded in defeating all our opponents, it must be remembereil that three of our, classmates, Messrs. Brad- ford, Laughton and Sullivan, are playing on the A ' arsity Team, where they are giving a good account of themselves. While our social activities have not kept pace with our athletics, there are many whisjjered rumors as to the pleasant surprises waiting for us this coming semester. On Friday, September 19, the Neuron Society gave the Fresh- man Class a reception and dance, which was greatly enjoyed. On Saturday, October 4, a goodly number of our class spent the day at Dr. Dufur ' s. Plans are now on foot to give a ball on the last day of examinations, to which all the students of the college are cordially invited. Our class membership a jiresent is si. ly-nine, nine of whom, we are privi- leged to say, are of the fair se.x. Of this number. Miss Beryl Arbuckle is a student from South Africa, having come to Phila(lel])hia expressly for the purpose of studying ostcoijathy in this college. 1( 2 PSIS, Freshman Class liV 1- , Barnes, Edmund C. . . rfT. .

HERE is no nobler human instinct, none of greater influence in shaping 4 ) the social and spiritual progress of the race, than that which is denoted by the word fraternalism. This may signify the broad relationship of men as members of the human family, of a race or a nation: or the more particular relationship of mutual loyalty, sympathy and helpfulness which binds those who are drawn together by reason of common beliefs, activities or aims. Christianity itself is a form of fraternalism, based upon the inseparable doctrines of the Fatherhood of God and the Urotherhood of Man. Jnnumerable secular societies and orders flourish as instrumentalities through which is expressed the human impulse to unite for beneficent purposes. .A notable manifestation of this spirit is seen in the widespread development o f the secret fraternities which constitute so prominent a feature of undergraduate life in the higher institutions of learning of the L ' nited States and Canada. The .system, which is peculiar to the colleges and universities of these two cotuitries, is as old as the American Republic. It was in 1776 that five students at William and Mary, in irginia, formed a social club designated by the Greek letters, Phi lieta Kappa. Four years later chapters were established at Yale and 1 lar- vard, and gradually other institutions took up the idea. For about a century, however. Phi Beta Kappa has been a non-secret and purely honorary organiza- tion, membership being an award for attainments in schloarship. Kapjia . lpha was the second Greek letter ,society to be formed; it originated just a hundred years ago. Thereafter the cult spread until there are today more ihan thirty fraternities for college men and nearly a score of sororities, with many hun- dreds of chapters and chajjter houses. These apparently insignificant organizations have strongly modified Ameri- can colle.ge life, and have always e.xerted a wide influence. Students join them at a susceptible age, and regard the obligations of membershi]3 with sentiments of profound loyalty. Young men of similar tastes and aspirations, drawn into close association in this manner, form enduring friendships. l ut so strong is the bond that loyalty to the fraternity not infrequently is rated above loyalty to the college or the real advantage of the individual. The system tends, more- over, to create the outlines (jf an aristocracy in ihr college community, a condi- tion which in some cases promotes disci])iiiU ' Iml in ulhcrs militates against it. Jealousies and animosities provoked by the arbitrary jjrocesses of selection and exclusion have occasionally altracled nnfavoral)le attention. In some ' states laws have been passed to prohibit college secret sociclics. and llic aulhoritics of 108 .makSIS. •■I . ■; , i ' li not a few institutions have likewise barred them. Each student entering Prince- ton is required to give a pledge to have no connection whatever with anj ' secret society, nor to be present at the meetings of any secret society, so long as he remains a meml)er of the university, exception being made for two specified literary organizations. It is clear, therefore, that the college fraternity is an institution with two aspects. It is based upon a natural human instinct, and in general its aims are legitimate and its influence salutary. Vet. exclusion of the system from some universities and its limitation in others testify to the existence of defects in the theory. Too often there is manifest a tendency to create divisions where there should be unity, to set up group distinctions where the spirit of democratic equality should prevail. However lofty the aims of such secret orders, they frequently become instrumentalities used to promote the influence or advan- tage of their members, to the detriment of non-members and consequently to the impairment of college discipline and progress. While any sweeping criticism of the fraternities in the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy would be manifestly unjust, since in many respects they are faith- ful to the highest aims they profess, it is unfortunately true that in certain instances their influence has been harmful to the student body and obstructive of sound management. The need is for the societies and their members to exemplify more truly the real spirit of fraternalism — not to serve selfish or e.xclusive pur- poses, but the larger causes of helpfulness to those who need it and of advance- ment of the college and the Drofession. W) :,sii3S -i:is Kappa Psi Delta Kappa I ' .si Delta Sororil}-, licta Chapter, was organized at the I ' hiladelphia College of Osteopathy, November 7, 1908. During the years the growth has been steady and sure and today. Beta Chapter is represented by seveniy-nine nienibers in the field. Now we strive, as those before us, to measure up to those ideals for our profession, our college, and our lives, for which the organization stands. It is our hoi e that the future will find us stronger and more useful than ever before. I- OLL OF CHAPTERS Alpha Los Angeles, Cal. JJeta Philadelphia, Pa. Gamma Chicago, 111. Delta Kansas City, Mo.

The atlas bone was chosen its emblem, typifying the uijholiiing ut everything intellectual and worthwhile. The [)ermanent organiza- tion was c()ni])kie i cm OecenilK-r 10, 189iS, and due to the choice of the atlas bone as the symbol of the fraternity, its name was changed to the Atlas Club. .Styloid Chapter was granted its charter and installed, May 10, 1924, at Atlantic City.

' 11 chapters have lived up to the original ideals of the founders and today we find the oldest and largest fraternal organization in the Osteopathic world, with 1.500 jM-acticing field meniljcrs and 500 active members.

An organization of this character has for several years been considered by the students of the Philadelphia College, but it was not until December, 1924, that definite favorable action was taken by the dean and the Faculty. A Faculty committee was appointed for the purpose of organizing the fraternity, outlining requirements for member- ship and drawing up a suitable constitution. Although this fraternity cannot be justly called a national organization, it is the plan to extend its membership to the other recognizedl colleges of Osteopathy and enroll as many of the said colleges as possible on its chapter roll in the very near future. As a national body, with chapters in every college, we feel that the prospect of advancing the standards of scholarship in the various schools is very bright. Furthermore, it is our idea that the efficiencv of each individual graduate will be increased. Again, it is our plan to aid the American Osteopathic Association in its campaign for better colleges and better students. On the whole, therefore, the object of this society will he the advancement of the scientific art of Osteopatlw. Memeersiiip There is no discrimination so far as se.x, color, creed, age and nationality are concerned in the selection of members, consequently all students and graduates of recognized colleges of Osteopathy who meet the requirements are eligible for membership. Included in the roll are five classes of members, namely, Student Members, divided into Class A and Class B ; Faculty Members, Alumni iMcnibcrs aiifl Professional Field Members. For Student Membership the requirements for eligibility and nomination are based primarily upon the grades or averages in every subject taught, in every clinic conducted and in every laboratory period held. The grade or average main- tainerl during the specified time must Ijc 90 per cent., or its equivalent, in class, clinic and laboratory. A student to be eligible for membership must not have been inexcusably absent from more than 10 per cent, of all classes, clinics and laboratory periods conducted during the specified time. Excusable ,nbsences or cuts are only tliose which have been jjermitted Jjy llic Dean of the College. The general conduct, mf)rais. appearance and attitude of the candidates are carefully considered by the Faculty committee in the selection of members. This inckules not only candidates ' relations in the College, but also in the hospital and clinic. Practical ability, when required by the committee, is demonstrated in whatever way the committee sees fit. . ' lso an interneship of at least four weeks in a recog- nized hospital must be completed in a satisfactory manner. The Chief of Staff, Hospital Committee or I ' rofessional Superintendent furnishes the record of each candidate for such interneshii). Stuflents from other recognized colleges of Osteopathy are eligil)]c for nieni- bershij) in this organization upon presentation of salisfaclory gr. ' ides and ;illcnd;nKT recor ' ls, anr] upftn coin]. lction of at least eiglil -(inscciilive nioiilbs nf alleinlaiicc at the Philadel] hia College of r)st(()palhy. C!lass A members arc known as elected members, and include those students who have met all llic r ' .quiicments of the organization for three cnHege vears anrl a liajf. m. I m Class B members arc callcrl nominated members, and are those students who have been selected after satisfying all the specified requirements for three college years. These mcmijcrs can be drojiped from the chapter ' s roll at any time that they do not maintain the jn-opcr standards as outlined, at the discretion of the members in good standing and the l ' acully committee. For Faculty Membership the requirements for election are somewhat elastic. All or a part of the faculty of P. C. O, may be elected at the discretion and by a vote of the Student .Members, with the ap;)roval of the committee of the Faculty. The Alumni Membership of this fraternity consists of those physicians who have been Class A members in good standing at the time of their graduation from a recognized college of Osteopathy. The Professional iMeld Membership is composed of physicians who have been elected because of unusual ability or accomplishment in the practice of Osteo])athy after graduation from a recognized college of Osteopathy. Election A candidate is elected to this fraternity entirely at the recommendation of the Student .Members and upon the approval of the committee of the Faculty, after the record of his or her work and character is compared with the require- ments, as outlined above. There are no applications, the membership being entirely determined and selected by the proper authorities. Purpose The main purpose of this society is to advance Osteopathy and improve the knowledge of each student and practitioner of that science. In order to do that we plan to hold open meetings periodically and supply leaders in the various branches as speakers and demonstrators. We also plan to aid in the acquisition of a lietter College library. Eventually, too, we will try to establish more and better post graduate courses in conjunction with the various osteopathic societies and colleges. The mainter.ance of modern equipment will be another aim of the organization. Even-thing that will improve the standards of the students and profession, therefore, will receive the support of this fraternity. Re v. kds The reward for merit is a suitably engraved Certificate of Membership, accomjianied by a (lold Key, given to all members except those in Class Pj grou]i. We hope that these symlmls of honor will in a short time assume theif jiroper meaning to the osteopathic profession in general. Further, the list of members will be submitted to the P oard of Directors, be posted upon the College bulletin boards, Ije printed in the College publications and announced at Commencement exercises. At present it is our jjlan to give the key and certificate publicly, at either the Class Ti ' dv or Commencement exercises. Officers . t tile time of writing there are no officers of this fraternity, except possi! l - the committee of the Faculty, consisting of Dr. Emanuel Jacobson, Dr. Francis j. .Smith and Dr. Ralph L. Fischer, who have drafted all the data contained herein, under the direction of Dean Edgar O. Ilolden. However, when the organization is completed there will he a group of student officers elected by the .Student Members for the Cdudiu-linn of regular meetings and the direction of the fra- ternity work.

The Neurone Society ' ri lo The stucenl ijod} in llic Philadelphia College of Osteopathy is organized under the head of the Neurone Society. This society was founded on February 24. 1902. having as its object the stimulation of scientific research and promotion of good fellowship. In its twenty-three years of college service, the Neurone Society has carried with its numerous endeavors the high purpose of many leaders — notably con- spicuous, the work of our Dean, Dr. Edgar O. Holden, who during his presidency as a student, established the Axone as our college quarterly. Each year brings new expression to the voice of this society — and as wc hear in echoes of the past, promises for gymna ' iums, libraries, dormilorics, ;ind science halls of the future— so, too, the Neunme r.unch Room is tins ' ear ' s con- tribution to the -Mmighty Present! Time is too slow for those who wait — lliis sociely ' s |)rogi-amnie for the year 1924-1925 more rjefinitely besjjeaks ils inlluence ni the college life of cacii and every student; no society in the l ' hiladel])liia College of Osteo])athy allows more opportunity for the social advancement and educational progress of its members ! %esume of the Neurone Activities 1924-1925 September 19 — A Freshman Dance always presages new faces, features, forms and stunts ! And this was no exception ! E. W. Wiley shall long be remembered for his sallopin;;- cf)nsumi tion of eicjlitecn bricks of ice cream — and we are not positive whether or not he was definitely responsible for losing a sweet, young frosh in the suburbs of West Philly — but we have our suspicions ! September 25 — I ong has P. C. O. felt the ahduniinal need of a good constitutional supjjort — and through the aggressiveness of .M. . nderson, ' 27: M. Jackson, ' 27; G. Clarkson, 27, and M. Perkins. ' 27, the Neurone f.unch was fitfully born in the year of our Lord One, Nine, Two, Four! Its service to hundreds daily merits appreciative mention! , Oelnber 4 — Neurone-Dufur Day was officially recognized and approved this year by the student body. Two chartered busses conveyed hundreds of students to the beautiful country estate of Dr. J. Ivan Dufur whose hospitality, en famille, is ever a permanent tribute to his success. The Faculty Senior baseball game was conductive to many stiff situations — followed the ne.xt day by many stitTer realities — but lame joints were mild contrasted with the lame orchard where j arked the hungering students in their first, few, faltering steps! Supper served on the lawn proved the Osteopath ' s capacity for many things — conscnrntkiely — hot dogs and doughnuts ! An evening completed by Interclass nnisic and levity brought to dose a wonderfully harmonious day — and the Wissahickon shall long echo the sing- ing voices which heralded glad tidings that night ! October 12 — Jenab-i-Fadil, Professor of Psychology ini the King ' s Medical College at Terhian, presented Bahaianism to a variedlv impressed student body! October 30 — Who shall ever forget the famous Kiddy Kar Polo staged on Hallowe ' en eve by Messrs. Gcrlach. llowman, Cossalioom and Powell in The Senior Class, and Messrs. tiillis, Gillian. Gedney and Oxley in the Junior Class, with Krnie Johnson, ' 25, referee? Complete exhaustion manifested itself, and the resulting inertia registered as late as midyears! lie who laughs last laughs best — years shall be necessary to apjjreciate this last laugh, ' cause months have elapsed and students are still chuckling at these gayly naked gladiators who wrecked not only Dr. Dufur ' s croquet mallets and the Neurone Society ' s Kiddy Kars, but the seriousness of many a retlected moment ! Gcrlach as the modern Raffleer in his final auction sucoiimbid speechless but triumphant ! 1J5 f ' i1 The Frosh Apache Dance, and the Staphylococci Trio, representing Clarkson, Anderson and ' inant, contributed the last touch to a perfectly riotous evening I November 19 — Mabel C. Jackson, hostess, presided at the first afternoon Neurone Tea — may it never be said of Mabel that she was cognizant of Lib Toomey ' s collusion with Dr. Xewman — Dr. Soden being the victim of irreverent spirits ! November 21 — The !Miles Memorial Clock was placed in the Assembly Room as an everlasting tribute to a student who gave of his time and life — a student in the ranks of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathy. December 19 — The first Christmas Neurone IMusical was a great success, and success is always measured in terms of support and co-operation. Christmas carols were never more beautifully sung! Dr. Dufur ' s pertinent personal address savored of much that filled the hearts of every student. It struck a note which found harmonious expression in the many musical numbers of that festive programme, glorifying: S. Kanev, ' 25; T. Maginnis, ' 25; J. Lindsav, ' 25; A. Leeds, ' 27; M. Hough, ' 27; M. Perkins, ' 27; L Mentzer, ' 27, and A. Hestorfer, ' 28. We want more Christmas Musicales, more wonderful music, more beauti- ful spirit of fellowship ! December 20 — Good Will baskets were delivered to twenty-five little children packed with Christmas food and toys. This precedent which we established we hope shall be carried on in years to come — for such generosities bring more than gratitude to the hearts of students when they sense the thanks of these poor little urchins !

Kincsbury m The Junior New York State Osteopathic Society I fi OR some -ear?, a need was felt in the student body, and csjicciallv among those ])iescnt from Xew York Stale, for an orLranization that would bind those individuals into a working, harmonious unit. To satisfy this need, the Junior Xew York State Osteopathic Society was established. Through the energies of Miss R. II. Winant as temporary cliairman. organ- ization was completed in the spring of 1924. During that year regular quiz classes were held which did much to prepare the memljers for the examinations of the New ' ork State Medical Board. After an a])parent interval of inactivity during the fall of the present term, the society suddenly began to show new signs of life. ' elI-known speakers were selected to address the society, making activities more interesting and acc( ntuating those purposes which prompted the formation of the society. It is universally believed that this bond of union is doing much to encourage the members in their present work and promises fair to further scientific Oste- Lipathy in the State of Xew ' ork. i 151 Yellow Cab Club I BNEW diversion, incidentally a source of funds for the aspiring self- mader, has, during- the past year, driven golf, bridge, and studies com- pletely ofif the week-end calendars of some twenty of the best known men in the college. What is this new activity that so wholly occupies the attention of some of our best students? Crnss-word puzzles? Xnl Mah Jong? Xol! Bootlegging? No!!! It ' s taxi-driving. Remember one Saturda - or Sunday this spring, when a neatly uniformed young chap rescued you fruin that unexpected storm or guaranteed to get you to the station in nothing flat in bis little yellow bus? Did you look at him very closely? For in other guise this same obsequious fellow who seemed hardly more than a uniform and driving ability put together, may in the whitest of clothes, and with the cleanest hands, be assisting the Chief Surgeon of the Osteopathic Hospital explore the innards of some poor, unfortunate patient. Through the courtesy and co-operation of the Yellow Cab Company of Philadelphia, which is operating a special Student Shift, ' ' many of the scions of the profession are driving taxis on the gala week-ends. Then it is tliat the twenty special drivers from Osteopathy go on and. disguising themselves in warm and neat overcoats and caps, go abroad in search of adventure — and fares. Faces are seen under the black caps at the cab stands week-ends which may be recognized five other davs a week, not only about the college, but at some of the most select affairs given by society. Sometimes the incognito is really complete, and the secret of how Johnny manages never to overdraw his allowance any more is zealously guarded from a proud family. Others spend their week-ends in profitable labor with the sanction and blessings of their ])arcnts. He ' s a worker, the la.xi-driver, and be hasn ' t much time for social tlivcr- sions. The enforced loneliness of the driver ' s life is more than compensated for by his adventures. Around the garage, a thousand bits daily enlighten the toil. Took a bunch of fellows and girls Fd known all my life from a dance the other night — stood right under the arc light and got bawled out because the company only sent one cab instead of two, and not one of em knew me. Sorry sir, ' I said himibly, ' Fll have to do. I guess I ' Tt w.is r.iining and Fd just shipped a fare at the Academy of Music. Here was an did duke with white whiskers standing in a puddle and waving his umbrella. Blamed if he didn ' t try to climb right in. Sorry, sir, ' I said gently. Tliis cab ' s occupied ' and oft ' I drove leaving him standing in his puddle. It was my uncle, and I trembled at dinner for fear he ' d recognized me, but not a chance.

V= CS ti -i --: ff ■ Athletics in a Co- educational College The growth of athletics has become so evi- dent in our modern colleges that an institution without a definite recreational programme is com- pletely lost in the realm of educational circles today. The usual slogan, Sports for All, has l.ecome such an international item of discussion that what was once considered play is now taken as a serious asset to the general building up of the boy and girl, man and woman. Schools and institutions that have looked at recreation and physical development as a waste of time to fill a vacant period, have changed their reaction to one of physical progress and con- tinued development for the better man and woman. The Philadelphia College of Osteopathy in its short period of time has made such advanced progress in the athletic world that it has become an institution of wide reputation because of its champions and championships. This is not due to the fact that the professional school has so much time to ' levote to its activity, but no work can be made effective without a change of environment and this cannot be better accomplished than by a diversion in ihe form of sports, which has found such a [jruniinent ])lace in the life of the sludcnl today. It is hoped that a future of strong men and women will make the ])rofession ' .norc able to conduct its activity in the same interest and in better health. Mll rOX F. D ' ELISCUK U. Sc, D. P. E. I 156 ,W 3E Fifth Annual Track Meet i ' Fivery yt-ar ilic Philadelphia Ccillegc of ()steoi)athy pre- se nts to the si)orting jnihlic one of the higgfest events of the winter athletic season in the form of a gigantic indoor track meet. This year ' s was number five, and one which shall live long in the annals of intercollegiate sports. It was a decided success, and af- forded local fandom an oppor- tunity which may never be duplicated. The bulk of credit can go to none others than the diminutive Doc D ' Eliscu, su|)ervisor of athletics in the I ' hiladelphia College of Oste- opathy, and the energetic Al c;illiss. manager of track, for securing the track notables that participated and for the manner in which the meet was liandled and the spectators nccommodated. The big feature of the even- ing was the running of Paavo Xurmi, recent Olympic phe- nomenon, and at present the most discussed athlete in the world, unni ran in a fea- ture two-mile grind, and so outclassed his opponent.s that they appeared to be walking. 1 i :; Althongh Xunni did not fracturt the twii-niik record, lie did add another record to the twenty-seven now credited to him. In the mile and three-quarters distance he was clocked at 8.17-5, which clipped the old record of 8.18 ' .i for- nierl - held by W. D. Day for thirty-five }ears. Nurmi traveled the two-mile course with apparent ease, and lapped every man in the event with him. After the race his great stamina was displayed when he trotted to the ropes and leaped the four-fout barrier as though the. feat just performed was but a mere work- (jiit for him. Another number which seemed even to surpass that of Xurmi ' s was Willie Ritola, the Americanized countr -man of Xurmi. This knight of the cinder path ran three and a quarter m iles, and, al- though he started at a pace that simu- lated a 220-yard sprint, he incre.iscd his speed at everv lap; antl on the home stretch uncorked a .sprint that made him look like a 50-yard entry. So well did he run that he lapped his nearest rival four times, and at the end of the race it was announced, amidst a great out- burst of applause, that he had broken the world ' s record for that distance, making it in 15.38, and thereby clipping ,il ' s off the old record. Harold I ' .oots Lever, former intercollegi- ate dash chamijion, won the SO-yard event, defeating, among ftthcrs, George Hill, ])resent college sprint title holder of the University of Pennsylvania. The Phi Sigma Gamma team, composed of Ivlwards, Gerlach, Fitzwater and Jensen, won the intcrf paternity relay for the fifth consecu- tive year. The Iota Tau .Sigma fraternity ran .scconfl, and the . ' tlas Club won a close third place. The other events of the evening were as follows: 138 el One Mile Catholic Wv h School Championship Relav — Won bv West Catholic High.

This was a fast game for an opener and was not decided until the last few minutes of play when the boys put over the winning basket for a 30-29 victor)-. On December 17, at Con well Hall the team lost a scrappy game to Temple University, 31-21. The following night the team pulled another thriller and won tlie Ilaverford game in the last few minutes of play. The score was 28-27. On January 7, following the holidays, the team repeated with another sensational wind-uj) and beat Dre.xel, 30-29. The winning streak was broken, however, by Swarthmore on January 9, when the hosts pinned a 33-19 decision on us. On January 17 the Maroon and Grays took a journey to Chesterton, Md., but the Washington College managed to put across a 28-17 victory. Following this game and after a long lay-off for the mid-year gruelling, .Muhlenburg sla])|)efl defeat on the old record to the tunc of 37-21. The boys started well and were in the lead at the end of the half-way mark, but the effects of long hour.i over the ole books were in evidence and Muhlenberg carried away a hotly contested and well-earned victory. On February 25, Juniata snared a 33-19 wreath. Moravian, however, was not shown any mercy and the D. O. ' s led them a merry battle before finally sinking their hopes with a 40-22 shot. The team ' s prospectus for the coming season is unusually bright, as the only man who will be lost by graduation is Captain Gerlach. So, with practically the entire Varsity remaining, 1 ' . C.

Scrimmage was fast and cleverly conducted, but victory smiled Ursinus- ward with a 42-10 grin. On February 7, the girls again accompanied the Varsity to Drexel and again displayed a choice form of pep, but once more the opponents took the long end of a 38-18 score. On January 13, the team opposed the fast Philadelijhia Normal sextet, but the teachers were well versed in basketry and revealed a winning brand of game. The result was 22-14. On February 26, the University of Pennsylvania co-eds were met and a closely contested conflict netted a reverse score of 22-15 to our battling six. Much acti(jn and a thriller of a game are to be expected in the return with the Philadelphia Normal team, which is to be played in the near future. The team shows the need of a couple of far-reaching prolectiirs in the back field and a step-ladder pivoter.

In the next game, on December 10, the Fresh showed Germantown Academy a snow storm scene, and buried them beneath a 40-22 score. On December 18 the embryos failed to have the same success, and bowed to Media tfigh, 30-19. The boys played under difficulties, the court being a slippery dance floor, and Weed chains were more in order than suction shoes. Swarthmore Frosh tacked another defeat on the boys on January 9, following the holiday layoff. The ne.xt game followed mid-years, and who could give their best after such a tiring siege? The fast West Philadelphia High team took a 35-24 tilt. After this the boys journeyed to Phoenixville on January 23, hut returned with the short end of a 29-19 score.

With the organization of the team an annual Women ' s Intercollegiate Cham- jionshij) Meet was inaugurated, and has served well its jjurjjose in giving local impetus to this true sport. The initial presentation of this event resulted in a win or the University of Pennsylvania mermaids, with our fair swimmers traveling n a close second herth. That local iiUcrest was attracted and focused is acknowl- Iged. The second Women ' s Intercollegiate C ' hamiiionsliip found Temple I ' niver- ity and Drexel swimmers tiling their resjiective entries. The meet was held on January 22. and the University of Peiuisylvania nu-rniaids again showed lluir fins to a hotly pursuing school of rivals. . meet was held with Darlington Seminary on Novemher 4, at West Chester. The P. C. O. amphibians ca|)tured all l)Ut two of the firsts, but were defeated because of their number, for Uarlington ' s entries outnumbered llinsc of ! ' , ( ' .

(lants Croswrll Ciiiswolil TuuiiK-v ' M m Manacsk-Elkct Ca Review of the Tennis Season I i li 192-1 tennis season at P. C. O. can certainly be considered a successful l ) one. When noting tlie type of colleges played, the team deserves, for its showing a great deal of credit. P. C. O. is fortunate in having on its team a man who is rated among the ten best tennis players in this country. Carl Fischer, in 1923, under the colors of P. C. O., annexed the much-coveted Inter- collegiate Tennis Championship. An abundance of credit goes to him as captain and star of the team. Among the results of the season was a tied match with Haverford and another with Lehigh. In the tilt with Ursinus, the team turned in a laudable 5-1 victory. Matches with the other teams, though not victories, were hotly con- tested and indicate that the boys were not easily defeated. Games with Princeton, Navy and Swarthmore all resulted in victories for the opponents but to the royally-battled tune of 4-2. The jjrospectus for the coming season is Ijright. Under the guidance of Johnny .Mien, the entire squad is hack to resi:)ond to the fust call for candidates, and a jjromising Frosh delegation is certain to offer much for material. The team, however, must work liard with a schedule calling for so formidable an opponent array as the University of Pennsylvania, Swarthmore, Lehigh, Haver- ford, and Pennsylvania. m M £{■•.- t ' - 168 m o Left to Right : Sherman, Mgr.

Among the former were ico. Gerlach, of Iron Arm fame : Eddie Gibbs, who spears the apple with either hand, out in the meadow; Rabbit ' ' Shaw, the little man on the hot corner; Captain Dan Donovan, who doesn ' t know the definition of a passed ball ; Don Amidon, who cavorts between third and second; his playmate of the second sack, McHenry, and Buss Moeschlin, who roams the remote fields with friend Eddie. On .April 7, the team played a practice game with Temple Dental College and beat the Dents, 3-2. The season was formally opened April 8, when the team hied itself to College- ville and lost a hard-fought game with LJrsinus with a 1-0 score. Four days later the team lost to Dre.xel, 11-2. On April 23, in another rigid battle, the boys were topped by Textile, 8-7. Again on Ajiril 26 the team went down in glorious defeat at Myerstown against Albright College. In the game with I laverford on May 7, the boys looked unusually good and returned home with a 7-2 victory. l reverse was suffered two days later at the hands of Pennsylvania Military College to the tune of 7-1. The last game of the season was on May 17, and Schuylkill College was on the long end of a 14-7 score. The outlook for next season is moix- than bright with not a man to be lost by graduation and the team to be generaled by laddie Gibbs. 170 .ftt i !i) Back row — Kauflfman, Manager Johnson, Coach D ' EHscu, Assistant Manager Hensel, Ross.

Purpose of Alumni As.socl tion iC O FOSTER and larther College activities, to improve the educational requirements for entrance and to elevate scholastic standing; to add to the equipment for research laboratories in Osteopathy ; to bring- the College and students in closer co-oi)eration ; to develop the interest of our undergraduates, former students, and Alumni, in the affairs of tb.e Philadelpb.ia College of Oste- opathy. C. MP. IG. S In connection with the financial work of the Alumni a drive was started for funds to endow the College. Numerous methods were employed. Finally a plan by means of which each alumnus should contribute several shares of paid u]) Building and Loan Association .stock was tried and found to be ([uite successful. The campaign of 1916 raised $60,000, the campaign of 1919 netted $102,000, and that of 1924 contributed appro.ximately $70,000 to the general fund of the College and Cjsteopathic llos])ilal. . t present the finances of the College are easily suffi- cient to carry on the progressive work of Ccjllege activities and further any new project in view. CoLf.KGE Lll!R. RV . new library was sorely needed by the increasing slmlcnl Ixuly. An a|ipc,il was addressed to the Alumni for books. Immediate response was met with. Hooks were sent from .Mumni members from many members of the eastern states. The returns were truly encouraging and amazing. The library was started with a gusto and threatens to grow into immense pro])ortions. The j)ersonnel of the library committee is as follows: Dr. J ' eter M. IJrearley. Dr. Alary I ' allon Ililiicr, Dr. James AfcCuigan, Secretary of Alumni Association. 174 Alum?ti and Commencement Banquet On the evening- of June 5, 1924, our annual banquet was held at a promi- nent hotel. About three hundred faithful alumni representing graduates of every class since 1901. It was a memorable occasion, because our illustrious Dean. Dr. Arthur M. Flack, was to retire from the Deanship of the College. We, will I liad kniiwn him so long, felt deep sorrow at his severance of College activities. 1 le liad acted as a father and guide to the undergraduates. To tlie practising pjiysicians he was a brother, ever hel])ful and co-operative in any enterprise he engaged, and thoroughly interested and interesting in any project that meant the uplifting of Osteopathy. The debt we owe Dr. Flack, teacher, dean, and executive head, leader in Osteopathy, we shall not lie able In repav. Tile .Mnnini commended the appointment of Dr. Edgar O. 1 lolden as our new (lean. The . ssociation is ready to encourage any new project he wishes fostered or to aid him to secure new equipment for the College. 175 if Roll of Ahimru Acornley, A. H., 11 5228 Locust St., Phila., Pa.

Philadelphia County Osteopathic Society Dr. William J. Furev, President Dr. H. rrv E. Leox. rd, Treasurer Dr. Feter H. Bre.-vrley, Vice-President Dr. M. ry Patton Hitniui. Seeretary msi EXECUTIVE BOARD Dr. Arthur M. Flack Dr. Mary Elizabeth Henry Dr. O. J. Snyder XN 1903, a small number of osteopathic physicians gathered in the office of Dr. J. Ivan Diifur. Fifteenth and Walnut Streets, and choosing Dr. Charles J. Aluttart as their president, planted the seed of an organization which, in after years, was to blossom forth and be the medium through which great legislative battles have been won, the high standard of the profession upheld, the closer bond between the County and State established, clinics operated, a recognized College of Osteopathy maintained, an Osteopathic Hospital instituted and sup- ported, and thousands of dollars raised to defray legislative expenses and pur- chase, equip and sustain suitable properties for an Osteopathic College and! Hospital. This organization is knovm today as The Philadelphia County Osteo- pathic Society. On November 5, 1907, the osteopathic physicians of Philadelphia met in the College Building, Thirty-third and Arch Streets, for the purpose of reor- ganizing the society. A new Constitution and By-laws were drawn up and adopted. The first meeting of the reorganized society was held December 3, 1907, with) Dr. C. W. McCurdy as president, and fiftv-three members enrolled. Dr. McCurdy was succeeded in office by Dr. W. L. Beitel, 1908-10; Dr. A. M. Flack, 1910-11 ; Dr. W. S. Xicholl, 1911-13; Dr. S. P. Ross, 1913-15; Dr. C. D. B. Balbirnie, 1915-16; Dr. Jane Scott, 1916-17; Dr. E. H. Fritsche, 1917-18; Dr. C. J. Muttart, 1918-21 ; Dr. C. P. Snyder, 1921-22; Dr. E. G. Drew, 1922-23; Dr. W. J. Furey, 1923-25. Nine monthly meetings are held during the year and the present records show a membership of ninety-three, 95 per cent, of whom are in good standing. Thus in reviewing the great achievements made possible through the unsel- fish service, indomitable courage and unlimited faith of those whose loyalty to a great cause has given us our present status as osteopathic physicians, and among these the name of Dr. O. J. Snyder stands out prominently, we, who today reap the rewards of work well done fand what Osteopath in the County and State does not) should recognize and fulfill the duty we owe ourselves and our associates by supporting and strengthening an organization whose object and purposes, as set forth in the Constitution, are to promote, protect and subserve the best interests of its members and the science of Osteoi)alliy in the City and vicinity. 192 3 Membership 1924-25 Bailey, John H.

Was it a quic or e.miii — fought it; I hurled iii youth into a graz ' e. I liwifed the title, and got it — Came out zcitli a D.O. last fall — Yet, soniclioiv, life ' s not wJiat I thought it, .-laud somehozv the title isn ' t all. No. Tliere ' s a college, (tlave you foitnd it?) It ' s the queerest place that I knozv, From the big factories and smoke that surround it To the din and the rattle of trolleys below. Some say man zvns tired zvhen he made it ; Some say it ' s a fine place to shun. Maybe. But there ' s some as zvould trade it For no school on earth — and Tin one. You come to get knoivledge (damn good reason) ; You feel like an exile at first. And then you hate it like hell for a season, And you knozv it is zvorse than- the zvorst. Then it grips yoti like some kind of sinning, And tzvists you from foe to a friend. It seems it ' s been since the beginning; It seems it zcill be to the end. I zvanted the title, and sought it; And missed all the dances and games, like a fool. Was itte.vtbook or notes — bought it. And passed up all social activities of school. I zvanted the title, and got it — Came out zvith a D.O. last fall — Yet, somehozv, life ' s not zvhat I thought it. And somehozv the title isn ' t all. 1% LAST WILL MD TESTAMENT OF THE CLASS OF 1925 OF THE PHILADELPHIA COLLEGE OF OSTEOPATHY XN THE name of bones, so be it.

I SYNAPSiS The following incident will serve to reveal the extent to which the power of observ ' ation has developed in our midst. A man limped into the clinic. His face wore a most agonizing- expression. It plainly bespoke excruciating pain. His clothes were soiled and torn. He was unable to move his right arm. His face was scratched and bleeding. Slowly, painfully, he struggled up to a white-coated, bespectacled interne. Doctor. he breathed, I ' m hurt. The phetal physician carefully sized him up. ' ' Why, man, you have been in an accident I Four notables shot on the campus. Excuse Grube ' s apparent caution but he nearly lost his watch down town one day, while gaping up at City Hall and he isn ' t taking any more chances. Q One of our Frosh strayed into the clinic one day when it was crowded to capacity, as usual. Say, there ' s some crowd here, he ventured. Yes, answered one of the doctors. How many people do you suppose are here? One hundred and fifty-four, he returned. Righto! How did you guess it? .Simple, resijondcd the I ' Veshman.

Upon entering the blood stream, a group of Endothelial Cells attacked him and in self defense, he. Streptococcus Erysipelatus, by means of poison killed an Endothelial Cell. The District Attorney, Neutrophile Leucocyte, pleaded ' to the jurv that the defendant did not kill in self defense, instead killed Endothelial Cell in cold blood (37 C) and rancor. Furthermore, Streptococcus Erysipelatus had alwavs lived a parasitic life and such an existence could lead to nothing but murder in cold blood. The District Attorney showed also an attempt on the part of accomplices of Streptococcus Erysipelatus, namely, Mr. Late Hours, Ir.

AN OSTEOPATHIC CHEWING GUM ! ! ! (Editor ' s Note — -Several of the boys, in an attempt to meet overdue tuition, back rent, unpaid fees and social obligations, have compounded an Osteopathic chewing gum as a questionable method of redeeming their financial status. Taking advanta ge of the general Osteopathic principle, that where there is a joint there should be motion, and with a joint immobilization are concomitant discrepancies in blood and ner -e supplies, the budding scientists aim to prove that pyorrhea and dental caries are but the mere resultants of lesions of the gomphotic joints formed by the teeth and the mandibular sockets. These, by way of resistance reductions, pave the way for the nefarious Bacillus Damfino and the skulking Streptococcus Suityourself, and are thus directly responsible for the aforementioned and related conditions. The intended purpose of the Osteopathic chewing gum is to accomplish, by lingual manipulations of the resinous cud, an adjustment of these afore-referred-to lesions, and thereby re-establish the very desirable correctness of relationship between the tooth and its respective socket. The sponsors and perpetrators of this buccal ballast hold high hopes for the success of their project, and also for the continuation of their present obscurity.)

Absolutely not I Then, as Jake turned to go. he received a swift kick that sent him Hying through the air. That, said the lunatic, is in case you do forget.

JNIengle ( This article has not been edited by request ) XT IS several years now since I toured the Orient, primarily in the interest of Medical Science. But I temember especially that I prolonged my stay in India through the Summer and Fall of 1904 and found the days there almost unbearable to people from temperate climates. So it was that after a scorching day, my wife and I strolled out for an evening ' s walk, little expecting- toi happen upon an old school chum of mine. After a few moments for exchange of greet- ings, he told us he was bent on visiting an old Hindu gentleman who had sivc- ceeded in unfolding the mysteries of the air. j ly friend urged that we accompany him, and as we had had no definite purpose in our walk, we went along. On the way, he explained how this Hindu ' s invention coupled xp sound waves with simultaneous light reflections. It was but a short walk and on entering a huge arched gate, we were surprised to learn that we were residing so near a garden of such splendor. It was a unique scene. A dark-skinned Magi was there gazing ' intently into the radiance of a crystal globe. We approached the spot unnoticed until our presence had disturbed the spell, causing the Magi to become agitated. After a brief introduction, he inquired of my friend if he had made clear to us the possibilities of the crystal and if we needed further convincing. Being Americans, we had to be shown. It seemed coincident that a previous discussion with my friend had brought to my mind the days of P. C. O., and that now the very ' faces and voices could be brought to me by just stating- my wish. So I begged of him to take me back to America and let me follow the success of my classmates. The Magi again squatted before the crystal, and uncovered our side of the globe. A seeming spell was cast over everything. The turbulent glow of the crystal began to take shape and there before our eyes was Portland, Maine. On the sixth floor of a large building was the office of an Osteopathic Physician. A patient was asking for Dr. Trumbull and before his secretary could answer, Lawrence sent his resounding here through the air. That day he cancelled twelve apijointments in order to appear in his latest hit, Presidents and Their Troubles. The coast of New England was in view and a ship appeared. It was the( Reflex off for a cruise around the world. However, this was of no particular interest until I noticed the ship ' s physician, who at that time was trying o sell some jjatent remedies anfl half solved cross-word puzzles to the passengers. This doctor was making marvelf)us reductions and bargains, such as I had not heard since Rathburn tried to sell ponies during examinations. Sure enough it was Doug himself. The surgeon on the ship was busy working on an old car down in, ' the hold. He was explaining to several spectators that this was the ambulance whiqh would be used in various foreign lands they would tour. For once, Randall had ' no sign for sale on his Forrl. Al had succeccded in growing a fine nuustache and his care-free air harl been rejilacefl by one of professional dignity. Scenes shifted and in a quiet residential section of I ' oston, there were two signs on neighboring windows; the one rear, Dr. Edith Jewell, and the other, r3r. Lloyd Oliver. Strange to say, both Osteojjathic Physicians had the same office hours, so we surmised that our suspicions of P. C. O. days had become a reality. 228 Before Operating Consult This Clinic fur Non-Surgical Suggestions Fractures, Tubercular or Ar- thritic Joints, Deformities, Spimil Curvature, Foot Ailments Examination free Drew -Roth Orthopedic Clinic PROFESSIONAL BUILDING 1831 CHESTNUT STREET PHILA., PA.

As heads nodded and swayed in approval and disapproval, I recognized Drs. Blake, Integlia and Johnson — three of my colleagnes of a by -gone day. . mong the society resorts of Long Island, Dr. Mary Hiller had made her professional reputation. The office was closed and a sign on the door said : Off to Europe — Back after three months. The well-known AMlcox Sanitarium nestled quietly among the hills of Olean, X. Y. Dr. Willie was just completing her book on Diseases of the Nervous Svstem and had made the study of her subject more interesting to students by discussing various kinds of ballet dancing as a therapeutic aid in treating these maladies. The tennis tournaments were on at Forest Hills and the Veteran Finals had just ended. The crowds were proclaiming Dr. Fischer a champion. Besides a flourishing Quaker City practice, Carl had found time to be World ' s Champion several times and now had made his debut as a veteran. At a very opportune time did we glance at lower jManhattan, as the 01}Tnpic athletes were just leaving for the games abroad, and with them their medical director. Dr. Jensen. When Artie joined the boys in waving their farewells from the deck, the cherished memory returned to me of how he delivered a message while under fire during the decisive battle of Spring Garden Street. Situated in the Metropolis, and joining the other sky-scrapers in their heavenly loftiness, was a fine building devoted to Osteopathy. On the ground floor to the left of the entrance were the offices of Drs. Levitt and Cattaneo, Specialists in Rare Diseases. At the expense of some twenty patients in the reception-room, the two physicians were discussing, What had become of the appendix now extinct in 80 per cent, of cases. Over the door was a little motto : Patients come and patients go, but arguments go on forever. Direcdy across the hall. Dr. Berger met the problems of life. Ted seemed ven, ' busy, and, as he was a member of the New York Osteopathic Board, there was little doubt tha t he was making out .some stickers for the next examina- tions. The walls of his office reminded me of the old Senior room blackboard because they were decorated with many pictures, some wise, and some otherwise. A suite of rooms on the top floor comprised the headquartersi of the A. O. A. Journal. The editor was seated at his desk, pen in hand, but fast asleep. Naturally it was Dr. Ernest Hunt, not yet having caught up in sleep. Over in lirooklyn practised a physician who some years back had been known as Dr. jlnnvn, but now Dr. Brown ])lus. In the guise of a patient Cupid had apparently taken some of her time and records showed 100 per cent, results. Then there apjjearefl a scene in northern Jersey. The New Jersey Osteoixithic Convention had adjourned the day before, and Dr. and Mrs. Gibbs were enter- taining a week-end party of Twenty-fivers at tlicir country home. Dr. Grinwis, he new State President, and Dr. Hamilton, Secretary of the A. O. A., were the guests of honor. Although Dr. 1 lazcn Lachner was Jersey City ' s leading children ' s Specialist, she still retained her dcmureness and quietly arrived driving Icr electric coupe. Drs.

Cossie was now Seabrig ' ht ' s leading ' physi- cian and church soloist. Dr. Gus Reid alighted from his aeroplane, a little late as usual. He had been down to Cape lay to pick up Dr. Loscalzo, but as Horace had a date for a beach party, he had to decline the flight. Dr. Lindsay, a promi- nent aurist, had motored over from Morristown to enliven the festivities. Hie was still the same Jolly Jack. Everything progressed smoothly until suddenly Hal Colburn, Jr., and the vounger Smith staged an impromptu bout to ilecide whose father had signed the more death certificates. The fathers ended the argtmient, both sides claiming the decision. The National Association of Physical Directors was in session at Camden and was being addressed by Dr. John Allen. As lead-off man on that famous roll call, Johnnv could give some personal ideas on the necessity of keeping physically strong and alert. The Profession in Philadelphia had been strengthened by more members of that illustrious class of ' 25 than any other one place. .V number of these had associated themselves with the North Eastern Osteopathic Hospital. Realizing that first impressions go a great way, the appointment of Obstetrician was given to Dr. Muller. Contrar - to all symptoms and signs manifested during college days, Adelaide had set sail on the Sea of Matrimony by sharing th responsibilities of a Minister. Pedriatics was well taken care of bv Dr. L.utz, At last he had found a ' wav to give free play to his suppressed desires. A glance into his office showed him doing a side-bend flexion and rotation trick on the chandelier for the benefit of his little patient. The famous twin specialties G. U. and G. Y. were ably handled by Drs, Anderson and Spaeth respectively. Andy was still the same Beau Brummel and Rill ' s alopecia greatly added to his professional dignity. Chief consultant and advisor was none other than Dr. Cole. His favorite prescription had not changed since clinic days, invariably being the Buick Daily Dozen. The surgical part of this Staff was filled by Drs. Ent, Gerlach, and Slifen These three were so efficient in stimulating the auditory tract to a state of cerebral fatigue and general analgesia, that anesthetics were rarely neededi. Their motto was, Surgery first, last and all the time. tude combined with her prescriptions for calisthenic dancing had greatly increased Dr. McGenra had made a re])utation as a Geriatrician. Her sympathetic atti- the human span. However, in order to get them corning and going, Loretta had wedded an unflertaker — a great organization and even greater co-operation. Scenes changed, and at 19th and Wallace streets, we discovered Dr. Jacohson ' s laboratory. As in former days, his co-worker was Dr. Winant. On the sight of our old hunting grounds, some twenty buildings greeted our eyes. These represented our college home. Within the assembly hall, opening exercises were just starting and the s[)eaker addressing some three hundred and thirteen freshmen was heard to say, It is indeed a iM ' ivilege and a pleasure to stand before the most intelligent looking group of students that ever matriculated . . . You should be the most sncessful class ' thai ever graduated, l ' lc., and Etc. The next address was made by Dr. Larkin, another ])rofess()r nn liic l ' ' aculty The only Eady I hysician tf) speak was Dr. Myfanwy Evans, Dean of the Women ' s College, the two schools having been separated) since 1930. 232 DOUCHOL THE NON-POISONOUS, ALKALINE ANTISEPTIC Soothing, cooling- and healing to all mucou.s surfaces, easy and economical to use.

MASS. 233 The Post Graduate Department was graced by the presence of Dr. Stollery, his third return to P. C. O. Bob was quite well known by his widely advertised products especially his ' Antiseptic Mentholated Ointment and his book, A Little Knowledge is a Dangerous Thing. North Philadelphia had attracted one of our number back in! the dark ages of 1925, so we were little surprised to find the office of Dr. Woods along the boule- vard. In addition to a fine practice, Jimmy was the proud possessor of that same attraction which, by the way, grew greater day by day. Dr. Ellen Crosley as such could not be located, for now that name was only a prefix. The old saying, Two heads is better than one holds good, even in tha osteopathic field. The Baltimore Osteopathic Hospital was well established by 1940. A strange thing indeed to see the great surgeon. Dr. Hines, in the operating room, gaining altitude with the aid of a small bench. In the fertile Lancaster valley, we found the famous Shaw-Powell Sanitorium, an institution in which many of the reports current in scientific circles had their origin. Closely associated with it, and of equal renown, in the Osteopathic world, were the van de Sane laboratories. By virtue of her sex. Dr. Louise Croswell was very successful as head of the publication department. The offices of Dr. Klinger Hunt were located at Harrisburg. Although closely associated with the practice of Medicine, she still remained true to the colors of Osteopathy. The practice of Dr. Voder was confined to the wilds of Pennsylvania. With an office in Bellefonte and several high-powered motor cars, his field was as wide- spread as the fresh air of which he has been an advocator for the past twenty years. Among the remains of the old city of Johnstown, the following sign was discovered, Dr. James Rishell, physical examiner for the Flunk Insurance Co. The eminent physician was preparing to exainine a young patient by explaining to her the importance of a complete physical examination. Evidently the trouble en- countered during Jimmy ' s Junior year was only the beginning of such difficulties. Chicago with its college was ushered in with a roar, and there to our surpri.se was Dr. Soden. techniquing as usual. Enrolled in the Post Graduate Department, but this time as professors, were Drs. Sinsabaugh and Robertson. Nothing of importance attracted us until a coral isle appeared in mid-Pacific. At last Dr. . lclnnis had [tut her phenomenal voice to some use, for there beneath a threatening cocoanut-trec she was exjiounding the English language to a group of natives. The Philippines presented a very interesting scene, especially when I found that I knew the .Sanitary Engineer, Dr. Ver gera. So familiar did Enri(|ue seem, tliat I was just going to have one of those fine chats with him, when I was reminded it was all a vision. The old Magi laughed, for I had been under his spell during this wonderful experience. I was satisfied as to the possibilities of his invention, and as we strolled back to our bungalow, life found a new light, for 1 knew that the Class of 1925 had made its mark. 234 Place Your Record Booli In Good Hands W hcthcr your record will nicasure up to your ideals, — or be a disappointment, will be determined in a great measure by the extent with which you can depend upon your printer for counsel, co ' Operation and support.
