.atlsea Mak., vas- .Asda be Ilbebical Iinic 3 5' 3' 9 3 il HE illustration furnishes sufficient evidence of the observance at Rush of two, great principles necessary to a correct understanding of medicine: that theory should be practically applied, and that such appliance should be at the hands of consummate ability. The bi-weekly clinic in medicine, presided over by the eminent Professors Norman Bridge, A. M., M. D., and Henry M. Lyman, A. Bl., M. D., both of whom are leaders in their profession and of universally recognized ability, provide the student with the best possible advantages in practical medicine. Then, too, the personal attention that is paid each student in these clinics is of no mere consideration. Here he begins his practice, and is placed on his own resources in the responsibility of diagnosing and stating the treatment of cases given to his charge, all of which is subject to the corrections of his fellow class-mates and the prudent criticism of his instructors. Being conscious of this position, he is taxed to his utmost to be above suspicion from his class, and exempt from the exceptions of his professors. This method of instruction furnishes a drill in which not only quick accu- racy is acquired, but the aptitude of imparting one's own thoughts to others in a clear, concise and acceptable way. The reputation of this clinic furnishes it with an exhaustless supply of patients, many of whom are of a superior and private class from the Presby- terian Hospital, while others are from the Free Dispensary, all of whom gather without number within Old Rush, whose walls were reared and Dedicated to the quest of knowledge that will relieve suffering and prolong life.
