'Twas a skull Within this hollow cavern hung Beneath this mouldering canopy Once of ethereal spirit full The'ready, swift and tuneful tongue. Once shown the bright and busy eye. This narrow cell was life's retreat. If falsehood’s honey it disdained. But start not at the dismal void. This space was thought's mysterious seat And when it could not praise was chained; If social love that eye employed. What beauteous visions filled this spot! If bold in virtue's cause it spoke. If with no lawless fire it gleamed. What dreams of pleasure long forgot; Yet gentle concord never broke. But through the dews of kindness beamed Nor hope, nor joy, nor love, nor fear. This silent tongue shall plead for thee That eye shall be forever bright Has left one trace of record here. When time unveils eternity. When stars and sun are sunk in night. Say. did these fingers delve the mine. Avails it whether bare or shod Or with the envied rubies shine? These feet the paths of duty trod? To hew the rock, or wear a gem, If from the bowers of case they fled, Can little now avail to them. To seek affliction's humble shed. But if the page of truth they sought. If grandeur's guilty bride they spurned. Or comfort to the mourner brought. And home to virtue's cot returned. These hands a richer mead shall claim. These feet with angel’s wings shall vie Than all that wait on wealth or fame. And tread the palace in the sky! —Anonymous. A.

Saylor DR. SA LOR was l)orn in Quakcrtown, Pa., May ( . 1874. Hr received his preliminary education in the school of his native town and for five years following his graduation from the local high school, he taught there. Seeking larger fields, he came to the City of Brotherly Love, and entered the 'Government service. Since childhood chemistry had always fascinated him, to he a chemist was his ambition. Thus, in 1900 he enrolled in Drexel Institute for a four-year course. During his senior year he was induced to complete the supervision of the chemistry laboratory at Jefferson Medical College and upon his graduation was made a permanent member of the Jefferson faculty. He had no sooner begun to teach at Jefferson when he realized that a medical education was what lie needed in order to teach chemistry to medical students and so. in 1915. we find him receiving his M.I). degree cum laudum. His rise in the chemical department of Jefferson Medical College was phenomenal: starting as supervisor of the laboratory he was made demonstrator, associate and associate professor successively. From 1908 to 1919, lie also taught chemistry at Drexel Institute: from 1911-1922, he taught toxicology at Jefferson. He was beloved by all the “Jeff” students and could call each by his name even years after graduation. It was with a distinct feeling of sorrow, therefore, that they bid him “goodby” when, in 1922 he left that institution to become our professor of physiological chemistry. And Temple rejoiced at his coming! His lectures were so clear and concise that students oft made the mistake of not taking notes feeling that the knowledge would remain with them forever. He would describe the technique of various experiments with such inimitable mannerisms that the boys could almost hear the 5 cc. being poured into a test-tube. Ilis interest in the students' welfare was unlimited and his plans for a greater Temple Medical were crystallized when, in our Freshman year, he started the movement which finally led to our having a new building. Dr. Saylor now resides at North Wales, Pa. He was married in 189(5 to Fdith Spear and has six children. His hobby is reading scientific books and never a night passes unless it has seen him reading until the wee hours. He has said that one of his “secret ambitions is to surround himself with libraries of books and do nothing but read to his heart’s content. Dr. Saylor is a member of Philadelphia Section of the Chemical Society, the American Chemical Society, the American Association of I niversitv Professors. the American Association for Advancement of Science, and the Sigma Phi Kpsilon, Omega I psilon Phi and Alpha Omega Alpha Fraternities. Tic rlvc Labor Omnia Vincit To the Class of 3J. THIS is an event long hoped for, long despaired of, but which has finally come to pass. For four long years you have labored and struggled with lectures, laboratories, conferences, clinics and textbooks, keeping your footsteps directed toward a goal which you have finally reached. Your associations during this time will have an important bearing on your future. They who were instrumental in giving you new ideas and better methods, imbued you with higher ideals and exerted beneficent influences, have had as much parental interest in you as they who gave you brawn and sinew. Responsibilities now shift. You will no longer be judged by your instructors, for any errors or shortcomings you will not be answerable to your professors, but to your consciences. Your obligation is the care of human beings and the prolongation of their lives, a most worthy labor. Never before has the art and science of medicine offered so many means of accurate diagnosis and successful treatment both of disease and of accident as it offers today. Medicine in all its branches is the one science whose aim is to alleviate suffering, to save limb and prolong life. This is a glorious and sacred duty, and it has been done nobly, often at the sacrifice of the lives of its heroes. The privileges and opportunities which you en joyed at the Temple 1'niversity Medical School will always remain with you. The promise of the future of your Alma Mater rests with you of the graduating class and your successors. See to it that you cherish a noble ambition to achieve success by deserving success. I congratulate you on entering so deservedly honored a profession. Your success will depend upon what your intelligence, your judgment, vour character and your efforts make it. That vour professional activities will be reflected in a life’s work well done is the abiding good wish of Your friend and teacher. Thirteen V The Shull Staff Editor-in-Chicf Rocc.o F.

Tempi.f. University Medical School Temple Medical School Address delivered at the dedication of the Medical School building, October 15th By President C harles K. Becky Till-’. Medical Department of Temple College was opened in 15)01, another demonstration of the life-principle of President Comvcll in assisting young men and women to obtain their chosen profession while of necessity remaining self-supporting. Classes were held in the evening and tin. course was distributed over five years to give the student tin equivalent of a four-year dav course. In addition, TOO hours ot actual day work were required each year. Doctor Fritz was appointed Dean of the school and served in that capacity until 1903. A very earnest and sincere group of students, •51 in number, comprised the first class. Few students to successfully pass the State Board examinations in those early days was 100, a record that is seldom attained in any school today. Classes were held at the main college building. Broad and Berks Streets, and at the Samaritan Hospital, Broad and Ontario Streets, which had been rescued from oblivion by Doctor Conwell in 1891, when the founders of “The North Philadelphia Hospital. a society of physicians, were unable to continue because of financial difficulties. With his usual efficient management and his ability to interest others in making this new venture a success, the hospital was moved to its present location. 'Phe following years show his-ability to interest others in making this new venture a success, the hospital was moved to its present location. 'Phe following years show history repeating itself as again and again quarters were outgrown, assistance from friends, and state appropriations made possible the needed enlargements and improvements. Dr. I. Newton Snivel v was appointed Dean of the school in 1903, and his inspiration and enthusiasm during the following six years were great factors in the progress of the department in the early days. Tu'cuty-fivc The first two classes to graduate, those of 1904 and 1905, consisted of two members each, students who were admitted to advanced standings. In 1900 there was graduated the first class, fourteen students, to complete the entire course in Temple. Unfavorable legislation made it apparent that the evening classes would have to be abandoned since it was impossible for graduates to obtain the necessary licensure to practice in many states. It was with regret, therefore, that students were urged whenever possible, to transfer to the day classes which were being organized. Temple College was granted the title os' “Temple Tniversity” bv the Philadelphia courts in 1907, thus the School of Medicine became the department of a universitv, to go forward hand in hand with its steadv progress. Shortly thereafter Philadelphia Dental College and the Garret son Hospital at 18th and Buttonwood Streets, were annexed to Temple Cniversity and medical classes were moved to that location. Thus the school was given ample facilities with which to carry on. The Garret son Hospital, a 75-bed hospital, located in one of the largest manufacturing districts of Philadelphia at that ruiuKT Hospital ,lffor,le(l unusual facilities and material for teaching Traumatic Surgery, probably not excelled by any other medical school in the I’nited States. This institution together with the Samaritan Hospital with a capacity of 125 beds, supplied all needs of the institution for clinical and ward teaching. The enrollment of the School of Medicine in 1908-1909 totaled 288 students and the teaching stall had grown from 20 to 85. 'Phis number has been more than doubled at the present time, and with additions and changes recently made there is now a well-balanced. well-organized teaching staff. In 1924 it was felt that the Garret son Hospital as such had outlived its usefulness due to the fact that many industrial plants were moving to distant suburban locations and the maternity department had been moved to the Greathcart Hospital at 18th and Spring Garden Streets, in the spring of 1925. It was, therefore, decided to utilize the three upper floors of the Garretson ,� Mkiucai. Scikmii. Building for laboratories. Modern equipment was installed for the Department of Physiology, Kmbryology and Histology, Pathology and Bacteriologv. In addition, a new medical dissecting room with the most improved facilities was Tirenhj-sh installed in the basement of Medical Hall. On the strength of these improve-' incuts, in June, 1925, a request was made for advanced standing in the rating of the school by the American Medical Association. It seemed, however, that the time was not ripe for this advancement and after weeks and months of endeavor the school examiners, preparing for another inspection. While the authorities were somewhat discouraged by this failure, it was the consensus of opinion that the first definite forward step toward the goal of an “A ’ rating had been taken. The Garretson Hospital was moved to the Spring Garden Street building during the course of the next three years, and the entire building on Hamilton Street turned over to the Medical School for teaching purposes. 'This meant that larger classes might be accommodated since each laboratory department now occupied an entire floor. The Samaritan Hospital was greatly enlarged by a new building dedicated June 28, 1925, and the older sections of the hospital were renovated so that the teaching hospital of 'Temple I’niversity now took its place among the largest and best-equipped hospitals of the city. The bed capacity, with the addition of the Roosevelt Hospital floor, was 830. In the winter of 1929, it was decided to change the name of the hospital to Temple I Diversity Hospital, which more clearly reveals its close connection with the 1 Diversity. Dr. Frank (’. Hammond very capably functioned as Dean of the School of Medicine for twenty years, from 1909 until June, 1929. It must have been a cause of great satis faction for him to have seen the school advanced to “A rating while he was still Dean, due to better methods of teaching, additional facilities and definite promises bv tin I niversit v of further improvements. Dr. Parkinson became Dean in 1929. At first your President was apprehensive as to our ability to maintain “A” rating and to keep our commitments to the American Medical Association. 'I’llis, however, was quickly dispelled bv the aggressive policy of the new dean. Almost immediately he addressed his attention to the enlargement of the faculty. Many brilliant men of medicine, nationally and internationally known, were persuaded to join in Temple’s new venture. The building plans were greatly enlarged. A noticeable forward step all along the line followed. Twenty-seven Last fall ground was broken for the new Medical School building to be erected directly opposite the hospital, at Broad and Ontario Streets, and the building is now ready for occupancy. The total cost of the completed structure is a million and a quarter dollars. The school has a beautiful room to house the splendid library which was at the disposal of students and instructors in the cramped quarters at 18th and Buttonwood Streets and in the hospital building. Dispensaries and administrative offices share with the library the first and second floors. The third floor is devoted to the Departments of Neurological Research and Pharmacology. The fourth floor houses the Departments of Chemistry and of Medicine, settled back to remedy the shortcomings enumerated by the Physiology. The Departments of Pathology, Bacteriology and Public Health occupy the fifth floor and the sixth floor is assigned to the Department of Anatomy. The seventh floor contains storage facilities for mammals, rodents, etc. The largest student enrollment in its history, selected from more than fifteen times its number, will be the first to enjoy the facilities of the new building and thus the dream of the faculty, students and alumni is realized. There is now at the disposal of the medical student the best to be found in instruction both from the standpoint of faculty and equipment., and the men who graduate shall prove by their contributions to science and service to humanity, that Temple t’niversity has taken her rightful place in the medical and educational world. Probably as kaleidoscopic a change in the prestige and position of the school took place as has ever been noticed in the life of a medical insti tut ion. It is a subject for great congratulation. It has cost much in money. However, it will justify itself by its service to humanity both directly and through the collateral help to the I niversity at large.

William Mayo, M.l) Temple University Medical School •Address road at the dedication exercises of the new Medical School Buildings «� f Temple University, Philadelphia, Ortolan lo. IIKKI. By WILLIAM J. MAYO. M.D. Rochester, Minnesota PHILADELPHIA saw the birth of systematic medical education in the United States. In 1765 the University of Pennsylvania established a medical department under the guidance of John Morgan. Benjamin Kush was the physician, ami William Shippen, Jr., the surgeon in charge. These are names to conjure with. Morgan and Shippen had been trained by John Hunter and were accomplished surgeons of the time. Rush brought fame to medicine in signing the Declaration of Independence, ami by his contributions to the social and political as well as to the medical beginnings of America; Jefferson Medical School, founded in 1825, has from the first maintained a splendid reputation. Wo have only to think of the Grosses, father and son, and others of the faculty of medicine of this great school, to understand the loyalty to its ideals evidenced by its alumni and the respect in which it is held by the public. The Medical-Chirurgical School, established in 1881, has developed into one of the tine post-graduate schools of the world. Today we have the pleasure and privilege of dedicating to the humane purposes tor which Philadelphia has so long been famous these beautiful medical buildings of Temple University, the youngest of the Philadelphia group in point of time, which are to form the nucleus of a new medical center. Temple University had its origin in the ideals of a great citizen, Dr. Russell H. Conwell, who forty-six years ago saw the need and whole-heartedly gave his time, his imagination, and his strength to the development of a college which from its inception was based on the idea of training in higher education for students of limited means. Built n idealism, Temple University has carried with it a conception of education both cultural and medical which should be truly on the university basis, and with long and painstaking effort has raised its medical school to the rank of a class A institution. We acknowledge America’s indebtedness to the spiritual idea which has made possible these material results before which we stand today. In the earlier day, the foundation . f medical education was the clinical practice of medicine. There were many schools which, with little regard for culture, were intent only o;: training students so that with the limited knowledge of the time they would be well equipped to practice medicine. At the head of those schools were usually one or more strong men who in a sense were proprietors. Considering all of the perplexities of the development of a sufficient number of physicians to care for all of the people, vc must think kindly of these men, because their effort was prompted not bv greed or ambition for personal glory, but by a real love of the profession of medicine to which they had dedicated their lives. As time advanced, it became more and more evident that the highest type of medicine could not be developed without a better cultural foundation. The small medical schools with the part-time teachers began to pass away and gradually medical education was largely assumed by those universities which were capable of giving a cultural background on which medicine would be properly based. Higher education, as exemplified in the Pilgrim Fathers, was based almost entirely on the conception of education for leadership, especially in the learned professions, Thirty-one Lohhy of Mkdk’.m. School Distkxsak y YV.yjtixg Room, Kikst 1’i.ook, N ksv School Thirti -twu religion, law, and medicine. The early history of our country, particularly of New Hi.gland, is replete with examples of such professional leadership, but today intellectuality in leadership is perhaps less important in the minds of the people. The great material rewards and social position no longer so closely follow culture, but rather follow in the wake of commercial and industrial success. fn thirty years the number of those who seek higher education has grown from one in 3.000 to one in 150, and as a result one hears frequently the tlippant expression, the craze’’ for higher education, and sees a growing separation between those schools which stress education which is purely cultural and the vocational schools, which train for that type of education which give-; a livelihood. Have educational needs been properly analyzed? The enormous mass of information on every subject has made it impossible to give more than the shortest and briefest training it an attempt i- made to cover many subjects. Our methods of education fall short ot our hopes and expectations. The cost of education borne by the American people is greater than anv other expense supported hv public taxation, and this burden i Itornc willingly, with the expectation that finer citizenship will be the result, and with the hope that the democratic form oi government, to maintain which the nation has offered life ami wealth in four great wars, shall be made safe and dependable in the years to come. As one travels through the United States one finds in nearly every village, no matter how remote or how poor, a structure, the public school building, which is magnificent as compared with its surroundings. The school house is the proud monument to the desire of the people that their children shall receive a better education than they themselves had. It is a visible testimonial of their loyalty to the country in which they live, and of their resolute determination that it' future shall be made secure, not by efforts of arms, but by efforts of intellect. A I look on present-dav tendencies in higher education, I notice a marked difference from conditions as they existed when I was a college student. The valuation oi culture for its own sake was then in the ascendancy, and our eves were fastened almost wholly on the past. A classical education to a large extent meant going back to the great days of (irecce and Koine. Those things which were useful were sometimes believed t be necessarily not cultural. In the profession of medicine, for instance, it lias been only in the present generation that a physician, in England, has entered the house of tin nobility through the front door. Previously lie went in at tin back door with the tradesmen and the boys delivering groceries. And yet knowledge of the past gave the foundation on which has been built the present and on which we predict the future. Today we realize that culture does not depend on those things which give general information only, but that progress in the extension of life and increase of human happiness is more and more developing the cultural value of the useful. That education has for its object not only the abstract but also the concrete is exemplified in the scientific attainments from which have developed the wonders of modern industry. We turn on the electric light without thinking what it means; we accept as a matter ot course the phonograph, the motor ear. the radio, the aeroplane, and use them with very little conception of their true significance. Today the student emerging from high school takes at least two years in premedical courses which are fundamentally basic but have little to do with the actual practice of medicine. With this preparation, or perhaps with a degree from .1 college of science, literature and arts, which has required four years, tie student enters the medical school and for two years, speaking generally, lie remains in tin hands of those instructors who teach the fundamental sciences of medicine, men who do not themselves practice medicine, and who often do not teach the fundamental sciences in relation to the practice of medicine. Therefore, of bis training of from six to eight years from the high school, only the last two years arc really concerned with clinical practice, and many medical schools have found it necessary to demand one or more hospital years to Thirty-three Thirty-four supplement this too monger training in clinical medicine. Added to this period of at least six or seven and often eight years spent in medical school is the cost, and it is quickly seen that from .$7,000 to $10,000 is necessary to enter the practice of medicine. The end result may he to deter men of moderate means from taking up the study of medicine, thus tending to form a privileged group, what might he called an aristocracy, which the history of medicine does not warrant. Temple University has provided a plan to avoid this catastrophe. It is true, of course, that many medical students are earning their way through school, hut. with the enormous amount of work that has been required from the medical student in the average school to hold his place under a competitive system, he is made to work too many hours a day and too many days a week to give much time to other employment. To educate means to train the mind, but under the modern system to educate apparently means rather to train the memory. The tests on which many a young man who comes into medicine fails l maintain his college standing are his Waterloo because he can not repeat by rote the opinions his instructors have forced on him. The pendulum has swung from the deification of the clinical to the deification of cultural education, and sometimes one rather suspects that the so-called honor points are hurdles to trip the unwary in order to reduce the number of students to the number that can he taught easily. Large expensive buildings are sometimes used but a few hours a day and work in them is not often speeded up l the rhythm in which the average American is rightly or wrongly compelled to maintain tin pace. Far he it from me to criticize, because I realize all too well the great difficulties which confront the university. As I have pointed out, the educator i usually a specialist in a particular line, and so far as the cultural premedical work and the first two years of the medical course are concerned, he may have little knowledge of the practical application of the subjects that he is teaching, and sometimes subjects the students to tests which are too critical, to discover the amount which their memory has been able to store. This method of teaching has divorced knowledge from wisdom. It tends to separate the science from the art of medicine. The student learns because he must learn to get his degree, and the instructor unconsciously uses the degree as a club to compel the student to remember by a cramming process rather than an understanding of what is taught. The whole question of examinations must undergo a sensible revision in the near future. In Philadelphia, I am glad to sav, medicine is taught from the clinical standpoint, and the basis of the educational program is to take care of sick people. Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania, and some other schools have had the courage to reduce the enormous number of hours of compulsory study, and with splendid understanding of the necessities are stressing clinical medicine and are teaching the foundation subjects with regard to their application. I believe this trend is being generally recognized by all our medical schools. For twenty-four years I have been one of the Regents of the University of Minnesota, and during this period 1 have seen a gradual change in estimations of culture, from the attitude which in the early days assumed that culture was a material quality which could he put on with a cap and gown to the present understanding that true culture is a spiritual quality which ennobles life. In this sense culture is the foundation stone of medicine. I do not believe that the medical student should approach the study of medicine as we should expect a student in the grammar or the high school to approach it. The medical curriculum should he flexible and the student should he allowed to go through his medical course exercising to a considerable extent the natural bent of his mind to follow certain subjects. In other words, if a student is interested in chemistry, so that he can easily go greatly beyond the requisite grades, why should he not he allowed to use credits of this excess knowledge to bring up his average in other work, provided he has sufficient working knowledge of his low credit subjects to give a good viewpoint ? Thirty-five How much wiser il would he to have the science and the sir? closely linked during the four years connected with medicine as in the English schools, and never allow the student to lose sight of the fact that the purpose of teaching fundamental subjects, such as physiology, anatomy, and chemistry, is to apply knowledge directly to the patient. From the first day the student enters medical school he should come in contact with clinical medicine, to sharpen his interest. I should like to see the experienced teachers instructing large I todies of students from all the classes in all four college years. We have overdone the small class teaching idea, largely accomplished by young instructors of immature experience. The relation of the physician to his patient is exceedingly close. The knowledge the physician obtains through confidential communications is kept inviolate. His associations with the family give him an understanding of their social, domestic, and financial conditions which is not equalled by that of the members of any other profession. He sees them often at a time when the emotional side of their personality is greatly disturbed, hut always he is tin family counsellor and friend. In his social contacts the physician commonly is considered to be a gentleman. But the hakmark of the gentleman is not his manners or his clothes, but his consideration for others. A gentleman has the inward consciousness that other individuals have the same right to their feelings and expressions that he Ini' himself, and that their viewpoint must not he destructively criticized unless it is in defiance «d the well-being of other individuals or of the community as a whole. The fine relationship between the physician and the patient and the patient’s family ami friends existed much more closely in the days of our fathers than today. The specialist has come into his own, hut the very excess of his knowledge along certain restricted lines limits his general usefulness. His social contacts to a greet extent arc lost, and the very refinement of his relation to one part of the art of medicine may make him a poor general advisor to patients, because of the narrow view of their condition that he may take. The vast amount of knowledge that is now to he obtained on almost every phase of medicine apparently threatens the life and usefulness of the general practitioner, but in reality it is not that the usefulness of the general practitioner has passed away, lint that a new field has been opened which as yet does not seem to he well recognized. We must have general practitioners who have sufficient acquaintanceship with ail sides of medicine to enable them to know when special consultation is necessary, and to carry out the treatment which the joint knowledge of the specialist and the practitioner finds necessary. We cannot all become specialists, and how is the patient to know which specialist to consult, and how can the specialist know the condition of the patient outside of his own field ol work? Wo are shown by statistics that the general practitioner is disappearing. The present lot of the general practitioner is not an easy one, and in consequence we are told that in Michigan, for instance, 50 per cent, of the practitioners in rural com- munities are more than fifty years of age, and that in rural New York 37 per cent, are more than sixty. In marked contrast to the small towns, the cities are crowded with practitioners of medicine. The man in the country can expect to earn a reasonable livelihood, hut with small opportunity perhaps for those cultural associations which he lias been taught to esteem. Motor cars, ami now airplanes, are carrying many of his most seriously ill patients to the city hospital, and because of the great improvement in public health measures there are fewer eases of contagious ami infectious diseases which in years gone by kept him busy. Better understanding of health conditions generally has obviated a large share of the practice which he tormcr.v had. But the reverse side of the picture tells another story. More and more the hospital idea has so grown that every small town has developed or i developing its community hospital. The nursing profession, for it has become a profession, has. one might say. lifted itself above our original idea of the bedside nurse, and the sma'l hospitals are becoming dependent to a large extent on those nurses who have gone on specializing Thirty-seven Hospital Louhy in operating-room work. X-ray. blood examinations, as well as nursing, to aid the phvsieians and surgeons practicing in the hospital. Much of the work which in years gone by we have expected the nurse to do is now, under the supervision of the trained nurse, being undertaken by hospital orderlies and maids who have been trained for the purpose and who are just as capable of bathing the patients, carrying in food frays, and keeping the rooms clean as the more skilled nurses. The highly trained nurses are thereby relieved from these duties to do the superior work which they are well trained to undertake. Perhaps the time will come when our undergraduate medical schools will turn out only general practitioners, who will not be taught the minutin' of the theories and methods they will not use when they arc in practice, but will be trained to observe the results of skilled examinations by others, especially those using laboratory methods, and to correlate them. These graduates will be taught the things necessary for them to know, largely through the exercise of the five senses. They will not start at once in every ease on a long course of time-consuming and expensive laboratory tests, but they will know rather in which eases such laboratory work should be done, and they will bring clinical medicine back relatively to the position it occupied in years gone i� v. The Albany Medieal College recently has inaugurated this educational development. Of the physician it can be said that the breadth of his life is more important than its length. To live a full life is to enjoy the Companionship of intellectual persons and with them to enjoy the interesting tilings of life, not the material things only, but those spiritual inspirations which motivate life. It is therefore with great satisfaction that we see the advancement of this medical school of Temple Cniversity with its background of love for the common man, with the human understanding of the problems of those often from humble walks of life who not only desire an education but who have proved in the past to have exceptional capacity. With a country growing as rapidly as ours, now approximately 123,000,000, with fewer medical schools and, for that matter, smaller schools, than existed when the population was 75,000,000, we must educate a sufficient number of physicians to take care of the people. And. in response to this need. Temple Cniversity in these few years since its inception lias sprung into a high place not only educationally, but as a leader in modern thought, no longer tied to tradition, and is facing the future as a new force in Americanization. Du. Mayo Receiving Degree Parkinson. Babcock. Mayor Mackey. Mayo. Henry. Hammond. Thirl}) nine PHILADELPHIA is the world’s medical center and in thi s center we are fortunate in having available the clinical material found among the leading of Philadelphia’s Hospitals • • • The following are the institutions where we have spent many happy hours profitably. � Temple University Hospital GROWING. Growing, GROWING—shrieking with growing pains, our “old. “our new. our ever-changing Temple University Hospital, ’t es. it even changed its name Beginning modestly as the Samaritan Hospital, it has expanded, it has grown, to one of the largest institutions ol' its kind in the city of Philadelphia. Its latest addition. The Babcock Surgical Ward, has increased its capacity to 375 beds. The installation of the new X-Ray department, has made it one of the leaders in this Held of work, and the removal of the greater portion of the out-patient department to the new Medical School Building, enables it to further increase its capacity. A guardian of the health of North Broad Street and surrounding sections. Temple I'niversity Hospital has had its doors opened to the needy for over a quarter of a century. It has been the abode of the Junior and Senior students since the inception of the Medical School, but now, with its twin building on the opposite side of the. street, all four classes have one home. The Temple I’niversity Hospital has remained the most important cog in the teaching system of the Medical School. It is here, that most of the clinical teaching is done. Its large wards in Medicine and Surgery, its laboratory buildings, autopsy rooms and private laboratories for original research, have given the students great opportunities in the acquisition ol the art as well as the science of Medicine. Its advances have equaled that of any other institution of its kind in the country, and with new men bringing new ideas to an institution already great and striving to be greater, the future holds unlimited possibilities in its work of alleviating human ills. May its growing pains never cease . . . Fot iii-onc Garret son-Greatheart Hospital TYPICAL of Temple University's history, The Garrctson-Greatheart Maternity Hospital also had a humble inception by that broad-visioned and beloved humanitarian. Dr. Russell H. Conwcll, who dedicated it on April 27. 1923. It consisted 1 thirty beds-, but this has been doubled since. The medical stall is composed of members of our obstetrical faculty and to them we owe our knowledge of practical obstetrics. It would not he amis , to mention the start' of graduate nurses who have always aided and encouraged us as embryo obstetricians. The Senior class is assigned in rotating pairs to this hospital and live here until tin quota of “baby snatching” has been accomplished. Who will ever forget the mad dashes, deshabille, then the breathless spurt into the delivery room. Who, among us. will not remember those unwarranted hours spent in anxious waiting . Dare any be treacherous enough to discard the vision of that lirst outside call, when, “with small chaser hag” in hand, and a tumultuous heart, we beat our way through maxes of city streets in the quiet of the night ? The growth of the Garretson-G real heart Maternity Hospital lias been tremendous for its brief span of existence and it is to lie regretted that the demand for beds exceeds the supply. As to it' future, much is expended of an institution open to all creeds and races, whose principal aim i to be of sendee to those with little or no means, and i another instrument of a Greater Temple ('nirersitif for the administration ■� ! good to the community and service to humanity. Fort j ‘i ico The Philadelphia General Hospital THE Philadelphia General Hospital will always In associated in our minds with Wednesday. It was on this day, when as Juniors and Seniors, we wore given the privilege to use the wealth of material in every line, which is found here, and to augment our medical knowhlgc and Aesculapiau Art. The greatest of all hospitals of its kind has been situated at its present site since 1834. The Almshouse was first located at Third and Pine Streets and wjb commonly spoken of as “The Green Meadows.' According to Agnew, “Green Meadows was the oldest hospital in the country, having been founded in 17.31. In 1 H 7 the institution was moved to Tenth and Pine Streets and was called tin “Bettering House. ' In IHS'J, by order of the legislature, the present site was purchased in Blockley lownship and it is from this township that the hospital has derived a name, which, while not otTieial. has nevertheless clung to it persistently. It was at Or. Gerhard’s suggestion, the man whose careful investigation established the distinction between typhoid and Typhus fevers, that the name of “Philadelphia Hospital ’ was adopted and remained the official name. In that year the three main divisions of the institution were culled “The Philadelphia Home and Hospital for the Indigent, which sheltered the paupers; the insane department was called “The Philadelphia Hospital for the Insane, ' and the hospital proper was known as “The Philadelphia General Hospital ’ As a hospital in which to spend one’s “student days ’ it cannot he surpassed, for the great amount of teaching which goes on within its walls assures the student that the important work which he receives will equip him for the practice ol' medicine. Forty-three The Jewish Hospital THK large, spacious, modern institution located at York and Talwr Roads is the .Jewish Hospital. It began its career as a small and modest building on Westminister Avenue, at Hnverford Road and Fisher’s Avenue, now Fifty-six Street in West Philadelphia. on September 23, 1865. It has expanded and grown until it now occupies twenty-three acres. The inscription over the Men's Surgical Ward be-t states the aims and purposes for its existence. It reads as follows: “This hospital was erected by the voluntary contributions of the Israelites of Philadelphia and i dedicated to the relief of the sick and wounded without regard to creed, color, or nationality under the management of a Board of Members of the Jewish Hospital A ssociation.” And so it is—though erected bv Israelites, it, like the ailments that afflict mankind, knows no race, creed or color. Its 426 beds with a resident -staff of 12 and a Chief Resident are constantly at the disposal of those seeking relief from suffering. It has in addition to it- resident staff, 115 student nurses, 35 supervisors, one chief nurse and assistant, an Fdueational Director and assistant. Temple I'niversity became affiliated with the hospital in 1928 through the kindness of its Board of Managers. Six hours a week are -pent in ward walks under the guidance and supervision of Dr. Joseph Donne, formerly superintendent of the Philadelphia General Hospital, but now Medical Director of the Jewish Hospital. Its wealth of medical and surgical material has been a great asset to the Seniors and we are indeed deeply indebted and very grateful to authorities who have granted us the privileges at their great institution. Forty-four The Municipal Hospital BEGINNING sis the Pest House at Ninth and Spruce Streets in 172(5 and then disappearing only to reappear again in time of need, at some place more remote from the daily haunts of Philadelphians, the hospital in 1865, found a home at Twenty-second and Lehigh, crude to he sure, but serving its purpose until 1909. This year marked the completion of a group of thirty-one separate buildings, built at a cost of about two million dollars and embodying the last word in hospital construction. In 1908, the year previous, our friend, Dr. Samuel S. Woody, took up his duties as .Medical Director and Superintendent—which he has been discharging with so much credit to the hospital and himself ever since. The then distant site was chosen because, as Dr. Woody says, With everyone holding tin misconception that infectious diseases were disseminated through the air. it was thought that no more isolated spot could be found than this which was, and is, bounded by farm land, a brick yard, and two cemeteries; now we know that the institution could stand at Broad and Chestnut Streets with perfect safety to the community. This institution which has so well served this great city through the preservation of the health and lives of its younger generations that have come within its domain, i equipped to take care of 1,150 cases in the event of an epidemic, and regularly treats 5,000 patients a year. Municipal or Muni. as it is so familiarly called, is the largest hospital for contagious diseases in the Western Hemisphere and probably has more acute cases than any other such hospital in the world. Since 1909 some 90,000 eases have been given “tender care under her roof, most of whom have been suffering from “scarlet and “diphtheria. Every such case is brought to it in its special ambulance, as is required by law. Forty-five The Eagleville Sanatorium SEVKXTY-SIX acres of ••Country Homes” is vhat the Eagleville Sanatorium appears to the uninitiated. Spacious and delightful both in outwaul ami inward appearance, this group of buildings encompass a modern hospital, a convalescent building, a children’s pavilion, ten cottages for recuperating patients, a nurses’ training school and home, in conjunction with an administration building, dining hall, power plants, etc. It was founded in 100!) by Dr. A. J. Cohen, fondly called by the students T. B. Cohen.” clinical professor at Temple University Medical School, and his stair. The sanatorium is one of the most modern and finest equipped in the country for the treatment of diseases of the chest. Everything is handled there, from the convalescing tuberculous patient to flu one developing an acute surgical complication requiring a major surgical operation. It i probably best known for its work in the surgical treatment of Tuberculosis. It was among the first in the country to test the efficacy of artificial pneumat borax and today this treatment is accepted the world over. In addition, when indicated, chest surgery is employed and the high percentage of successful results have proven their soundness. In addition to its large group of buildings at Eagleville, it was found necessary in 1919, to acquire a building in Philadelphia where patients were to be examined, studied, classified and guided until they were to be admitted into the sanatorium. The building is the Eagleville Dispensary, located at its new headquarters at Broad and Fitzwater Streets. It is in the Junior year that the students first make the acquaintance of Dr. Cohen, who in his calm and dignified manner makes simple the ravages and treatment of Tuberculosis. In the Senior year, the students, in sections, are given the opportunity to study tin management and sanatorium treatment of Tuberculosis. Forty-six The Shin and Cancer Hospital of Philadelphia THE Skin ;iikI Cancer Hospital of Philadelphia occupies the unique position in being the only otic ol its kind in the city of Philadelphia, and the seventh and latest to he organized in the United States. It opened its doors to the public on December 22. 1928, and has shown by its ever-growing outpatient department that it is filling a long lelt need in the city of Philadelphia. From its inception the hospital was affiliated with Temple University through Dr. Albert Striekler. its Medical Director as well as Professor of Dermatology at the Temple .Medical School. Clinics are conducted each afternoon daily and also on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings and Tuesday evenings. An average of seventy-five patients a day are being treated at the present time. Associated with the outpatient department, in the research of the cause and treatment of skin diseases, are the following special clinics that are housed in the same building: X-ray, Medical. Gastro-lntestinal, Ear. Nose and Throat. Dental. Rectal, Allergic. Pediatrics. Metabolic, Nervous. Gynecologic. Genitourinary and Tumor. The hospital also houses a modem X-ray and radium equipment for the treatment of cancer. Research in animal experimentation is being carried on. With the completion of its laboratories of Physiology. Pathology and Biochemistry, these sciences will he brought to the aid of the workers in their search for the cause of cancer. Under the inspiration of its able hauler. Dr. Albert Striekler. and the co-operation of the various departments ami start' members, the institution is progressing along lines of research that have great promise. We arc indeed fortunate to have it allied with Temple University .School of Medicine. Forty-seven The Episcopal Hospital IT is at the Episcopal that the embryo medics get their initiation into the clinical side of medicine. Under the expert guidance of Drs. Kav and Aslmrst, the Sophomore medics of Temple University are given bedside teaching. The Episcopal Hospital abounds in wealth of material, beginning modestly on July 18, 1851, when several people wore granted :« charter to build the Protestant-Episcopal Hospital upon a lot of ground running along Lehigh Avenue from Front Street eastward about one thousand feet and live thousand feet in width, it accommodated six patients during the year of 1852. and with rapid growth it served 2,951 patients it: the year of 1904, while the outdoor assistance through the dispensary handled 28,337 patients. Since this time, the Episcopal has enjoyed an unusual growth until today it has a capacity of 450 beds, affording ample teaching material for the students. It also has a very large outpatient department and a modern I y equipped building, making it one of the lending institutions in the city. Temple University Medical School feels quite fortunate to be associated with the Episcopal Hospital. Forty-eight SAriner s Hospital tor Crippled Children npHK Sh filter's Hospital for Crippled Children, located on the Roosevelt Boulevard. was established in 1920. It is a veritable palace of hope for the poor, unfortunate, crippled children, who come to it deformed and helpless to leave it restored in shape and health, ready to grow up into useful citizens. The ShrinerV Hospital for Crippled Children—six short words—yet how they combine to spread their comforting message of hope and cheer from east to west, from north to south—in and out ami up and down the length and breadth of this great land. How they echo and re-echo reaching each year to more remote regions, falling like music on the ears of hundreds and thousands of suffering and tortured little souls, calling them down the road to health and happiness.” This unit of the Shriner’s Hospitals has a capacity of 1.00 beds and a tremendously active outpatient department. Its waiting list numbers hundreds and annual turnover of patients, thousands. Temple Cniversity considers itself fortunate indeed to have its students admitted to the well tilled sunny wards, daylight operating rooms, fully equipped X-ray department and most of all to the inspiring teaching of Dr. -I. Royal Moore, it Chief Surgeon. It is here that tin Senior student of the medical school sees the subject of Orthopedic Surgery made a reality. The lucid explanations and the deft linger- of Dr. Moore, with which he transplants the insertion of a muscle, straightens a deformed extremity, molds a cast that will bring A new life and happiness to an unfortunate lot. make the subject a living one for the student, and leave an indelible memory of smiling face- of unfortunate children made happy by his skill. It is much thank- that both Temple I'niversitv and it- student- have to offer to the Board of Governors of the Shriner’s Hospital for Crippled Children, for the privilege they have given them.

Librarian to the School Miss M. 1‘kki.a Secretary to the Dean Xinety-tico Faculty Message 'TIN- four years which you have spent in the School of Medicine of Temple I'niversity are - • only the beginning- only the preparation of your mind and an implanting f a few choice seeds for future fruitfulness. These seeds, if properly cultivated l y regular study and observation will lead each of you into lives of great usefulness. Large institutions with well-equipped ln'iorotorics are necessary and in recent years medical science has been wonderfully advanced by the work accomplished in them, but it must not he forgotten that equally as much has been done by the lone practitioner. Koch was a country doctor; .leaner was a general practitioner. Crawford V. Long was a country physician in Georgia. Opportunities abound in all branches of medicine to still further extend the horizon of our knowledge and it is my sincere hope that the members of this graduating class may take advantage of some of them. To the ('hiss of in.11. Temple Iniccrsity School of Medicine: YOl’ have my hearty congratulations upon the successful termination of your course in medicine, and that yours is the lirst class to be graduated from tin new medical school. You have chosen tin most noble of all professions. Live up to its traditions in the fullest measure. Serve humanity as did the Nazarene. 1 o everything to promulgate the art and science of medicine, and maintain its principles of ethics. Knowledge for its own sake is a glorious pursuit, but there are other kinds of know], edge as honorable and as praiseworthy and as deserving the name. The reduction of the death-rate that saves multitudes of lives is as much “science and absolutely as noble an aim as the knowledge of the construction ami evolution of nebulas billions of billions of miles away. Do your share in preventive medicine. ISest wishes for a most successful and useful career. To the ('hiss of in.il: IT IS with a distinct sense of loss that I see you leave the doors of this institution. I feel a close personal relationship with the Class of I'.t.Jl. sime you ate the lirst class |( which I presented the new course m physical therapeutics. ou have had an opportunity t„ establish traditions, and you have grasped that opportunity willingly. � on are the lirst class to inaugurate a Class Day ceremony. You have the distinction ot being tin lirst class to have lu'en graduated since the opening of the new medical school huibling. � our scholastic rating has been excellent. With such an undergraduate record, the members should go ft„ to even greater achievements after graduation. . . Mnv everv one of von reflect credit upon the great and growing institution which has launched you on your career: May every one of von reach the heights of success in |,is chosen profession!

None have had a nobler burden. Thousands live today who. without its light, would be dust. By purity of life, steadfast altruism of purpose, unending industry in service, keep brilliant the 1 lippocratic flame bequeathed to you. May it never grow dim. nor smoke, nor smudge in your hands. No To the Senior ('Iasi: GREETINGS to mv fellow Students. Welcome to tlie ranks of the Aeseulapinns. You have reached your present coveted position | y dint of application, under the guidance of your teachers. From now on you will cut loose from systematic tutelage, hewing out your owii path according to your lights. As resident physicians in hospitals. I trust that you will never cease to live up to your moral obligations. Tact, courtesy and conscientious service will reflect credit equally upon yourselves, and upon your Alma Mater. Habits of (bought and work acquired in your early career, are apt to dominate you later. May your ideals be high, and may your physical and mental equipment enable you to extract the greatest joy and profit from your work, and assist you to cope successfully with the trials and disappointments which will inevitably confront you at times. It is with regret that I say adieu to the class of l!Kil. I cherish the hope however, that 1 may continue to enjoy vour friendship and esteem as individuals. Always yours sincerely.

Medical School of ottr 1'nivevsity. To the teacher it is a job done, a.id wH 1 done. To the Youth it is the beginning, the real start of the battle in and for life. Our founder. Hr. ('unwell, once was asked what he considered his greatest ambition, and lie simply answered, “To Live! You, the Class of 1 ! :{ 1 are most generously, and advantageously endowed with qualities to live! Further it is your charge, your duty to enhance it in others—to bring the tinhorn into it—to extend it, ami to make it better for those about you This indeed is the noblest of professions—to live; to beget life: to lengthen its span: and to make it happy with fullness of health. As we. your teachers, see you come, and then go onward, let it be our wish, that you succeed ! If your success parallels that of your institution during the time you spent in it. it will lie success of the highest. Ve, as individual teachers, have given you our all. and you, with this collective assimilation. must succeed. There is but one additional requirement.- that is character. Herein again we have faith in you. We believe that von cannot fail us. We honor you. we salute you! Must not the master how to his pupil, as the latter takes the place of the muster in the spin of time? Farewell to you!—Class of 1031. and may you attain your ambition “To Live in all its fullness, and without bitterness! Sincerely yours, oJ To the Class of Uhl I: Hear Friends: IT IS with no small degree of pleasure that 1 write a word for your year book. As a group of fellow workers the class-room and laboratory were pleasant places of contact, mutually I hope, and with reasonable belief that such was the case. You are about to reach the culmination of your undergraduate instruction, and. looking to that larger career which has been your dream. (Jo to the several interneships with the determination that you are going to formulate a basis of practical experience, doing all in your power to acquire that degree of proficiency in medical art which will make of the practice years, just what you would have them to he. Decide to study each patient brought to your attention with that conciseness that brings beneficiary results. Learn to appreciate each person as an individual, and that the law of averages is only relative. Make of each “the case and not just “a cast'. Happiness in medical work is only to those who arc willing to sacrifice time and earnest effort. May your professional lives he all that can come to you in the way of success, and I mean that success can he truly summed up in the sentence well done thou good and faithful servant.” Your friend and colleague. To the Class of likil: THIS class-room for the 1031 Medical group of Temple Fniversity is at an end. Apparently all your major and minor examinations have Ijcen passed, but let me just say in bidding you � od speed, that your major examinations are yet to come. The acid test of what you have learned from your school instruction is not only the ability to apply your knowledge at rlie bed side, but to put yourselves whole-heartedly into everv individual problem. The latter is many times more important when combined with a little common sense than is a theoretical book knowledge. My onlv advice to yon is this: consider how you would want your own family treated and then act accordingly. — Xiitetij-fire Cl IX1CAI. facts arc alwnvs facts: inference arc often erroneous; distinguish between them ami record them separately: medical literature has them hopelessly confused. Sincerely yours. To the ('lass of 1031: Yl r are this year reaching a goal toward which you have long anti faithfully worked. You are to be congratulated on the completion of this accomplishment which entitles you to commence a greater one. N other generation of men in any country or in any profession have had greater opportunities than you now have, and with every opportunity there comes a corresponding responsibility. May you so meet these obligations that you can to yourself truly say—I have done my best: I have been true to my profession; 1 have helped my fellow men. This is success. This I wish you. To My Senior Class: yOI’ are now members of the medical profession and most of you are ventriloquists as well, having developed the avocation in answering at roll call for your absent classmates. The former accomplishment is deserving of unmeasured praise, the latter I am prepared to forget. Throwing off this attempt at facetiousness and becoming more serious. I wish to counsel you upon two matters: First, that you never forget that you are an alumnus of the Temple Medical School, that you owe your membership in this noble profession to her. that until tliis time you have taken everything and given nothing. Your time for service lias conic and it is your duty to aid in every way. materially and spiritually to the progress and advancement of your Alina Mater. Secondly, in your enthusiasm for aiding the advancement of science in the role of a specialist, do not overlook the necessity of providing yourself with the thorough background in general medicine so essential for successful specialization in any Held. I.est we forget we are consecrating our lives to humanity ... To tin Senior Class oj 1031: IN SEPTEMBER. 11 27. we welcomed you l.� our lecture rooms and laboratories.

From this symbol of progress, thov should receive the stimulus of accomplishment and perfection which should make their work and contributions a credit to their Alma Mater. I t the new Medical School represent the importance of these fundamental sciences throughout all of clinical medicine and let the experience in the clinics and wards of tIn-hospital represent the consultation advice and instruction as to how these fundamental principles become involved and are properly handled. The young clinician of the future will have little difficulty in establishing for himself a creditable place in any community ns the intelligent minister to human suffering if he follows closely the fundamental laws of the basic sciences. May the members of the Class of 1!)31 carry close to their precepts tin- oath of Hippocrates and never relinquish for a moment, the age-old tradition in medicine that tin-doctor still represents the high priest whose desire and aims are continually directed toward the relief of human suffering without regard to the sacrifices and limitations that such a calling places upon those who carry on tin- highest standards in medicine. As the first delegates from our new medical school, a great responsibility rests upon you to add to the luster of 1 cm pie 1 Diversity's name and so I join in wishing you every success in the work which you will undertake toward the relief of human suffering.’ TP11I-. year l-t-.l will always la- looked upon as a most important one in the history of Temple 1 Diversity Medical School, for it marks a very high point in our program of development. The Class of 1031 is to he congratulated for having had the opportunity of enjoying, for a few months, at least, the new medical school facilities, which promise so much for the future. M.v wish, for each and every one of you. as you go out to practice vour newly acquired art. is that you may prove yourselves devoted followers of Aesculapius and -Hippocrates, conscious always of your responsibilities to your fcllowman. generous and unselfish in your work, ever placing scientific accomplishment and the welfare of your patients ahead of thoughts of personal gain. If you do this, you will discover that he who serves his fcllowman will be rewarded in more ways than one.

Whatever may he your special field of endeavor in the future remember that hard and conscientious work, absolute honesty and an upright moral life is a combination that can not fail. Combine in your work a judicious mixture of the science with the art of medicine along with good common sense and an ever kindly and sympathetic attitude toward the sick regardless of race, creed or financial condition. At all times and especially in the times of perplexity, do to others as you would have done to you or yours. Of course I hope that some of you will enter upon a career of medical research as there is so much to be discovered in the cause, nature and treatment of many diseases hut enter upon this or any other special field of endeavor only in response to a special urge.

It affords me great pleasure to extend my congratulations to this class upon the completion of its course in medicine. The medical college is the primary school in your chosen profession: the great wide world is to be your post-graduate course. We. your teachers, try to give you the fundamentals of medicine and upon these may you build a name for yourself, profession and Alma Mater, that shall, by its scintillating brilliancy, penetrate many of the many remaining mysteries of our profession. I again congratulate you upon the termination of your academic course in medicine and may success ever be with you. Faithfully yours. Tk FA.MOt S Pauline valediction, paraphrased for the purpose, sets forth an all-inclusive ethical standard which I would suggest as an appropriate one for Temple's fortunate lirst class from the A'etr School of Medicine:— 'Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are demonstrably true, whatsoever things are palpahly l mc. whatsoever things are professionally honorable, whatsoever things are economically just. whatsoever things are aesthetically lorcly. whatsoever things are of unquestionably flood report it there be any transcendent personal virtue, if then be any paramount professional pride think■ on these things.

Very cordially yours, Ninety-eight To the Class of 1931: PHILADELPHIA, which in its colonial da vs founded the first medical school in this country (1765), has also established one of the latest. Although the School of Medicine of Temple I’niversitv was cradled in the twentieth century (1901), it has already seen much history during the passing generation. A survey of a tabular history of medicine which extends to the present time—as Garrison’s Chronology which begins in 7000 B.C. and concludes with 1928 A.D.— reveals that such indispensable instruments as Einthoven’s string galvonometer, Riva-Rocci’s sphygmomanometer, Siedentopf and Zsigmondy’s ultramicroscope, Atwater’s respiration calorimeter, Sauerbruch’s pneumatic cabinet, and the Coolidge tube; the epoch-making experiments of Carrel on tissue transplantation and of Jacques Loeb on the dynamics of life, Bavliss and Starling’s discovery and development of hormones, Hopkins and Funk’s investigation of vitamines, Sorensen’s concept of hydrogen-ion concentration—arc all dated subsequent to 1901. Our knowledge of syphilis has been entirely modernized since that time. When our school opened its doors, Schaudinn had not vet seen the specific organism of syphilis. Metchnikoff had not yet infected the higher apes with this dreaded disease of man, Xeisser had not demonstrated that the lower apes were likewise susceptible, Wassermann had not yet introduced his diagnostic test, Wagner von Jauregg had not yet treated paretics with the malarial parasite, and Ehrlich and Mata had not begun the experimental labor which was to result in arsphenamine and neoarsphenamine. The present era is by far the most brilliant in the entire history of the healing art. Instead of the pompousness and pretense which reigned so long in the chairs of medicine, the genuine teacher of today declares with Carl Voit: “You need not believe anything that I tell you in my lectures, you need believe only wlmt I can demonstrate to you.” The advent of this new spirit into medicine was of more importance than the discovery of a score of druy ! It is a privilege to occupy the first Chair of the History of Medicine in Temple I'niversity School of Medicine, and I desire to put down in your official annual what I have already told you in person; that I will never forget my first class—the class of 1931. It is both my belief and sincere wish that every one of you will walk worthily in the footsteps of Hippocrates, nor can I deny myself the hope that among your number there may be some whose future achievements will be recorded by the historians of medicine Ninety-nine .Toskimi HOI.TOX Treasurer EUWAKI) lil.OOM Secretary One hundred tico Class History “My mind lets go a thousand things Like dates of rears and deaths of kings, And yet recalls the very hour—” WHEN on September 19, 1927, we first gathered in academic session it was a real tl rill. It was the beginning of something new. There was no one ignorant of the hardships ahead yet none lacking the courage to proceed. That day is still a memorable one. There was a spirit of newness while an aura pervaded that it had all occurred in some dim past. Going to school was an old story to us. Going to medical school was strangely new. In that first session in a little room on Buttonwood Street given the impressive title “The Annex,” we met Dr. Saylor. Dr. Roxby was there and Dr. Krusen, too. In kind phrases they welcomed us to our careers. They warned us of the pitfalls and held forth the reward of graduation to the survivors, if any. The. wistful recital of Stevenson’s “Eulogy to a Physician,” by Dr. Krusen, left us in a state of calm devotion to the character. In the meantime we were told that we were the best class to enter the school and were the cream of a large crop of applicants. Not for one moment did we doubt it. September quickly passed and with it went dreams leaving gross reality confronting us. Science, we learned, was the Master of all things and Knowledge was all powerful. Wisdom was yet another thing. Anatomy, chemistry and bacteriology, among other things, made us doubt whether we were really studying medicine. Not that we had much time to speculate about it, but our vanity was piqued by their stark details. Then came a menacing bogey to lift its head and grin in fiendish delight. And we could not banish the thought that sometime, someone was going to give u. a surprise and the reward would not be apt to arouse gaiety. The routine of lectures and laboratory still permitted many jollities. Surelv no history of a medical class could be complete without some recollections of the anatomy laboratory. We were fortunate in having for Professor of Anatomy, Dr. John B. Hoxbv, a superb wit, and a darn good Irishman to boot. Hoxby had a fund of stories whose end was not plumbed while we were there. His stories of the pilot, the load of manure and the Irishman, and other tales will probably be retold year after year. Vet so vivid are they and with such drollery does he tell them that their antiquity will but serve to increase their flavor. Hoxby could also “spill” other yarns. According to him he made wonderful diagnoses when he practiced medicine. He never erred. One hundred four Our only regret whs his illness which caused him to leave us for several months. Vet such was the man that he taught us Hell’s palsy thoroughly while demonstrating the symptoms upon himself. In contrast to the rollicking humor of Koxhy was the sagacious wit of one Melvin A. Saylor. There were probably few who really understood the heart of this sage of Buttonwood Street, but none who failed to appreciate his humor. lie knew every student because of his interest in them. And how he could tell a story. His gestures were impeccably fitted for the story or the experiment he wished to illustrate. Who can ever forget the tale of the dog, the strychnine and the chloroform? At the first formal meeting of the class in executive session under the guidance of a Sophomore mind, the following were elected to office: President........................Ciiaui.es K. Keli.ows, J i:. Vice-President................................Kdward Klee Treasurer ................................Herman G. Rnux Secretarif.................................Lewis Mkrklix And well did they serve. Not long after we had settled into the routine of things the Sophomore class, following the tradition of the school, welcomed the Freshman class in a manner fitting to the occasion. And our own class not to be outdone in gentility reciprocated in regal fashion. One hundred fire Dr. John I. Fan taught us Bacteriology, parasitology and immunology, and lie taught us well. Later events showed that nowhere was a more efficient course in the subjects given. He belayed us fore and aft and sidewards; all the time teaching us the tricks of a bacteria and its brotherhood. Withal he left us with a fine appreciation of things scientific. Histology was taught by “Joe” Tunis. Time has mellowed the memory of what he was going to have more to say about later. And with the recollection of Dr. Soheele, who taught us Materia Medica; Dr. Kennedy, who gave a course in bandaging, and Dr. Prevost, who lectured on the history of medicine, our chronicle of the first year is nearly complete—. Except—long weeks—in anxious suspense we waited for surprises and they finally came after the greater effort had been spent in anticipation. Then one day Saylor came in looking unusually preoccupied. With little hesitation he explained the seriousness of his mission. The fact was well-known that Temple I’diversity was carrying a great educational burden with a ridiculously small endowment. Nevertheless, the highest standards were sought. Class A recognition was being sought for the medical department. The teaching staff and the hospital facilities had been approved. The lack of a building withheld recognition. The trustees had promised their utmost. It was up to the students to do their share. This they could do by approving a higher tuition fee. A deep silence ensued in which a greater understanding of these, our teachers, engulfed us. Then, at the risk of hardship to most of us, the pledges were signed unanimously. The other classes followed suit in one hundred per cent, fashion. This provided the impetus to spur the authorities on to greater deeds. Lengthy conferences followed the mysterious visits which even put unannounced exams in the background. Soon after, the welcome news of a proposed new building and Class A rating was announced. It was a fitting tribute to splendid effort on the part of our preceptors. Class elections alone remained to he disposed of. The following were elected: President . . . Vice-President Treasurer . . . Secret nr if . . . Finally, examinations, then home! It was a great year, a splendid year of effort. Proudly we went home. If it were permitted us to select a motto, we could think of none better than “To labor in faith. To achieve over despair. .Vvrmax Nath n son . . . Kocco F. Tarasi .....Herman Ur bin IIakkv Jav ErsTKix Our hmnlrnt sir Sophomore Year “Beauty is truth. truth beauty—that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know—” As proudly we left in June so we proudly returned in September, 19 28. J he time is well remembered bv all of us. It was like the return of the Olympian ictors with their crowns of laurel. Possibly we had not matured to recognize September as merely signifying return. Although several changes greeted us our course continued in its essentials from where we had dropped off so abruptly in June. Physiology replaced Anatomy as our major course and Dr. Hickey was in charge of it. He welcomed us with an informal address in which he said little, but hinted at dark days before us. He labored hard to instill into us not only the wherefores of a functioning cell, but the experimental method as Claude Bernard had elaborated it nearly a century before. 11 is terse lectures, his exquisitely drawn illustrations, and at times his browbeating bluster, were all part of a character. Whether he knew much or little is still a mystery—of his ability to instill fundamentals there was no doubt. There was just enough of the scientist, about him to command awe. but more than enough of the teacher to prepare us for future forays into medicine. The physiology laboratory was an endless source of delights and mortifications. 'Phe simple apparatus at first presented infinite intricacies until familiarity rendered its use subject to our any whim. The slippery toads also learned to hearken to their masters' commands. Even the smoking of a drum was in time accomplished without making us appear theatrical. 'Phe really unforgettable incident in physiology was the delicacy of procedure pursued in presenting us with an unannounced examination just before one of the holidays. This year Fan took us to task even more than last year with the able assistance of Drs. Gault and McCrae. He taught us cellular phenomena as they occurred post-mortem and called it pathology. Drawing upon some secret source of energy he performed the unusual stunt of lecturing two hours at a stretch; and a double-jointed scratch or two. I’ndor the watchful eyes of his assistants we labored painfully over impossible representations of a microscopic picture of a liver or lung. I'nder the critical eyes of our conscience we labored sometimes in preparation for an unannounced exam which never came anyway. Instead we worked fitfully over the possible questions that could be asked in an oral grilling whose aftermath was not so disconcerting as the prognostications would warrant. In between times we tendered the Freshman Class a traditional reception to the strains of jazz music and its improvisations. The compliment was returned in time. A great blow occurred to the class in the loss of the services of Dr. o Sajous through a sudden demise. We had hardly known him long enough to be properly inducted into the intricacies of drug action. His loss was thus doublv mourned. One hundred green As Sophomores I)r. Savior was in the midst of completing our instruction in chemistrv when lie met with an unfortunate accident which caused his absence for a few months. Never was he so appreciated as during this time. We missed not only his excellent lectures but his friendliness. I'pon his return to duty he was greeted by a heartfelt ovation that brought forth a whimsical smile of gladness. Once more we sat back in ecstasy as he resumed his impeccable gestures and rollicking drollery. Koxbv taught us neuro-anatomy under the influence of a new fund of stories. What a man! A story a minute with never a repetition served to minimize to the least the unfathomable courses of neural tracts. I'nannounced exams were still with us and with all the material to absorb the year was almost a nightmare. From the first two weeks of wandering hither and yon looking for the proper classroom until the last day of school frustration after frustration was crowded upon us. The details are still painful. Let them rest undisturbed like Shakespeare’s bones. At this time rumor ran rampant with stories of the new building. The finest, the best, the most modern, were the descriptive adjectives used concerning it. Our curiosity was aroused almost to the exclusion of everything else. When the truth was finally let out we learned that plans were in the formative stage and construction would start almost any day. This was cheering news indeed. It is highly probable that each of us then and there determined that he was going to be one of those to graduate from the new building. Amidst all these activities it was a relief to attend some classes. Thinking that it would be a good idea for the Sophomores to see their city, a laboratory course was included in the course in Hygiene as given by Dr. Hartley. With threats and cajolings we were invited to such places as the sewage plant, the water works, a newspaper plant and even Wanamaker’s Store. Dr. Schecle was given another chance to teach us materia medica. From later recitations it appears as though he had nearly succeeded. In contrast to other active lectures the benign, southing words of Dr. l iman as he discussed physical diagnosis were peculiarly adapted to produce a somnolent effect. As we needed little urging to that most of us succumbed to Morpheus. Possibly all of the excitement that normally attains to a class had taken place before the Christmas holidays because the second half of the year was drudgery ground out in dread suspense which petered out feebly when the frustration of not receiving any unannounced exams dawned upon us. This period was marked by persistent absence of anything interesting or elucidating. The elections this year elevated these to office: President .........................................Chester Reynolds Vice-President .......................................Fred Sheciitku Treasurer...............................Rocco F. Tarasi Secretary...............................Frank Sciiooi.ev Our finals were welcomed as the end of a trying year. They meant a violent bearing down effort for one week till it was c.!l over. What a year! One hundred nine The Junior Year In men ?chom men condemn as ill find so much of (joodness still. In men idiom men pronounce divine, I find so much of sin and blot, I do not dare to draw a line lietjceen the two. where God has not. The insensible change wrought through the summer was no more typical than the very carriage of the class as they drifted idly back to school. Raw youth that had been a Sophomore had matured and with maturity had come wisdom. Whether it was the change in environment, whether it was the greater aura of friendliness, perhaps it was just a whim of fate. It cannot he explained, vet so certain was this sublimation of pure science into applied wisdom that even Babcock’s informal address of welcome failed to swerve the confidence of this Junior class. Even as the class had altered so had the school changed. A new regime had occurred that breathed a new spirit into the school. Dr. Parkinson had been installed as Dean replacing Dr. Hammond who was made Dean Emeritus. Dr. Chevalier Jackson came to the school as Professor of Laryngoscopy and Esophagoscopy. A new operating suite had been constructed especially for the use of this international figure in medicine, making it the finest department of its kind anywhere. Dr. Winkelman and Dr. Fay were appointed to the chairs of Neurology and Neurosurgery, respectively, and they gave promise of splendid work. Dr. Ersner was appointed Professor of Otology in recognition of his wide clinical experience. In the pre-clinical subjects Dr. Livingston was appointed Professor of Pharmacology and Dr. Pritchard, Professor of Histology and Embryology. Therefore, when school once more sounded its note of travail it found a new class in a new setting. Before us we found a roster of somo-and-twenty courses all in a row. Between the classes, like a city street between skyscrapers, were sandwiched in some clinics. Dr. Babcock led us in “organ” recital on Mondays and Tuesdays at nine. 1'nder his adroit questioning as an orchestra under the baton of a conductor he extracted such surgery from us as was never known and probably never even considered previously. Such brilliant therapeutic measures as removal of the pancreas and excision of the aorta were as putty in our expert hands. With one eye on the book and one eye on its author we sat and waited for the fatal utterance of a name. 1'nder the influence of soothing, caressing tones from a well-modulated voice we sat and wondered how one man could amass all the information Dr. Robertson possessed and yet live. For hours he entranced us and left us wondering where was the end of things, and where, if at all, was the beginning. Then, in order to give proper flavor to the course, two more hours were added to the roster and Dr. Klein, who was appointed Professor of Applied Therapeutics, lectured on various diseases. One hundred ten As Jtxioks The rumors concerning the new building culminated in the news that the official ground-breaking would take place on October 14, 1929. In order not to be outdone by the authorities an unofficial, though none the less spectacular ground-breaking was accomplished bv certain members of the class on the eve of the occasion. The subsequent amazing feats of engineering incident to erecting a structure suitable for future Temple Medical students permitted us languid relaxation in those hours when classes or clinics bored us. A more personal diversion was the annual election of Juniors to membership in the various societies. In order to provide an outlet for that particular specialty we have it to our honor that the Winkchnan Neurologic Society took it.s place among the other time-honored societies under impetus from our classmates. Our first experiences in obstetrics were quite novel. When the self-importance of being awakened in the early hours of the morning to watch a delivery had deflated itself once or twice the thrill of being a hero soon wore off. Thereafter, we were content to sit at ease and listen to the highly energetic lectures of Dr. Arnold. Probably no class before had seen so many cases demonstrated as I)r. W'inkelman showed to us. Moreover, in his discussion of the case he had that delightful characteristic of making the most outlandish diagnosis seem childishly simple. It was not long before we realized the impracticability of making diagnoses over the telephone. We had with us again unannounced examinations. We were neither delighted with the status quo nor content to endure it. After much ado a petition was presented to the faculty and when we returned in January our pleasure was immense to find the petition granted. And still we listened. The lectures seemed to be without end. Nevertheless, there were few who missed lectures in Genito-l'rinarv Surgery, or Gynecology. Dr. Thomas reminded us of Dr. Koxby for his faculty of having a fund of good stories on hand. Dr. Hammond spoke so rapidlv it was easier to take the lectures than copy them. But the real speed-artist was Dr. Clark. ide open windows in zero weather seemed to stimulate his vocal cords bevond normal physiological capacity. To Dr. Savitz we are grateful for a simple, common elucidation of the day by day therapeutic measures one is likely to use in the practice of medicine. Dr. Mills will always command our respect not only for his abilitv to reduce pediatrics and tceding schedules to an understandable nature, but for his moral encouragement and his promise to make us all Seniors, as far as pediatrics was concerned. But it was the many specialties of medicine which saved the vear from the utter routine it might have been. Here we were blessed with teachers who held kindliness and humor upon a high plane. In this respect Dr. Bidpath and his associates rank high. Dr. Krsner too kept us in a continual uproar with his puns and quips while he taught us otology. One hundred I ml re Dr. Stricklcr gave us many a cause for laughter by telling us that the only reason he could stay awake at his own lectures was that he had to do tin-talking. In order to keep us awake he just talked louder. Many a man will poke fun at some other specialty and avoid his own. This was not I)r Hibsh-inan's shortcoming. lie never .-.hied at an opportunity of poking fun at the “rectal side of the house.” Dr. Peter was more subtle than openly amusing as he impressed upon us the necessity of specialists. Dr. Krusen had no shortcomings—the difficulty being that we could never quite get the signal when his story was supposed to he funny. Dr. Hudson should have been an engineer. He knew all the angles. Last, hut not least, Dr. Steel, “Hilly” Steel. Ilis lectures and clinics never failed to attract the class to full attendance. True to Temple tradition, and once again holding alof the banner of ‘J1. the student body officially hade farewell to tin- Class of 19 JO through tin formality of the Annual Skull Dance. The affair was worthy in every respect not only of the school, hut of the classes partaking in it. The time to examinations was now getting shorter and shorter. The strain of a hard year was beginning to show its effects in haggard faces and irritable nervous systems. Thus the annual society banquets afforded an outlet of relief. Then one more official act remained to he completed. The following men were honored with the leadership of our class in the Senior yea r: President....................................II. B. Power Vice-President ............................Jos. II. Jr no Treasurer..........................................Joseph Holton Secretarti................................Kowaiid Bi.oom Kxaminations are better left undescribed. for two weeks we ate and slept medicine and when it was over it was a case of every man forgetting in his own particular fashion. One hundred thirteen As Seniors Dr. Babcock Operating The Senior Year You to the left and I to the right. For the ways of men must sever And it icell may he for a day and a flight. And it reel I may be forever. With the fall of 1930 came the full fruition of wisdom. Pure knowledge was a shambles and science a Hitting specter. Kverv patient was an open hook written in a native tongue, and histories and physicals were done to perfection without the batting of an eye. As fingers became deft, eyes were lucid and ears became the court of last appeal. But what of the new school? Let some other pen more graciously describe its detail. Let another sing a paen of praise. Let us tell how it was four walls, beautiful walls, sturdy walls. In its awkward newness one feared to touch the new paint or scuff the polished floors. Some day antiquity will have rendered it roseate and familiar. Time will tear down those walls and leave in place of them Temple I'diversity Medical School. It hardly seems necessary to say how proud we were to be its first Senior class. Here is long life to the new building—may many Senior classes depart proudly from its doors. Hardly had the builders put away their tools and sea reel v had we become accustomed to this new building when the dedication exercises were held. On Wednesday, October loth, the officials of the 1 Diversity, the faculty, trustees, guests, and the students assembled in academic procession. It was a proud day for Temple and the students were the proudest of all. Dr. Beurv, President of the 1 niversitv, outlined the history of the medical school from its humble beginning thirty years ago as a night school, to itaustere present at the pinnacle of modernity. Dr. Wm. J. Mayo delivered the address of dedication. A thoughtful, timely address it was. Thus, as the carillon thundered its “Recessional,” ended the exercises. Once more classes and clinics beckoned to us. The classes were few and the clinics many with idle hours strewn all the way between. The year was one of travail interspersed with the serious comedy of selecting interneship and the grim efforts to attend the far flung clinics at Shriner’s, .Jewish, Kagle-ville, Municipal Hospital, Philadelphia General, and the Skin and Cancer Hospital. In addition a ten days’ vacation was provided to make certain that we got our share of night life in a big city. This vacation was spent individually at Great heart. Thus time nutured us in its mill of fury through the endless days. There was much in the way of official class business to be done. A vigorous Ski m. Staff was appointed, chieftained by Tarasi. which worked faithfully at the task of producing the Year Book of the Class of 1931. One luindri'tl fifteen The Skull Dance is still to come with its semi-official note of parting. Then banquets and meetings galore to gently wean us away from days of school. Still later. Class Day with its sweet-sad note of upheaval of the classes. Then examinations, and finally graduation with its own official good bye. As the class goes forth from commencement it will take time to prove whether the mountain had labored to bring forth greater than a mouse. This is graduation when it is difficult to harbor regret or malice. For us graduation will not come again, merely life thereafter. Tims should parting he. Not with tears or humbleness but with exultation. Come, let us take our rightful places as Alumni. Let us not be unmindful of these four years. Reverence your Alma Mater and ever seek to bear aloft Temple’s banner even as She has been the Mother of all of us. Farewell Temple and fare-the-well again. Jacob Pomkkant .. Dr. Louis S. Steinberg Makes History Dr. Steinberg has the unique distinction of being the first and only one to graduate from both the old and the new schools of medicine of Temple ( niversity, and yet, while a student in a sense of the word, he is a member of our teaching staff being a clinical assistant in Medicine.

One hundred eighty-one Jrxioit C' i.ass Junior Class History IF WE gaze retrospectively into the crystal of Time: we see that on the eighteenth (lav of September, in the year nineteen hundred and twenty-eight, the gods decreed that the Fates should thenceforth control the lives and fortunes of those who were to enter the portals of tlie medical school: and that these weavers of human destiny should spin four years of those lives into a mighty tapestry. An untrained mass of neophytic material tumbled into the loom of the first Fate and weaver—Koxo. He heaved a mighty sigh and began his share of the stupendous task of molding and shaping the destines of these embryonic disciples of Hip procrates. His work was void of beauty and had few variations. Day by day he worked diligently and by tenderly handling and separating the new material, he evolved sixtv-four delicate threads. To break the monotony of his task, Koxo set apart from the rest a few chosen strands to lead the others on the mystic loom—the Class Flection and he decreed that these fibres should gather together for the purpose of learning that eventually they would all be interwoven into a mighty pattern. So they shaped themselves into a mass of joyful, happy, dancing young men and women. The Frosh-Soph-Dance. One year elapsed, and to the .joy of Koxo. his work was done; to be taken up hv a second Fate—Fanzo. During the transfer of the threads, a few. too delicate to stand the strain, broke on the loom. Fanzo worked slowly and carefully in winding and fastening the war]) for the firm foundation of his handicraft. He noticed that many of the strands were weakening. Some looked pathological, some neurological- others pharmocological while others remained firm. But to the surprise of Fanzo the strands remained on the loom. Two years elapsed the Junior weaving was to begin merrily, but Fanzo found his loom too small. He called upon the Fate Sayloris for his aid. Savloris with his leadership, draftsmanship, craftsmanship, and skillfulness, constructed a new loom. A loom bigger and stronger than ever seen before. Fanzo and Sayloris both working diligently set upon the new loom, the old and new strands. To the great jov of Fanzo the pattern began to take on shape, under his skillful guidance. The weaving was temporarily stopped to give the Fates a brief respite before the final and mightiest part of the task. During this interim the threads also rest from their labors and hold a gala event to celebrate their achievement thus far, and to cheer the Senior class to fame and good fortune— The Skull Dance. One hit ml red eight g-fit'C At length, we rest and wait for the inomentuous year to arrive. Soon the spinning wheel will be taken by Atropos, the third Fate. It will be necessary for him to touch up that part of the pattern which Fanzo will leave. Soon the weaving will be finished. How many threads will be in the loom, remains a mystery. Then Atropos will step forward and cut the golden threads of “Medical Life.” Who will remain to carry forth the rare tapestry of the Class of 1932 to a finish? Fame? And the good will of the Untight God” and Hippocrates? L. '1'. McAloosb. OFFICERS President ..........................................John J.

One hundred ciyht[i-six TeTaToTnToTaiTa Sophomore Class History A FT HR due procedures of routine and formalities, the Sophomore (Mass of 19T3 got oft' to an auspicious start both socially and scholastically. To start the school year, we were greeted and honored in being the first second-year class to partake of the new building and its many accessories and facilities. We then made our first acquaintance with the Pharmacology Department (via Drs. Livingston and Larson). It was these two new additions to our faculty who were first to let the second-year class know that they still have a lot to learn by surprising us with an examination on the “do's and don'ts of drugs. This great deviation from the normal trend of affairs so upset the class that the thrill of resuming our activities with the Doctors Roxby, Fanz, Gault, and Saylor was lessened to a marked degree. Starting anew, the second year class was forced (member for member) to open the books and get down to real studying- -perchance that some of the “ole” reliables might heed to the results of the first examination and thereby O • follow suit. The suspense of awaiting the next ordeal was broken by the outstanding event of the year— The Class Dance. This greatly anticipated affair was held in the beautiful ballroom of the Majestic Hotel, in honor of the Freshman Class. It turned out to be a great success and was enjoyed by all who attended including our Dean William X. Parkinson and other members of the faculty. A word of praise should thus he given to the committee headed by Mr. Rein-heimer for having so carefully planned such an elaborate event. In resuming our activities at the Rroad and Ontario institution the next obstacle to confront the class was “warm hearted frogs, supplied so generously by the department of physiology. It was actually Dr. Hickey's lectures—so filled with witty remarks that has instilled the various members of the class to delve into physiological research work- for example, “The refractory period of heart muscle.” Assisted quite capably by Dr. Lathrop, a true exponent of accurate technique and implicit observance of directions, the course has adequately shown us the virtue of patience. The autopsy room was next dearest to the hearts of the class, as Dr. Gault so carefully outlined the technique over a period of two weeks. Finally our desires were fulfilled during the Christinas vacation days when the class witnessed an autopsy at the Philadelphia General Hospital. The Pathology department finally deemed it time to relieve the suspense that so long overhung the heads of the class like the sword of Damocles from the start of the course on “hypertrophy and hyperplasia.” One hundred eighty-nine It was Dr. Kav who so serenely endeavored to produce fascinating sounds over tin chest wall audible only to those seated in the first two rows of the class in Physical Diagnosis. % n Several pleasant trips were taken by the class under the supervision of Dr. Harriet Hartley, of the Hygiene Department; and which were a source of much practical information. “Mark you that the end product of protein metabolism in the human is not uric acid, as is seen in lower forms of life, but I'KKA, so states Dr. Saylor as he once again resumes his lectures in P. (’hem. Finally, to conclude this short episode of the history of our class, we turn our thoughts to Dr. John Koxbv. of the Neuro-anatomy department, and end with the words, “Woe be the man who goes oft' his tract.” I'resident Vice-President See ret nr ;f Treasurer . . .

Jonathan One hundred ninety Fhksiimax Class Freshman Class History IT IS the task of the class historian to trace the gradual evolution of a heterogeneous group of students from a miscellaneous gathering to a unified class. The great institutions and organizations, whether created by nature or man, must inevitably pass through four successive stages, to wit: Rise. Zenith, Decline and Death, has ever been the formula of all historians. Rome, with its vast territories and governed by its great rulers, gives testimonv of this rule. In the plant kingdom we see the validity of this very rule followed. Rut. it falls to the lot of the Class of 19. $4 to disprove the validitv of this rule. We can agree with the first two stages—Rise and Zenith hut we cannot agree with the last two stages—Decline and Death. Ret us turn back for a moment to that beautiful fall morning of September 24th as we gathered at Broad and Ontario Streets- -a diverse assemblage, whose members’ homes were interspersed through the various States of the I'nion. We were strangers among strangers in a strange land. What a feeling overcame us as we marveled at the new seven-storv building, a building fitted • r’ n to the last degree with apparatus and conveniences for our welfare and comfort—a building that was to be our home for the next four years. We had come to Temple bearing the conviction that she was the best school on earth. We had selected her as the institution which could develop for us the mental strength to win worldly success and which could implant in our hearts those virtues which would insure the accomplishment of our last end. Ere the first week had passed we were fully convinced that our selection was a good one. It was not long until we seemed just another spoke in the big family wheel and we gradually found ourselves hard at work. Our first step in organization was the nomination and election of class officers to guide us through the first stormy year of our existence as “medics.“ As the year progressed we were initiated into the workings and structure of the body by our inestimable friend, Dr. John R. Roxby, and into the structure of the cell and tissues hv I)r. Pritchard and Dr. Weigand. And then into Room 502 for a discourse on molds and bacteria, and as page after page of our notebook became filled, we wondered where we could store all this knowledge in the cranial case so ablv described by Dr. Roxby. Yet we have persevered with Drs. Fan , and Gault and have a wealth of knowledge as to our little friends of the plant world. Not to he outdone by the others Dr. Saylor and Mr. Shrader handed us unknown after unknown and stood by as we struggled with our proteoses and peptones. And as embryo physiologists we would sojourn once a week into the domain of Dr. Mickey to become acquainted with the workings of the body. Socially, as well as scholastically, we have aimed high. On March (5th. in the Ritz Carlton, we held the Annual Hop. It was pronounced by all a most successful and enjoyable affair. One hundred ninety-three As Freshmen we claim no monumental record of achievements. We have made an earnest effort to assimilate the advices so generously given by our professors. At times we may have wavered and not produced results in proportion to the labor expended. Indeed, at no time have we produced results as would Ik inestimable. Years upon years of self-sacrifice and labor in behalf of education should yield an immense harvest which no class could reap. Hut, if we have done our best, the efforts of our teachers will not have been in vain. For the greater glory of Temple, we shall strive to surpass the finest records of the most outstanding classes and thus forge another link in the continuous chain of Temple traditions.

Steel, of the Surgical Staff, met and organized the “W. Wavne Babcock Surgical Society.” The Society was founded with Dr. Steel as president. Dr. M. A. Manning as vice-president. Dr. Jules Prevoust as secretary, and Dr. II. W. Bochringer as treasurer. The purpose of this Society is to stimulate the student's interest in the fundamentals and application of surgery and to keep abreast of the rapid advancement of this branch of science. 'This Society has stood the test of time and for twenty-six years men have gone forth from its enlightening influence stimulated to accomplish greater things in the field of surgery. Several interesting meetings were held: opened by student discussions and following with a worthy address by an authority on the subject. Dr. Chamberlain's presentation of “Sacro-ilnc Sprain” was a very enlightening revelation. “Spinal Anesthesia,” by our inimitable Dr. Babcock, Honorary President of the Society, was presented only as he could do it. The social activities of the Society were climaxed by their annual banquet held at the Benjamin Franklin Hotel where main notable personages were in attendance. The closing of the year 19JO marked the laying of the cornerstone of one of the greatest projects the Society had undertaken; that of furnishing the new Babcock Surgical Ward, and nothing more fitting could be written than to enclose the words of the “tablet” placed at the entrance to the ward: “Babcock Surgical Wards, Presented by Friends of Dr. W. W. Babcock, in Recognition of Distinguished Services.” The Society has been keeping pace with the rapid advancement of the Medical School. With the impetus which the Society has gained, nothing can stop its forward progress, and even greater things than those accomplished in the year 19J1 are expected in the future.

Wyman Two hundred twelve The Undergraduate Obstetrical Society THIS Society, tin second oldest in the school, was organized in October, 1907, at a meeting called by l)r. .1. (). Arnold, for the purpose of honoring the late Dr. John (’. Applegate, who was at that time Professor of Obstetrics. As an appropriate sentiment and inspiration for the occasion. Dr. Arnold read to the “charter members,” then assembled, James Whitcomb Riley’s beautiful tribute to “The Doctor,” which had just been published, and which begins: “We may idealize the chief of men— Idealize the humblest citizen— Idealize the ruler in his chair- The poor man, or the poorer millionaire; Idealize the soldier—sailor--or The simple man of peace—at war with war— The hero of the sword or fife-and-drum. Why not idealize the Doctor some? The question before the meeting was, “Why not idealize Dr. Applegate some?” It was voted unanimously to do so, and “The Applegate Society” was launched upon its useful and honorable career. In the autumn of 1930 there was, under the direction of the Honorary President, a complete revision of the constitution, and such changes in the policies and activities of the Society as would insure the greatest benefit to its student membership, for whom it must henceforth he maintained in largest measu re. There are three distinct purposes now predominating its activities: ( 1) To give additional opportunity for advancement to students especially interested in obstetrics; (2) To afford experience and training in conducting medical meetings and in the preparation, reading, and discussion of medical papers; (3) To cultivate and enhance the value of professional sociability and esprit de corps. The membership of the Society is limited to not more than twenty students from each class—Junior and Senior forty in all. Regular meetings are held once a month. For the past year, the fundamental principle of the programs has been the presentation of clinical cases taken from the hospital records or current medical literature. These cases were presented and discussed by the students, after which the Professor of Obstetrics critically reviewed and commented upon the program as a whole, and upon its individual parts and efforts. Among the “cases” presented during the year were: “Abdominal Preg- nancy,” “Inversion of the I tems,” “Breech Presentation,” “Presistent Occiput Posterior,” and “Placenta Previa.” For twenty-four years the Society has been a credit to the Mother institution and an honor to the memory of the man in whose name it was founded. May those who carry on through the coming years maintain its good work with ever increasing interest. 7 Vo hundred thirteen Mills Pediatric Society ON THURSDAY, November IS. 1916, a group of students of the Temple I’niversitv School of Medicine met in the Library of the Professional School at Eighteenth and Buttonwood Streets, with the purpose of organizing a society whose chief interests shall be the discussion and study of pediatric problems. The Society was named the “II. Brooker Mills Pediatrics Society, and has borne this name ever since. I)r. Mills was unanimously elected an Honorary President. There were seventeen charter members. The first officers of the Society were: Henry E. Guth, president; George (� . Burgeron. vice president; Wilson Paulson, treasurer; and T. Maude Hamer, secretary. A constitution was drawn up and a motion made that monthly meetings shall be held, also that the membership be limited to fifty. The latter was raised in 1931 to seventy-five members. Seniors always bung in majority. 'Pin meetings have always been very educational and interesting, sometimes in the form of student papers and at times by prominent speakers. The last meeting of the year finds all the members of the Society gathered together at an annual dinner where joyous festivities and an evening of pleasant companionship are spent bv all the members and friends of the largest and most active undergraduate Society of the Medical School. It is our sincere hope and wish that future members will derive as many pleasures and as much inspiration by their contacts and associations with the Honorary President, Dr. II. Brooker Mills, and l)r. Samuel Goldberg, to whom we owe a great debt of gratitude for such interesting programs throughout the year. 7'iro hundred fourteen The H.

Tiro hundred sixteen The Hickey Physiological Society WITH the increased opportunities and facilities afforded by the opening of the new Medical School, there was inaugurated a new era in the activities of the Hickey Physiological Society. Our program Committee initiated a new policy which consisted of considering the various aspects of medicine bv men well versed in their subjects. These addresses were accompanied by papers from the students and demonstrations of a histological, pharmacological and physiological nature that served as introductions to the main topic of the evening. Our meetings for the year 1931 began in October, when Dr. A. (’. Morgan, Emeritus Professor of Clinical Medicine of Temple Iniversitv, addressed us on the subject of the Development and Progress of the Medical School. The first scientific discussion was delivered at the November meeting. The scheduled speaker of the evening was Dean Parkinson, but he was unable to appear before the Society. He kindly arranged for a very notable and prominent member of our faculty. Dr. Y. Wayne Babcock, to substitute for him. The Neurological View in Medicine was admirably portrayed at the December meeting when Dr. Temple Fay discussed the theoretical and practical side of the very important subject of Neurosurgery, in which he is not only a practitioner, but also an outstanding investigator. For the January meeting the members of the Society were very fortunate to hear the discussion of the Clinical Pathology of the Vascular System bv n • • • one of the foremost physicians in the city. Dr. George Morris Piersol, Professor of Medicine at the Graduate School of the Cniversitv of Pennsylvania. In order to properly celebrate the founding of the Society the Program Committee arranged for a rather startling and interesting departure from the customary procedure. The topic of the February meeting was an Expose of Spinal Therapy by a gentleman who had previously taken an extensive course in, and had graduated from the Palmer Institute of Chiropractic-Practice. The speaker was Loren H. Crabtree, a junior in the Medical School. In returning to the consideration of various aspects in medicine, we have been very fortunate to have heard Dr. James Kennedy, the noted surgeon, in a discussion of 1’rgent Abdominal Surgery. His portrayal of sudden, acute surgical cases and potential dangers of shock and infection, was a source of keen interest to the members, especially those of the Junior and Senior classes. At our April meeting, as the final guest speaker of the year, we had the pleasure of listening to Dr. Boekux, Professor of Gastroenterology at the Graduate School of the Cniversitv of Pennsylvania in his annual talk relative to gastrointestinal disorders. From his excellent and concise talk, the members obtained valuable information concerning the importance of the alimentary tract. As is the customary procedure at the May meeting, election of officers was held. Two hundred xercuhen Robertson Honorary Medical Society THK first meeting of the Robertson Honorary Medical Society was held April 7, 11)27, at which time the standards and ideals of the Society were laid down. First, as Honorary President, guide, and patron to the Society, a man was chosen who represents everything that is to be desired in one's medical life. A man whose culture and knowledge and practice of tin-science and art of medicine can truthfully be said to be unlimited and one whom every medical student would do well to emulate. Such a man is William Kgbert Robertson, M.D.. F.A.C.P.. member of Sigma Psi Honorary Scientific Society, our Professor of Theory and Practice of Medicine and Clinical Medicine. It was then decided that membership shall be limited to the twenty men in the Senior class and the ten men in the Junior class who shall have the highest scholastic ratings in their respective classes and who shall be recommended by the dean. This at once made the society an honorary society. The meetings of the group, to which non-members are invited, are given over to a discussion of the History of Medicine. Thus the student is given a chance to come in contact with the cultural aspect of medicine of which very little is met with in the regular medical curriculum. Many men of national reputation in the field of Medical History address the Society each year and several papers are presented by student members. 'Phis gives the student an opportunity to learn bow to prepare and deliver papers. These papers have afterwards been edited in well-known medical publications. The last can be found in Medical I ifc, edited bv Victor Robinson, M.l). The ideals of the Society are wcll-tvpified in its Honorary President and under his leadership has risen in but a few years to hold an enviable position in the life of Temple Medical School.

Proficiency in some one tiling is today the outstanding demand. This tendency is most emphatic and outstanding, particularly in the Medical World. We are taught to be general practitioners and to pursue our calling in the rural districts where “Country Doctor is needed. The cry for specialization is also urgent. With the purpose of advancing their knowledge in Dermatology, a group of twenty men. Senior and Junior medical students of Temple Lnivorsity, gathered at the Temple Lniversity Hospital, on October 25, 1927. It was unanimously adopted that a permanent organization be formed for the mutual advancement of and the profitable pursuit in, the knowledge of Dermatology. It was further decided that the name of this organization shall lie The Strickler Dermatological Society, in honor of Dr. Albert Strickler, our worthy Professor of Dermatology and Syphilology. The Society has wonderful opportunities of coining in contact with Dermatologic cases, through the courtesy of Dr. Strickler, medical director of The Skin and Cancer Hospital of Philadelphia. Phis is a new department along medical lines in our city, and it is most fortunate indeed, that the members of the Society have access to it. In this institution the laboratories, in conjunction with the east clinical material, will offer the best opportunities for progressive development in the treatment of diseases of the skin. During the life of this Society there have been many meetings. Worthy papers by members and clinical discussions by Dr. Strickler and his stall have added much to our knowledge of skin diseases. In addition, the various heads of other departments have delivered interesting talks at our meetings. Among those were Doctors Babcock, Robertson, Thomas, Kolmer. Also, interesting meetings were held in conjunction with the Mills Pediatric and I'nder-graduatc Obstetrical Societies at which topics were discussed relevant to each specialty.

W'inkelman. Professor of Neurology, and Temple Fay, as Professor of Neuro-Surgery. With such a stimulus before them, several members of the Class of 1931 instigated a movement that resulted in the formation of the Winkelman Neurological Society- a Society that might well be said to l c composed solely for the good of the student—since a firm foundation in neurology is a distinct aid in the comprehension of all other branches of medicine and surgery—and a Society that has for its prime object “the pursuit of research into matters pertaining to Neurology, Neuro-Surgery and Psychiatry that cannot be readily attained in the classroom.” Since its first meeting, such famous men as Doctors E. P. Pendergrass, .John A. Koliner, Edward I.odholz, . P. Eagleton, R. Grushin, and A. A. Brill have been heard discoursing on topics upon which they have devoted years of endeavor and research, and in tin future more men of such calibre will be heard and enjoyed.

Tobin Tiro hundred turntij-threc Autobiography oi the Tubercle Bacillus THE readers of Thk Sktll are accustomed to grim tales, so I will tell them my story—for none is more gruesome than mine: To the museum of London’s Koval College of Surgeons I contributed the tuberculous bones of Egyptians. The sands of time have counted centuries bv the score since I harassed the race that reared the pyramids, but I am still the world’s chronic affliction. Stand on Life’s highway and watch the passing procession: the child running by on agile feet, the maiden preparing for the betrothal, the scholar writing his book, the father working for his family. They dream their dreams without reckoning of me, but hail them when they have traveled a little farther along the road; the child has breathed me in, and now it walks with a twisted spine; one day the girl felt the blood rise in her throat, and her bridal veil will be exchanged for a sable shroud; the overworked scholar began to notice his fever and fatigue, and thought he needed a week’s relaxation, but I have sent him upon a longer vacation—and his book will remain unfinished: the father contracted a common cold, and I who had long lain latent in his body and assaulted him in vain, now overthrew the weakened defences, and laid him upon the consumptive’s bed. How jauntily that proud young athlete vaults twenty feet in air! He does not know that tomorrow I will make him limp with a tuberculous hip. Stcelgrinder, glassblower, ragpicker—I drive them from their trades; prisoner, detective, magistrate—I bathe them in such sweat that they fear the boon of sleep; diplomat, cardinal, millionaire—I humble them to the dust. I take the beggar’s brat and the emperor’s heir; the nameless and those of great renown are alike to me. I closed Spinoza’s career, and on the cheek of Botticelli’s Venus I painted the masque of death; I struck down Schiller in his prime, and wrote Finis to to the poems of Keats; I hushed Chopin’s music, and from the fingers of Clevenger I loosened the chisel: I laid Kirke White in an early grave, and drove the applauded Rachel from the stage of life. I attack skin, lungs, brains, guts and bones. At my mandate, mankind has coughed for centuries, and nearly all the humpbacks in the world are mine. I have killed more human beings than the caprices of princes. Wars and famines and pestilence, with all their toll piled together, have not made so many vacant chairs as I. Remember me when you see the crepe fluttering from the doorway. In every cemetery you behold my work. I bring the Great White Plague, and I whiten the earth with tombstones. Tiro hundred tireiity-fiee Long ago, when man worshipped gods who arc forgotten now, the father of man's medicine declared, “The greatest and most dangerous disease, and the one that proved fatal to the greatest number, was the consumption.” Man admits that these words could stand in a modern text-book. The best description of the malady I bring was written by Aretacus, and then the wise Galen uttered the warning that I was contagious; but after Galen came a strange thousand years in which man no longer studied himself, but fought about (rod. The world was filled with blood and prayer. I destroyed immense numbers, and met with no opposition. In the seventeenth century, man's intellect awoke, and I became a center of attraction. Franciscos Sylvius introduced the term tubercle; Manget gave the first description of miliary tubercles; Sydenham prescribed horseback riding in the open air as a cure, and his friend Kiclmrd Morton wrote more about me than any other individual had ever done. In the succeeding century man did not advance much further in phthisiology, and I thought his battled intellect had relinquished the quest, but then followed the nineteenth century, in which man learned more about me than in all the previous years of his existence. This century was a memorable one in my history, because it witnessed the establishment of sanitariums for the tuberculous. The first one was opened by George Bodington, of Warwickshire. He gave his patients fresh air by dav and fresh air bv night, and his results were so favorable that he committed the indiscretion of publishing an article which he entitled: “On the Cure of Pulmonary Consumption on Principles Natural, Rational and Successful.” Nothing that man has put into print was more essential to his welfare than this essay, but as soon as the doctors read Bodington's statement, “To live in and breathe freely the open air, without being deterred by the wind or weather, is one important and essential remedy in arresting the progress of phthisis, they declared that only a madman could believe these things, and Bodington's establishment was closed in ridicule, while his patients were driven out- and later the first tuberculosis sanitarium was reopened as an insane asylum! But twenty years later Bodington’s essay found a disciple. Henry McCormac. of Belfast, advocated Bodington's idea in his pamphlet on “The Absolute Prevent abilit y of Consumption.” Then Benjamin Ward Richardson, in his “Sanitary Decalog,” also argued for fresh air. But the real founder of the sanitarium treatment of tuberculosis was Herman Brehmer. Through the support of Humboldt and Schbnlein. lie was permitted to open a sanitarium—which still exists among the mountains of Silesia. His pupil, Peter Dettweiler, introduced the reclining-chairs which have become so popular with consumptives. The Brehmer of America was Kdward Livingston Trudeau. Here was a man whom I wounded for a lifetime, yet he always met me with unbowed head. In his youth he had watched, in an agony of helplessness, how I slew his beloved brother. A few years passed, and Trudeau became a physician and a husband. In this happy period of his life, I smote him and drove him to the wilderness to die. An Adirondack giant carried him upstairs under one arm. Tiro hmulral lireutij-xi.r ami said to him, “Doctor, you don’t weigh more than the dried skin of lamb.?’ Winter came, and he was warned to seek civilisation and the South. Hut this undaunted man remained in the mountains—and lived. Year after year I assailed him, and so weakened him that he could neither stand nor sit: but I could not touch that proud spirit. The sick Trudeau made the Adirondacks a symbol of hope and health. Numerous victims for whom I had prepared a casket flocked to the snows of Saranac, and returned to their work in the world. The man who cheated the grave founded the first laboratory for the study of tuberculosis in America, and his fame spread among men. I bided my time, and mv opportunity came. I took his daughter, the pride of his heart, the black-eyed Chatto. As the father worked in Ids laboratory he could hear her coughing, and not all that he had learned about me could save his child. I was master in the master’s house, and its flower was my prey. Then was Trudeau crushed, and silently the health-bringer and his wife followed the coffin, covered with evergreen boughs, and while the winds howled over Saranac, they laid Chatto under the snow beneath the solemn pines. Today my sanitariums are found in all parts of America—from the Adirondacks of the East, across the vast continent, where the mountains of Siena Mad re reach down to the orange groves that are mirrored in the Pacific. Indeed, the earth is now dotted with hospitals that hold my victims. Brehmer’s sanitarium in Germany has offspring that stretch from the Black Forest to the doors of Berlin. Austro-Hungarv has planted them among the woodlands of the Wienerwald, amidst the vineyards of the Tyrol, and along the Carpathian hills. Denmark is crowded with these sanitaria that follow the Vejlefjord as it flows through forests of pine and birch—and even in so remote a region as Reykjavik, in Iceland, the afflicted Dane has erected an asvlum for the consumptive. In Norway, the Reknaes Sanitarium was once a leprosy hospital, but leprosy is rare, while I am never absent, so they have turned out the lepers and invited in my subjects. Mansions are built to me in France, from the Loire Valley down to the Rhone. My houses stand in Belgium, on that plateau above the valley of the Meuse, near the Spa by the River Borgoumont, and not far from Waterloo—perhaps as a reminder that I exterminate more than armies. My edifices litter all England, from Northumberland to the beech-trees of Somersetshire. You will find them in Wales, where the heather climbs the mountainsides at Capclulo: the Scotch bow to me from Loch Leven and Aberdeen, down to Glen Afton and stately Edinburgh. I have temples in India in the midst of the Simla Hills, and my long verandas stretch through the tree-ferns and eucalyptus forests of Australia. At Helouan, in Egypt, they have built me an altar that overlooks the Nile and the pyramids—where I terrified man over fifty centuries ago. Dig deep and vou will find his carious bones. Among the Alpine crags of Switzerland, ami basking in the sun of the South Sea Isle; in the gardens of Ecuador, and among the pinewoods that guard the shores of Ontario’s lakes; in Sweden where the rivers run down to Norrland, and at the foot of Hymettus in Greece; from the Balkan States to Brazil, and from the Caucasus to the Canary Islands—everywhere where man is civilized he raises structures in my name. The sun never sets on the possessions of the Tubercle Bacillus. Tiro h u nil ml tirrnlii-srrrii But while these sanitariums were multiplying, man was approaching me from other angles. The century was still young when a group of Frenchmen learned many of my secrets; Bayle founded the modern pathology of tuberculosis; Louis demonstrated that I am frequently found at the apex of the lung; Villemin discovered that he could transfer me from man to rabbit; and Laennec invented the instrument by which I could be detected before the victim spat forth his crimson death warrant. It was from this little man that I received the hardest blow. I had killed his mother, and for years he brooded about me. All the nations listened when Laennec spoke about the Great White Plague. Finally I killed him too, but not before he had done something to halt mv ravages. Man would have gained more victories at this time, if it had not been for the mistakes of the Germans. The great Virchow did not believe in the unity of phthisis, and he led lesser men astray. Tuberculosis of the lungs was called catarrhal pneumonia. Buclde formulated absurd theories about me, and Niemeycr convulsed me by writing, “The greatest danger that threatens a consumptive is to become tuberculous.’ Really, I considered the Germans the stupidest folks I had ever infected, but here I got the surprise of my life. It was a German country doctor who first saw me. From the beginning of time I had been an invisible foe- I struck, vet remained unseen. That was indeed a wonderful day in the history of man, when Robert Koch ga ed through his microscope, and on a glass-slide saw the little rods of red that had so long scourged the human race. So Koch exposed me; but the day came when I was revenged on Koch. He informed the waiting world that he had a remedy which would destroy me— and he held aloft tuberculin. A thrill of joy spread through five haunts of men. Eager hands by the million were extended for the priceless gift. Whenever the little vial arrived, it aroused deep emotion; here was the sacred fluid that would wipe out the oldest and greatest of plagues. Mankind burned with the fever of expectation—then came the cold disillusion. In spite of tuberculin, the people died from tuberculosis. Man groped for the sun, and instead he found a mirage. It is true, in every age, man has had this bitter experience, but ever lie hopes anew. Did not the old Roman Pliny proclaim a host of specifics for consumption; wolf’s liver infused in wine, the smoke of dried eowdung drawn through a reed, the tips of the burnt bonis of bullocks. But several centuries later, when Paracelsus came on earth, I was as formidable a menace as ever, and he tried to annihilate me with the power diacorallorum. Modern man has employed a hundred remedies against me; hydrogen sulphide per rectum, ozone and static electricity, blotting-paper soaked in ammonium chloride inserted in the nostrils. “I can conquer tuberculosis with creosote,” said Reichenbach. “Ichthyol is the panacea,” said Mauritz C olin. “I recommend iodoform pills,” said Shingleton Smith. “I use calcium hypophosphite,” said Churchill. “M method is the intravenous injection of cinnamic acid,” said Landerer. “I in ject formalin right into the vein,” said Maguire. “I swear by pvoktanin,” Tiro h mill rid t u'vnty-c'ujht said Sheinmann. “I urge the insufflation of thiocol,” said Fasana. “Have you tried the milk of asses?” asked Yi(juerat. “Do not overlook the merits of phosphoric acid,” said Bornheim. “There is nothing equal to lactic acid.” said Krause. “What, about potassium cantharidate?” said Feibrcich. “Tincture of iodine is the remedy on which I relv,” said C’oghill. “I have found that the disease yields to caeodylate of guaiaeo],” said Barbary. So they argued about me; learned men, all of them—and all of them wrong. Of course, the announcement of Koch’s tuberculin was the signal for the output of a host of similar substances: Kleb’s preparation, von Berhing’s tulase, tuberculin of Denys, Beraneck’s tuberculin, Hirschfelder’s oxytuberculin, hmulmann’s tuberkulol, von Ruck’s extract, Thamni’s tubcral but I made about as many funerals as before. By drugs alone I can never be conquered. Am I then destined to massacre man forever? As long as the mass of mankind is submerged in the depths of existence, I will continue to reap a rich harvest. While millions of human beings are overworked, undernourished and ill-housed, I shall slay one out of seven. The lords of creation thrust the others into the back-alleys of life— and think they are rid of them. But I am the revenge that the slum takes on the West End. First I visit the rotting hovel, but later I enter the mansion with the marble pillars. The rich man’s child romps with his well-fed dog in the park, where half an hour ago a tuberculous employe passed and coughed and spat. I cling to the dog’s hair and so I enter the rich man’s home. His daughter drives to the ball in her limousine, but when she puts her slippered foot upon the sidewalk, I who came from the mouth of a consumptive washerwoman, attach myself to the hem of the lady’s silken robe. Thus I am promoted from the kitchen to the drawing room. Man could overcome me if there were more sunshine in his houses, and more sunshine in his heart. But as I pass from one to the other, and see the greed and crueltv of man the same today as in the days when he worshipped other gods—I think that for years to come I will bring the Great White Plague and whiten the earth with tombstones. Victor Roimxson, M.D. Tiro htiililrcil tircnt ■itinc The Doctor Deals With Death TIIK practice of medicine is the noblest and most revered undertaking of all activities developed in the human race. For centuries it was associated with the priesthood and has maintained its exalted place throughout the rise and fall of countless political and philosophical regimes. This is due not only to the ceaseless efforts of those who have joined the ranks for service to mankind, but because no matter what period, nationality, belief or political doctrine we may follow, the foe has been a common one and the desire unified toward the prevention of death and the alleviation of pain. Death stands as the supreme conqueror of our physical being and the ravages of this arch enemy are seen on every side. The ruthless destruction of normal, healthy human beings by warfare, massacre, pestilence, plague and the unbridled primitive physical force has been curbed by the advances in civilization so that the opportunity for survival has increased in recent years, although death again finds increasing access t our midst in the violent mechanical forces created by man during the past fifty years. The rapid development of swiftly moving objects and the relentless forces of man-made machinery have placed new tools within death's grasp to decimate the groups that struggle forward in their efforts to survive. As members of the medical profession, our first duty is to study death in its many forms; his insidious methods of attack both direct and indirect and the weapons which he uses to effect his final purpose. In order to understand the supremacy which he holds over physical beings, a careful study of the laws of life and of the structures which go to make up the complicated form known as the human being must be the basis for any intelligent attack against this relentless and vigilant foe. As crusaders, you go forth in the battle of life against death, and as wise physicians, you will apply the art of medicine to prevent, forestall and turn back the approach of this shadow which may come swiftly in the moments of apparent security, claiming a victim from within our midst the moment relaxation or a sense of security overtakes us. Though death takes many forms and in our profession has been associated with manv so-called diseases, certain invariable methods are utilized by him so that it is well to know his favorite methods of dispatching the victim of his choice. In the last analysis, disturbance in the fundamental principles surrounding the physiology of life permits an invariable victory when other means apparently fail. Thus, if we are to intelligently combat serious conditions which invite his presence, we must recognize certain basic laws, the maintenance of which at all times are imperative to the survival of the human being. The factors involved arc first, simple elements or combinations of elements as might be expected, common throughout the entire living world and common to most forms of life. Oxygen, carbon dioxide and water are tin basic substances which the highly organized living cell deals with constantly and must have in proper proportions to maintain its life cycle. Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, and their chemical interrelationships with hydrogen, chlorine, phosphorus, carbonates and higher complex organic and inorganic salts are likewise fundamental. The development of complex molecules of organic matter, protein and colloid with their interrelationships, is a matter of evolution and hereditary developmental transmission, being influenced by the proper relationship of these fundamental substances and after their establishment, dependent on these for function. As the complexity of the organism grows with the interrelated functions dependent on one another, the laws surrounding each simple cell group modify the individual as a whole, but in the course of evolution, nature has placed a margin of wide compensation for the loss of complicated structures to a remarkable degree without the impairment of the entire organism. Thus, death occurs when sufficient highly developed tissue of specific importance is destroyed and needs no other adjunct to effect the dissolution of the individual. In spite of other adequate compensations, death claims early the victim who cannot readjust the deficiency surrounding oxygen, carbon dioxide (secondary acid base requirements), water, sodium, chloride and so on up the scale of complex chemical and physiochemical requirements. Oxygen must be delivered from the atmospheric air to the functioning cells within the body in proper amounts and in constant supply to maintain the function and metabolism of these myriads of units. By denying oxygen to these functioning units in one 7Vo hundred thirty way or another is the favorite method employed by death to quickly claim his victim, whether by strangulation due to a foreign body in the larynx, whether in drowning with the tilling of lung tissue denying access of air and proper amounts of oxygen, hypostatic pneumonia or infectious pneumonia, destruction of the lung l� cd by abscess, tuberculosis or fibrosis; the access of oxygen to the circulating red blood cell is denied in proper proportion and the entire group of special tissue cells functioning for the individual soon become disturbed, their relationships upset and if the process be slow, secondary changes rapidly ensue announcing the eventual surrender of the individual’s physical existence. Conditions influencing the red blood cell as the carrier of oxygen, such as carbon monoxide poisoning, profound anemia, improper circulation and cardiac failure, disturbance in oxygen tension, due to either low or high diastolic pressures are frequent causes for impairment of oxygen to the tissues and a favorite means of claiming the victim sooner or later, the various processes of which have all received specific medical terms. The availability of oxygen to the cell in the region of the capillary interchange may be affected by mechanical closure of the vessel either arterio-sclerotic, inflammatory, or by tissue edema, change in the fluid components of the interspace, as well as change in the permeability and local chemical condition surrounding the tissue cell. Dysfunction rapidly ensues under these conditions, the terminal states of which we recognize in certain vital brain cells as respiratory failure. What has been said of oxygen is true ot carbon dioxide in the reverse direction. The importance of carbon dioxide in the balance of the acid base equilibrium influences not only the dissociation curve of oxygen, lmt changes the physiochemical relationships of the tissues of the body ami thus impairs their function. Water is one of the most fundamental requirements of the body. Phylogenetically and cmbryologically the human being has evolved from a fluid media and has established his ability to carry an adequate supply of fluid through activities far away from sources of supply. The end relationship of fluid and fluid storage is intimately connected with oxygen tension in terms of permeability of the capillaries; carlxm dioxide in terms of acid base equilibrium and sodium and potassium as fixed bases related to water storage in the various body compartments. As alkalosis is a corollary of edema, and acidosis associated with dehydration, one sees in these basic relationships surrounding simple elements and combinations of elements some of the most profound disturbances in medicine. The survival of the patient will not depend alone upon the use of formulas or drugs, but will depend on the physician's ability to detect such fundamental disturbances and utilize the necessary principles toward correction. Edema produces eventual death in terms of disturbed capillary circulation and secondary swelling of vital cells whose functions are lost in the maintenance of the necessary factors surrounding human life. If the physician will ask himself the following questions as he views those sufferers seriously afflicted he will probably prevent more serious complications; will find his treatment greatly assisted, and acquire the subtle realization of difficult problems successfully solved: (1) Is adequate oxygen reaching the important cells represented in the brain, the liver, kidneys, heart and other tissues ? (12) Is carbon dioxide retained or too rapidly dissipated from the patient's tissues and body? (3) What shift of the fluid balance lias occurred to forestall medical or surgical efforts, or to complicate further treatment? In the early recognition or correction of these factors lies not only the possibility of successful treatment, lmt the proper maintenance of tissue resistance to carry the individual through the impending struggle. Every means at our disposal should be utilized to wal’d the correction of these general or focal changes which constitute approximately seventy per cent, of the serious problems in medicine and probably are tin determining end factors in almost ninety per cent of cases. It' one were to ask me what I considered the most fundamental subjects in medical education, in spite of the importance of technique, physical signs and necessary collateral knowledge, I would advise the student to review and continue to review physiology and physiological chemistry. Next, to become a converted student of anatomy, the fascinating study of the normal relationship of the structures, and then take up again and again Tiro h multed thirly-one gross and microscopic pathology which indicate the manlier in which death invades the component parts of human tissues, cither gradually or abruptly. Upon these basic-sciences have been built the present methods employed in medicine and surgery for the treatment of disease with attempts to correct the many disturbances of these fundamental principles known to us under various names. In the last analysis, nature is the doctor. It she did not heal the wounds which we make, surgery would not exist. If she did not respond favorably to the medicine and treatment which we give, physicians would not he needed. We must carry clearly in mind that as surgeons or physicians, our part is to assist nature in re-establishing a balance of physical continuity and our feeble efforts compared with her own will continually remind us of our necessary humility. If I may impress upon the student the need for physiological normal balance in the proper relationship of oxygen to the functioning cell, carbon dioxide in its proper dissipation, fluids in their proper relations, and if he will strive to use all of the arts of medicine and surgery to direct his efforts toward the adequate but normal balancing of these fundamental factors, his efforts will he rewarded by turning hack tin grim spectre for at least a period of time until overwhelming (aids eventually decide the battle. Let no one surrender the tight until the last breath or heart l eat establishes an uncontested defeat. Let no one permit death to claim the intended victim without a desperate challenge and defense. Each temporary victory gained over this unconquerable foe brings as its reward the only true happiness obtainable in life. Although the physician's calling exacts from him greater cares, sacrifices and responsibilities than from any other profession, still, his rewards are greater in the end. His satisfaction of having lived a useful life becomes the envy of all. and in his unselfish efforts, lie has further cnoblcd the profession which granted him admission to its fold.

Rejoicing With Our Alma Mater THE Class of '31. the twenty-eighth class in the history of the .Medical School, is the first child to he born to our medical mother since moving into her new home. Naturally we rejoice. We celebrate ibis year as an event—an epoch-marking event— in the ups and downs, and the ups and ups of our Medical Family History. Our older sister classes were not always ‘‘delivered under such auspicious circumstances, but there were no stillbirths. and there have been no arrests of development or other signs of serious natal injury! However, we would not forget in the joy of today, the “privations and struggles and doubts and fears, attending the ‘labors' of former years. For instance, in looking up the birth records in our Alma Mater's family Bible,” the other day, we came across the rare and rhymed report of the first coming-out party” (birth) of the Class of 1916. Because of its diversified' references to the sub- morging and hr-“rating. and jeering and generally hindering attitude of the gossiping neighbors of that day; as well as because of what it discloses of the real maternal spirit that has finally triumphed in the glories of 1931. we are taking the privilege of re-publishing this hit of family history, with the assurance that our readers will not find it entirely without “rhyme or reason.

My textbook becomes a thing forgotten: my eyelids droop wearily as with a deep sigh I sink down into the cushions of mv armchair. Mv softly glowing lamp grows dimmer and like a reader of an intriguing romance I am carried bv my own thoughts through a series of situations and crises which arc very real indeed. It is chilly, my eyes hesitantly peep open, and I find myself huddled in a dirty and smoky railroad coach with dimmed lights: the world outside is growing lighter and lighter. Swiftly the train rumbles on: swiftly the scene is transferred to a murky cadaverous-smelling basement where one lone figure draped in white stands upright amid numerous prone figures swathed in white. This lone figure becomes more distinct. It resolves itself into the lanky, lantern-jawed figure of I)r. Koxbv. Day after day, with an affable smile and cheerful voice he brought order out of what before was chaos, as far as K WT‘ anatomy was concerned. For, always on an evening before P a lecture my serenity was disturbed by clunky skctetal crea- hires strumming weird and gruesome music on strands of radial, facial and trigeminal nerves. Kach night I rowed and rowed through strange channels of bright arterial and dark venous blood neither knowing from whence I came in or whither I was going. .Just as mv soul was filled with despair, this anatomist of anatomists, would come to mv aid and beacon my wav as the north star beaconed the way of pioneer navigators. Together, Dr. Koxbv and I charted unknown waters . . . Smokers here, smokers there, smokers everywhere marked the beginning of the chase. We, the poor, guileless neophytes of medicine, were the objects of the hunt. A word here, a suggestion there; tempting speeches and sales-talks that would have moved the sphinx all befuddled me so that I did not realize a thing until I was wearing a fraternity pin. And, for this I was glad, for then I encountered mv first wholesome dinner (in the form of a banquet) since I left my beloved home. You must realize how elated I must have been to escape that habitual castor oil dessert which follows a meal served in those fastidious up-to-date restaurants (Greek) in and about 18th and Spring Garden Streets . . . Tiro hundred lhirli -four Br-r-rr—a chilling blast of wind suddenly arising from nowhere almost sweeps me off my feet.

Mv voice is stifled, mv nerves tingle with • • • “ every sensation implied by the word paraesthesia. . . . No— no exam today. Every fibre in mv body vibrates with joy to the tune of “no exam today.” But, what a wretch am I, another nightmare with microbes and monsters is mine. Will it never cease— large ones, small ones decked in blue of methylene blue or brown of Gram’s stain dance like so many imps before my eyes. Katadidvmus and anadidymus monsters as well as thoracopagus and craniopagus creatures ogle me roguishly from around desk tops and from behind cabinets . . . Damnation! I will not study tonight. Exam or no exam, let’s shoot a game of pool or go to a “movie.” Tomorrow we shall relax and voice our sentiments in a political wrangle at the “frat house.” . . . Xmas holidays and Xmas cheer about a homelike fireplace comes like a blessing to ease the tormented soul of a Freshman medical student. W by must it end—why must that hell begin? Hell, it is, and even more so after that brief relaxation offered by an Easter vacation. Is there no respite—am I to suffer like this forever? What have I done to deserve such mental anxieties and torture? Poor me—must I suffer for the hurts of the injured and pains of the ill which I am to soothe when I am a doctor? A grand edifice is no longer a myth. A myth it was and as a myth did Dr. Saylor create it, nurture it and protect it so that it may grow into a reality. It is now a reality. And now does Dr. Saylor sit contentedly and watch with prideful, paternal eyes this grown child of his carry on the work which a great institution as ours only can do. Do vou know this gentleman who is the professor of chemistry? I am acquainted with him but cannot say that I know him. Does anyone really know him? . . . The vast sandy wastes of the Great. American Desert with its monotony mitigated by spangled areas of cactus and sagebrush and its dull surface guttered by deep, stony chasms possesses a rugged beauty which is enthralling; which is awe-inspiring.

Farewells are shouted, misgivings are whispered and hopes are mumbled as each and every one goes upon his way to engage in some occupation.

Soon, however, the atmosphere changes. With pale, drawn faces and straggling, shuffling gait, wearied young medical students half-heartedly greet each other “Hello.” Despondent, irresolute voices can be heard saying, ‘V hat did you study, Tom?”—“Damn it. I don't know a thing, Ed” “’Did you pass that exam?” The earth rumbles with the heavy tread of the yet distant army. But even at such a distance one can outline at its fore a diminutive figure striding vigorously forward. He approaches. (Alarm!) Attention! All is quiet. The Napoleonic figure of Dr. Babcock ascends the town hall platform (figuratively speaking). The “Chief of Surgeons” has come forth to enlist a nondescript group of individuals to his already well-trained, vast array. Nay. he does not request our enrollment but demands that we swear allegiance to his sceptor. We become recruits, we drill and we train. For two long seasons we work and we slave, ever under his criticizing eye, in preparation for the final dress parade. With ever so many foreboding fears and nerve racking anxieties lest he find some flaw with us and incur the wrath of his displeasure we file before him for a final inspection. And, after a final survey and analysis; those of us who succeed in passing his scrutinous eye arc sent forth to taste our first blood in battle. We are green and unweathered but with resources yet dormant and a spirit to conquer as we set forth to war with that great enemy of man—Disease. Now he begins: his fingers feel The tiny, burning bit of steel: They move, obedient to a star 1 nseen by us; his sure hands are So swift that the swift hands of Death Are held: there is one slender breath Between the two, so delicate. No calipers can measure it. Save those he holds— think there is Xo act so near to God than his. W. J. F. Sorrel and Son?—nope—that is not the firm. It is Winkehnan, Fav and Company which was so kind and svin pathetic as to come forth and lend its hand in relief of the present unemployment situation. 1'hev gave me work, work enough for ten men.

If so, I should like to hand in my resignation to Winkelman, Fay and Company in order that I may begin a business of my own. When is a professor a great professor is a query which no confronts me. Such a question I am afraid requires more than just a little cerebration to evolve an answer. Now let me see—hmm—Ah. I have it ! Any professor can maintain the dignity of his position inside or outside the classroom by simply being aloof. Hut a professor who can maintain the dignity of his position while heartily gripping your hand and patting your shoulder in cheery comradeship, in and out of the classroom is a great professor. Is there such an one? Look before you—Dr. Krsner is one. Then there is another. One cannot but help mention him in the same breath. Me is the professor of a sister specialty, namely. Rhino-laryngology. Mis ability he waves aside in a deprecating manner. With twinkling eyes and a beguiling smile he says. “You can do this better than I.” And, can we do it? .Just ask I)r. llidpath if we can do a Caldwell-Luc operation. 'Linie and time again, I sat patiently upon mv bench waiting for the time when Dr. Arnold should cease his discourse upon “'Time, and more time.” 'Lime has come and time has gone; time will come and time will go: yet time upon time he will propound upon the benefits of time. Do not fear, dear teacher, I know that time and time again I shall practice your teachings in such a manner as to please you. In fact, being an apt pupil 1 am afraid that I may even overdo tin principles of time and more time. Inasmuch, if a young lady should come to me complaining of the lack of acquisition of a third member to her family I am apt to absentmindcdlv dismiss her with the words “Time, young lady give him more time.” Tiro hutidrtd Ihh ty-eiyht Yes sir, yes sir, gentlemen, you'll find it in the best of families, i i your private pew, in your own classroom. How it got there we do not know, but nevertheless we are glad for it. Without “it” (the waggish Dr. Thomas) the gonococci could not “clap” nor the “spiroclmetes” squirm with glee,” and students cheerfully laughed at “parables” of I . Kach “forked stream” and “morning drip” but served to “whet” the merry wit of the professor of Lrologv. Spats—gray spats, tan spats—what matter the color of spats, they still are spats. And what fools are these that I see strutting about adorned in spats in attempt to emulate the great Dr. Klein. Saps! -spats and a bowler hat with the knack of wearing a hybrid between a sack coat and an ulster do not a great man make. Go ve forth, my cherubs, and gain ye an encyclopedic knowledge of medicine and the benefits of fifteen years of experience at Blocklcy before you bedeck yourself in any manner of clothes on your road to the “Hall of Fame.” But what of me—poor me, who is averse to spats and howler hats, what, am I to do to become great? Let me look about me—is there hope? There is hope. I shall emulate Dr. Hammond. Dr. Hammond with his neatly tailored clothes, immaculate hands, and carefully waxed mustache is a man w ho can cut his figure at any time, at any place. A “Beau Brummel and a perfect “Chesterfield” with a fund of medical and ethical knowledge, he is a man whose footprints I dare not hope to fill, but will do myself no harm in following. Dr. Mills is a grand old man with young ideas in more than one sense of the word. In the first place he is a pediatrician of note. Secondly, ever sympathetic with youthful tendencies and desires he exhorts his students not to to study during holiday vacations but to indulge in youthful pursuits- -for this, we shall always he thankful to him. Dr. Hibshman’s clinic was always gratifying to me inasmuch as it was so demonstrative and illustrative. Fnlike the bronchoscopie clinic where nothing could be heard or seen, the anus was at least demonstrable, though the tonsils were not always apparent when the professor made a rectal examination. While his stentorous voice would not give cause for any one to say that his clinic was?

Kach brilliant is but an ion and each shooting star but an expression of a change in electrical potential in the II ion concentration theory. Vainly I attempt to comprehend my environment. I grasp at a dazzling ion and just as I am about to seize it, it eludes me; I marvel at each flash of electrical potential change as I float upon a sea of mvstification. “Fever, sweats, chills and leucocytosis”- I am safely landed on the shore of reality, there to remain until the erudite Dr. Robertson embarks upon another voyage of mystery to have me sail with him through realms unknown in medicine to few but him: In Love he practices and in Patience teaches The Sacred art that battles with disease: Nor stains bv one disloyal act or thought. The holy symbol of Hippocrates. The first clinic that I encountered was that of Dr. Steel’s. Here, midst charts, casts, gas tanks, etc., with the aid of many satellites he displayed minor surgical cases, demonstrated operative technic, and even promenaded a fine array of young nurses, can you blame me for being so appreciative of his clinic? Rut, do not allow the above query to formulate a wrong impression of me for I enjoyed the clinics much more when the nurses were not about. It was then when the distracting element was removed that the full appreciation of the clinic was sensed. In fact, when Dr. Steel alone was present is when the clinic was most interesting to me. I am aroused with a start—a chapter in the great romance of life has been abruptly brought to an end. Like a panorama, four years have flitted before mv eyes, wherein, momentous crises had arisen: new knowledge had been learned, heroic battles with loneliness and dread had been staged; characters . n had been moulded and polished; and intriguing love affairs, sweetened moments of bitterness and regret.

And then, at length, our Junior year, All—my—then things looked blue; With 22 subjects to cover at once, And Babcock's Surgery, too.

C.—J. A. M. A., Two hundred forty-five Strictly Anatomical 'I’he Great Trochanter, Minister to the King, Gluteus Maximus, and the Queen, Angie Ology, of the Island of Langerhans. had bequeathed their two beautiful daughters, Sarah Helium and Bella Donna, to Leuko and Lympho, a pair of Cvtcs from Pyorrhea ( Peoria). The situation was very serious, since the girls had their own boy friends in the persons of Rolando and Sylvius, a pair of fissure-men, who were sons of Max Ida, the Groat Omentum. But it seemed in vein, for the old man had bought a blood vessel, the “Aorta.” now in the canal of Ilugier, on which the newlyweds were to make a few tryps- in Psoas Minor, then visit the Pyramids, and then take a jaunt around the alimentary tract in their sport roadster, the Capit-8, ax-6 cylinder, with an oculo-motor, with valves bv Sammy Lunar. Sylvius and Rolando were phrenic. They called on Mandy Bull, who suggested that his pal Terry Goideus, ride down town in his car, the IIam-8, and shout—“By the Great Wings of Sphenoid! Urethra! Urethra 'This would divert Iculums attention and he would leave the girls unguarded, whereupon Rolando and Sylvius could enter Okinasc, the palace, and e-lobe with the girls. But it was only an idea, for Terry rode over I’vers Patches and up a bronchial tree, and was lodged by Pop Liteal, the one man police department, with Si Attic, the warden of the jail, Inn Testinc, with the other Pacchionian bodies. What a nerve! At the same time Cal Caucus, another guard, was playing Billy Rubin’s— “Fifth Metatarsal in Pectoralis Minor”—on the organ of Corti, to his ladv love, Anna Phase, the personal maid to Bella Donna and Sarah Bellum. He lisped and could only say, “Tiss-ue, tiss-me.” It was in vein, for Anna Phase had sweet molars for Wun Lung, the nasal tenor from Vomer, who wore a Lambda pin. Rolando and Sylvius rode up on their bronchi, and after proceeding to divert-Iculum, they chased him around the Circle of Willis and into the columns of Bertini. and then put him to rest with his head on the pillar of fauces. A very humerus situation but the boys were very sympathetic. Seeing this, Anna Phase ran for Major Pectoralis, the Captain of the guard. As he and his men appeared in the doorway he wrapped his Dermic coat around him and shouted—Up anatomy heart ies. “Suture-self,” retorted our heroes in the same expiration. And so while Anna Phase went to tri-Angularis, the new vanishing creme on her mistresses facial, they fought. But Major Pectoralis soon found v ulna riblc spots in the fissure-men, and soon they moved into Inn Tcstine to keep Terry Goideus company. “Sinus up,” they cried as they had their crests turbinated by Satorius. Rolando wanted to call the girls up and called, “Inflammation, please.” “Psoas vour old man, was the answer.” A BltlKK P.vr.si-: IxDICATHS THE IXTEROOSTA I. Sl'.U’E Tiro humlml forhj-xi.r If seemed that their plan was F'ehling. While they amused themselves jumping through Henle’s Loop, sliding down the Eustachian tube and coloring the lines of Ket .ius, Leuko and Lvmpho, the two Cvtes, were making J lans tor their tryps in the (. apit N. But soon came an invitation to dine with the Great Trochanter. “What ho,” quoth Rolando, “Iodine with the boss” And I. “quoth Sylvius.” “I rate around here,” gas ped the messenger. The meal consisted of granular and molecular layer cake, ribs, liver, soup Ra Renal, olives, creme-aster, ducts of Stenson, with Whartons .Jelly for desert, all served on beautiful pterygoid and orbital plates. During the meal A1 Antois played on the enamel organ and Sally Vary sang “Sweet Aniline.” while the girls put on the “Follicles,” on the morula stage. Rolando had been reading Billy Verdin’s book, the “Wandering Kidney.” and got an idea. He and Sylvius would duel Leuko and Lvmpho. the winners to get Bella Donna and Sarah Bellum. The two C vtes agreed and so did the Great Trochanter. Ethmoids masses filled Cohnhiem’s Area. Pneumonia broke loose while Dollingcr’s band played on the organs of digestion. The contestents sat calmly in their little lymph vessels, Greta Multangular and Norma Basalis. which floated in the Canal of Schlemm, carefully examing their weapons, which were long, sharp, nasal spines and axis. Imagine the nerve of Bell when he rang and the battle was on. What a fight. Out of Cohnhiem’s Area into the Canal of Hugie, through the tubes of Bellini, on to the walls of the typanum, across the bridge of the nose, up the ascending loop of Henle and through the optic groove. Finally, as they were going over the mandibular arch, Rolando rose and with a curvature of his spine smashed the vessel of his opponents to a pulp, pulled the lacrimal sac over their heads and dragged them home to drop them on the floor of the Antrum of Highmore, symbolic of their victorv. while the band played, “I Ain’t Got No Body.” And so Rolando and Sylvius married Sarah Bellum and Bella Donna, and now there are other little fissures for the poor medical and dental students to worry about. Tiro hundred forlj .sorrn Thoughts Yesterday, as high school grads And in tin newfound world of college. We dreamed of a great future And the pursuit of a greater knowledge. Yesterday, we followed our dreams rn scattered schools, here and there; And when opportunity dawned Ye came together, from everywhere. Today, side by side we are working Through long, hard, wearying days. Still in the way of our dreams. In a complex scientific maze. Hut today we're more happy, by far: We’re fviends and pals, that’s simple, And more than that, today We’re students in dear old Temple. Hut when we’re alumni, and gone, And we're alone, busy, and worried, too; Will we forget these days, And these pals who've been so true? These men who are gone, In the midst of their busy scheme; Do they recall those laughing, boyish faces In the smoke of a pipetime dream? I wonder if it’s true— We soon lose sight o' the debt That win n we’re finished and gone. We’re sad a day, and then forget? Could we ever he thus? And could they ever fade away, The memories of these Our Temple ‘Student Days’? K. F. Takasi.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is better than medicine. When you smile or laugh, your brain for the moment is freed from the load that it ordinarily carries. 2. Learn to tell a helpful story. A well told story is as wholesome and as w leome as a sunbeam in a sickroom. .‘L Learn to keep your troubles to yourself. The world is too busy to linger over your ills and sorrows. L Learn to stop croaking. If you can not see any good in the world, keep the bad to yourself. 5. Learn to greet your friends with a smile. They carry too many frowns in their own hearts to be bothered with any of yours. Tiro hundred xixly-citjhl Physiology of the Liver In every nation, in ever land The liver is the largest gland: In capacity, five times more than what we need, To support the body is its creed, Of bile it makes a goodly share, A weath of hemoglobin does it spare. In life the liver holds great sway— Without it life just fades away. But if a third should at all remain, Regeneration would occur again.

That help digest the fats and oils, So tissues can rescue all the spoils, With which to grow, and thrive, and meet All the requirements of bodily heat. And in its own crude way old Hefar toils, When bacteria invade and toxins boil. While acids strong and poisons add Danger to our eating fad. And then, in just an operation. Without very much deliberation, Neutralizes every toxic thing— Gives the main switchboard a double ring And asks again—is there anything—more? Francois Costa, ’33.
