eterinarp jtltletuital bntietp EVERAL years after the founding of the Veterinary Department of the University of Pennsylvania, there entered within its doors K, one Leonard Pearson, who was to play an important role in the upbuilding of this department as we see and know it now. Q -A., ln the year 1889, while yet a student, our late lamented 5x Dean, Dr. Pearson, organized the Veterinary Medical Society, of which he had the honor of being lirst President. Wfith his great wisdom he foresaw the manifold benefits which might be derived by the students from such an organization. He saw that it would materially broaden the minds of its members and the scope of study that they had undertaken. and furthermore, that it would better lit the men to understand and discuss questions and problems constantly crossing their paths as professional men, also that it would greatly lessen class distinction and tend to bring all the students on a friendly and more equal footing. Drp Pearson ever held a deep interest throughout all his long connection with the University in this Association, and he found pleasure in watching its progress and growth. The bestowing on him of Honorary Presidency of this Society was a befitting token of esteem. lt is with keen. pride that we look over the records and mem- bership of previous years and see the names of such men as Pearson, Mohler, Adams, Harger, Klein and Marshall. The meetings are held on the first and third Fridays of each month throughout the school year. Students of all classes are eligible for membership and enjoy equal rights. Officers are elected semi- annually, and consist of a president, vice-president and treasurer, elected from the Senior Classg secretary and financial secretary, from the junior Classy and an executive committee, composed of one Senior, two Juniors and two Freshmen. lt had been the custom until several years ago for the Society to hold debates at the meetings, on various topics which were of interest to students studying veterinary medicine. During the year 1907-1908 a resolution was passed requiring each Senior Student to read before the Society an original treatise on some subject appertaining to the profession. After its delivery it was open to discussion by all the members and the author was to be prepared to answer questions bearing on the subject of his paper. These meetings have been the scenes of many stormy discussions for and against the theories expounded by the contributors and proved of infinite value to all con- cerned. - Early in the year 1908-1909, it was decided to offer a graduate certihcate to those who had attended a stated per cent. of meetings and were in good S'E211'Ifll'1 . as an incentive to more regular attendance and to promote a keener interest in the work. In previous years a smoker was held annually, to which Alumni and friends were invited. Recently, however, this function has been supplanted by a sumptuous banquet. During the present year we have been benented by some very interesting talks given by persons other than active members. Wfe feel deeply indebted to Drs. Ludholz, Klein, Adams, Meyer and others for their kindness in this respect. 126

This year marks the best period of our growth. Out of a student body of less than one hundred and sixty, we enjoy a membership of one hundred, with a pro- portionate inerease in interest and attendance. Wfe deeply regret the loss of one of our most liberal and interesting'contributors, Dr. S. I. I. Harger. As members of this Society, we feel a keen pride in that the organization is keeping pace with the rapid and steady growth of the Department. Wfe are also highly gratified in the realization that in no other department of the University can the students boast of an organization that is representative of the entire department as is our Medical Society. In closing, we wish to thank the Faculty for the interest manifested in our welfare, and express our appreciation for the use of Leonard Pearson Hall. C. M. H.
