THE TOAsTS.

then announced the programme for the or
atorical exercises. The first toast was "The
Medical Profession" responded to by DIR.
E. ii. Gregory, president of the Medical as-
ISOLATION. He said:
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN-I have sung
the praises of the medical profession for
forty years; have been engaged in the &C
tual work of practice for almost a lifetime.
am indebted to the profession for the
high honor of being the president of this
association and for being in the company.
All that am owe to it; for forty years
have / loved it, and perhaps have taken
more from il than have
given. Its resources are as
boundless as eternity. Mr.. President,
/ began my career only a few miles from
this city, and feel that you are friends
that am among fVends have known all
my life. The first time / was called in
consultation was with the father of two of
your members referring to Drs. Z. G. and
w. Fl. Evans. thank you for the honor,
Mr.. President.
"The Medical association What 1t has
Done in the Past and What it Should Do
in the Future,.' responded to by DIR. John
SON, of Kansas City. "The Medical Asso-
ciatiOn," said the speaker, "was organized
about thirty years ago, when to hold our
annual meetings was task indeed. There
was no railroads in those days, and it
would take a month to bring together as
many physicians as are here tonight"
Many other good things were said by this
~ inf 10 he,
ton and their guests.
One of the wittiest and most interesting
toasts was THE Ladies'" responded to by
DIR. E V. Scheack, of st. Louis. He spoke
in high terms of their many good qualities,
their beauty, their wit, and made a very
amusing play on the names of Drs. King,
Trader, Bachelor and Scott, all of whom
are members of the association. In closing
he said, There is nothing that would tear
us awsy-no other motive than 8 locomo-
motive"
Judge J. P. Strother, of the circuit court,
was given the subject of Claw, the con-
servator of our liberty" and those acquaint-
ed with the eminent gentleman know how
well the subject was handled.
"The Press" the last toast on the list,
brought to his feet Mr.. L. c. Glessnsr, of
the Democrat, who treated the subject both
humorously and seriously. He spoke of
the close affinity of medicine and itera-
ture of the fund of information con-
tanned oftsntimes within the pate of the
physician, and caused much hearty laugh
ter.
DR.. King was then loudly called, and
spoke for several minutes in his usually
happy manner, after which the large crowd
for their homes, agreed in the
opinion that the banquet was complete
success in every particular.
