PRAISE OF WASHINGTON.
Visitor Speaks of Cordially Between
Camnda md United states.

LAS an evidence Of the good feeling and
fellowship existing among the higher
classes Of the people of the United States
and Canada. it is noteworthy that nearly
twenty Canadian professors from Toronto
and Montreal have been here for the last
three days attending the congress of Amer
lean physicians, which is made up of four
teen special societies. Although the num-
Der OF fellows of most of these societies is
limited to 100 each for the whole of Amer
lea, they have generously forgotten that
there Is any dividing line between the two
countries and have elected number of
Canadian physicians to the much-coveted
membership.
Among the most prominent of the Can
adam delegates are Sir William X. King
ston, professor of clinical surgery in Laval
University; Prof. Frank Shepherd of Nc
Gill University, one of the greatest living
anatomists, and DIR. Lapthorn, professor
of clinical gynecology in Bishop Univer-
sity. The latter was seen at the Shoreham
by Star reporter, with whom he chatted
pleasantly for few minutes, remarking
that he was always glad to say or do any
thing to promote the kindly feeling be-
tween the greater and the smaller Anglo
Saxon nations on this continent: The doc
tor was emphatic in his praises of the I'M
bounded hospitality which the visitors had
received at the hands of the medical pro-
fession of Washington. He was also much
impressed. he said. by the beauty of the
city and the clean condition of the streets
as well as by the excellence of the street
car service-the latter being about the best
he had ever seen.
Asked about the feeling of friendship be-
tween the Two countries. he said that there
was very cordial feeling.
Not only do thousands of people from
the United States come up to Canada to es-
cape the heat of summer" he said "trav-
cling and hotels being much cheaper than
in the states. and hundreds of Canadians
come south In the winter and spring, but,
