If the Legislature fails to pass the
caucus law to which the Republican

Gets Next Meeting Of
the M edics.
QUEER RES0LUT T|0N
Not Intended ss SLAM" at
MsssIIlon--Interesting S
sion Of Ohio Medical 2
Association.

The Ohio Medical association ad-
journed Tuesday afternoon after an in
teresting session held in the Canton
city hail. Prior to adjournment O
resolution was introduced providing
that the next meeting be held in Mas
sillon, which was designated in the
resolution as the Eighth Ward OF
Canton" The date set is the second
Tuesday in August
The reason for the peculiar and
rather insulting wording Of the reso-
luton Is a section of bylaws of the
association which provides that meet
ings shall be held in Akron and Can
ton only. The Massillon physicians,
who are also members of the society,
yesterday made, bid for the next
session. 1t was simply case of
amending the bylaws or avoiding the
rule by designating Massillon as Can
tons Eighth ward. The latter alter
native was adopted as being the most
feasible and the resolution was adopt
ed.
There was an increased attendance
at the afternoon session, which opened
with a lecture on Malignant Diseases
of the Skin and Their Treatment" by
William T. Cortlett, who is professor
Of dermatology in the medical school
OF Western Reserve university. The
address was illustrated with stereop.
tcon Views. A number of views were
given of the different malignant dis.
eases of the skin, including leprosy
and cancer. The method used and ad.
vOcated by the doctor in Seatment
of these diseases was that of electrol.
ysis, or the X-rays. He had brought @
case from Cleveland, in which man
had been afflicted with a cancer which
had affected the ear and eaten the
parotid gland, and a remarkable cure
had been effected by the X-ray treat.

the physicians present to be unusually
fine. .

"I4inrs will never help an actor to play

looks to his voice as much as to his

for man TO 20 into character business
unless he cam disguise his voice and

Character work is no pluln duff for amy

fancy THAT Il lancashire dialect would
