WELCOMED THE PHYSICIANS
Appropriate Exercises Held i'll Ma
sonic Hail Wednesday Even-
ing-highly Enjoyable.

Late trains over the Milwaukee and
prevented a great many Of the physi-
clans reaching Mitchell! for the open
ing session of the twenty-second an
nual meeting of the State Medical
Society, which was to have been held
in the afternoon. When the last train
arrived in the evening there was a
goodiy attendance and those who have
gone to these meetings, year after
year, say that there are more physi-
clans at This meeting than at any
held previously. The local members
of the profession have been studiousiy
at work for several weeks in adyertis-
ing and encouraging the members OF
the profession to come to Mitchell for
this gathering and their efforts have
been highly successful.
The first meeting of the society was
held in Masonic hall Wednesday even
ing, which was in the nature of a
welcoming affair, and after the exer-
cises were finished the physicians
were united in the opinion that
Mitchell had pleasantly impressed
them with the fact that they were
indeed welcome guests.
DIR. r. T. Dundass presided as
chairman OF the evening and an
nounced the features on the program,
which was opened with two selections
by the Mandolin Club. DIR. T. H.
Youngman followed with an impress
siVe prayer. There was plenty Of ex-
cellent music interspersed to make
the program all the more ENJOYABLE.
Songs were rendered by Miss Grace
G~oodykoontz, Miss Gertrude Becker
and Mrs. Mabel Hitchcock, and each
was heartily encored. Maude Silsby-
Nichols presided at the piano as ac-
companiSt,
The address Of welcome was deliV-
cred by the Hon. H. c. Preston in
the absence--of Mayor S5lshY, and in
bis brief words be made the physi-
clans feel that their presence was
heartily welcomed by Mitchell's Cit
liens. The response was made by DR..
G. r. Mallory, Of A aberdeen, who took
the place Of his fellow t~ownsrnan, DR..
H +. McNutt, who did ao6 arrive
on the Omaha train in time to do the
part assigned him. DR.. Mallory said
that physicians were always called
upon in cases Of emergency, but that
this was a place where he was found
wanting, being outside Of his profes
sion. He appreciated the open-heart-
edness OF the people OF the city, and
he assured them that the delegates
would enjoy everything that was set
before them.
DIR, J. o. Duguid, the president Of
the society, delivered his annual ad-
dress. and touched particularly upon
the matter Of reorganization Of the
society, which he considered the par
amount issue at this meeting. He set
forth some of the many benefits that
would accrue to the profession by fol-
lowing the plan OF the American
Medical Association which, briefly.
was to form the state into districts
and thereby secure a larger percent
age OF the physicians as members
than by maintaining a state society.
The rest Of the evening was passed
in listening to short talks by the
medical men, who were called from
the floor. Brief remarks were made
by Drs. Schott and VanBuren Knott,
Of Sioux City, DR.. Crane OF Redfeld,
and DR.. End2ers OF Yanktnn

Judge looked at Postmaster jenkins
