however, that there could be no such
establishment at Lahainaluna without
endangering the work, and they will
stand for an agricultural college here,
il such can be secured.
There is now a committee of Oahu
College trustees considering the ques-
ton OF incorporating this branch into
the curriculum there, the fact that the
school has the room, the dairy and the
laboratory being strong points in favor
Of such a development. In case this
is decided upon, the making OF the
school a recognized agricultural col
lege, in the meaning of the federal stat
ute, would bring into existence free
agricultural course, where the students
would have the advantage of the near
ness of the experiment station and the
work done there would be OF use to
the school and vice versa.
Other suggestions are that the agri-
cultural college be made a develop
ment of the high school or OF the nor
NAL school, and all these suggestions
will be threshed out before any final
action is taken. The general senti-
ment is that the school or college
should be here, instead Of in one of
the outlying towns of the Islands.

JAPAN'S RULES
FOR PHYSICIANS

The rules for the admission to prac-
| tice of medicine in Japan are most rig
id and are held up to the mark by the
| government. The requirements are
set forth in the laws and the text of the
section is as follows:
No persons other than the gradu-
ates of the medical colleges of the
Imperial Universities and of the Med
ical Academies established by the State
of the Prefectural authorities, and
| those who having passed the examina-
ton for medical practitioners held by
the Department of Home Affairs, have
had their names entered in the Regis
ter of Medical Practitioners kept in
| that department and obtained licenses
for engaging in medical practice, shall
be qualified to be Medical Practitioners
in the Empire of Japan"
The candidates for examination are
required to be graduates of private
medical schools or possessing medical
knowledge of a similar grade The
course of instruction which is followed,
as we'll as the subjects on which candi-
dates are examined covers all the sub
jects which are embraced in the course
of the best regulated colleges of the
East and in Europe, and as well brings
in the study of foreign languages.
The examinations are held twice a
year in Toxic, Sendai and Osaka and
once year in Kumamoto and Maya
saki, and are very thorough. Thus
there are examinations in theory and
practice and special examinations in
dental surgery, all held by selected
specialists who make the trials very
severe. There are clinical examina-
lions and written papers on various
subjects. The preliminary examina-
lions can be had only after one and a
half years study and the same amount
must be registered before the final ex-
animation is given.
The courses and the examinations in
dictate that the most rigid scrutiny is
had over all applicants for the tests
and the educational requirements are
not more strict than those as to moral
qualifications, as in case of the Slight
est dishonest practice, the applicant is
suspended from taking the tests.
