that the patient cannot let him go. If
the family doctor loses two or three in
the same family, it doesn't matter; they
say, .'He is our family doctor" They
don't investigate or try to learn whether
there is anyone else outside of the family
doctor who might help them. The only
reason they give is they don't wish to
hurt his feelings. Prof Samuels has
saved the lives of a great many people
in this city who had lung trouble in its
