DOCTORS MUST
. DISCARD b[AAD5

DIES MONIES, Ia, May 23.-Young
doctors who affect boards to make
themselves appear older and thus Sc
cure public confidence, will, along
with older doctors who wear boards
for ornament, have to be shorn, ac-
cording to an aultimatum issued by
the state board Of health.
DR.. ]. F. Kennedy, secretary Of
the state board, took this stand at
a session of the annual meeting of
Iowa sphysicians and surgeons. About
half the members wear boards. DR..
Kennedy recently wrote:
''In several countries doctors are
required to discard whiskers. They
are regarded, not as unprofessional,
but a menace to the families they
visit. If women's skirts carry dis
ease germs from the streets into
homes, it is not unreasonable to con-
clude that bewhiskered doctors will
do the same.
'Whiskers may be ornamental to
some people and to some doctors, but
the latter, for the sake of public
health, should be al shaver and
Shorn,"
