mention of some case must be made
that it be done without giving the
attending physicians name, since this
would SAVIOR of advertising and no
toriety- seeking.
DR.. Eleanor SculI appealed to the
president of the society for advice.
What are you going to do about it,
she said, IF the newspapers use your
name anyhow? Should you go up to
the editor and have it out with him %
In answer to her question DR.. E. M
Shanklin related several Of his ex-
periences with the reporters and the
newspapers, and said that he had al
ways come out on top and gained his
point.
TT is a question for each doctor him
self to solve. 1 have found that if YOU
talk to the reporters and editors like
you would to any other humans, that
it goes a long ways. 1 don't mean to
say that one is able to muzzle them
entirely, but they will surely use dis
cretion.'
DR.. w. F. Howat said that the So
ciety had been answered last year in
an editorial when it asked that names
of physicians be omitted, and that this
paper had stated that it would use its
own discretion in using names.
Gary will get the next meeting of
the Lake County Medical society. This
was decided yesterday afternoon. DR..
McBeth of Gary, who was present, ex-
tended the invitation and said the
meeting could be held at the Gary ho-
tel. The date has been set for May 7.
According to DR.. Howat's criticism
yesterday, the paper read by Dr. H. c.
Groman on 'Tumors of the Stomach"
sets new standard for papers to be
read by members of the society.
Although bristfng with technical
terms for the layman, the paper, ac-
cording to the doctors, was complete
and masterful and was thought so
good that a resolution was passed to |

Henry Robbins and Miss Jessie ToothfII

Married In Crown Point.

Friends of Miss Jessie Toothil ana
Henry Robbins OF Hobart, are express.
ing their surprise and rendering their
congratulations today as result of a
quiet little wedding that was celebrated
in Crown Point, unknown to these same
friends and relatives, until after it had
occurred.
The young people stole a march on
all their acquaintances by going to
the county seat, Securing their license
and having the knot tied all during one
morning and returning the afternoon of
the same day, man and wife.
The announcement of the marriage
which took place yesterday, stirred up
no little excitement in social circles of
Hobart, as both the contracting parties
are well and favorably known. Mr..
Robbins was regarded by the parents of
marriageable daughters in his home
town as a rather good catch" being a
prosperous merchant of the city. He
was popular with the young folks as
well asswiths mamma and papa as was
also his charming bride.
The fact that the latter was employed
by Mr.. Robbins as cashier in his store.

romance.

occasions of this kind call forth and
yet the short addresses that were made
on the beauties of the Royal League

the principal drawing card, proved to
be an exciting affair. Warner, who is
heavier and taller than Bechtol, was
declared the winner after throwing his
opponent twice in succession. Morris
