PASSING OF COUNTRY DOCTOR
Graduaes of Big Schools Unwilling to
Settle Down in Small Communities.

While ali authorities admit that
there are too many doctors in America
today and that the medical schools are
turning them out in far greater num-
bcrS than will be needed for genera
tiOns 10 come. the closing of a smaller
medical college. as planned by the
Carnegie Foundation. will have seri-
Gus effect upon the country at large.
And for this reason: The crossroads
doctor is already passing.
The heads OF the big medical col
leges received letters almost every
day from small country towns saying
that the village doctor is dead and
young physician. The graduates OF
the big medical schools who have
spent seven or eight years fitting them
selves for their life work are unwil-
| ling to settle down in small communi-
ties. They want to begin their prac-
| tice in the city where there is an OPP
| portunlty tc make good income. Be
sides, most of men have specialized
along certain lines. They do not want
to engage in Il general practice, es-
pecially in a small town, where even
with the hardest work it is impossible
to make more than 500 or $1,000 Il
year Accordingly the country towns
are supplied today by the smaller medi,
cal colleges. which students can never
enter direct from school. The stu,
dent in these colleges are usually with,
out much money and they return 10
their country districts to practice. Sc
when many Of these smaller medical
schools are wiped our of eXistence-as
they will be IN a comparatively short
timc-thc country will be confronted
with new problem-the problem OF
the village dOctor.-Ncw York World.

an advertisement OF highest value. and
one which will pull effectively and

Columbia is especially favored in
this opportunity which is hers to send
out advertising material of this sort.
No other city in Missouri is so literally
endowed Four years at university or
college can rarely fail TO give birth to
a love for this city and a loyalty to
her splendid educational institutions
which will never be obliterated.
Other cities will claim the students
in the vocations for which they were
fitted, but every individual will be a
herald for this city and for her eGu
