chances of Dr. Gamble ought to be
excellent. For six years he has been

young men to enter the best schools
for equipment as physicians. He
has urged older men to prepare
themselves for the higher work that
awaits the competent members of

centers Of medical education to in

curriculum, and has thus given an
earnest of what he will accomplish
for his beloved calling If placed in a
position Of national authority. DR..
Gamble gave the Association its first
