VOCAL, AND EXUBEKAN7' PATRIOTISM

the country and its people will deny

for debate. for public recitation and
speaking; when you place the national
flag before their eyes as soon as they
can see, and in their hands as soon as
they can walk; when you assiduously
celebrate every anniversary OF every
great national neutrality-suspicious. day,
Washingtons birthday, Thanksgiving
DAY. and so on-you naturally create an
atmosphere in which patriotism is liable
to run to bombast.

ETHICS OF THE MEDICAL PROFESSION

New York Sun.

While he fully appreciates and still prac-
tees correct rules of conduct toward his
patients and colleagues. there are new
conditions which press for solution. The
specialist has come to stay, revolution
at which the old time doctor would have
stood aghast The announcement or
special mode of practice was regarded
as a crime. The anathema was directed
against new medical sects like the
homeopaths. The language was so
guarded, however. as to. be absolutely
fair. 1t was forbidden to adopt any prac-
tice not based upon anatomy. physiology
and chemistry. For many decades this
clause was unfairly applied to the homeo-
paths, and 1t Is within the memory OF
many now living that a schism arose on
the question whether physicians should
consult with homeopaths. until some
prominent doctors, among them Alfred
Loomis, Fordyce Barker and the happily
still living Abram jacob pointed out
that such course would be cruel to the
patient and unfair to the physician.
Today the differences have been ad-
justed under the reign of common sense.
There still fingers in the medical mind,
however, an antipathy to permitting the
specialist to announce his specially. DR..
Voorhees, characterizes this as ridiculous.
1t is fairly possible, he writes to read the
character of the man behind the window
by the kind of sign he uses. ranging from
one containing letters six inches high to
others which are little larger than a
visiting card. He also refers to a few
100000 specialists who attract patients by
making it difficult to find them, having
no signs at all In Germany. the country
OF common sense. every doctor announces
his special work and his office hours.
Why not do so here?

recent issue Of the Medical Review
Of Reviews contains some sensible re-
Elections upon the subject of doctors
signs. The public has long been puzzled
by the peculiar methods adopted by
physicians In what they are pleased to
term medical ethics. We agree with
DR.. Voorhees, that to the hard-headed,
practical, common sense mind of the
layman there is much reason for amuse-
ment In the so-called ethics of the medl.
cal profession.
This code was instituted about cen
tury ago when the family doctor drove
or walked to the homes Of his patients
without undue haste, avoiding every in
fringement upon his aplomb and more
intent upon the maintenance of his dig
the bedside. He was the arbter of
health and life, and his demeanor be-
spoke his estimate of the Importance of
his mission. 1t was quite natural that
the doctors Of that day and generation
should adopt rules and regulations for
conduct In cases involving possible
rivalry and to inculcate precepts which
would secure dignity and esprit de corps.
The modern physician recognizes with
grateful appreciation the efforts of his
predecessors in this direction, but he has
neither time nor inclination for the ver-
bose precepts Of the code, finding that
most of them simply express the ordi-
nary rules Of conduct between gentle
Inen, breach of which would condemn
the violator to ostracism among his
peers, be he physician or layman. But
times have changed and We must
change with them The stress of mod
ern life. new modes of travel and multi
plication of patients have impressed
upon the modern doctor different views.

to me or any one authorized to speak for
the Taft people on behalf of any third
candidate. Various propositions were in
formally made to me under circum-
stances that did not convince me that
those making them were acting in good
faith or had the power to carry out their
promises, and generally with assurances
that If l would accept them would my
self be nominated
That ought to lay to rest the fiction
that the Taft managers at Chicago ever
contemplated taking up a compromise
candidate. Being certain from the minute
the convention was organized that they
had enough votes to renominate the presi-
dent and having based their whole can
vass on the contention that Mr.. Taft
thoroughly deserved a denomination and
would be the strongest possible candidate
wnom the party could put into the field.
they would have stultified themselves by
abandoning the only leader who had a
sure majority and taking up a dark
morse who might easily have been pock-
eted in the confusion following sudden
and necessarily demoralizing change of
plans.
1t Is easy to believe that no offer was
made to Colonel Roosevelt by anyone
authorized to speak for the Taft people
on behalf Of any third candidate" 1t Is
fortunate that the compromise legend has
been exploded completely and promptly.
Otherwise 1t would have been figuring
some years hence as one of the indis-
putable facts in the inside history of the

Who would have believed,
month ago. the White Sox would
lead the American league today?
With a team which on paper
had little class, Manager Jim Cal
lahan pronounce 1t Callahn) has
the unexpected, and
by returning home after swinging
around the western loop of the
league, higher than when they
left home, the Sox have done
something unheard of since the
day of Fielder Jones. Il
Callahan has a team OF Young
sters, with vet or two to steady
them and their diet is red pepper.
They are rampag ing, with. the. bit
in their teeth. Hard hitters, good
fielders, playing the Callahan
brand of ball, with little better
than ordinary pitchers-that's the
White Sox.
Callahan likes hitters. The
Sox lead the league sluggers by
8 points and under Callahan hits
mean runs. The Sex don't play
any particular game, but mix
their attack. They sacrifice, play
the hit-and-run, or sit back and
watch Bodie knock the concrete
from the outefiield wall.
Cal was a star on Anson's
White Stockings, with Bill Lange.
Ryan, Dahlen and the rest of thai
crew, and he is a star today. He
is on his toes all of the time and
has given his team the fighting
spirit that has characterized all
winners.
He is a strategist. Maybe he
learned this when, as youth, he
tried to get rich quick as a
plumber, when not playing ball,
or during his short career in vau-
deville. He yanks a pitcher from
the mound apparently without
reason But he always has rea-
son and 1t Is uncanny. the way he
can tell when pitcher Is wob-
bling. He frequently sees this
before the pitcher realizes 1t.

saver extant.

mite. They're as arrogant as q

plumbing In his ancestral halls.
