THE Specialist

From the Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association.
The hurredly made specialist In medi-
eine-'the egregious expert'-to modify
slightly "a familiar and at present popu-
lar proverb, believes and acts on the prin-
ciple that nothing succeeds like excess
excess of refinement in specalism. The
narrow specialist. exotcally grown and
narrowly confined. cannot last and even
now is on the wane. Feeling that he is
marching in the footsteps of natural adj
vance when he decides to become a spe-
cialist, he believes that, like the cell, the
more highly specialized the more advanced
the organism. As he proceeds in expert
ence his views become more and more
narrow. He forgets that no group of cells
acts independently. 'The man who lives
and moves and has his being only among
experts of his own type is merely an ex-
ample of "frenzied ISOLATION The man
who goes abroad for three months and
thenceforth sets himself UP in the tenn
pies of the experts is said to be largely
a bearer of other mems responsibility--or
a scapegoat." But he is unnecessary.
While It is true that mo man can study
medicine in it's entirety" and surgeons,
physicians, eye men, gynecologists. and
so forth, we must have each is a part
of a whole and no one should attempt
to dominate the whole. The refinement
of specialism leads to narrowed efficiency
and thence TO the vanishing point of prac-
teal effectiveness. Too close concentra-
tlon will lead to elimination. Let the mar
row specialist know his limitations and
keep to his place. His opinions should be
treated gravely as such and not as alb
solute, proved facts. He makes an ex-
cellent servant but bad master.

BLOOD" SAID THE
GOVERNOR OF TEXAS

Gov. Oscar Branch Colquitt
thinks pretty we'll of his states
national guard. He says the
Texas militia could hop down in
to the Mex fracas and stop that
rough-house business in short
order. But Gen. Wood isn't so
keen about letting Colquitt's lads
take the glory and gore from the
regular fightin' men," and as
much as told him so.
When Gov. Colquitt ordered
four companies of state militia to
Brownsville to watch the Mexi-
cans, General Wood wired Gen.
Steever not to let the "volun-
teers" cross the Rio Grande with
out war department orders.
The Texas governor Is an in
teresting fellow, at that. Years
ago-51 last December-he was
born in Georgia, springing from
as fine a collection of ancestors
as one could wish, he says-in-
dian fighters, pioneers, revolu-
tionary stock, and all that. But
Oscars dad had more ancestry
than money, and he emigrated to
Texas, where 1t was easier to &C
puire coin.
Oscar went to school in winter
and helped dad farm in spring,
summer and fall. When he got
through school he attached him
self to a railroad as porter at the
station, salary so cents a day
and fine chance to see the trains
go by.
He had ambitions then his
highest was to be a brakeman on
a train. The railroad didn't see
