LoyoIa Medical SchooI.-Each year
in May the American Medical Journal
publishes the results of the various ex-
.aminations of medical students before
the different state boards of the coun-
try. Of the hundred and seven medi-
cal colleges in the United States the
failures amounted to 1876 per cent.
The Loyola Medical School of Chicago,
conducted by the Jesuit Fathers, this
year had but five and a fraction per
cent of failures out of class of eighty.
Comparing this record with the other
large medical schools of the country
Loyola was superior to the University
of Illinois, Columbia, Harvard, Johns
Hopkins, Syracuse, Tufts and other
colleges of high standing. Loyola is
one OF the largest medical schools in
lAmerica, over four hundred students
being registered. Only half a dozen
, schools have a larger number. On
