PLAN TO REACH MASSES.

Breaking away from ethical tradi-
dons, tearing the veil from the labora-
tory permitting the secrets, known only
20 the profession, to become public prop
erty, were the salient notes struck dur
ing the day. In short, the conventional
bonds between practitioner and patient
are no longer all sufficient. The profess
sion owes a duty to the public at large.
The curing of a disease in one person is
TOO circumscribed-the masses must be
reached The general health conditions
Of q community-of a country-must be
included in the scope of the physician.
The first wide plan of public informa-
ton was brought out at the meeting
Of the house of delegates. DR.. John \.
Witherspoon, OF Nashville. Tenn. pres
cent of the American Medical Associa-
ion, presided. II was announced that
the association was spending S0.ooJ an

1t is surprising that some market

alluring bait. Fish will fall for a
