three years of hard study he gradual
ed returned to his home, passed his
medicals examination and began the
practice Of his profession. By close ap-
plication to business. painstaking and
courteous to all in his dealings. he has
won SUCCESS and is held In high esteem
by the public
DIR. Porter attributes much Of his

experience in public life to preside over

The public takes keen interest in
Or. Porter's work. The white physi-
clans lave no hesitancy in sitting In
consultation with him because they
know his worth and ability as physi-
elan. and therefore value very highly
his opinion In cases which require rare
skill and experience. DR.. Porte. is
former president Of the National Med
ical association. having served from
1900 TO the annual meeting in 1901
His annual address upon retiring from
the presidency Of the association was
replete with helpful suggestions. many
of which have since crystallixed into
tangible form for the good OF the pro.
fession.
He IS one OF the founders OF the
State Medical association of Ken
lucky. OF which he is still member.
He is thoroughly interested in all busi-
ness. social or benevolent movements
for the advancement OF the race in
this city and vicinity. and never re-
fuses TO give encouragement to the
struggling young men and women OF
the race. As busy rs Dr. Porter is
with matters us above indicated. he
devotes time to religious work in his
church in an official capacity.
Dr rorter believes In race co-opera-
ton along all lines. and his willingness
to help his people by serving at th-
head of many organized bodies for up
lift in this city Is an evidence Of his
sincerity.
