MEDICAL ETHICS
Adopted by The
MEDICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL
SOCIETY
ABBEv1LLE DISTRICT, S. C.
The Duty of the Physician to His
Patient.


1st. The physician should secure
the confidence of the patient, as far
as in him lies, by exercising toward
him, humane and tender course of
conduct.
2. The fears of the patient
should never be unnecessarily ex-
cited, by unfavorable prognostica-
tions, on the part of the physician
nor should the physician buoy the
the hopes of the patients or friends
by giving favorable opinions in the
cases Of extreme danger.
3. Frequent visits, in cases that
a"e dangerous, are necessary; never
theless, if the visits are too fire.
quently repeated, there is danger of
7 their producing instability of the
treatment.
The Duty of thePhysician to Society.
1. The physician, having it in his
power to exert great influence ov-
er the habits of the patient, should
as far as in him lies, inculcate the
habits of temperance in the use of
Intoxicating liquors. We are conf
dent that much of the intemperance
of our country is produced and Is
kept up, by physicians injudiciously
prescribing Intoxicating liquors in
chronic diseases; therefore, it's the
duty the physicians owe to society
to be very cautions in such pre-
scriptions.
2. Physicians should, in all cases.
promote the good resolutions OF
their patients, suffering under the
effects of intemperance; and should
in such cases, enjoin the doctrine OF
total abstinance from the use of in.
toxicating liquors; and to give due
weight to the injunction, it would
seem necessary to the physician to
act upon the same principle him.
nself. ,
3rd. The uses of nostrums OF
every description, should be discour.
aged by every member of the faculty
as degrading to the profession; and
any physician, who shall palm one
upon the public, as the result of his
own discovery, deserves the reproact
of every intelligent physician.

tuition and bylaws of the Society
The contents of the constitution and
bylaws will no doubt be of interest
to the doctors of Abbeville County
and we are willing to turn the book
over to the Abbeville County Medi.
cal Association, provided the Secre'
tary will give bond to file it in fire

when it is taken out for the meetings
of the association.

1t has been eighty years since the
formation of this medical associ
alton. The men who formed II
have all passed away, many of then
years a~o. We have no doubt thai
there are men living in the county
however, who knew all, or most o1
these physicians and it would be g
matter of a great deal of interest
if some one competent to do so
could give US some account of the
lives of these men, or of some, or OF
any of them. The Press and Banner
would be glad to have information
about them to be published in these
columns from time TO time.
Among other things, the society
adopted a code of medical ethics
which was published, we presume
for distribution. A copy of this
book is filed in the minute book ano

Connie Mack Is Running School
 For Youngsters

That Connie Mack is several years ahead of other major league mana gers is evident by his method of de- veloping young ballplayers. When Collins and Baker departed from the ranks of the champions. it was freely predicted that Mack would never be able to develop another championship team, but Connie has started building from the ground up and is conducting a baseball school at Shibe Park in the mornings
 Just before the team departed for Washington. Mack told 9 sport writer that he regretted to leave PhiladeI- pf1ia at this time, as he WAS making great progress with his morning class at Shibe Park. Each day he has had from 40 to 50 college, scholastic and independent balIplayers practfcing at Shibe Park in the morning and has followed the same plan that college baseball coaches are forced to use in selecting a team each season. He took his squad of 50 and has gradually cut it down until it now comprises 25 of the most promising youngsters in this section of the country.
 With his squad down to 25 men, l two teams are selected and each day they play regular nine-inning game with one of the veteran members of a the team as the umpire.
 Manager Mack and the three vet erans, Harry Davis. Ira Thomas and Larry Lajoie, stand about and offer suggestions and call the attention o1 the youngsters to each mistake made l and show them what they should dc I if the same play comes up again. Ere j quently, Davis will play on one side and La5oie on the other They tell the 1 pitcher how he should work on eacE batter, teach the other players how to switch for batsmen and with theil quick warnings prevent tho lads from < making plays to the wrong sbases. l. One of the pitchers has perhaps made a great mistake in pitching into a batter's groove when the latter i: i in the hole, or perhaps he did no ! heed waste ball sign or did not holC the runner close enough to first i When he comes in from the, field | Mack and Thomas take him in hand I explaining to him just where he erred and it is seldom that any of the pres
 ent squad make the same mistakes twice.
 As soon as he returns home, Man lager Mack will select his varsity home team of Is players and games vii
 be arranged for the mornings with al
 of the best independent teams in thi Isectfon of the country. Mack say
 that the youngsters will have bet ter chance to show their true wortH l tn regular games when opposed tt strangers.
 Two or three of the youngsters vii be sent to clubs in the Blue Ridge League until the Athletics return
