DOCTORS AND ADVERTISING

~
That old boo about doctors being unetca who advertise
is being injected into the campaign and the talked the more
harm certain the candidate whose friends talking If
known be better equipped and more expenced to treat
certain case any other injustice the patient
we'll the physician having publicly announced Suppose
that your child sustained an injured limb and there doc
tor Washington Parish who made speciality of surgical practice
Suppose you the fact and that you called in your
family physician and the limb ampuated
and would be cripple for life Suppose few days later learned
certain doctor operated and saved the limb
You would forgive yourself would you? Almost every city of
the United you will find churches advertising newspapers
today The churches in business souls and doctor is in
business lives Certainly the ministers Of the best churches in
the largest cities just ethical as the doctors
Some philosopher years ago said that you make article little
better than else and of the place
that people would seek you That good logic the Stone Age
but not this century doctors talk ethics days remind
saying that when prohibition first talked of that people said
unconstitutional the grounds that nced with personal
liberty"
Many young doctor dentist lawyer we'll other professional
men are barely making exace when the truth known they
better qualified and equipped than their ethical brothers
who making fortune Ethical practice aht-O the who
has established practice and afraid that the same line
will Of his business Ethical practice keeps young
ng struggling for years while the older his line gets the bulk
Of the business By the time the young reaches the middle of
life maybe he making fair living this young had started
advertise denfed way he would have made his fortune
Many have young doctors dentists and lawyers
city and hang his nge and wait days weeks months and
instances for paying practice and finally leave the city
When this professional leaving did you any his ethical
brothers him and tell him remain that they would pay his
and boost his business? Far be from Such They called
and perhaps expressed regrets that he did make That
young wasted maybe month year more Of his time and
what little money he had He played the ethical game and perhaps if
his capital and patience could have held
would have established paying practice.
If doctor better equipped we'll bis fellow doctors there
why he should acquant the public with the fact
than merchant who offers better goods lower prices better service
than his competitors
Bankers opticians tao and other lines of business used have
the ethical that the doctors and lawyers enjoy but
they found that they doing injustice the Young who
starting rather the young started advertising and
the odd timers had space for self preservation because the
young men were getting away with the business
The Enterprise does believe that doctors lawyers and other
eona should hurah advertising knock their conere
Therefore weD anyone you advocating the election
the ground that he ethical he pretty lose the vote
of thinking man.

A Card to Owners
of Rural Telephone Lines

We are anxious to see that ali lines owned BY
other parties and connected with are kept in sucn
condition as to furnish efficient service Where the
owners of rural lines are responsible for their upkee

recommend that every line connected with US Oe
overhauled at least year. and that at least one
experienced telephone man assist in this work. Inc
cost of this work when divided among all the patrons
of the line, makes the amount paid by each man
small, and this cost will be more than offset BY the
improved service.
