haps you can.
This community is most terribly in
need of a doctor. There are two at

are badly overworked. and one of
them Is sick much of the time. Very
often neither of them can possibly
come. There are several in ........
twelve miles away and they won't
come II they can possibly help 1t.
DR.. ........, the only one who
would go whenever II was at all pos
sible. has been sick a long time and
he died last week. Now we just
haven't any doctor at all. This is a
populous and prosperous community,

tor. But there isn't any.
I know he would have to work
hard, but isn't there man some
where who is unselfsh enough to be
willing to undergo some hardship for
the sake of humanity and the good
he can do?
There are two people now around
here who have fever and no regular
attention from a physician l wish
