standard which the college asks the hos
pitfalls to put into effect.
That physicians and surgeons privileged
to practice in the hospitals be organized
as definite group or staff.
That membership upon the staff be re-
strieted to physicians and surgeons who
are (a) competent in their respective
fields, and OBJ worthy in character and
matters of professional ethics.
That the staff hold meetings at least
once each month to review and analyze
the successes and failures in the treat
ment of patients.
That accurate and complete case records
be written for all patients and filed in an
accessible manner in the hospital.
That clinical laboratory facilities be
available for study, diagnosis and treat
ment of patients.
Such standard, DR.. Bowman said
would not only assure proper care and
treatment of patients, but would put the
board of trustees of hospitals in posses
sion of essential information which many
such boards do not nov receive and could
not obtain

WETTEsT PLACE ON EARTH.
Cherra Punt, India Had 80 Inches c
Rain a Day, for Five Days.

The wettest place on earth is said to
be Cherra Punji, in Assam, India.
Here the rainfall averages ass inches,
a deluge of 800 inches falling during
the summer months. This is a summer
average of three inches day, but more
than 30 inches a day have been recorded
on five successive days, approximately
$50 inches falling in 100 hours.
If it rained everywhere as it does in
Cherra Punji, it is estimated that the
amount of fallen water would be nearly
500 feet deep in 10 years.
The annual rainfall all over the
world for the last 1000 years has APP
proximated 80 inches. This means that
since the beginning of the Christian
era there has fallen from the clouds an
amount of water not far from 100000
inches in depth, about ] IL miles.
Now, suppose that every place had
been as wet as Cherra Punji during this
time. The land surface of the world
had all this water remained, would now
be covered 10000 feet in depth

Foolish to Trust to Luck.

It's no use tackling big propositions
blindly. Dumb luck may bring you out
on the right side. 1t may also bring
you out on the short side. And if it
does you are bound for defeat. Blind
good fortune has brought men through
trials, but they are not stronger for it.
It's the man who sees the trials and
marshals his forces so as TO bring ey-
cry ounce of energy into control that
wins honors on the up-grades.-Ex-
