After four weeks of strenuous cam

H. Franklin Bray returned to his
home in Chicago on last Friday after
noon and began preparation imme-
diately for rest of four weeks at his
summer cottage in Idlewild, Michi-

campaigns. The daily papers of Can
ada speak in the highest praises of the
life and service of DR.. Bray in that far
away land. The entire city of Halifax
was spiritually awakened as never be-
fore, and as a result the colored
churches of the city were nightly

Il
DIT. David B. E. Ingram, $3.50 South
Park avenue. female specialist, tells
of his great professional experience
since he left his home in Brazil, South
America, where he spent more than
eight years in medical training.
My training at home could never
compare with my general public ex-
perience. Professional life is a great
life and one Of the greatest problems
of life. Studying the human system
is studying the human mind, for the
symptoms of the disease always give
the sign by the eye, for it moves as
the watch or clock moves. My gen.
eral experience in diagnosing any
case, use the eye for the first symp-
tom as the eye will always be gov.
erned by the pulse and the pulse by
the heart and the heart by the general
utility organs. The heart IS governor
OF the mind and the mind is governed
by the body.
The Doctor further explains that
his fifteen years in America in his
general experience and in his school
life would never begin to give him
on-half the ideas. Words cannot ex-
press my great experience since 1903
when / first located at Philadelphia,
Pa, at 1918 cambridge street. when
I began to take up professional life in
America.
Ny opinion OF every professional
man of any capacity of professional
life is, that he should write upon his
experience, for experience IS science
as well as nature For this reason,
will continue writing each and every
week in The Broad AK for the next
following month my intentions. /
shall also write upon my great dis
covery IN 1910 of different chemistries

duct will come out in the next issues.

REFLECTIONS ON A NOTABLE
BANQUET.
By n A Majors

Lately the writer, through the
kindly spirit and genial hospitality OF
our most eminent surgeon, DR.. Dan
iel H. Williams, sat around festal
board that would do credit to any
class of American citizens. The oc-
casion was fellowship gathering to
do honor and pay a passing tribute
to the Belyue Hospital and DR.. Mel
son, who has been appointed to serve
two years on the great surgical staff
of one of Americas foremost insti-
tutions.
1t was a full dress formality, now
becoming more and more the vogue
in this great western city among the
very reserved elements Of our group.
There were flowers in abundance,
which all the more beautihed the
beautiful dining room of the Vim
cennes Hotel, doubtless the foremost
and finest Negro hotel in America.
The stage was beautifully set DIR.
Spencer Dickerson, a scholarly man
of whom every one who knows him is
proud, was the toast master of the oc-
casion, aided in no small degree by
DR.. Carl G. Roberts, who proved
himself the Demosthenes or Douglass
of the occasion
While all present munched the
tempting delicacies of everything de-
lectable, there were others in that
setting listed to speak with voluble
accord the joys of the great banquet
Of which DR.. Daniel H. Williams was
the host.
As we sat there conversing with |
Dr.. w. H Marshall and DR.. H. A
Turner, the writer's mind became
pictured with the beautiful localities
and his heart sang.
II was a most imposing scene, en-
trancing well worthy of greater and
ADLER scholars learned in the arts.
Fifty-hve years came trooping before
me At first the scene was grotesque
The broad ax. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1895-19??, 1920-08-14

and funny, then gathering in mo,
mentum as the years nearer and
nearer brought US up to this splendid
sight, burst with full force, rich with
a gorgeous mimicry of human accom-
plishment in the field of medicine, that
transformed the easy grace and con-
centrated within the hours of this
happy scene all that the years en-
compassed.
Years ago we looked down the IN
covered years of races pilgrimage
and the rainbow of hope emblszoned
the joyful expectancy, but upon this
night greater was the reality and
more effulgent was the full realization
of our early dreams.
There were doctors of renown of
every department of research and
scientific investigation, Psychologists
competent and able to determine the
mysteries of disease
Some were in the gray years of a
sober life, others in the budding and
bloom of May, flushed with the
bouancy of youth and mentally sharp
to wrest from years oncoming the
distinction wished by friends and pre-
dicted by teachers. We thought far
away to the North where the heart is
cold, we thought to the South where
the heart knows oppression. We sent
our heart far away on quest of love
and brotherhood; it came back to me
marked with the ugly lines of care.
What then did seek? Far off in the
desert Of barren hearts unused to
strife, yet crippled by tyranny, 1
sought to know the miseries and
cares of my race manacled 20 the su-
perstitions, vices and ignorance that
sppall the world
Love and Pity took root in my
heart, and duty was revealed as the
which, if availed, would
make me proud.
Finally / awoke from my reveries
by the toast masters introduction of
the host of the occasion-Dr. Daniel
Hale Williams, who reviewed the
American Negro inMedicine and Sur
gerry and made a speech that night
never to be forgotten.
