MEDICAL SOCIETY

The December issue OF the Hahae-

contains the following reference to
the Homeopathic Society of Della

State Society:
"It is too generallyeassumed that
medical society whose sphere Of
activities is limited either by num-
bers or by a geographically small
area is without influence or in
capable Of doing work worth while
or at least of doing work that should
bring the attention of the nation. We
have never been IN sympathy with
the above belief, as we regard il as
fallacy. Delaware is one of the
smallest states in the Union; its ho-
meopathic membership is somewhat
over forty. The total number of ply
sicians Of all schools within its bor-
ders is but 262. It so happens that
Delaware has a prosperous State So
ciety. which meets at regular intsr-
walls. at which so per cent. probably
of the profession attend, and which
meetings are remarkable for their
freedom of discussion and for good
professional fellowship. In Delaware
this is secured. not so much by rea-
son OF forceful leadership, as it is by
healthy state OF mind that brings
about unity. What is equally impor-
tant is the fact that Delaware has
within its borders a real ehomeo-
