SWEDISH PHYSICIANS
 NOT COMPELLED TO TESTIFY IN COURT

STOCKHOLM, Feb. 14.-Physicians 1n Sweden, like those of America, cannot be compelled hereafter to give evidence in court against their will in medical cases with which they have been professionally can- nected under a decision just given by the Lower Court of Appeals of stockholm. This court has just re- vereed decision given by a magis- trate's court which would have con- pelled a physician to testify. In fact this has been the practice in Sweden.
 The case which evoked this rul- ing placeing the Swedish physician CD a par with the American doctor attracted wide attention in Scandi- navian and on the continent, while # was being fought in the two courts and was closely watched by lawyers as well as physicians,
 Although the case may yet be ap- pealed to the Supreme Court, no mo- xsce of such action has been given.

 Roswell H. Johnson, of the faculty of the University of Pittsburgh, in a recent address advised his audience:

 DON'T WAIT FOR THE IDEAL
 'In other words, don't wait all your life for a Prince Charming or an Ideal Woman. If they do not ap- pear, remember that John Smith or Mary Jones will make you a good husband or wife and that through your children you will have done your duty to the race and its future" "
 The college instructor emphasized this point:
 Superior women especially are likely to remain wilfully celibate, because they look for too muchfor more than they can have.
