Religion and Roses" will be the
theme of the Rev. E. Arnold Clegg,
pastor of the Capitol Avenue M. E.

he visited in illness. gave him two
fine rose bushes to show her appre-
citation of the minister's personal
interest and kindness.
The donor of the rose bushes and
her son have since passed away, but
the bushes have become beautiful
Towering plants. Each person who
attends the service will receive a
rose.

SEEK TO CURB
FATALITY RATE
OF APPENDICITIS
Famed Physicians Diagnose
Obscure and Difficult
Cases at Meeting.
BY DAVID DIETZ
Scripps Howard Science Editor

Art and science join hands in the
practice of medicine. This is being
made plain this week in Cleveland,
where the international medical
assembly of the Interstate Post
graduate Medical Association of
North America is being held.
No matter how much exact knOwl-
edge of diseases, their causes and
natures, is at hand, the fact remains
that the medical man must apply
that knowledge in eaech instance to
the case of a living human being.
Hence the art of diagnosis stands
supreme.
Gather In Cleveland
And so medical men from all
parts of the United States and
Canada are gathered in Cleveland
this week to watch a group Of the
worlds most famous physicians and
surgeons diagnose obscure and diff
fcult cases, to listen to their COM
ments upon the cases under obser-
walton and upon similar cases.
How difficult diagnosis can De
was made clear by DR.. John M. T.
Finney, famous surgeon of the
Johns Hopkins university medical
school. DR.. Finney listed the dis
eases which might be confused in
their early stages with an attack
of appendicitis.
The layman will probably stare
in surprise to read that measles,
mumps, pneumonia, diphtheria,
shingles and blood poisoning are
among the things that sometimes
manifest themselves first by pains
resembling an attack of appended
tbs.
Delay Is Dangerous
Since delay in operating in real
attack of appendicitis may mean
the difference between life and
death, it will be seen at once that
knowing when to operate is indeed
the trick of surgery.
But while diagnosis is an art, 1t
has prof1ted by the advance of sci
ence. The invention of the X-rays,
the electro cardiograph, the meth
DDS of bacterial identification, and
the like, have all contributed to the
advance of diagnosis.
DR.. George P. Muller, famous sur
geon of Philadelphia, pointed out
that appendicitis is on the increase.
Medical men do not yet know its
cause, he said. Since the average
age of the 10000 victims who die
annually from this disease is %, he
regards it as a more important
problem Xhan cancer.
Cancer Hits Old Persons
Cancer, he says, kills old people.
Appendicitis is killing young people.
DR.. Harlow Brooks, distinguished
physician of New York, said that the
death of a great man was not SO sad
as to see him outlive his physical
and mental powers.
Watching the convention of med
icaI men this week, one is impressed
by many things about the medical
profession First of all, the funda-
mental spirit Of the profession.
There are no secrets in the world
of medicine. Here are the most
eminent physicians and surgeons of
the nation, willing and eager to
teach their colleagues everything
they know.
Next, one is impressed by the Won
derful advances in medicine. Sur
geons are performing operations the
like of which were only dreamed of
few decades ago. tuberculosis,
for example, once dread scourge
before which the medical man was
powerless, is now yielding to the
knife of the surgeon.
