Woman Physicians Avocotions
Fill Days Since She Retired
DR.. Holmes CounseIs
Cureerist Sisters
To Look Ahead
BY JESSIE FAINT EVANS.

If women in the professions
planned their retirement from their
careers one-third as carefully as
inevitable toll of their mounting
birthdays would have fewer terrorS
for them" according to DR.. Mary
Holmes, one of Washington's pio-
neer women physicians.
DR.. Holmes eXquisitely coiffured,
graying hair frames an eager but
serious face, with eyes that have
evaluated most of lifes weaknesses
and frailties, but kept their trust
in human nature.
"A hobby or two vigorously pur-
sued also is a great help" she de-
clared, for good hobby enrlcheS
life by allowing relaxation for
creative activity in addition to OPEN
ing the door to new and unexpected
life situations outside the pale OF
routine tasks and obligations.
DR.. Holmes should know, for she
is one of the few women who has
actually followed the advice she ad-
vocates for others.
Ambition Implanted.
When she was child her imag-
ination was fired to be ply sician
by hearing tales of need for medical
care in India and China from re-
turning missionaries. Her first clinic
was with doll patients. BY the time
she was flfth-grade pupil she had
definitely chosen the study of medi-
cine as her life work. The way
wasn't easy then for woman in
this field. She first qualified as a
teacher in the public schools of this
city and taught several years in the
Carberry School after her gradua-
ton from what is now Wilson
Teachers College, before she could
even be enrolled in the medical
school of National University. sub
Sequently merged with that of the
George Washington University. Two
years followed in the Women's Med
ical College of Philadelphia and an
interneShip in the West Philadelphia
Hospital for Women.
Two years ago, at the height of
her career, after 36 years of sue
cessful practice in this city, during
which she had established an en-
viable reputation, she astonished her
associates in the Medical Society
and her large clientele of patients
by retiring from the medical pro-
fession.
During l8 years of this service for
humanity she had the distinct honor
of being the only woman in this
city chosen as a life extension med
ical examiner for one of the largest
old line life insurance companies in
the United States.
