First sentence: In these days of great edical advance in Aerica, when the average family doctor is a thoroughly trained medical scientist with precision diagnostic instruments and effective therapeutic weapons at his disposal, and the average citizen can literally walk down to the corner and receive efficient edical care, it is fitting to trace back the history of medicine in America to its infancy-for medicine in America was not born with a silver spoon in its mouth.
