Graham and Attorney Arthur F. Libby as their spe- clal guests and speakers, the Norwich Medical association held its annual banquet Monday evening at the Wau- regan house, preceding the social part of the evening with the annual busi- ness meeting. At the business meeting the sum of $25 was voted to the physicians® Bel- glan relief fund which is for the as- sistance of doctors in Belgium. Dr. Hugh B. Campbell brought up the proposition that provision for a visiting nurse ought to be made in Norwich and there was a free discus- sion of the subject, following which a committee was appointed to take this matter under consideration and re- port later. The committee was, Dr. P. J,_ Cassidy, Dr. Hugh B.i Campbell, Dr. L. F. La Piérre, Dr. T. F. Erd- man, and School Superintendent Ed- ward J. Graham. Election of Officers.

I have been taking it only 26 days and es Miss Lillie . _“I gained 7 pounds in 10 days,” states W. P. Trackery. ‘And so it goes. Some folks take little stock In testimonials because they say people are apt to take treatment for some disease and just Imagine they feel better. But Sargol 1s not a treatment for any disease. It simply puts firm, healthy, “stay there” fat and muscular tissue on men and women who are thin, rundown and underweight. There is no zuess work—no imagination about it.

Mayor Murphy referred to one of the doctors who a year ago had taken him on a tour about the city, showing him the defects in the streets. Thjs year the trip had been omitted so that the mayor concluded the streets must be in much better condition. His Honor spoke of the custom of publish- ing in the selectmerfs book the names of people who have received help and sald he was very much opposed to the practice and thought the names of the deserving poor ought not to be spread broadcast. Mayor T. C. Murphy was introduced the beauty of the city, its new reser- volr, the good credit of the city a3 in- dicated by the sale of bonds, and he went on to express his appreciation of the cooperation of the citizens in defeating the division of the city. Practical or Cultural? Echnol Superintendent Edward J. was the following speaker. He said he proposed to speak upon a question that has been under contro- Vversy, nation and world wide, for the last ten years. Shall we have practi- cal education or cultural education? But why, said Superintendent Gra- ham, choose one or the other as long as both are within the grasp of our chfldren" There has been a demand for scmething in our curriculum to retain our pupils longer in the grades. With this in view, we have been in- troducing more of the practical in edu- cation in the last ten years. It has been because of the demand ard in the communities where it has been working a great many more pupils are retained in the grades than be- fore. In an interesting way Mr. Graham went on to show how methods of teaching have changed in reading, arithmetic, geography, end other stud- les that an old fashioned pedagogue would hardly recognize in their new garb. The new way attempts to de- velop in the child independence of thought and expression. In teaching physiology one of the greatest changes has been made, for it is now princi- pally concerned with hygiene and sanitation. During the past year domestic sci- ence and manual training through woodwork have been introduced into the Norwich schools, and besides there has been a course of ten lessons in domestic science attended by about 65 people. The course had so many ap- plicants that a number hed to be turned away. It is the ambition for the children of Norwich to make of them men and women who may be independent think- ers and independent workers, an end that may eb attained by letting prac- tica] and cultural educetion grow ot- gether to the harvest. His talk was greatly appreciated and favorably commented upon by some of those who spoke later in the evening in an informal way. Our Friend, the Doctor. Our Friend, the Doctor, was a toast to which Mr. Libby made a humorous response that was greatly enjoyed. He spoke as follows: After dinner speeches have been di- vided into three classes. First, in- structive; second, amusing, and third, simply. punk. In such a gathering of erudite gentlemen it would be pre- suming too much on my part to try to be instructive. It is not in my power to be amusing, and so I will ask for your kind indulgence for only a few minutes, The art of healing seems to date as far back as recorded history. Heal- ing for hire was prophesied in the fifth chapter of the second book of Kings. You remember that Naaman, captain of the host of the king of Syria, went unto the king of Israel to be cured of leprosy. “And he departed ,and took with him ten talents of silver, and six thousand pleces of gold, and ten changes of raiment.” He was cured, but not charged any fee w,herein per- haps the old time healer may have differed somewhat from the present day practitioner. There were originally three great professions, and the old proverb says ‘Hide nothing from thy minister, phy. sician, and lawyer.” Men in all three branches of professional endeavor have been in a tremendously close confiden- tial relation to mankind and a great service to humanity. But like every. thing really worth while they have had their critics. One proverb ex- presses it: “Fond of doctors, little health; Fond of lawyers, little wealth.” Holmes in a lecture before the Har- vard Medical school said: “I firmly believe that if the whole materia med- ica could be sunk to the bottom of the sea, it would be all the better for mankind and all the worse for the fishes.” Quarles in the Hierogly] of the Life of Man says: of all men, are most happy, whatever good success soever they have, the world proclaimeth; and what faults they commit, the earth coveret Shakespeare in his Macbeth criticising the profession of simply prophesying Christian Science when he wrot: patient must minister to Throw physic to the dogs, I'll none of it.” So cases might be multiplied. One philosopher issued words wisdom and truth when he wrote: “Physicians are jqked at only when we are well.” Judge Ben Lindsay well say: “Our value to society is not how much we do for ourselves, but how much we do for others: It seems to me that really the whole life of a physician is to serve others and therefore he is a valuable asset to so- ciety. He belongs to the firm of Watch & Waite. And another is Attit, Early, Layte. Angd still another is Doo & Dairet. But the best is probably Grinn & ett, The pbysician is a peculiar sort of man, different from all others. His business from a monetary point of view is to cure diseases, yet gener- ously he srends most of his time and though in trying to prevent it. Each prevention is one less cure. The phy- sician today can truly sing with Browne in his Religio Medici: Y- & feel not within me those sordid and unchristian desires of my profession. I do mnot secretly implore and wish for plagues, repoice at famines. He is stli tradition bound to the extent of writing his prescriptions in Latin, but he writes his bill in good plnin English. For his own use he has satisfied himself that medicines are not meant to feed on. Fortunate man, for doctor's mistakes are buried six deet under ground while a lawyer's mistakes sometimes swing in the air. His diary shows that he has helped the dentist pull through, the paint- er from developing more bad signs. He keeps the actor on the last stage, the banker from failing, the cobbler mending, the miser barely living, and the musician toned up, It is said that a ch\mlun once on the way to a scaffold with a condemn- ed man said he feared they would be late. ‘“Never trouble about that, sir,” answeged the one, “they of and Depends On Health Cross, fretful babtes usually need a laxative to make them comfortable, and comfort begets happiness.
