Sr. UtUtam N. Parktam DEAN AND PROFESSOR OF CLINICAL SURGERY

W E HUMBLY DEDICATE OUR BOOK

ItoQntpJjg of Sr. farktnson OCTOR PARKINSON was born in Philadelphia, September 17,

1886. He was educated in the Philadelphia Schools, and after further preparation was entered as a student in Temple Uni

versity Medical School, from which he graduated in 1911.

He served as interne at the Montgomery General Hospital at Norristown, Pennsylvania, and after being licensed to practice, located in West Philadelphia, where he built up a large practice. During the five years following his beginning practice, he was attached to the Joseph Price Memorial Hospital as an assistant surgeon. At the same time he served as quiz-master in surgical anatomy at his Alma Mater.

The call for service in the World War saw him assigned to the 28th Division during the entire enlistment of the "Iron Division," being mustered out at the close of the war as a Major in the Medical Corps.

He again entered practice and served as a member of the visiting staff of the Montgomery General Hospital, surgical division, for a number of years.

In 1921 he became Associate Dean at Temple Medical School. During his busy years of practice he was an earnest student of the progress of medical education, and as Associate Dean he visited many of the large medical schools of the Eastern and Middle sections of the country. He likewise attended clinics in important centers in order to further his knowledge of surgery.

In 1924 he resigned as Associate Dean and went abroad to continue his studies, spending a year on the Continent and in the British clinics.

Upon his return he moved to St. Augustine, Florida, serving for a brief time as Assistant Surgeon at the Eas t Coast Hospital , shortly becoming Chief Surgeon to the same hospital.

In 1929 he returned to his Alma Mater as Medical Director of the official Hospitals of Temple University, and in a few months was made Dean of the Medical School. Since then our school has made phenomenal strides in achieving a national reputation, and it was only fitting tha t this, Temple Medical School's most nationally representative class, should dedicate its book to him.

To the Members of the Class of 1932:

\*f\ ^ YOU graduate, you are entering a world \ ^ " l which is changing more rapidly than ever *^^ before. You stand on the threshold of momentous reforms, social and economical. One of the most insistent demands on medicine today, is for more reasonable costs to the great group of people between wealth and poverty. The most popular answer to this seems to be in the direction of State Medicine, or some similar plan. If the profession fails to originate a solution of the problem, some such plan will be forced upon us.

Therefore, you inherit with your coveted diploma, a responsibility to make medical costs more reasonable—to emphasize the humanity of medicine as was so gloriously done by Sir William Osier—and to relegate to its proper subordinate place, the selfish atti tude of personal aggrandizement.

If this fails to avert State Medicine, then let us anticipate the change, retaining our leadership, and keeping for the profession all possible dignity and individuality, so that we may not lose the exalted position built up for us by our famous predecessors in the "healing a r t . "

Dean

AppmtattimB

To the Fourth Year Class in the School of

Medicine of Temple University:

3T IS with great pleasure that I am thus permitted to add a few words of appreciation of what Dean Parkinson has done and is doing for

your School of Medicine. I have watched with great interest the recent developments under Dr. Hammond, your former Dean and under your present Dean. Anyone having the interests of medical education at heart, and having any pride in Philadelphia as a medical center, cannot help but be enthusiastic about the great advances made in the past few years by our local medical schools. All have materially improved their teaching plants, have strengthened their faculties, and have improved their teaching. Temple, the youngest member of the group of five Philadelphia Schools, has, I think, made the greatest strides forward in the last five years of any of our schools, and I know that Dean Parkinson has had a large pa r t in bringing about these advances at Temple.

I congratulate your University in having at the head of its Medical School so capable a Dean. I am delighted with what he and others at Temple have accomplished for medical education in Philadelphia. The friendly relations existing between the schools in this city is a matter of comment by outsiders. It is my hope that we may still further improve these cordial relations.

Dean, The University of Pennsylvania

School of Medicine.

ijaU in Bean Parkinson! jfi T IS a foregone conclusion tha t I would cor-j l dially support any and all endeavors to pro-

^^ mote among medical students and the medical profession "the highest regard for the Deans of medical schools. We Deans must stand together. I have been, "deaning" for more than twenty-five years, therefore, my willingness to encourage any plan which will enhance an appreciation of the services of a Dean, or glorify his achievements is readily understood.

Of course, I approve of the dedication of the Class Book to the Dean of your medical school. I t is gratifying to know that the efforts of your Dean to promote the welfare of the student body are appreciated by them.

I join with you in expressing all good wishes for his continued success, one measure of which success is to have gained the cordial good-will of the Graduating Class of 1932.

Dean, Jefferson Medical College

/Tfif T HAS been my good fortune to travel many j l miles to educational meetings with Dr. William

^ ^ Parkinson, and to know him intimately I can truthfully say, that as I know him better,

I appreciate more fully his sterling worth. The Department of Medicine of Temple University

is very fortunate in having Dr. William Parkinson as Dean.

Dean, Hahnemann Medical College

i r . KttaafU % (EotutttU R. R U S S E L L H. CONWELL, founder of Temple University,

was born near Worthington, Mass., on February 15, 1843. His father was a stonemason. Russell was educated at Wil-

braham Academy, Mass., from which he graduated in 1859. In I860 he went to Yale, determined to work his way through. His college work was interrupted by the Civil War , which he entered in 1862, as Captain of the company known as the "Mountain Boys." He was promoted later to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.

When the war ended Col. Conwell entered the Law School at Albany University, N. Y. He graduated and was admitted to the bar. In 1865, he moved to Minneapolis, establishing there the Y. M. C. A. of Minneapolis. He was made Immigration Agent to Germany for the State of Minnesota, but after several years in Europe, he returned to Boston where he opened a law office. This was in 1870.

Due to the sudden death of Dr. Conwell's first wife he turned his attention to religion, closed his law office, and became the preacher in the Baptist Church in Lexington, Mass. He attended Newton Theological Seminary and was ordained in 1879, then moved to Philadelphia three years later where he took over Grace Baptist Church.

With the aid of the congregation, construction was started on the new Baptist Temple in 1889. The building was completed in 1891. The first classes of Temple University were held in the basement of the Temple. They were evening classes consisting mainly of working people. There was no fee charged. The classes enlarged to such an extent that in 1888 the institution was chartered. At that time there were 590 students. Temple University, through Dr. Conwell's wise guidance, started what was later to become the Samaritan Hospital, and also the Greatheart and Garrets on Hospitals.

Dr. Russell H. Conwell, "Philadelphia's foremost citizen," was author, lecturer, philanthropist. He spoke during his career to approximately ten million people, and at such places as the T a j Mahal, India, Stockholm, Hong Kong, and Stratford-on-Avon. His most famous lecture, "Acres of Diamonds," was delivered more than six thousand times. A Chautauqua lecturer from the inception of the movement, Dr. Conwell lectured every summer from June until late in August.

He wrote many books, including notable biographies. Always a great lover of music and literature, he knew many famous characters in all lines of business and art . Dr. Conwell received many honors during his lifetime, including the Bok Award in 1923. He died December 6, 1925.

He left a vacancy at his beloved school, which no one can ever fill.

Dear comrade, but a moment since You were warm and near, No fear mirrored in your steadfast eyes, Nor pale hope, mumbling kindly lies! The words of Priest and Sire ring hollow-TV e can only follow Our comrade to the grave. "God's will;' and "God is good!" But no Godly brood who loved yon, Tom! Only men who never can forgive Death Or forget you!

Futile words, to clothe our pain— In vain to call aloud, to cry: "Too young" . . . "too young to die!" We stoop to touch a cold still hand . . . Oh God, we cannot understand! Bitter with regret, We can't forgive, we can't forget!

/ y j K E M P L E MEDICAL COLLEGE had its inception in the ideals of a If\. great humanitarian, Doctor Russell H. Conwell, whose aim was: to ^ • • ^ provide students with the opportunity of obtaining a medical education,

who must of necessity be self-supporting. For this reason, evening classes were held, distributed over a period of five years ; the equivalent of a four

year day course of other medical schools, and in addition seven hundred hours of actual day work were required each year.

From its humble birth in 1901, it has progressed, until at the present time, it ranks among the leading medical institutions of the country.

Doctor Fri tz was appointed as its first dean, and served in that capacity until 1903. Classes were held in the main college building at Broad and Berks Streets and at the Samaritan Hospital, "which had been rescued from oblivion" and

moved to its present location at Broad and Ontario Streets. The first class comprised thirty-five members, who in their sincere efforts gave the first impetus toward the ultimate success of the new venture.

In 1903, Doctor I. Newton Snively, succeeded Dr. Fri tz as dean. In 1906, fourteen students were graduated, the first to complete the entire course a t Temple. Then because of unfavorable legislation night classes had to be discontinued and day classes were organized.

The title of "Temple University," was granted by the Philadelphia courts to Temple College and the medical school became a department in the University. Doctor Frank C. Hammond succeeded Dr. Snively as dean, in 1909. By his untiring and unstinted efforts for twenty years, he contributed much towards the advancement of the school. Soon afterwards, the Philadelphia Dental College and the Garretson Hospital, a t Eighteenth and Buttonwood Streets were added to the embryo medical school. The Garretson Hospital, with a capacity of

seventy-five beds and the Samaritan, with one hundred and twenty-five, afforded ample facilities for the school, whose enrollment at this time had grown to two hundred and thirty-eight students and a faculty of eighty-five.

In the spring of 1923, the maternity department was moved to the Great-heart Hospital, at Eighteenth and Spring Garden Streets. The following year, 1924, saw the demise of the Garretson Hospital, which had outlived outlived its usefulness as such, and the upper three floors of the building were utilized as laboratories for the departments of Physiology, Embryology and Histology and Pathology and Bacteriology. Modern equipment was installed and in addition, a new medical dissecting room with the most modern facilities was instituted in the basement of Medical Hall.

During the course of the next three years, the Garretson Hospital was incorporated with the Greatheart , as the Garretson-Great-heart Maternity Hospital and the entire building on Hamilton Street was utilized for teaching purposes.

The Samaritan Hospital, in 1925, was greatly enlarged by the addition of a new building and the older sections were renovated, so that the bed capacity, with the addition of the Roosevelt Hospital floor totaled three hundred and thirty. In 1929, its name was changed to Temple University Hospital, another step toward the ultimate goal of a "Greater Temple University." Doctor William N. Parkinson became dean, succeeding; Doctor Hammond.

T H E OLD SCHOOL

OUR N E W SCHOOL

In the fall of 1929, a new era was begun in the annals of Temple University Medical School. Work was begun on the erection of the new building that was to house the medical school, at Broad and Ontario Streets. I t was completed and opened its doors in the fall of 1930, with an enrollment of four hundred and fifty students, the largest in its history. The faculty was increased and greatly enriched by the addition of nationally and internationally known men. The hew edifice, a monument to medical education was formally dedicated by Dr. W. H. Mayo, on October 15, 1930.

^ T ' H O S E of us who remember the room available for study in the buildings ^ * / of the old Medical School are indeed proud of our new library. Entering on tiptoe (no noise is ever heard in this sanctum sanctorum) one cannot help but notice the beautiful parquet floor underfoot. To the left are the rows of shelves bearing 'steen thousand volumes of the latest and best in medical books. On the walls hang engravings—donated by Professor Robinson—of men whose names spell Medical History, and under them, in the booths, sit (sometimes) students whose names—mean nothing. At the east end of the room is the magazine section. Here Dr. Hammond, from the glory of an oil painting, looks down with his unforgettable smile, on men who are seeking relaxation from the "daily grind" in the Tonics and Sedatives column. The library is familiar to the Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors, who cut classes, and to the Seniors who had no cases assigned while on surgery service and used the time to write their own theses in Obstetrics.

jERE is the impressive entrance to the scene of our mental struggles. Through this lobby we have passed many a time, often in a hurry, and

occasionally on time for class. Under the decorative electric fixtures (they were lit one night during Xmas vacation when the watchman couldn't find his cat) we have often gathered in groups to smoke, hold a post-mortem on an examination, or watch a class of student nurses coming in the double row of doors. We won't forget the thrill of first using the elevator after a few weeks of climbing six flights of stairs, and then deciding not to let our Professor of Immunology get upstairs before we did. Until the bulletin was moved, we congregated about it to read notices that foretold a night of study instead of the movies. The lobby will long be remembered.

E E those rows and rows of hard seats? There (my children) is where your father learned medicine. There is where he was called on in

Surgery, if he sat in the back row, and where he was asked to get a piece of chalk, if he sat in the front. There is where he yelled for air when the ventilators were working, and where he turned the clock ahead on long days. There is where he slept when slides were being shown and staved awake for an hour when Dr. Kohner said, "This evening, ladies and gentlemen . There is where he recited Otology, and prayed that Dr. Babcock would call on somebody in the other half of the class. There is where he wondered how Dr. Robertson could know so much for one man, and where he learned of Prohibition as applied to Obstetrics and Head Trauma. There is where he was told tha t a proper and ethical aspect of medicine does not permit of using local treatment for more than four weeks unless it does some good other than to the purse. There is where he would like to go back and s tar t all over again.

tution has become one of the largest of its kind in Philadelphia. Temple University Hospital has a capacity of 375 beds, and the greater p a r t of its out-patient department is conducted in the new medical school building. Each department is excellently equipped and efficiently directed.

We always think of Temple University Hospital as our own, for it is here tha t we receive most of our clinical instruction. The Junior and Senior classes are assigned in rotat ing sections to the various departments, where, under the direction of outstanding teachers, they are taught practical medicine in the wards, operating rooms, clinics, dispensaries, laboratories, and autopsy rooms.

On the staff of Temple University Hospital are Clinicians who are not only eminent, but who are both nationally and internationally known. Their contributions to medical science, ar t , and li terature are a source of pride to us who are privileged to attend this institution. Each year, men of renown in some part icular field of medicine are added to its staff.

Under the able guidance of Dean Parkinson, medical director of the hospital, and in keeping with the spirit of progress of a Greater Temple, this institution is continuously expanding, and more than supplying the needs of a teaching hospital.

®lt£ dfntriisij Ifniijjrttal ^ T ' H I S modern, spacious hospital is located at York and Tabor Roads. I t ^ i ^ first opened in a small building on Westminster Avenue at Haverford Road and Fisher's Avenue, now Fifty-sixth Street in West Philadelphia. The following inscription in one of the hallways, epitomizes its aims and purposes:

"This hospital was erected by the voluntary contributions of the Israelites of Philadelphia and is dedicated to the relief of the sick and wounded without regard to creed, color, or nationality, under the management of a Board of Members of the Jewish Hospital Association." The Jewish Hospital occupies twenty-three acres, has a capacity of -126

beds, a resident staff of 12, and a chief resident. In addition, there are 115 student nurses, 35 supervisors, one chief nurse, an assistant, an educational director and assistant.

Through the kindness of its Board of Managers, this hospital became affiliated with Temple University in 1928. Under the supervision of Dr. Joseph C. Doane, former superintendent of the Philadelphia General Hospital, now director of the Jewish Hospital, the Senior Class has access to the wealth of medical and surgical material of this institution. We are indeed deeplv indebted and very grateful to the authorities of the Jewish Hospital.

'JTT'HE Garretson-Greatheart Maternity Hospital, located at Eighteenth and ^ • ^ Spring Garden Streets, was dedicated in 1923 by our beloved founder, Dr. Russell H. Conwell. I t is here that we receive most of our teaching in practical obstetrics. The Senior Class is assigned in rotating pairs until they have completed the required number of deliveries.

Can we forget being awakened, rushing to the delivery room, scrubbing, preparing the patient, and, under the expert guidance of members of the staff, bringing our first baby into the world? Or the first outside call—sometime after midnight—miles to go—cars few—arriving at the home—poorly lighted with a kerosene lamp—poverty—but a mission to fulfill—the satisfaction derived from safely conducting a soul through a trying hour. And perhaps the baby was named for you!

We are deeply indebted to the obstetrical department for their kindness to us during our stay at the Greatheart , and for the practical manner in which they taught us the art of obstetrics.

MEDNESDAY—Philadelphia General. On this day, the Junior and Senior classes, divided in sections, receive instruction in the various

departments of this mammoth hospital, where a wealth of material in ever}7

branch of medicine is to be found. This hospital began as the Almshouse, known as "The Green Meadows,"

which was first located at Third and Pine Streets. According to Agnew, "Green Meadows" was the first hospital in this country, having been founded in 1731. In 1767, this institution was moved to Tenth and Pine Streets, and renamed the "Bettering House." By order of the State Legislature, the present site was purchased in Blockley Township in 1882. At the suggestion of Dr. Gerhard, the man who established the distinction between typhoid and tvhus fevers, the name, "Philadelphia Hospital ," was adopted. Subsequently, the three main divisions of the institution were called, "The Philadelphia Home and Hospital for the Indigent," which sheltered the paupers ; "The Philadelphia Hospital for the Insane"; and the hospital proper, "The Philadelphia General Hospital ."

Thirty-five

ate iKmttri^al Ifiinjjrttal T I T H E history of this hospital dates back to the year 1726. It was then ^ ^ known as the "Pest House," and was located at Ninth and Spruce Streets. For over a hundred and fifty years this institution Mould disappear, then reappear again in the time of need at a more remote par t of the city. In the vear 1865, the hospital was located at Twenty-second and Lehigh, in a group of crude buildings which served its purpose until 1909. During this year, thirty-one separate buildings were constructed at a cost of about two million dollars, at the present site at Second and Luzerne.

In 1908, the late Dr. Samuel S. Woody became Medical Director and Superintendent. He stated that the then distant site was chosen for the hospital because, "With every one holding the misconception that infectious diseases were disseminated through the air, it was thought that no more isolated spot could be found than this which was, and is, hounded by farm land, a brick yard, and two cemeteries. Now we know that the institution could stand at Broad and Chestnut Streets with perfect safety to the communion."

The municipal hospital is equipped to take care of 1,150 cases in the event of an epidemic, and regularly treats 5,000 patients a year. It is the largest hospital for contagious diseases in the Western Hemisphere, and it probablv has more acute cases than any other similar institution in the entire world. Since 1909, some 90,000 patients have been treated, most of whom have been suffering from scarlet fever or diphtheria.

(lHy* iEarjlnrilk* ^anataiium ' ^ T ' H I S beautiful group of buildings, consisting of a modern hospital, a ^H/ convalescent building, a children's pavilion, ten cottages for recuperating patients, a nurses' training school and home, an administration building, a dining hall, power plants, and other structures, covers seventy-six acres. The Eagleville Sanatorium was founded in 1909 by Dr. A. J . Cohen, clinical professor of medicine at Temple LTniversity Medical School, and his staff.

This Sanatorium is one of the most modern and best equipped in the country for the treatment of diseases of the chest. While every type of tuberculous patient is treated here, this institution is perhaps best known for its work in the surgical treatment of tuberculosis. I t was among the first to employ artificial pneumothorax—a treatment which is now universally accepted.

In 1919, the Eagleville Dispensary was opened in Philadelphia, and is now located at Broad and Fitzwater Streets. Here, patients are examined, studied, classified, and guided until they are admitted to the sanatorium at Eagleville.

The Junior and Senior Classes are given the privilege of studying the management of the sanatorium treatment of tuberculosis at this institution, and we most sincerely appreciate this opportunity.

During the year of 1852, six patients were accommodated; while in 1901, there were 2,951 patients served in the hospital, and the dispensary handled an additional 23,337. Today, the Episcopal has grown to a capacity of 450 beds, and has a very large outpatient department.

"The Shriner's Hospital for Crippled Children—six short words—yet how they combine to spread their comforting message of hope and cheer from east to west, from north to south—in and out and up and down the length and breadth of this great land. How they echo and re-echo each year to more remote regions, falling like music on the ears of hundreds and thousands of suffering and tortured little souls, calling them down the road to health and happiness."

I t is in this institution that we receive practical teaching in every phase of orthopedics from Dr. J . Royal Moore, its chief surgeon, and Professor of Orthopedics at Temple University Medical School. Temple University considers itself fortunate in having its medical students admitted to this hospital, and many thanks are due the Board of Governors of the Shriners for this privilege.

Greetings:

3]]^0 DREAMS come true? You have dreamed of the day you would have conferred upon *^ you the coveted degree in medicine. I t has been an academic struggle to many, fraught with vicissitudes and self-sacrifices. But you will realize soon, that your dream has come true !

Best wishes for every success in your chosen profession. Honor its traditions, maintain its ethics, detract not from its culture and do your full share to advance the science and ar t of medicine.

Faithfully yours,

iQ^/aude & JpzuuujK/

To the Class of 1932:

S j N O T H E R year has rolled by and another group of students find themselves facing the world of Medicine. Each year the group which leaves the doors of Temple Medical School has proven itself

better fitted to face the Herculean task before it. Each year our students have shown themselves to be more earnest and more sincere. Your class is no exception. On the contrary, you have shown yourselves to be more will

ing to devote yourselves to lives of service, than any previous class. Do not forget that you still will be students after you graduate. Your studies have just

begun. Subscribe to the journals devoted to the field of medicine in which you are interested, and read them. Secure the most recent medical texts and read them. Join the medical societies and attend their meetings. Assign yourselves problems in medicine and devote yourselves to their solution.

Remember that those of us who helped to educate you are still willing to help you with your problems and are praying for your success—

"One ship drives east, another drives west, By the self-same winds that bloic. It is not the gales, but the set of the sails That determines the icay it shall go—"

«<7|rTIE half of knowledge is to know where to obtain knowledge." reads the inscription of a V1U new college library in Florida. But the acquiring of facts is valueless unless by vision

and imagination the knowledge gained is dynamized into useful action. Many had been told that inoculation by cowpox would give immunity to smallpox before Jenner had the genius to make the dormant fact of value to the world.

For years you, of the Class of 1032, have been acquiring facts. Opportunity now opens to express kinetic values from this static knowledge. May wise dreams and ideals guide you.

Merely a cordial greeting to my junior colleagues, about to enter the final stage of preparations for their life work. May success attend you in proportion to your rectitude and persistent effort. Medicine is not a quid pro quo. Indeed ! one of its fascinations is in giving more than we receive, at the same time humanly combating imposition. Unless content to accept this standard, you have not chosen wisely.

Sincere good wishes to the class of 1032.

Greetings to the Class of 1932:

TITHE P E D I A T R I C D E P A R T M E N T extends to each and every member of the Graduating Class a hearty welcome to membership in the medical profession, and offers the glad

hand of friendship, combined with the spirit of co-operation. I t is with mingled feelings of regret and pleasure that we see you depart from your Alma Mater, regret for ourselves and pleasure for you, but the knowledge that you are going out into the world well-equipped to practice your chosen profession and thoroughly imbued with the desire to spread the name and fame of old Temple, more than overcomes our regret at your departure.

Always bear in mind that the most welcome visitors to our Medical School and Hospital are members of our Alumni, and never lose an opportunity of retracing your steps to Broad and Ontario Streets, where you will always receive a hearty greeting from those, who have in any way participated in helping you obtain the little parchment that makes it possible for you to now say "au revoir," but not "good-bye."

I t is with the fondest hopes for, and firm belief in, your future success that we now bid you adieu.

^76-^-Vk^ To the Class of 1932.

"Zi N E X T E N D I N G many congratulations upon your attainment of what is probably up to the present time the most important objective of your lives, permit me to suggest a thought

relative to your duties. All formal relations with instructors are ended and all obligations discharged. Your

teachers in turn, have tried to point out the pathways into the future. Furthermore, they have manifested their trust in you and have no fear that it will be betrayed. Thus, in a sense the account is balanced. However, another responsibility exists and will continue throughout your lives. An institution is judged by its products. To a more important degree than you may now realize, the future of Temple University depends upon you. As your fields of activity enlarge, recognize and grasp the opportunities offered, keeping always in mind that as you succeed so likewise does the school which fostered you.

OUR graduation year marks the tercentenary of the birth of Leeuwenhoek, first of the microbe hunters and father of microscopy. What a progress in 300 years in the Aledical Sciences, and what an asset the microscope

and its revelations, which this humble Dutch merchant started. You, as you go forth, epitomize this progress, for you are part of it—eager for flight as

the fledgling for the wing. May you contribute to this progress, this building up of science, rather than commercialize, or rest in the belief that all has been conquered !

May you toil with zeal, not entirely for self, but largely to render service to your fellow man ! Seek stubbornly and incessantly for knowledge, to relieve misery and to prevent illness !

Let your enthusiasm for truth re-echo so that its reverberations shall resound, in the halls of your Alma Mater, to bring her at least the reflected glory of your success.

Sincerely and trustingly yours,

p-?P To the members of the Class of 1932:

f l ^ N C E again ambition to obtain a coveted medical degree ctilminates in success. ^ ^ Once again the University portals swing open to permit a group of young women and young men to lay aside the academic gown and tread the paths leading to interneships and practice of the healing art.

I t is blossom time to you. What will the fruit of the succeeding years be? Will it not be in ratio to the cultivation of the soil of the pre-clinical years, plus the care and supervision of the many branched trees of the clinical years? And as the interneship passes and the individual years of practice roll by, are you going to let the trees bring forth unseemly fruit, by reason of lack of persistent and insistent cultivation and care of soil and tree?

The tools of cultivation in your chosen profession are observation at the bedside, the laboratory, the books, the journals, the monographs, the society meetings and the will to do. Manual dexterity is a great tool, but behind the trained hands must always be the trained mind. What a tool is power of decision !

As you co-ordinate the use of your tools, there come the elements of calm judgment and successful procedure and these beget confidence. Toil on them, and strive ever that the harvest may be prime and abundant.

"Thirty-two," the years with you have to me been most pleasant. Success to you in the reaping of the harvest, is the wish of your friend and colleague,

Greetings to the Class of 1932:

<gj SOFT step, a smile and a soft modulated voice is frequently more helpful than the twenty capsules ordered. Never leave a sick room without first wishing your patient a restful

night and that the morrow will find him very much improved.

Dear Friends of the Class of 1932:

(2i S IDE from the subject of food and fluid—balance in the prevention of the "toxemia" of ^ * pregnancy, there are some other things worth mentioning as we approach the close of a very happy relationship as student and teacher.

For instance, I trust that I am not wholly presumptuous in assuming that, along with my worthy colleagues of the teaching faculty, I have had some little part, at least, in giving you much more than the "obstetrics." "medicine," "surgery," etc., called for in your curriculum of study. This "much more" to which I refer, may ultimately contribute in far larger measure to your professional success, than any degree of proficiency we may have helped you to acquire in the subject-matter we have tried to teach.

Let me make my little message entirely personal, therefore, by expressing the hope, that along with the "recognition of relationships," the "mechanism of labor," and the "etiology of eclampsia," there has gone out to each member of the class, an '"intangible something" that will help to carry him toward that real joy of living, that can only come in highest degree from a profound sense of having helped to make living, a real joy, which is, after all, the doctor's work.

Most cordially yours,

To My First Class at Temple:

IftOU MUST leave footprints on the sands of time. 3fUse them TODAY for sighting straight ahead. Though time and tide may both combine. Your path will show the life you led.


Y MESSAGE to you who are leaving the protection of this School is but a brief one: Find yourselves! I have always believed thai he who does the type of work that he

likes is rich indeed ; for money and pleasures are but the by-products of life.

if^OU are about to embark upon the active practice of medicine. A career which I hope you <=* have chosen wisely—that of achieving the end which all men strive for and desire— H A P P I N E S S and IDEALS . . . . A career made up of sacrifices will be part of your daily life work—the daily life of every man. Your life work will be with you in your 'sorrow as in your joy, in your work-a-day hours as in your leisure. Your work will be shared by the gentle and simple, learned and unlearned.

The marked materialistic tendencies of our time overshadow the ideals in medicine. A materially successful career does not always bring happiness. The goal is to foster good will —confidence between physician and patient. Make the most of your life's work and put ic to its best use ! The man who makes the everlasting sacrifices is the one who succeeds.

"I have helped my fellow man"—that spells SUCCESS and H A P P I N E S S . . . .


AY each one of you experience the personal pleasure and satisfaction which comes from work well done, although often unrecognized and unrecompensed. You will find your

happiness not in what medicine may bring to you in the form of material rewards, but in what you can bring to those who suffer and who place their problems in your hands.

As you enter into the duties of a Resident Physician, remember this is not merely an enforced period of further training, but the richest opportunity which you will ever have, to observe and record for mankind. These years will be your happiest years in medicine, in that you will be privileged to partake in the solution of many important medical and surgical problems without the necessity of assuming the grave responsibilities for the decision as to the course to be pursued or face the responsibilities of its outcome. You should learn to make these decisions to yourself, and carefully determine if the solution which you have to offer and the method by which it will be obtained are justified and entail what you would desire to have performed upon you. should you be the patient yourself.

Your period of interneship can be rich in its value to you in later life if you devote the short time allotted for this service to constant clinical investigation, study, research and postmortem observation, but the one or two years allotted for this purpose can be dissipated in merely covering the requirements of your duties and passed in idleness during the term of your apprenticeship, awaiting the day of reckoning when your colleagues expect of you no more than your lack of interest indicated that you deserved. The priceless reward in medicine is the confidence and faith that your colleagues will place in you, and this will be reflected in the patient who will seek your advice and assistance. The highest compliment that can come to a physician is the request to care for another physician or a member of his immediate family. The efficient and industrious resident physician becomes the recognized and successful practitioner of the future.

My advice to you would be to devote every possible moment of the precious months allotted to you to the study of disease and the wide variety of the clinical material that will come to your attention during the ensuing year. If your spare time is spent observing in the operating clinic, the laboratory, the accident ward and the dispensary, this clinical opportunity combined with the fundamental knowledge which you have obtained from the Faculty of Temple University School of Medicine will not only return to you an adequate reward for your untiring and conscientous efforts, but will further establish the distinction and recognition which your Alma Mater has already attained.

To the Graduating Class:

jftflf E D I C I N E is the art of healing the sick. Sickness means misery. Misery goes not with ** riches, but with poverty.

Misery and poverty are your fields of work. To cultivate these fields requires skill, work and courage.

You have skill. You have courage. Both of these have been tested in the furnace of preparation.

Take courage. Use your skill. Till these fields with kindness and understanding, and the crops you grow may not be honors, riches, or the so-called good things of life for yourself : but, humanity will have been blessed with your work; misery and poverty lessened.

Your work and your life are best expressed in the words of William Cullen Bryan t : '"So live, that when thy summons comes to join The innumerable caravan, tohich moves To that mysterious realm, wliere each shall take His chamber in the siient halls of death, Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night, Scourged, to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams."

C^'* To the Class of 1932:

^ T l l E medical world into which you are graduating is a complex one. In it you will find great masters and petty charlatans, Honest Scientists and dishonest "stuffed shirts." If your motives are sincere and your hearts are pure, you will prosper and succeed; and

you will place Science ahead of selfish gain, and the welfare of your patient ahead of everything.

May your devotion to science, and faithful service to your fellow men, bring lasting credit to your Alma Mater ; and may you always feel a loyal pride in her achievements.


%i CONGRATULATE you upon the successful completion of your course in Medicine and wish you God speed and every success in the practice of its art while being careful not to

omit or overlook what is of proven value in the science of medicine in relation to both the diagnosis and treatment of disease.


3 9 O U are graduating into the ranks of one of the most honored of professions. Let each one <5» of you do your work well and you will find success. Strive to add to the store of clinical material of medical art and take an interest in research into the, as yet, unknown mysteries of medicine. Thus will you do honor to Temple University School of Medicine.

Greetings,

ifW[Y ASSOCIATION with your class has been a most pleasant one— 2 ^ * I am glad for the opportunity to wish you further happiness and sue


3ft T HAS been your privilege to be taught both by the splendid pioneers who laid the founda-tions of our Temple, and by the laboratory men and clinicians who joined the faculty

during the Parkinsonian era. As one of the newcomers to Temple, teaching a subject which in this country has long been regarded as an academic stepchild, your sincere response has been most gratifying. Your record has been admirable, both in deportment and diligence. We who have been your instructors, now greet you as colleagues. As you leave your Alma Mater, the Hippocratic torch passes to your eager young hands. There it will shine with added luster, if you recall the fine sentiment of Adolf Kussmaul (1822-1002) :

Let us ask openly, gentlemen, what is all our medicine ivithout compassion and the poicer of self-denial? When science is struggling for knowledge and truth she requires men of arms, bold in combat and. cool of understanding; but when she descends from her lofty position to the sick and stricken, she must put on the mantle of humility, and' in forbearance and gentleness bear in her bosom a warm heart.


AiT SEEMS to me that the best way to test an elaborate theory is to explain it to a class of bright and ambitious students. If you succeed, you see the spark of beginning under

standing in their eyes, making you feel that you are in the right path. If you fail, think it over again. In this way I learned by teaching, perhaps quite as much as my students did, and I enjoyed it.

SJ/VL*. , ^ t W ' - c A & o - &

To the Graduating Class:

TTTO BE a good physician, you need three qualities: the knowledge of a thousand minute details to have at your disposal every minute; sympathy to feel with the suffering of your

fellow creature; power of suggestion to make your patients believe in you. All you can be taught, the school has given you. The rest you must acquire yourself.

I wish you these qualities united to such a harmony as to give you success in life.

€RRORS of commission, or omission, insofar as setting down the achievements and the failures of the Class of 1932 is concerned, are grievous. Being cognizant of this, the events which have obtained, directly or

indirectly connected with' the class as an integral unit, whether they be on the debit or credit side of the ledger, appear in the following paragraphs.

Any one can associate September of 1928 A. D. with a disastrous fire, earthquake or the like. Jus t so, at that time a rather cosmopolitan group began associating bugs known as bacteria with the third floor in the Garretson at Eighteenth and Baldwin's Works. Application and precision par excellence were always to be exercised. An open mind was to be kept on all problems; "you pay your money, you take your choice." There is no doubt but that the serious and sincere program as outlined by the Department of Bacteriology for that school year bore out the ideas which many had concerning Medical School ere they undertook their professional studies: eat and sleep rarely.

The skeleton peered warily as we trekked into Anatomy laboratory and became seated on most uncomfortable stools. Tha t six feet of an osseous homo sapiens withstood rough handling during the Freshman year. The carpals were usually fingered quite dexterously and it is quite possible that some of the so-called

"handshakers" there learned the art . The dissection room for us at first is adequately described thus :

" I t is airy and eerie, it flickers and flits, Like the flight of a bat wrhich it quite befits."

Nevertheless, the material for study and the high character of the teaching prompted many to do special work. So it was that every Saturday morning found some of the cadavers being dissected or injected, although it was not the Department 's primary object to make anatomists of any student—rather to be able to have

X-Ray like vision and knowledge at the bedside. We learned in a very few minutes the mistake of

taking voluminous notes in Chemistry Class. F a r better was it to sit back and listen to the eloquent lectures ranging from those on the chemistry of muscle contraction to those concerned with the endocrine system. Subjects of interest, well taught, automatically inscribe themselves on the mental note books of the persons taught. This fact is employed in comparison with another fact: Histology and Embryologv classes met every Wednesday. There wras also a practical examination.

j npljnmnr? f mv In 1929 Dr. William N. Parkinson

assumed his duties as Dean, relieving Dr. Frank C. Hammond, who was named Honorary Dean. The former, an alumnus of our school, had previously attained unto great heights in Surgery, at St. Augustine, Florida. His ability as an executive, likewise was of renown. He proved his fame was not

only hearsay, when he performed splendidly the duties imposed upon him by his new position. The hospital which had been running a large annual deficit was reorganized and put on a paying basis. A more friendly spirit between faculty and student body, and among the faculty themselves was engendered by his remarkable display of that very important a t t r ibute: tact. The courses and the school improved so much, and its fame spread so rapidly under his able guidance, the calibre of student who sought entrance became much higher, and the "last resort" became first choice.

The other new faces that looked into ours during the second year, belonged to Professors Hickey and Livingston, Doctors Lathrop, Kay, Enrich and Scheele, and Messrs. Mantz and Cornfeld. The professors of Physiology and Pharmacology were preeminent precision-ists. I t was said of the former course, that an army training came in very handy. "Your kimograph goes there, lever on the left side, dry cell batteries next at the proper angle." If such exactitude were disobeyed by too many during a laboratory period, either eyebrow became

haughtily raised high on the forehead of the teacher.

The gentlemen in the Pharmacy Laboratory were not so much concerned with how well prescriptions were filled, rather how much mixing, t r i tura t ing and pill rolling could be done in one hour, on Fridays. Perhaps the "Black Hole of Calcutta" has no place here, but, during the balmy spring days, pharmacy was a warm proposition. Neither was it very cool waiting for the last dog to die every Friday afternoon.

Neuro-Anatomy and Cross Section Anatomy classes convened Wednesdays at two, in the dissecting room. The melodious tones of "centripetal and centrifugal" were accompanied by the notes from the Philippine instrument: "Dis bloodbessel, iss came out from where?" Flashes of Irish and Philippine wit did not at all detract from the fact that the two

teachers who guided our anatomical destinies in 1929-1930, were and are ambulatory anatomical encyclopedias.

Drs. Fanz, Roxby, Hickey, Saylor and Gault went into tri-hourly conferences in the chemistry office on the fourth floor, often while Prof. Saylor prepared his lectures on Toxicology. The venerable doctor, most of the time, was seen talking to faculty members and students, lecturing, working in the laboratory? or hurrying somewhere for a consultation on a "poison" case. During the evenings at North Wales, it is said he read extensively, excerpts having been incorporated into those gems of lectures on Toxicology, when one hour was like a delightful ten minutes.

The floor below the urine flasks harbored all kinds of vegetable and animal organisms, including several doctors, technicians, and students peering through microscopes at what they thought was a section of "hob-nail liver." There was a wrench thrown into the scholastic machinery when it was announced that "odds" would stay here and "evens" would go the Pathology Museum across the "Bridge of Sighs." This famous bridge was the scene of many last minute questions: does the capsule strip with ease; how much did you say the liver weighs; nephrosis or nephritis; does it have a pale, cooked appearance. At the time we didn't appreciate those unannounced exams or their propagators, but right now the undergraduate chapeaux are off to those self same men, because they realize now that those men always had the student's interest at heart.

In order to prepare the Class of '32 to inspect, palpate, percuss and auscultate properly upon the "victims" of the clinical years to come, Dr. Kay demonstrated his technique on the fourth floor of the Greatheart Hospital and also at the Episcopal. We all used to marvel at the apparent ease and skill with which he used to percuss out the borders of the heart, also the ability to observe Litten's phenomenon.

And last, but most certainly not least, Dr. Emich's famous "pikstchers" of gangrene, snake bites, etc., will never be forgotten.

dJmttnr f ?ar October, 1930—according to the calendar hanging adjacent to the lengthy

"Schedule of Classes—Junior Year," school started a week late. Either some of the furnishings were being prepared, were sidetracked at an outpost or the interior decorators believed that "time and more time" brings results. Anyway, during those weeks of hustle and bustle for artisans and faculty members, approximately four hundred students ambled about corridors, laboratories, lecture rooms, conference rooms, and offices on seven floors, surveying" the wonders of a modern, thoroughly equipped Temple dedicated to the Hippo-cratic Art . "What a place," many commented—and what a place for the upper classmen, who perhaps much the more appreciated the fruition of the dreams some of our venerable teachers and their colleagues have had in recent years.

Into a maze of learning and amazement walked the Junior Class. Not much aware concerning; the mental gigantism of men such as Babcock, Hammond, the elder Robertson, Dr. Steel, and Dr. Robinson, members of the class who are known to be immune, sat with adenoid facies under the spells of the clinical teachers. From one classroom to another, from one ward patient's bed to another, from one blood count and differential to another, from one maternity case at midnight to another at 4.00 A. M., from one chapter in Surgery to another—that was the repertoire.

If anyone mentioned a show, such an one was considered too brilliant a student to associate with, or maybe in the first stages of certain conditions our pyschiatrist mentioned at the " P . G. H . "

Many wondered whether the previous years were so fraught with Scylla and Charybdis, or with the dreaded thought of sitting under the old apple tree in the summertime. These were the students who transferred from schools in the south and beyond the Mississippi. The class was augmented by two-thirds its number, statistics concerning other things not being available. Suffice it to recall the newcomers were congenial, many of them of a not too serious turn of mind, students, and politicians — the type who could enjoy a little joke, like aiding in the perpetration of prelecture classroom antics of other than professional variety (goose step, or procto-

logical ga i t ) .

The Junior Class numbering more than one hundred members was present at the Dedicatory Exercises of the New Medical School Building, Wednesday, October the fifteenth, 1930, in St. Paul's Reformed Episcopal Church. Among the notables on the platform at the gala event were Hon. H a r r y A. Mackey, Drs. Wm. J . Mayo, Wm. N. Parkinson, W. Wayne Babcock, Frank C. Hammond, Wilmcr Krusen, Chevalier Jackson and Chas. E. Beury. The honorary degree of Doctor of Laws was conferred upon Dr. Mayo on this occasion. President Beury succinctly described the progress of the building from the time ground was broken October 15, 1928, the cornerstone laid June 18, 1929, until the day of dedication. The school was inspected during the afternoon hours by several thousand persons, having had all points of interest described by guides.

The Christmas Holiday period presented the first real lull in scholastic activities. Several weeks previously the faculty decided to test the amount of knowledge gleaned during the first half of the Junior year, and two or three examinations were off the list. The vacation constituted an interlude in a school year filled with a zeal on the pa r t of students to acquire medical acumen, and a zeal equalled by teachers to impart it. Medical school was becoming a place more respected, because the third year students there learned things of diagnostic and therapeutic value which their successful family phvsicians knew nothing about. New avenues toward increasing the professional armamentarium were constantly opened.

An active interest was displayed in the scientific societies, devoted to the study of problems of vital importance in Medicine. The auditorium witnessed many noted authorities discuss papers concerning their work. The students on occasions took pa r t in the discussions, even being the primary attractions (no sleight-of-hand tr icks) , and accredited themselves as being of teaching caliber (some with a large sized shovel).

A few of the societies engaged in social activities, such as banquets and dances, amidst a more or less carefree atmosphere in Mitten Hall, the Benjamin Franklin Hotel, Penn A. C , and Manufacturers ' Club. Teachers, students and friends mingled and lingered for hours, the conversations and actions, of course, being of a scientific nature.

These society events were much more delectable than final examinations, but the latter have their place in the curriculum, and although placed on the menu as the dessert at a banquet, to some appear as the bitter stomachic taken before the first course. The dessert oftimes consists in the news of having passed the re-examination in September. Of the days between May 12 and 25, 1931, little need be here recorded. Those were tryst ing days with all the notes and books which could be gathered on approximately fifteen courses. The stimulants and sedatives corresponded to the periods immediately preceding and following each quiz. After it was all over, "Home, Sweet Home" was much more beautiful and expressive than Foster could ever have hoped it wrould be.

The third year, didactic as it was, served a background for the last year, where clinical and bedside work was in the foreground. The fixation of ideas after associating them by means of the mind's eye and physical eye is thus assured, except in those individuals wThere verbal anaesthesia played a leading role. Then there is to be taken into consideration also the loss of perspective as results when some individuals crowd "up front," or persist in auscultating a half hour over the "vicious circle," while half a dozen others pass remarks concerning such audacity. Such people in all their vast experiences, never heard of Roberts ' Rules of Order, or else associate them with slide rules, which are difficult of memorization.

the corner! Seniors, me lad, and a chance to stop writing and inspect, percuss, palpate and auscultate real live patients, and perhaps even minister to their needs and illnesses. Yesireeece, wThat a "grand and glorious feelin' ".

Clinics a-plenty and lectures few, and to some in our class even fewer. There was no accurate record kept of how many times some of our classmates were down at the Greatheart , but A. B. C. has the record: twenty-two times.

If any one does not remember the treatment for eclampsia it wron't be the fault of Dr. Arnold. Wednesday was "eclampsia" day, with case records and output and intake charts galore. But this day served its purpose. I t indelibly stamped on our minds one of the most important advances in the field of obstetrics.

To cap a Monda}'- afternoon we sat and listened to the words of wisdom of Dr. Robertson. After three lectures on kidney function wTe began to Avonder if this learned scholar couldn't teach Pl^siology as well as

Medicine. Tuesday morning when we were lucky, Dr. Parkinson

came in to teach us some Surgical Anatomy and regale us with little shafts of humor, especially funny wrhen they weren't directed at yours truly.

Tuesday afternoon we were kept awake by Dr. Thomas' jokes or by Dr. Hammond's earnest entreaties to regard post-menopausal hemorrhage as indicative of malignancy unless proved otherwise. Dr. Thomas did some swell nephrectomies and Dr. Hammond removed a fibroid

of the uterus tha t needed a derrick to lift it from the abdomen. Following; these clinics we had a swell time dodging Austins to get to Dr. Kolmer's class on time.

Thursday morning, Babcock clinic and woe betide you if you came in late or w<ere absent. Do you remember the one about the Duchess? Gall stones galore and slides a-plenty to help the heat and humidity complete their dirty work.

Thursday P. M., Drs. Mills, Goldberg, Dietz and Snyderman represented the Pediatrics Department. Drs, Wright and Ersner alternated Thursda}^ t rying to inculcate the principles of Dermatology and Otology in us. We'll never forget that case of Alopecia Areata Dr. Wright once showed us. I t looked like some one had thrown patches of hair at a sticky billiard ball.

Friday morning, young "Robbie," who really gave us some tips that we feel are going to help us in the practice of medicine. Friday afternoons for the first pa r t of the year Dr. Hibshman.

And don't tell us you don't know the causes of rectal bleeding. If you don't you were probably down at the Greatheart , a wee bit out of turn. A few times some of the men forgot the names of the patient 's history they were supposed to look up, but what are imaginations fori'

anyhow? The last pa r t of the year Dr. Ridpath "took a crack" at us and this congenial gentleman kept us in rare good humor by his ability to lecture as well as his ability to tell a good one now and then. His sister specialty, taught by Dr. Ersner came on alternate Thursdays. His clinics were always enjoyable as well as instructive and we learned a good deal about Medical "Spychology" as well as Otology from "Mat t . "

Saturday morning Dr. Burnett got his final chance of the week to read case histories at us. By the end of the year he had us so trained we knew the answers the first guess, more power to him. Dr. Fay, jus t coming from a long distance call from Seattle, was next. If we don't understand more about cerebral anoxemia, water balance, the pain mechanism, and the treatment of head trauma cases it won't be the fault of this learned young man. He

tried hard enough to impress us with the latest developments in Neuro-Surgery, in which he has had no small hand himself.

Dr. Winkelman with his infectious smile capped the week. He is one of the few men on the faculty who could have kept us awake and interested after three hours in that amphitheatre. I t always occurred to us that the original amphitheatres were built in the wide open spaces,

with God's own sunshine and fresh air all about. Why they call that place an amphitheatre is not known except tha t it's so different from the original conception of one.

These four years have passed rapidly. During that brief period many lasting friendships were made among students and teachers. Let us hope that our works in the future, away from their side, will cause them to value these friendships more highly than ever.

AMLETO ACQUAVIVA, B.S.

IG hearted, generous and friendly. Always ready to lend a helping hand. No task too hard. Friend of all, enemy of none—even though some of the

larger fellows succeeded in getting him "flustered" and excited occasionally.

"Acqua," we call him, and his name truly becomes him, for he always has an answer that is to the point. He must, because invariably the professors call on the first man in the alphabet, and "Acquaviva" it is.

Sociable and likable too, and a good conversationalist. Facile and fluent without deliberation. Always ready to make friends. Neither bold, nor yet retiring. His aptitude and congeniality have made him a popular student. 'Acqua 's" many assets, plus his hard work and logical mind, are going to carry him far in the medical world. Good luck, "Acqua" !

CONSTANTINE ADAMIAK, JR.

**(7tT>AM," as he is known to all of us, arrived in our midst just four years ^ * ago from the vicinity of Scranton. During this time he has made many

friends due to his diligence and never failing ability to answer all questions, both in the classroom and on the outside. His early training at St. Thomas College has stood him in good stead in this respect.

"Adam,"' whose radiance shines from the back row, where he has always occupied a seat, would rather talk than eat. How often lie held us spellbound by his lengthy dissertations on various topics of importance is a matter of history. He is known to be one of the few misogynists of his class, but oh, how he loves the "talkies" !

I t is needless to state that with his brilliance, knowledge, and capacity for remembering even the minutest details of the various subjects of medicine, we may expect accomplishments in years to come.

ABRAHAM ALTSCHULER, B.A.

*tCKESH from the land of pickaninnies and "mammy songs' came "Al." He j) took his first two years at Alabama, and we are sorry that the time must soon arrive when we can no longer hear those stories of "Bammy" and especially of that famous "sorority row."

"Al" was not in our midst long before he proved that he had acquired the rare quality of being able to study, and how we envied his endless ambition in this direction ! When all others were complaining that the grind was killing, "Al" would smile and say that no one ever died from work.

During his stay here, he acquired a vast fund of information on things medical, which he used last summer, at the Lincoln Hospital in New York City.

"Al" has always been liked by the class for his ability to smile, for his keen sense of humor, and for his ability to keep the Philadelphia girls occupied. He is big hearted. Level headed, and be will be missed by many when our trails lead to different destinations.

ARAMANDO M. ANTOMMATTEI, B.S.

^fpIIE boys prefer to call him just "Tommattei," and he always comes back ^ with a broad smile, even under the most severe "kidding." Perhaps this is why most of the fellows like to "kid" him. He takes it all good naturedly,— a quality worth while, which has won him many friends and admirers.

He is regarded as the "Adolphe Menjou" of the class, not only because of his immaculate appearance, but also because of his profile and infra-nasal bit of darkness. According to certain of his classmates, he even has a wee bit of influence over the "gentler" sex.

But in all earnestness, "Tommattei"' is a mighty likeable chap with a keen and practical mind. He is a tireless, ceaseless, worker, and a conscientious, energetic student with a heart of gold.

These characteristics have won him many friends, and undoubtedly will be a great help to him in his chosen profession. Good luck, to you, "Tommattei."

JESSE O. ARNOLD, II, B.S.

''QfESS," who came to us from the mid-state "cow college," was not long with j ' us before he made himself known as a quiet, practical student, not caring

for a part in boisterous discussions or for political honors. But when he had occasion to say something, one knew what was to follow would be of some practical application. "Jess" was a student who did not believe in memorizing paragraphs, or in making a last minute rush to "bone-up" for an exam, for his was a plan of daily advancement. A heap of reading with little thinking will never characterize this man's medical preparation.

Always correctly and nicely dressed, "Jess" possessed a poise that was not easily disturbed, and this, together with his tall, mannerly bearing marked him among his classmates as a unique individual. Respected by all his classmates, and honored by his friends, "Jess" may safely take the next step in his medical career without hesitancy, for he has learned to think in terms of the patient, and not in terms of isolated scientific facts.

"Trr jANKS" first drew our attention early in the Freshman year by being r& unable to solve the riddle of the "rich boy and his marbles." However,

his thorough knowledge of Latin, and of a great many other academic subjects, convinced us of the intellectual capacity which this likable class mate possesses.

His pleasing personality and smiling countenance have endorsed him with the ability to make friends and hold them. His knowledge of the assets of the weaker sex is another quality which his intimate friends envy him.

"Banks" will interne at the Cooper Hospital in Camden, N. J. If his assiduous application to his studies is a criterion, we do not hesitate to predict a future of interest and success in any field in medicine which he may choose to follow.

JACOB JOSEPH BELFER, B.A.

f ACK, another "Skeeter," decided to go South, and learn the wiles of the fair sex, among other things, before coming to our Alma Mater. He

doesn't do things by halves, so he hied himself all the way to Alabama, hearing that the warmth of the southern belles increased in direct proportion to the distance South.

Make no mistake, gentle reader, medicine is "Jack's" prime interest. Just ask him anything about our course and you'll soon learn that. Jack's mentality is such that he can mix business with pleasure and succeed at both. Whenever any of the "profs" were kind enough to announce the results of any "exam," "Jack" was always found among the nineties.

We wish him every success !

studying. I t would be impossible to class him as a grind, tho, and we wish to compliment him for his earnestness, his sincerity, and his accomplishments.

His personality was a likable one. except on rare occasions when pessimism held him in its throes, and then it was all we could do to make him see the well-known and oft' mentioned silver lining. "Bernie" showed the rest of the class that small stature did not necessarily limit a man's ambition, for he was known to take each professor's lecture verbatim, even when the rest of the class was suffering from writer's cramp.

With the careful, painstaking faculties which he has the good fortune to call his own "Bernie" is bound to go far in the field of medicine, and we wish him luck.

His mind is always alert to the varied possibilities of any given case, and it is this quality that will serve him well in the many emergencies that every busy doctor is bound to meet.

Despite his apparent nonchalance, "Al" has made some brilliant diagnoses, which have required not only basic, fundamental medical knowledge, but careful, analytical interpretation as well. We do not hesitate in predicting for him a brilliant future.

A N T H O N Y C. BRANCATO

•7TT IIEY call him "Bronc," this tall, lean, muscular young man. And well ^ named is he, for the stamina, courage, and loyalty of those fiery steeds of the western plains form the nucleus of his character.

Many a maiden's heart has skipped a beat watching his manly and graceful form, as he tripped the "light fantastic," gliding in and out among the other couples. With effortless ease his popularity among the weaker sex has increased, for "Bronc" is quite a sheik. But not all of his accomplishments have been on the dance floor and in other forms of recreation.

"Bronc's" achievements in the class room brought envy to the hearts of many of his classmates. While they, poor souls, ground their noses to the study wheel, he showed that not only could business be intermingled with pleasure, but that in many instances this was more advantageous.

We expect to hear great things of "Bronc" in the future. His courage, loyalty, and ingenuity will do much to advance the medical profession, and medicine will have an earnest and conscientious follower.

These are. however, only the minor things in "Bob's" life, for always he has a goal to attain ; progress in medicine. Never content to "just get by," "Bob" has been a studious worker, and the result is that be is a Robertson man. For him, success need not be predicted for be has already found success. Is not the urge to be at the to]), the willingness to stick with a task until finished. the ability to make friends and hold them, and the art of carrying oneself in a manner that impresses, the road to accomplishment in any field?

(7t STURDY descendant of Southern aristocracy ! "Brick" and his room-mate ^** Robertson comprise a formidable combination. Aside from being an adept and arduous student, he is tin' happy possessor of a hearty laugh, that, when in full bloom, sets the ether waves frantic with reverberation.

This boy from the "you-all" country has won a host of friends since coming to Temple two years ago. If present indications are to be accepted, there is no uncertainty as to his future success.

His ability to detect cardiac pathology has disturbed the mental complacency of many of his co-workers. "Time and more time" is his modus operandi and he proposes to ' Cure sometimes, relieve often, comfort always."

With "Brick's" wholesome, homespun philosophy, canny humor, and sympathetic understanding, he is destined to make a name for himself.

Harold's ability is not confined entirely to the field of medicine. His literary ability is outstanding, and we suggest that S.

good nature. He brings with him the best traditions of the South.—first among these, that a man should be a gentleman. A soft drawl, the absence of formality, and a ready smile bespeak an exterior as smooth as velvet. Consistency of opinion, steadfastness of purpose, and loyalty to views reveal an interior as hard as steel.

Carlisle's first interest is medicine, and in the pursuit of knowledge he strives for practical information. For recreation, he enjoys few things better than a good cigar over a fast game of bridge.

Fred has delved enthusiastically into the mysteries of the healing art. One cannot forget his classical description of the coarse, stubby hirsutum, which he delivered in the old anatomy laboratory in a manner bespeaking his profound knowledge of anatomy.

In the dispensary, Cornelius was always willing to advise his associates, and his method of developing the history of "strains" was beyond the comprehension of his fellow students.

He spends much of his spare time delving into the problems of physiology, and we shall not be surprised, when, in the near future, he presents a paper on the solution of one of the now unsolved problems in physiology.

Faust is a natural born teacher, and he has always willingly helped those of his fellow students who have needed his assistance. AVho, of a certain group, does not remember the nights in the basement anatomy room of the old medical school, with Faust giving lantern slide demonstrations of the then famous histology course?

Do not think that he is wrapped up in his books and research problems to such an extent that he has no time for other things. We have it on good authority that he is quite well acquainted with one of the Junior classmen,—• or is it classwomen.

Faust achieved his greatest success as president of the Hickey Physiological Society. Under his energetic leadership, programs of the highest type were presented.

Here is a pathfinder in medicine. Some day we shall he proud to say, "1 was graduated in the same class with Faust ."

RALPH HERBERT FEICK, B.S.

" T R E R T ' S " careful, immaculate dress is an external expression of his r& assiduous care in medical studies. Here, apparently, is a follower of

Dr. Astley in believing that "those things worth doing at all. are worth doing well." His carefully written notes and histories prove that he is a student who always does his work carefully.

His supreme interest in his work kept "Bert" sitting in the front row throughout his medical career. Even the siege of those Monday morning bouts with Dr. Babcock failed to dislodge Feick and his cohort Jones from their "ringside" seats. So consistent have these two men been in their choice of seats, that they probably don't know there are other "benches" in the lecture room.

"Bert ' s" capabilities are many and varied. He was appointed to the SKT:LL art staff and his work speaks for itself.

Suave, debonair, diligent, conscientious, he's just bound to succeed as a physician.

and whose common sense and sound reasoning are a pillar of support for those who are wont to seek his advice. Constant application to his study of medicine has made him a leader and has won for him the singular honor of presidency of the Robertson Honorary Society.

An aspiration to become an authority on that much abused part of the human economy, termed in polite society, "the lower respiratory tract." has been staunchly held to since embryonic medical days. That "Lou" has achieved success and will continue to garner honors is undoubted.

ii7fT IS said that all work and no play make Jack a dull boy, but "Phil" has ^ ^ disproved this proverb. An incessant worker, delving deeply into the

study of medicine, he attained the heights for which many can but aim. This in no way affected his congenial personality, for early in his medical studies, he was initiated into our well-known society, and dubbed "One of the Boys."

His interest Avas not only confined to medicine. Many a fair patient's heart skipped a beat or two when "Phil" passed by resplendent in his clean white coat. But Phil didn't believe in mixing business with pleasure, and confined his attentions to the opposite sex on the outside, l ie never talked about it much and we can't tell whether it's a blonde or brunette who has won his heart.

"Phil" had a veritable encyclopedia of knowledge at his finger tips, and was always up among the "four hundred" of our class. We predict a great future for this man who has overcome many difficulties and yet has had time to be a gentleman and a scholar.

PHILIP F. FORTIN, B.S.

((& CCA SION ALLY we meet a man with a poise to be admired; again we ^^ meet a man who inspires; and still again we may meet a man with whom we instinctively desire friendship ; but rarely do we find one man endowed with all these qualities. Such a man is "Phil." "Phil" or "Stubby." as he is known by his more intimate friends, represents the state famous for the Plymouth Rock. "God's Country" has a no more ardent supporter, for just as "Phil" is faithful to his friends, so is he faithful to his state and to his school.

Quiet and yet carrying conviction by his very quietness, "Phi l" gradually, but surely, advanced from one position to another, and the class, recognizing his ability, elected him president in its Junior year. This really meant the moulding of two groups : the one that had studied for two years at other schools scattered over the country; the other, the men of the original class. These groups were of almost equal size. How well he fulfilled the task imposed on him was long since demonstrated in a most successful Skull Dance, and in complete harmony among class members.

Here's luck, old man !

PAUL N. FRIEDLINE, B.S.

•TirlllS diminutive disciple of Hippocrates makes up in mental brawn, and ^ strength of character what he lacks in stature. Those of his friends who have delved beneath the cloak of his quiet unassuming exterior have found in him an immeasurable degree of friendliness and reliability.

The neatness of his notebooks have been the envy of his colleagues since he was a Freshman. We can just see tin' cockles of his hospital chiefs' hearts warming when they inspect his charts. We can just hear the joyful exclamation of the druggist when Paul's many patients present his legible prescriptions.

Paul has a leaning towards Neurology. His memory for the whereabouts and why of such things as tin; supra-marginal gyrus and Deiter's nucleus is at times uncanny.

Never again need Johnstown fear the ravages of a Hood, for this energetic exponent of Dr. Fay will have the city on a correct "water balance." the first week he's in practice.

His last summer was spent at keeping a staff of nurses happy at the Taylor Hospital. Incidentally, he, together with Roxy and Oppenheimer. proved to be a boon to the hard working medical staff there, by running the hospital as they thought it should be run. That this was agreeable to the stall is evidenced by the fact that they are still at that institution.

Although Clay may seem unusually quiet, we have learned that he is quite full of life, and capable of many pleasing smiles.

Clay is one of those who believes that for every "wherefore" there must be a "why." For those who doubt this, we ask only that you engage him in an argument. Woe unto your vaunted knowledge if you can't explain your ideas with facts.

Sincere in purpose, eager to learn, and not too proud to accept suggestions from those less capable than himself. Clay will shortly make a sound reputation of being a good family doctor.

From the very beginning it was apparent that "Don" was a man of no mean ability. The class recognized this and he emerged from the Freshman elections president of the class.

Who will forget those early days, when he called the class to order with a stentorian. "Well, Fellows" V Since then he has acquired more humble virtues. He plays a fine game of pinochle, and enjoys riding in a rumble seat in the cool of the evening.

We shall always remember him trying to make Dr. Konzelman understand the principles behind the Kidney function tests and his explanation of the "breakfastless breakfasts."

MAXWELL P. LIPMAN

/ A X L Y a few can explain the etymology of "Mutt 's" name. In this manner ^ ^ we have always addressed him, and years biter when he is one of the nation's leading surgeons we shall still know him as "Mutt." He is a sincere and diligent worker. His studies have always been taken seriously, although he h;is found time to play. His studies however, did not suffer thereby.

We really believe that "Mutt" should specialize in Pediatrics, for the Summer that he spent as child's nurse, attendant, or what have you, to a group of young rascals in a mountain resort should prove invaluable to him in the management of children.

He is deserting the East for California. We wish him all the luck in the world in his newly adopted home.

Bringing with him the acclaim of a grateful student body of Franklin and Marshall College for his deeds on the gridiron, "Steve" launched his ship at once in his quest for knowledge. And how he launched i t ! Ambitious and sincere, he tackled every obstacle as be had once tackled his hard charging opponents. He hurdled every stone in his path until he had established himself.

"Steve" heard somewhere that the genus Homo Sapiens was a gullible lot. Some of his stories were enough to send the class into hysterics, but his serious mien at times won multitudinous listeners. "Steve" will be found at Lancaster General, and the good wishes of the class go with him.

TftJP FROM the South, via the University of North Carolina, comes "big ^ * boy" Lupton. Lupton is a "man mountain" and be possesses a heart in proportion. Carroll has had considerable experience in the grunting and groaning art of wrestling. He realized that a healthy mind needs a healthy body—to be able to function properly, and already having the former he went out to secure the latter.

Last year. Lupton obtained a Junior Intemeship at the North Eastern Hospital, which he has continued to serve during the present year. "In obstetrics," savs Lupton. "all we have to do is keep 'em from falling on the floor."

Lupton is a good, practical man and together with his wrestling experience should develop into an expert obstetrician.

"Mac" always appears to have a definite purpose. Even his walk suggests some urgent business ahead thai needs solving. What then, could be more logical than that "Mac" should be the business manager of this book—tin1

completion and success of which is in no small way due to his capable management.

Efficient, energetic, always with a happy ''Hello Charlie" for his friends. ready to help and to shoulder responsibility. "Mac" has been an indispensible member of the class. Ilarrisburg Polyclinic is indeed fortunate to have so capable an interne.

ambition to procure a medical education. I t seems that Nature didn't do right by our "Mack," for he was more often seen than heard in class. He thus attained the reputation of being one of the most quiet students. Possessed of a sincere nature, and of a pleasing personality, "Mack" realized that pranks were all right in their place, but that their place was not in medical school.

A hard worker, and an earnest, capable student, '"Mack" went along the rough, rocky road of four years in medical school, taking all his courses in high, and never shifting gears during his quest for the desired medical education.

His unruffled, quiet mien often served to calm the gloomy pessimists about him, specially when examinations were nigh, and he was always liked for it. With all the glowing qualities, "Mack's" future is an assured success.

Spending his last two years in the Joseph Price Memorial Hospital, "Pete" seriously studied surgery. We firmly believe that this experience will stand him in good stead when he embarks upon a career in surgery. This will help him in eradicating stray appendices and gall bladders that the present clay surgeons have missed.

"Pete" recently astounded the entire school when he was admitted as an interne to the Methodist Hospital in Philadelphia which had not heretofore, accepted a Temple man. We are sure that "Pete" will make good, and our best wishes go with him.

Truly, here is the Rudy Yallee, of the class of " ' 32 . "

"Obbey" is a "second looey" in the army, and he longs for the day when he will be a major in the medical corps. Perhaps his training accounts for his military bearings, and bis springy step which reflects a spirit that is ever gay.

his thought, and a very clear thinker. "Oppey" asked questions which had meaning, and showed a deep understanding of his medical work. A wise mind once said, "To question a subject intelligently, one must first know whereof he asks."

During the Sophomore year, "Oppey" and Faust became interested in physiologic research, and many are the little frogs they pithed. Faust, still continues his research, and by now is undoubtedly the champion pither. but "Oppey" has put aside research on animals to take up more practical research on the unsuspecting patients of Taylor Hospital, which he runs with the assistance of Gallager and Roxby. There's a rumor, probably unfounded. that while not interning, "Oppey" spends his time at a little white house around the corner, where he does his "studying."

^ J N D a man who entertains an astounding diversity of interests! Among ^ * them—Entomology. Ornithology. Paleontology, Anthropology and—are there any more? If there are. Seletz is interested; has a disturbing knowledge of it and a collection that some museum would give a couple of eye-teeth to procure, but will have to be content with a tentative promise of a kindly will. ,

A quizzical fellow with a disarming charm of personality and a twinkle in the eye ! Never so disarming as when he seems most serious. . . . It is best to think twice before answering his most casual query, and decidedly advisable to count ten before taking flattery at his compliment.

We .all know him as the class sculptor. With what ease he makes clay take form. Here is the man to put art into medicine !

Emil's current mania, however, is not only to carve a few appendixes, but also a figure in marble! Ob. well—he'll do both and we'll like it.

FLOYD W. SHAFER, B.S.

jJ7T* OWN from the foothills of the Poconos came a smiling "Dutchman." a gay ^** Lothario who captured feminine hearts with his masculine charm, and won the friendship of all his classmates with his infectious laughter.

During the summer vacations of his medical career, we find "Shaf" employed in many and varied occupations, trying to defray his medical expenses. Firs t as a plumber, then as a concrete contractor, and finally as salesman of that world famous drink, served even in the best of families: Coca-Cola. "Shaf" achieved his ambition and bought a "coupe" which later almost proved his undoing. To fall asleep in class is fraught with danger, but at the wheel of a moving car. . . . Well . . . judge for yourself.

Floyd aspires to follow in the footsteps of Dr. Hammond, and judging by his conquests of the opposite sex, we can assure him success in his chosen field.

ZflSrT ^ ^ t n e reservedness of a judge and the wisdom of a philosopher, com-^•^J* pounded with an innate humor at opportune moments, "Freddie" has gained the confidence, respect and friendship of his classmates. His secretive-ness, however, did not permit us to know his abilities relating to the "fairer" sex until he had joined the ranks of the Benedicts.

Many qualities commend "Freddie." He is sincere and has good ideas: is always- independent in thought, remaining cool, serene, and level headed ; often serious, almost to a fault, but has a "knack" of breaking out with a witticism to the delight of those about him. He makes friends somewhat slowly, but built to endure the wear and tear of ages.

We praise "Freddie" for his fairness, honesty, and willingness to help others. He is a good student, earnest and diligent, with .an ability to quickly grasp facts and remember them. He is recognized by his classmates as a student, a worker, a thinker, and above all a gentleman. These qualities, among others, are sure to win the recognition be deserves ; a big success.

JOHN EDWARD SHORT, B.A.

"rtpD," AS he is called by his classmates, is a descendant of the sturdy Welsh, ^ well known for their courage and determination. "Ed" arrived in our

class from the University of Southern California, during our Junior year.

He promptly set to work with his roommate, Clyde Wilcox, to conquer everything that came within his sight,—medical knowledge as well as women. He succeeded quite well in the former; about the latter he's' just a wee bit reticent. We don't blame him. A bit of indiscretion may spell disaster, and all his work will have gone for naught.

We can predict but one thing for "Ed," success—first as a general practitioner and later as a great clinician !

"Graf" is going out into the world to cure the ailments of all mankind. He always has a good cure for everything, especially psoriasis.

He has, however, a more serious side since he received "the Benedictine Degree" in his Sophomore year. His greatest interest lies in a Special Delivery from Cleveland.

Grafton's humor and ready wit has helped to make our years of study more pleasant and we can predict a bright future for this promising young practitioner.

He was always ready to help out with anything at his command, and, together with Cava and Cucinotta, made up a group, which enjoyed the local reputation of being a second group of the three musketeers,—"One for All, and All for One."

Among his many accomplishments is his knowledge of the Jewish vocabulary, with which he has often entertained those about him. teaching them many things they never knew .about that tongue. "Tony" went through medical school, laughing at worries, and having a good time, although be did not neglect bis work in the least; he is a Robertson man.

OSSESSING a pleasing personality and a wealth of good nature. "Joe" early attained a popularity which he has carried with him through school.

With this, he has many other attributes of a good physician, for he is a keen student, a clear thinker, and an ardent follower of Aesculapius. Earnestly delving into his studies, as in all other things he tries, "Joe" upholds the University Motto : "Perseverantia Vincit," for his persevering work has enabled him to attain a high standing scholastically.

"Joe" believed that Medicine had its lighter side, for he regaled us many a time with an exchange of professional jokes. He indulged in humoring the class as a member of the class quartette, which did yeoman duty in breaking the tension before many an important examination.

None can read the future, but if we could, we would see that "Joe" has succeeded; and if his present rate is an index to his future we can enjoy that exhilarating feeling of having been right. May your good work be an incentive to others !

His ability to enliven the bus trips to all football games will long be remembered by all. Along with being an ardent student he was °lso known for his philanthropies in supplying his big rotund roommate with choice cigarettes.

His hobbies were shorter Fraternity meetings and more time for songs, and nothing gav him more pleasure than to shout, "Let's have some harmony, boys." The opera lost a shining star, but the medical profession gained one, when "Walt" chose medicine as his calling.

A path beset with many obstacles lies behind as "Worry" enters upon the threshold of life's work.

Wendt seldom complains. He is more of an optimist; a gay, pleasant, energetic chap with lots of wit. The kind of a fellow who thinks of work and study as more of a pleasure than a drudgery. His formula is simple.— he studies to gain knowledge, and does not waste time and energy worrying and grumbling instead of actually studying.

Before long it became apparent that the Hospital offered more attractions than just clinical material to "Bill." Before we really became aware of what was happening, we returned this year to meet the "Missus." Diabetic diets should offer "Bill" no worry now.

Let us look closer into the crystal ball and see a chap with a keen sense of humor, and a whole-hearted chuckle. Earnest in his work, and an indefatigable worker, "Bill" was one of the chosen few in our class to become a Junior Interne across the street.

While there, "Bill" distinguished himself in every service and especially in bronchoscopy. Temple Lniversity and the medical profession will hear more from Wheeler and Company in the future.

Swiior*

iltmior Class ^tstorg OU can fool some of the people some of the time, and you can fool some

of the people some of the time, but you can't fool—yet 'tis clone, my lad, 'tis done! For nearly three years now, a group of self-styled

medical students has remained intact as the Class of '33, and believe it or not, no one has "wised u p " to the masquerade—not even our beloved dean. You may wonder how it is done, 'cause wondering is one of the oldest and easiest of pastimes, and even you, gentle reader, have probably wondered a time or two in this era of so-called "depression." The formula we use is very simple : it would have to be, of course, for both us to use and you to understand. Still we are coming along, moulding as we go into worthy exponents of the Aesculapian art .

Now there is an old adage which reads : "it takes all kinds of people to make a world." A squint at the opposite snapshot, a hasty rollcall, and a few choice members of the faculty thrown in will surely substantiate our claim to fame. From the day we stormed the portals of the pre-Volstead coliseum at 18th and Buttonwood, in the fall of '29, until the present spring of '32, when we are elevated to class by "Alopecius" at Broad and Ontario, we have lived happily in our own little world. When we were freshmen we worried and studied and worried; when we became sophomores we studied and worried and studied; and now that we arc juniors—er uh, we studv and study and study—the night before. They say our worries have jus t begun, but there must be some mistake; we used up our share long ago. For two years we were tried and tested by the most critical j u ry ever empaneled, the four Norsemen of the epoch-o-lisp (Roxby, Hiekey, Fanz, and Saylor) , and in the final analysis found NOT GUILTY—of studying. 'Tis said we are "cocky"; well, why not? Do we not have the very best school in the universe, and professors who are the "last word" in defrauding the undertaker? There is Dr. Babcock, the one and only, who illustrates his cherished lectures with a scries of films that will ever be dear to the heart of his students; and Blue-Mondav with "Burnie," ladies and gentlemen, and all the lads, who make life worth while and death the only way out. The most conscientious is Arnold who says, "Practice what you preach"—yet he labors not ; and "A good cigar is oft better than a pair of forceps"—yet he smokes not. The master mind is Winkelman ; he talks slowly, emphasizes clearly, smiles nonchalantly, and yet he is a veritable bundle of nerves. The youngest is Mills; it is hard to conceive of a nice warm bottle of milk growing cold "not because the baby can't eat, but because the baby won't eat." Big chief Beckley does heap-much-powwow, probably because he is our medicine man. This chap Wright seems

Two hundred nineteen

rather solid and well built on the street but there is always something skin-ny about him in the class room. For a red-hot evening go out with Moore; he sure knows his joints. Ridpath is the best lecturer we have, in spite of the fact that he is usually down in the mouth about something. The prince of ethics is Hammond; imagine being well composed, immaculate, and a Gynecologist at the same time. Did you ever hear Thomas tell the story of the cream bottle, or the chap who went to a masquerade ball as a fire alarm? And there are many others whom we would like to introduce here, but life is short and time is fleeting, so we must close, with Hibshman bringing up the rear end as usual, and never forgetting the cosmetic effect. Let it suffice that we salute them here jus t as we salute them in the classroom, with a loud hooray—in the '33 way!

And now, gentle reader, the philosopher must come into his own. I t is wholesome to look back upon those things that we have done which have proved a benefit, and it is helpful to meditate upon those things wThich have been a detriment. Although we may wish for the moment that the same faculty which enables us to review the past could also be employed to change it, we know, on second thought, that such a wish would be unfair even to ourselves. We cannot change the past so we are endowed with the power of retrospection that we ma}7 improve the future.

•oplfnmnr? Class If tstanj ' / T ^ ^ 11 hj magic paintbrush of late Indian summer had scarcely begun to tint \z \j ^ l e v e r d a n t scenery of nearby Fairmount Park writh the mellow hues of ^• •^ Autumn, when a throng of happy, enthusiastic, ambitious students of

the Aesculapian a r t gathered before the doors of our beloved School to shake hands, renew old friendships, narra te summer experiences, and most of all, to discuss the adventures awaiting them during the coming academic year. The members of the Second Year Class were happy indeed in the fulfillment of one par t of their ambitions, and eager to resume their studies. After a few days of readjustment to the scholastic routine they were once again conscientiously delving into the inner recesses of medical science; zealously ferreting out information and earnestly making the new found knowledge an integral par t of their beings.

Wise, kindly, interested teachers guided our feet on the difficult path of learning. At the first session of the year we met Dr. Livingston who, although new to us, soon won our sincere esteem and respect. In the laboratory, Dr. Larson initiated us into the mysteries of the apothecary's ar t . That same afternoon we enjoyed the great privilege of renewing relations with our old counsellor and friend, Dr. Roxby, who, in connivance with his arch accomplice, Dr. Katz, was destined to direct our otherwise aimless wanderings down steep descending t racts , across contralateral highways and over bumpy colliculi. Tha t acme of the chemic art , Dr. Saylor, greeted us again with the warm, quiet smile so familiar to all of us who had already learned to revere him. Dr. Fanz, whom we had always associated with our playful little friends the bacteria, astounded us with his versatility, inaugurating a new routine bv teaching the Sophomores one day the unfathomable mysteries of parasite life and the next day the special pathology of some organ ; he would climax this rare performance with a revealing dissertation in the realms of General Pathology. We met Dr. Hart ley, that gentlewoman who seemed inbued with the noble purpose of introducing us to the nooks and crannies of the Quaker City ; in minor surgery Dr. Emich delightfully surprised us with the glad news that in his course, at least, all quizzes would be announced. Gladly would we wade through senile gangrenes, cobra bites, dum-dum wounds and healings by 'steenth intention for such a man! Ear ly the next week we convened with that patr iarch of Temple Medical, Dr. Hiekey, whom we were to come to know more than had been our privilege the previous year. As an aid in orienting ourselves he suggested we solve the age old problem of Spinal Shock, a minor assignment which we promptly and nonchalantly filled, despite someone's insinuating reference to the old saying "Fools rush in where angels fear to t read!" To cap the week we listened intently while the modulated tones of Dr. Kay extolled the wonders of physicial diagnosis.

Very soon the routine of scholarly life claimed us, but under the guidance of able, loyal, disinterested and efficient class leaders we took time to consider several matters of importance. Before the Christmas holidays we tendered the Freshman class a reception, the first Sophomore-Freshman dance ever held in Mitten Hall. The event was an unqualified success, great credit being due the committee that so conscientiously discharged its duties. Several members of the faculty, including our esteemed Dean, Dr. William N. Parkinson, honored us with their presence. Our class was well represented at the other social events of the season. The year progressed rapidly; under the watchful care of the Chemistry Department we walked many a hall length; by dint of great will power (?) we refrained from accepting Dr. Bradley's kind offer to allow us the privilege of imbibing liberal samples of the nux vomica-gentian-hydrochloric acid mixture we ourselves had so innocently prescribed; by reason of that same renowned will power we also refrained from inhaling deeply while inspecting the sludge tanks at the sewage disposal plant. Memories of our second year crowd together in swift moving kaleidoscopic views ; the never to be forgotten moment when first we paced the hospital corridor with measured tread of distinguished surgeon, and the awe-inspiring gleam of protruding stethoscope; that hysterically uproarious moment in Physiology class when Dr. Hiekey in his own inimitable manner related the astounding biography of the newborn baby who, on a snowy, wintry day, flagged the train . . . We grappled with foetuses for the possession of elusive sections of the body buried in a foot of icy preservative solution ; we strove valiantly to bathe our circulation machines as sparingly as possible; under the able guidance of Dr. Lathrop we composed accurate, concise narrations of the phenomena noted. One memory we would rather not retain is that of the first surprise examination in Pathology; certainly Drs. Fanz and Gault would have been perfectly justified in making a diagnosis of general cerebral aplasia.

As the scholastic year drew to a close our class, although slightly haggard and weakened by two years of unannounced examinations, rallied before the finals, firmly determined to maintain ever high the standard of Nineteen Thirty-four, first class privileged to study the entire medical course at the new and glorious Temple Lniversity School of Medicine.

With a firm and ample base;

And ascending and secure

Shall tomorrow find its place.'1''

— H E N R Y WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW.

S ONE year passes into the next, and with the passing the cycle of learning is resumed—so in the school of medicine a new class appears to take the place of the graduating one. Again a group of aspiring

scholars, fresh from the colleges of the various par ts of the nation take to their books; this time with a deeper and more sincere purpose—the desire to learn to become physicians.

Overwhelmed by the magnitude of the task before them, the members of the Freshmen Class very promptly and anxiously awaited the lecture of the first morning—and drank deep of the advice of one who seemed to appreciate the feelings of the newcomers. Their unscarred medical minds were fertile soil for such guiding principles as "selfishness and intolerance are the two besetting sins of humanity" ; "temper everything with reason."

Before many days had passed, these potential doctors had taken a grasp on their new life and made a genuine effort to follow the regulations of the new fraternity—Medicine. Readjustments were made, ideals reconstructed, and gradually the why and wherefore became apparent as schedules became routine, and the class became acclimated to its new environment, the rumored horrors of the Medical School were over-shadowed by an intensive search for the t ruth which would set free the minds held in subjection by ignorance.

The first year was spent in that darkness which characterizes the introduction to any new field. And yet, before we enter our second year, the clouds are already beginning to disperse and the welcoming rays of a guiding light are clearly visible. I t is our fondest hope tha t these long hours of our early medical career will serve to strengthen the foundation "against that day when we are called to the bed side" in the deepest expression of the ar t of Healing—compassion.

OI1TJ> lahntrk ^urrjtral §>nri£ty *JtUST as the generations of Temple medical students have sat at the feet of ,___/ W. Wayne Babcock and William A. Steel in surgery, so have these same generations coveted the name and the traditions of the Babcock Surgical Societv. This organization is one of the oldest in the school, having had its inception in 1905, back in the cradle days of the institution. With each new year its record of activities is enthusiastically added to by its new members. Uniquely enough there seems to be a permanent quality about the fellowship kindled in this group. The annual banquet of the society has all the appearance of an alumni homecoming affair.

In the autumn we had the pleasure of hearing Dr. James W. Kennedy of the Joseph Price Memorial Hospital discuss "The Peritonitic Abdomen" in his own most eloquent and forceful style. I t was a great evening both scientifically and socially, for our own dependable Dr. Enhcli had arranged for food to be served in the cafeteria at the close of the meeting. Another instructive meeting was jointly with the Mills Pediatric Society in February, at which time Dr. Miiller, professor of surgery at the ln ivers i ty of Pennsylvania, presented "Emergency Surgery in Pediatrics" with a discussion by Dr. Babcock.

It is with regret that we have missed the kindly guidance of Dr. Steel who has been ill much of this year, and we are happy to see him about again.

©It? 1J_ Irnnkn* ifttlh? fkfttatrtr §>nri£tg •_7jf'T W A S the night of November 18, 1916, that a small g roup of Temple medical s tudents ^Jj assembled in the Library of the Professional Schools at Eighteenth and Buttonwood

Streets, to organize a society whose pr ime purpose was to foster and nourish a desire for more knowledge in the field of pediatr ics than was offered by the ord inary medical school curriculum. The name " H . Brooker Mills Pedia t r ic Society"' was chosen and Dr . Mills was unanimously elected Honora ry President . The constitution then drawn up limited membership to fifty and provided for the calling of monthly meetings.

The policy adopted by the society this year gives us the distinct privilege of being one of the largest clinical societies at Temple Medical School. This plan represents a distinct depa r tu re from the conservatism of previous years and provides for unlimited representat ion from each of the four classes. This liberal p rogramme makes possible active membership from Senior and Jun io r classes and associate membership from Sophomore and Freshman classes.

Our Scientific meeting of December 1931, which reflects the r ap id str ides the society has made in the present , was marked by the largest a t tendance in the history of the society and was honored by an unparal leled a r ray of brilliant speakers and teachers, noteworthy among whom were Doctors Twitmeyer, Bochroch, Bolton, F a y , F o r d and Winkleman.

This calibre of p rogramme has been made possible by the un t i r ing efforts and willingness of Doctor H . Brooker Mills and Doctor Samuel Goldberg and it is more than gra t i fy ing to voice the unanimous apprecia t ion of the members. I t is our sincere hope that future members cherish the pleasant associations and privileges offered by the society.

&hv lftrki>y pigBtninijtral §>nrii>tg _TifN T H E mid-winter of 1922 a group of Sophomores gathered in the ^J Physiology Laboratory at 18th and Buttonwood Streets and founded a society for undergraduates, the objects in view being the advancement of knowledge in applied Physiology and the gaining of experience in the presentation of papers, and reporting the results of original study and observation. The founders deemed it appropriate to name the organization in honor of the Professor of Physiology.

Gathering momentum in the ensuing years from the impetus of its origin, the Society has steadily grown.

Many of the meetings are conducted as symposia upon general clinical topics, especially those which lend themselves to experimental study by the undergraduates. The subjects are usually suggested by a guest speaker who criticizes, amplifies and applies the student's contributions, in relation to definite clinical problems.

Included among the representative men in their various fields who have thus addressed the Society are : Drs. William E. Hughes, Henry L. Bockus, W. Wayne Babcock, James W. Kennedy, George Morris Piersol, Ar thur C. Morgan, John B. Carnett and A .A. Stevens.

A plan was initiated in 1929 whereby most of the income of the Society, accruing principally from membership dues, is so invested tha t in time the income will finance a Research Fellowship in Physiology. This will be administered under the combined authority of the Dean of the School of Medicine; the officers of the Society and the head of the Department of Physiology.

®fo Btortertann Hftfttnrartj iH^tral §>nri£ty ^ T t i E Robertson Honorary Society, established in 192T under the guidance ^»*/ of William Egbert Robertson, M.D., F.A.C.P., its honorary president, holds an enviable position in the life of the Temple University Medical School. The membership of the society is limited to twenty seniors and ten juniors, who have the highest scholastic rating in their respective classes and are recommended by the dean.

The purposes and aims of the society are admirably reflected in its "guardian angel": Dr. Robertson.

Dr. Robertson enjoys an enviable position as a teacher and diagnostician. To attain and maintain this desirable position in a community demands not only the training and knowledge acquired in the class room, at the bedside, in the clinics, and in the quiet seclusion of the study, but also the magic influence of an alert and cheerful presence and an unfailing contagious enthusiasm that a t t rac ts and holds the attention of the students and gains the unbounded confidence of the patient.

Here is a man, who in his keen search for the t ruth, is willing to hazard his personal comfort, to take time from his hours of rest and ease, for the sake of research and investigation. He has instilled this same indefatigable desire for knowledge into all with whom he has come into contact and the Robertson Society, as a small integral unit in the universal associations of this great man, acknowledges a debt which it shall t ry to pay by following in the footsteps of its founder.

3lt£ Utttk^ltttau fattriilmtfral SwtFlg ^ T ^ H E mode of living in the past half century has undergone a remarkable ^**/ change. The human race has metamorphosed from a rural people to a race of city dwellers.

The human being has always needed thousands of years to adapt himself to anv great change in his environment. We, in less than a hundred years, have tried to force on ourselves a metamorphosis that should have taken millenniums. Our nervous systems have paid the price of our too rapid advancement.

Men of vision, like Dr. Spiller and the late Drs. Mills and Dercum, realized that the field of Neurology in medicine was entirely inadequate to cope with the old problems already existing, and certainly not with the new ones daily arising. They set about to lift this field of medicine from the shadows of obscurity to the place which it should rightfully own. They accomplished their purpose, and have now left it to the newer generation to carry on where they left off.

I t was these thoughts that inspired several members of the Class of 1930 to form the Winkelman Neurological Society. Its purpose was to further the interests of the students in Neurology, and the closely allied subjects of Neurosurgery and Psychiatry. Under the able guidance of our pat ron, Dr. Winkelman, Professor of Neurology, and Drs. Fay and Bochroch, Professors of Neurosurgery and Psychiatry, respectively, the society has done exceptionally well.

Men of national and international repute have been secured to speak at the meetings. Not one who was present will forget the memorable addresses of Drs. De Schweinitz, Schamberg, Brill and Strecker.

In saying au revoir we wish the Society continued success.

CH E school year of 1931 was marked by a greater interest in dermatology than ever before exhibited by the students of Temple University. In order

to stimulate an interest in the subject of which the average physician knows very little, a group of students organized the Wright Dermatologcal Society.

This renaissance was headed by our very popular professor of Dermatology, Dr. Carrol Spaulding Wright. Dr. Wright was born in 1895; graduated from the University of Michigan in 1919. He is a member of the American Dermatological Society, and was former associate professor of Dermatology and Syphilology at the Graduate School of the University of Pennsylvania.

The Society, at its first meeting, presented to the student body the renowned Dr. J . Frank Schamberg, as the guest speaker. He kept the audience enthralled as he took them, by means of lantern slides, through the ancient European courts ravaged with smallpox.

The Society planned many such meetings, at which the leading dermatological minds of the country rendered talks of interest in the field of Dermatology.

The crowning success of the Society's activities came when Dr. Udo J . Wile, of the School of Medicine, University of Michigan, came all the way east to deliver a paper on "The Cutaneous Manifestations of Systemic Diseases."

Ullje (Unttlj Abmtt Hates Some Original and Aboriginal Observations From

The Department of Obstetrics

EAVEN lies about us in our infancy"—Words worth repeating— but heaven knows, it was never intended that everybody else should lie about us, even in our infancy. Hence, we have decided to "tell

the truth and shame the devil"—assuming, of course, that we now know who the devil, he is, like Santa Claus, jus t the father!

Too often, as here suggested, infancy has been considered onlv in fancy— not so as you can see, you know! But not so, as you can see, for babies are, and always have been. Whether they always will be, is another question—we might say, a matter of speculation, which, of course, is jus t now involved in very uncertain securities, frozen assets and cold feet!

There may be other conceptions—or contraceptions—of life, calling for consideration, but we have long felt that the one subject whose crying demand for attention is heard night and day, above all the damning din of busting banks and rasping radios, is the new born babe!

Individually or collectively, he is always capable of awakening interest and sympathy—as well as anything else tha t happens to be asleep about the house. We assure you, therefore, Mr. Editor, that it is with no thought of depositing an unwelcome foundling upon the back doorstep of the SKULL'S

house of mirth, tha t the Obstetric Department yields to your invitation to contribute "something on babies."

Almost anything can be on babies, but often they are born with nothing but a veil!—A close caul, you say ! But even this doesn't avail to hide their "native modesty," if any, when they grow up.

I t might be feared that a scientific dissertation on babies will be dry, but it won't, very long—nothing ever is!

Remembering that figures don't always lie, we shall labor to confine ourselves to fads, facts and fancies—without number. For instance, a hasty review of our last 'steen thousand cases, reveals the long suspected fact that the great majority of babies are born either before or after midnight. This is probablv no fault of the babies ! Our records also show that more babies are born in the light of the moon, than in the dark of the moon. This is intended as no reflection on the moori! I t has enough.

As to sex, it is interesting to note—what many of your readers have no doubt already observed—that in any wholesale assignment of babies, the asort-ment of sexes is fairly satisfactory, but in the retail distribution, there is frequent disappointment and complaint.

The final summing up of our statistics did actually show a few more males

Two hundred sixty-three

than females. I t is quite probable, we think, that the percentage of boys would have been even higher if there had not been so many girls!

As to the relation of sex to seasons, our records prove beyond a doubt, tha t there are more males born between April and October, than between December and April. And more females born through the week', than over the meek-end. This, of course, would explain why thev were formerly called the "weaker sex"!

Another curious observation in this connection was that practically all the babies known to have been born in the "dark of the moon," when carefully observed under certain more or less saline and salubrious conditions, were found to cry out vigorously, twice, and sometimes three times a day, at night—and for as much as two hours at a time—without defalcation or stay of execution. In consulting the literature on the subject, we find that this same phenomenon has been noted by a number of older writers, some of whom have thought that it was due wholly to "original sin," while others have tried to explain it on the basis of the "nebular hypothesis"—the throwing off of gas, you know. While we do not feel that we have yet enough data to conclusively disprove either of these older views, still we are inclined at present, to believe that this peculiar manifestation is probably due to some, as yet poorly understood relationship between moonshine, and Fletcher's Castoria. As you all know, it has long been an accepted fact that babies cry for the latter, and now that we have shown that they also cry when there is no moonshine, it would seem, we think, to justify the above conclusion.

While this paper is necessarily scientific, we have tried not to lose sight of the practical. For that reason, in something like eleventeen hundred of our cases, we carefully extracted the cube root of each placenta, and had all the cords untwisted and recorded. Now, anyone at all familiar with the twelve signs of the Zodiac will at once recognize the immense practical value of this knowledge in helping the family physician to cure colic, or to understand the "final perseverance of the saints." We shall only take time to mention two or th/'ee of our findings.

A point of special interest in the placentas, was the peculiar hieroglyphic-like markings tha t were frequently seen on the uterine surface. These, when properly worked out and deciphered, would appear to indicate that the month of March will be unusually stormy, and that the transit of Venus will be followed by a large spell of mercurial weather. As to the twists in the cords, our observations confirm those of Auvard, Schauta, Parvin and others, tha t in at least 8T per cent, of all cases, the spiral runs from right to left. The earlier authorities, however, left the most important p a r t of this whole matter unsettled, for they were not at all united in their views as to why the twists were toward the left. Those of you who specialize in pediatrics and other childish things, will, of course, realize how very important it is, to have this question settled. So we hope we may be forgiven by the shades of the great authorities just quoted, when we modestly venture the opinion—based, of

Two hundred sixty-four

course, on our own original observations—that the very high percentage of cases of sinistrotorsion is undoubtedly due to the fact that there are so few cases of dextrotorsion!

Being all wrapped up in this navel-string work has brought out another important fact which has long been known, but which has perhaps not been as fully appreciated by the profession at large as it should be, especially in its relations to the cost of high living, and low birth control. We refer, of course, to the number of knots in the funis of the firstborn, as a numerical indicator of the future productivity of one or both parents.

Now we confess that from the standpoint of the overworked general practitioner, calculating knots in the navel strings is not calculated to fill one with that old-time spirit that used to prevail in the lying-in room; but what is, for that matter, in these arid days of repression ! But after all, what's the doctor good for anyway, in a confinement case, but to be able, through this, or some other equally reliable method, to help his patient to know exactly what is coming to her, and to graciously collect exactly what is coming to him? ""Blest be the tie that binds"—especially when it is not without knots!

"Maternal impressions,'> have so long impressed so impressively, that any further study of this subject would have been a work of supererrogation for which the Obstetric Department is not yet mechanically equipped.

We did, however, make some important observations on the opposite side of the house. This is a new field, and full of daffy-dils and difficulties, as any one will know who has ever undertaken to accurately observe and classify the nocturnal and other questionable habits of the "genus homo, pater familias." Duodenal drainage, psychoanalysis, and other well known laboratory methods have long been of inestimable value in determining what a man is, xcas or will be, but we have had a theory that the atavistic and paternal proclivities of his baby might be made to reveal something, also. For instance, we found that in practically all babies born numerically late—as the third or fourth in the family—or even the first, when this accident occurred after many years of nonproductivity—that if the index finger of the right hand of the observer was placed suddenly in the open palm of the child, the child's hand would close instantly, and hold on with a Darwinian g rasp!

Now wre may be mistaken, but it would seem to us, that this would permit of but one interpretation, and that is, that the authorized father of such a child, was or zcill be at some time or other, tip a tree!

However, as we have previously suggested, this whole subject of "paternal impressions" may be said to be still in its infancy—though we seriously question whether anything is ever still, in its infancy!

We also made quite a study of the alphabetically vital victuals on which so many babies are now being artificially ripened, but for fear of not being sufficiently misunderstood by the radio-educated laity, we hesitate to broadcast our findings.

Tw'O hundred sixty-five

This much, however, we can safely submit for publication :—The earlier accepted combination of vitamins—C, 0, and D, gave more satisfaction than the I. 0. U. or C. U. later mixtures.

This hastily prepared resume has necessarily omitted much tha t would greatly interest your readers from the standpoint of real practical obstetrics. For instance, one of our research workers is now engaged in tabulating the results of a personal interview with a thousand babies he was fortunate enough to meet in the first week of life—while their minds were yet clear on matters of prenatal history. This work was undertaken for the purpose of settling, once and for all, the long-disputed question of sex origin. We argue—and we think you must admit, quite logically—that if it can be proven by their own voluntary testimony that a sufficiently large number of male children had their maternal cellular origin in the right ovary, for instance, then it must naturally follow that the female babies will be obliged to locate their origin in the left ovary, and there you have i t ! "Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings"! The right ovary produces males, and the left ovary, females. This being true, all any given set of parents would have to do when they want a boy, is to coincide in their wishes, and have a simple little surgical operation on the left ovary; and the next time, if they Avant a girl, ditto, the right ovary. Simplicity itself! You can see at once what possibilities—and abdomens—this would open up, but of course, we arc not yet prepared to publish our findings. We simply mention the matter at this time, in order to claim priori ty for our method of investigation, which we would modestly admit is entirely original.

When it comes to being able to tell the sex of a child before it is born, the laity knows far more about it than we do—as indeed it does about many things medical. We have seen some cases where it would puzzle any doctor to foretell the sex, but have never yet seen a baby born whose sex was not told months before, by some kind friend or neighbor. And the remarkable thing is, how simple and easy it all becomes, if one has the right method.

The laity is not troubled seriously about a scientific explanation of how it does things, while the doctor, of course, always is, and therefore a great deal of valuable working knowledge is going to waste every day, so far as the doctor is concerned, jus t because it doesn't look scientific.

Now we think our researches, perhaps, ,may help your readers to reclaim some of this well-known "popular" knowledge, and put it in shape to be used professionally. For instance, we note that in a large number of our cases it was discovered as early as the sixth month, that the heir-apparent was a boy, from the well-known fact, pointed out many years ago by Dr. Ross, of Belfast ("British Medical Journal ," July, 1891), that a boy always kicks more vigorously on the mother's left side. Ross, of course, had no possible way of explaining this, but now, in the light of our recent investigations, it is plain enough. If boys have their origin in the right ovary, as we have jus t seen, they will naturally kick toward the left, and vis a vie, the girls !

Or, take tha t other method, so long and so successfully used by the laity7

—with which, no doubt, your readers are all perfectly familiar—which consists in allowing a few drops of the prospective mother's breast milk to fall gently into a pint of cold water. If the lacteal descends at once to the bottom of the cup, we all know, of course, that the child is undoubtedly a boy, but if the droplets take kindly to the water, and swim about on the surface, it is just as certainly a girl. For thousands of years (See Aristotle's notes), nobody ever thought of trying to explain this—they couldn't—they simply accepted the facts and let it go at that. But now, the explanation is easy. The left ovary, Ave have shown, produces girls. But the left ovary, owing to the pressure of the constipated bowel on that side, is constantly pushed over in the region of the bladder—nearer the water, you see! I t Avould be the most natural thing in the world, therefore, to conclude that the products of that ovary should take to the water more readily than those of its more inland mate of the opposite side ! Quod erat demonstrandum !

And thus Ave might recite hundreds of similar instances showing what could be done for the great cause of science, and for the restoration of many of the fallen idols of former practice, if we could but find some modern Galahad to lead us in the quest of this Holy Grail of medical truth.

Fame, and fortune, and income tax, await the doctor whose genius will gather up these "broken and dissevered fragments" of a once glorious lay-knowledge, and put them at the disposal of his fellow-practitioners in some such seiwiceable Arolume as "Babcock's Family Album of Surgery," or the "HagcrstoAvn Almanac" !

CH R O N O L O G Y is no t an exci t ing s u b j e c t : it r a re ly " r e a d s like a novel ." Bu t many false s t a tements never Avould have been born , if they had been checked by chronology. As an an t ido te for loose s t a t emen t s ,

chronology is unsurpassed . T h e Celsus Avho wrote On Medicine and the Celsus who wrote The True Word a re often t r e a t e d as if they were the same individual , bu t if their da tes were added, it would a t once become a p p a r e n t t h a t they lived a cen tu ry a p a r t .

Numerous p r epos t e rous e r ro r s would be avoided if curbed by chronology. F o r ins tance , on p a g e 116 of a very p o p u l a r medico-his tor ical work, published by the House of H a r p e r ( 1 9 2 9 ) , the following s to ry o c c u r s :

Within two years after his paper describing his first use of chloroform at childbirth, Simpson was able to report that it had been administered to from 40,000 to 50.000 persons in Edinburgh, both for childbirth and for surgical operation. Simpson established this advance toward the conquest of death and suffering at birth, and. unlike the unfortunate Semmelweis, lived to see the success of his efforts. He was honored locally, he was knighted, and at his death in 1870, the shops of the city closed while the people went to view the enormous procession of those who attended his funeral. In connection with his title of knighthood it is said that Sir Walter Scott wrote to Simpson and suggested as a coat of arms suited to his work on anesthesia at childbirth, "a wee naked bairn" with underneath the motto, "Does your mother know you're out?"

T h i s s to ry , which has amused ( a n d misled) m a n y reader s , is des t royed by chronology. Sir W a l t e r Sco t t , like Goethe, died in 1832. In t h a t yea r , Simpson received his medical degree ; he did not disco\ rer the anes the t ic p rope r t i e s of chloroform unti l 1847, and did no t receive the b a r o n e t c y unt i l 1 8 6 6 : by this time Sco t t had been dead for over a genera t ion , and hence could no t have suggested a mo t to for Simpson 's coa t of a rms . T h e book from which we ha\ re quoted is a mass of mis takes , bu t even scholar ly volumes frequent ly require chronologic cont ro l .

L e t us i l lus t ra te with an example. T h e subject of the development of our knowledge of goi ter , s t r e t ch ing out across the centur ies , is exceedingly complicated. In order to clarify the problem, we have p r e p a r e d the following Goiter Chronology:

G O I T E R C H R O N O L O G Y PREHISTORIC ERA.—Burnt sponges and seaweed ashes (iodides) used by Chinese for goiter.

—Hindu incantations against goiter. ROMAN ERA.—Caesar speaks of big neck among the Gauls as one of their characteristics.

marvels at goiter in the Alps?" —Celsus describes the technique for the removal of bronchocele (goiter). —Pliny says goiter is caused by impurities in water: "Only men and swine are

subject to swellings in the throat, which are mostly caused by the noxious quality of the water they drink."

—Vague illusions to the thyroid in Galen (De voce). MIDDLE AGES.—Reference of Paulus Aegineta to bronchocele (no increase of knoAvledge

of thyroid diseases until the Renaissance). 16TH CENTURY.—Paracelsus is the first to establish relationship betAveen cretinism and

endemic goiter. —Vesalius describes the thyroid (Fabrica, 1543).

1656—Thomas Wharton names the thyroid and giA'es the first satisfactory description of its anatomy (Adenographia).

1769—T. Prosser's "An account and method of cure of the bronchocele, or Derby neck." 1776—Haller classifies thyroid, thymus and spleen as glands Avithout ducts, pouring a

special fluid into the blood. 1786—Caleb Hillier Parry writes the original account of exophthalmic goiter (Parry's

disease). 1792—Essay on Goiter and Cretinism, by Francois-Emmanuel Fodere (1764-1835). 1800—Publication of Benjamin Smith Barton's "Memoir concerning the disease of

goiter, as it prevails in different parts of North America" (published by the author).

—Publication of Fodere's Treatise on Goiter and Cretinism. 1802—Giuseppe Flajani describes the goiter and cardiac palpitation of two cases of

bronchocele or gozzo (Flajani's disease). 1811—Bernard Courtois experiments in extracting alkali from seaweed, and discovers

iodine. 1820—Jean Francois Coindet, reasoning that iodine is the active constituent of burnt

sponge (Fyfe had isolated iodine from sponge) introduces it as a remedy for goiter.

1822—Caleb Hillier Parry, of Bath, dies at the age of sixty-seven. 1835—Robert James Graves describes exophthalmic goiter (Graves' disease). 1836—Astley Cooper's notes on the structure of the thyroid gland in man and animals. 1840—Carl Adolph Basedow, of Merseburg, describes exophthalmic goiter (BasedoAv's

disease), calling attention to the three cardinal symptoms: the SAvelling, exophthalmos, and tachycardia (Merseburg triad).

1850—Thomas Blizard Curling's "symmetric swellings of fat tissue at the sides of the neck connected Avith defective cerebral development," is the first reference to the condition later knoAvn as myxedema.

1853—Robert James Graves, of Dublin, dies at the age of fifty-seven. 1854—Carl Adolph Basedow dies at the age of fifty-five. 1856—Moritz Schiff removes the thyroid of various animals (first thyroidectomies). 1863—Charcot describes the fourth cardinal symptom of exophthalmic goiter, the tremor. 1873—William Withey Gull, of Colchester, England, describes the condition later known

as myxedema. ("On a cretinoid state supervening in adult life in Avomen.") 1874—P. H. Watson is the first to excise the thyroid for exophthalmic goiter. 1878—W. M. Ord introduces the term myxedema ("OIL myxedema, a term proposed to

be applied to the cretinoid affected occasionally observed in middle-aged Avomen"). 1883—J. L. Reverdin and Theodor Kocher treat exophthalmic goiter by total thyroid

ectomy and diseoA^er the thyroid to be a vital organ. Publication of Kocher's Cachexia Thyropriva.

1891—George R. Murray begins to use hypodermic injections of thyroid gland in the treatment of hypothyroidism. "The symptoms of the disease having thus been traced to loss of the thyroid gland, the next ad\Tance Avas in the direction of supplying the deficiency. Schiff had already shoAvn that the usual fatal result of thyroidectomy in the dog could be averted by a preliminary transplantation of another thyroid gland into the abdomen of the animal, and von Eiselsberg proved that the same result could be obtained in the cat, provided the graft was successful. Quite independently, 1890, thyroid grafting Avas suggested by Sir Victor Horsley as a method of arresting the disease in man. This suggestion Avas acted upon by several surgeons, especially by Bettencourt and Serrano, who noticed that in their case the operation Avas immediately followed by improvement, which they attributed to absorption of the juice of the transplanted thyroid gland. This observation appeared to me to be extremely important, as it indicated that the thyroid gland carried on its function b}r means of an internal secretion. -I, therefore, concluded that if this Avas the case the regular use of the secretion, obtained in the form of an extract of the gland, would remove the symptoms of myxedema, and suggested this line of treatment at a meeting of the Northumberland and Durham Medical Society in February, 1891. In order to test this a glycerin extract of the sheep's thyroid gland Avas prepared, and injected at intervals beneath the skin so as to ensure its absolution by the lymphatics in the same manner as the normal secretion is conveyed into the circulation from the healthy gland. The symptoms of myxedema in the first case I treated in this manner rapidly disappeared, thus proving that the thyroid gland is a true internal secretory gland, and that the thyroid extract is a specific remedy for myxedema. The following year it was shoAvn by HoAvitz, of Copenhagen, and by Dr. Hector Mackenzie and Dr. E. L. Fox, in England, that the same results could be obtained by the simple method of giving thyroid extract or the raw gland itself by the mouth."

1893—Friedrich Muller makes first metabolic studies on exophthalmic goiter patients.

1895—Eugen Bauman discovers that iodine is a normal constituent of the thyroid gland. —Magnus-Levy demonstrates that metabolism is increased in exophthalmic goiter

and decreased in myxedema. —George Dock investigates goiter in Michigan. —Edward Lyman Munson reports the goiter situation among the Indians.

1896—William SteAvart Halsted SIIOAVS in his experimental study of the thyroid of dogs, that if the gland is removed before pregnancy or during its early stages, and rigid precautions are taken to prevent absorption of iodine, the pups at birth will have enlarged thyroids (hyperplasia will not result if available iodine is present).

—Moritz Schiff (of Frankfort, for twenty years professor at Geneva) dies at the age of seventy-three.

1897—Referring to the thyroid treatment of cretinism, William Osier Avrites: "Not the magic wand of Prospero or the brave kiss of the daughter of Hippocrates ever effected such a change as that which we are now enabled to make in these unfortunate victims, doomed heretofore to live in hopeless imbecility, an unspeakable affliction to their parents and relatives."

—Jesse F. McClendon (born Lanette, Ala., 1880; Ph.D., UniA^ersity of Pennsyhrania, 1906; professor of physiological chemistry, University of Minnesota, 1920) demonstrates that the incidence of goiter is high Avhere the iodine content of the water is IOAV.

1923—H. K. Gushing Laboratory of Experimental Medicine of Western Reserve University, publishes Studies on the Prevention of Simple Goiter, with contributions by David Marine, C. H. Lenhart, and 0. P. Kimball. "In these endemic goiter districts, if every woman Avould keep her thyroid saturated with iodine during every pregnancy, she Avould not develop goiter, nor Avould there be any tendency tOAvard goiter formation in the thyroid of her child. This Avould save tAvo of the goiter periods in the life of any individual. Then if every girl Avould keep her thyroid saturated with iodine during adolescence, none Avould deArelop goiter."

N E of the most curious as Avell as most interesting observations at the Bronchoscopic Clinic is that over 8 0 % of the foreign body cases are the result of prevent

able accidents. In the group of cases of stricture of the esophagus due to swallowing lye by children, about 100% of the cases are the result of preventable accidents also. The important point in this observation on etiology is, of course, the closely related matter of prophylaxis. In these days Avhen preventive medicine is placed in the front rank as an objective of our efforts, it seems exceedingly important to call attention to Avhat may be done in the Avay of preArention of the class of accidents referred to. Babies Avithout molars with Avhich to cheAv peanuts are constantly being brought to the Clinic desperately ill from peanut kernels in the bronchi. No child under six years of age should be alloAved to touch peanuts or any kind of nut candy or nut cake. I t should go without saying that when a little baby five or six Aveeks old is brought in with a safety-pin in the esophagus Ave have obAdously an example of carelessness, because the child could not Avalk to get the safety-pin ; someone must have left it Avithin his reach. Parents Avho put pins, safety-pins, hair-pins, coins, or any other inedible objects in the mouth in the presence of a child are unconsciously teaching that child hoAv to get foreign bodies in the air and food passages.

Let us all bend every effort to teach the laity never to put a small inedible substance into the mouth. Of the foods, nut candies, nut cakes, and nut kernels should neArer be giAren to children under six years of age. Many other phases of this subject of prophylaxis will occur to anyone who gives any thought to it.

r, Ifutwir HE Letters Printed Below Were Sent To Me To Decipher By The

Dead Letter Office In Washington. They Were Written in Aramaic, A Tongue With Which I Became Familiar In My Youth.

Strangely Enough, Some Of The Letters Were Addressed To The Faculty And It Occurred To Me That

They Might Add Something Of Interest And Humor To The SKULL.

John, OF Boy, OV Boy, OV Boy:

I want to thank ya, for the splendid preparation in " p a t h " (Avhich a feAV of the clinicians tried to ball up for me, but didn't succeed) you gave me. I didn't exactly appreciate at the time the good you were doing me, but I'm a game guy, and when I'm wrong I admit it, so there you are.

I also want to tell ya, that I failed, jus t like all the others failed, to ever guess the date of one of your unannounced exams, God . . . Bless Them. I'll never forget the first time you announced that the "evens" Avould go upstairs and the "odds" Avould remain downstairs. I t was the closest I ever came to rectal incontinence in my life. But the proof of the puddin' is in the eatin', and here I am a Senior, and I still remember that Achorion Schoenlenii causes Favus . . . and I didn't learn it in Dermatology, either.

BetAveen you and me, John, don't you think some of those neAv Kidney Classifications are the essence of equine efftuve?

Yours, J O E SENIOR.

"Jack," you old Shenandoah Fireater:

I wish I 'd have paid more attention to your lectures . . . and taken your warning: "We pass this way but once" . . . but I didn't, and I'm sorry. But I do want to hand you the floral wreath for some clinical tips you handed me, that helped me pass Dr. Coombs' exam last year. You only gave me 75, and at the time I found it hard to forgive you, because M. K. and T. S. who admitted to me their inferiority in anatomy, made higher grades. But marks never made the doctor, and all is "forgave" and forgot.

And John . . . I'll never forget the one about the young lady with the ozena who Avas engaged to the young man with anosmia.

Yours,

J O E SENIOR.

8r. iflfolmtt A. Buylat "Mel," oV kid:

I'll never forget the way I used to gloat over my Penn and Jeff friends, jus t because I had you to teach me. They had to learn a million formulae, of which they don't remember a one right now. They don't remember half the practical stuff I do, and they studied and worried over their " P " Chemistry a great deal more than I did. I missed you an "ai tch" of a lot when you decided to do a swan dive from Dr. Tunis ' lizzie, and I never had the intestinal fortitude to tell you, so here it is.

And I always used to make out punk in the practicals until I discoA^ered their permutations and combinations. Good Luck!

Yours,

J O E SENIOR.

I r . Aifr^fc 3E. HiirittgBtxm "Al":

I thought I 'd never forgive you for those reports I had to do. Many a good pinochle game I missed recopying tracings . . . and many a Friday afternoon I came home late for dinner, to see if you could resuscitate that dog, tha t decided to stop breathin' jus t because you were demonstrating before the class. Guess I Avas jus t an "ornery" cuss. Seein' anyone get into trouble never gaA e me any kick, but seein' someone get out of trouble always did giAre me a big thrill . . . and in justice to you, you gaA'e me one of the biggest thrills of my life, AAThen I found I didn't have to take tha t "re-ex" in Pharmacology.

Guess I must have been one of them thar Seniors, that would haA e been a Junior, if you had been as hard-hearted as you know you couldn't be.

Yours,

J O E SENIOR.

I'll still bite, J . Garret t , what does originate the heart beat? I'll neA er forget those mechanical hearts Ave used, to dcmonstate the varia

tions in s}7stolic, diastolic and pulse pressures resulting from the different heart lesions. I ahways forgot to pour Avater into the heart, and I don't have to tell you what happens when those blamed things empty. But, much as I used to "bless" those contraptions, I must admit they taught me a good bit about the effects of heart disease on the circulation.

And I always thank my guardian angel for taking you and Dr. Lathrop to another pa r t of the " lab," when a frog my par tner was t rying to pith got loose and jumped all over my muscle fatigue tracing tha t had jus t taken me three hours to get right.

So long. J O E SENIOR.

"Wayne":

I'll bet if all the adrenalin, those Monday and Tuesday morning quizzes caused to be secreted had ever been collected from the urines of our class, there would be enough to blow up City Hall or somethin'. I always used to p ray you'd call on the other half of the class, or else that you Avouldn't call on me first, so I could read up a Avee bit before being called on.

I didn't exactly thank you then, for all the week-ends I had to stay in and "bone" Surgery, but I remembered you in my prayers, the night I took my intemeship exam and knocked all the surgery question for a loop. . . . And spinal anaesthesia (indications and contra-indications) was about half the exam.

Toodle-oo. J O E SENIOR.

I r . William iEgfort ykvfotxtmn Well, "Bill":

I often used to sit and Avonder how one man could knoAv so much. The ease and nonchalance with which you used to ratt le off the names of the men who had done a part icular bit of research, filled me with awe (especially after, being a particularly mean cuss, I had checked up on you) . Sometimes I Avas lost in a maze of Ph's, urea nitrogen concentrations and Avhat-nots, but I always realized that the fault lay not in the broadcasting, but in the reception.

I Avon't forget that the pulmonary area is "the field of auscultatory romance."

Bye-bye. J O E SENIOR.

Hello, Herb (or is it Herby, Harry, Herman) :

My baby's nursing right now thanks to the principles you instilled into me. I had to hit his mother over the head with a hammer, or Avas it a mallet, but nursing he is, and he weighs sixty-four ounces, and only nine months old. He's started a little head banging episode, just to be playful. I guess I'll have to get the old hammer again. I told his mother only a short time ago (four months), to s tar t feeding him fruit juices.

You taught us all there was to know about babies, but how about the mothers, God bless them and their precious little ones. The only maternal remedy I know is Ichthyol for mumps, but you didn't mention a Avord about strychnine (2 grains) or hammers. Well, I'll forgive you this once, but give your new classes a break. So long.

J O E SENIOR.

§r\ William A. ftte*l Well, Bill:

I'm glad to see ya up and about. One of the Juniors Avas telling me they were beginning to miss that chuckle of yours. Ya knoAv you and I have something in common (not a knowledge of surgery either). I like fishin' a heck of a lot, too. If the school weren't so large, and prof and student could get together a little more, perhaps Ave could get together on a little t r ip. I bet you smoke a smelly old pipe (my wife uses stronger words), too. Oh, well, I think you're a swell old egg anyhoAV, eA en if we didn't get a chance to sAvap fish whoppers. Toodle-oo.

J O E SENIOR.

Sr. ifammottfc Dear Frank:

Please forgive me for taking your valuable time, but I am in need of advice. Have had under my care for eleven months a woman of fifty Avho has been suffering from uterine bleeding. Despite careful applications, daily, of silver nitrate to her ulcerated ceiwix, she does not seem to be improving. She is noAv getting morphine sulph, grains v, q 2 hrs., but still complains of insomnia. Shall I change to sodium bromide?

Your course is helping me a lot in practice. Regardless of whose stenog, secretary, governess, or waitress she may be, I always insist on my patient's phone number. The results haAre been as surprising as were your baAvlings-out in Ethics lectures. We didn't deserve them, as a rule.

Yours in the upright profession, J O E SENIOR.

P. S.—Never mind the advice I asked for. The woman suddenly died of pelvic carcinomatosis.

Sr. Ktnaib Dear Jesse:

Out where I'm interning, they still talk about the "toxemia" of pregnancy. My chief says that pre-eclampsia is due to stagnation of the blood in the liver. As a matter of fact, he's done experimental work on pregnant trout and has found in 99 44 /100% of cases autopsied as early as the third week of gestation that the circulation of the portal system was at a complete standstill. His rival, who lives on the other side of town, says eclamptic compulsions are due to plethora. He proves it by quieting all nerA'ous mani-mestations of pregnant rabbits by aspirating tAvelve pints of blood from the abdominal aorta.

Personally, I think your method is hot stuff, and I'll do spinal punctures on eclamptics every time I can get a truck-driver to hold the patient doAvn.

Here's hoping all your troubles are little ones. Yours in complete flexion,

J O E SENIOR.

Sr. Hittkrlmatt Dear Wink:

My youngest son told me about one of his teachers Avho blushed, and it reminded me that I hadn't written you for a long time. I often Avondered if you kept that schoolgirl complexion by frequent examinations of sections of the frontal lobe of some deceased paretic.

Neurology has been of great pleasure to me. WheneArer my Avife has company, I always test the K. J. 's (by accidentally dropping a plate in the guests' laps) to see who should and who should not be invited again. Despite my great knoAvledge, practice hasn't been so good. I always had a hard job remembering which t racts crossed and at what levels.

Yours on a narrow base, J O E SENIOR.

Dear Johnnie: You don't remember me, but I'll never forget you if only for the many

times you made an eA7ening snooze impossible. HOAV could I sleep Avhen your Avhispering made me afraid I might miss a secret? Still, I'm grateful tha t you didn't detail the reasons for your many beliefs. Then, too, you made me realize the dignity of my profession, for now I know tha t eArery injection of antitoxin makes me an Immunologist, every skin test an Allergist, and every local application of metaphen, pardon, I mean mercurophen, makes me a Chemotherapeutist. Boy, ain't that sumpin'!

You'll forgive me for suggesting a line of research. So much progress has been made in concentrating sera, foodstuffs, vitamines, etc., that I'm looking to you and J a y to perfect a method of transferring scientific knoAvledge from professor to student by the intravenous route. Wouldn't it be Avonderful!

I'm dropping in at the White House next month. Any special message 3'ou Avant delivered to the Department of Hygiene?

Yours in atopy, J O E SENIOR.

Sr* KCmtHrlmamt Dear Frank:

Now that I've passed the State Board, I might as well confess. The day Ave Averc supposed to be doing the fragility test, I Avas flirting with one of your technicians—or trying to.

Since every physician must have a hobby, I've taken up Art . My drawings, at the recent exhibition, took prizes away from men who never had a course in Clinical Pathology. I used to go out for detective work, but attendance at your necropsies ruined my ability to smell out the guilty culprits.

You'll be interested to knoAV that I have become popular as a Pathological consultant since I started smoking White Eagles and Avearing a wing collar with a black coat.

Yours in a maze of nephritides classifications, J O E SENIOR.

Dear Max: Sir. * « * lo r fp i r i , I must confess that it Avas you, and you alone Avho brought me to the

" P . G. H . " on Wednesdays in the Junior year. I often Avondered how much more the Mastbaum Avould have taken in if it hadn't been for your splendid clinics. Although on occasions you "weren't prepared to make a diagnosis," I often Avondered hoAV you did make the diagnoses you did. I missed you quite a bit when tha t prostate of yours jus t wouldn't behaA'e during the Senior year, and I hope you never have any trouble with it again. Bye-bye.

J O E SENIOR.

Well Bob: S r - ~A0b*rt 3- ^ P * 1 1 ? How's Mrs. Goldfish and all the little Goldfish? I hear you do all your

fishing in the aquarium you have at home, so you better be careful about the size of that "whopper" you caught. You've almost got me convinced to have a "submucous" done on myself, by the skill of your lectures, but I guess I'm a little "yellow" when it comes to that proboscis of mine. I'm a little afraid to come to see you, because then I'm sure I'll be comdnced to haA e it done. So long. J O E SENIOR.

P.S. : I helped the family doctor diagnoses a case of maxillary sinusitis. I advised him to come to you for a special course in Rhino-Laryngology.

~ , , A Sr. Uiattew # . iEnstter Dear M a t t :

Thanks for arranging for that entertainment at the Senior smoker. Tha t was the best smoker the Senior Class ever had. I attended last year's Senior smoker ( I 'm not repeating the year, but there Avas so much food left, they had to call me in or else throw the stuff out) and it didn't rate at all. Please thank the other members of the Alumni who had a hand in the proceedings. I've often Avondered hoAV you find time to have a very busy practice and yet be an active member of so many organizations, teach at the school and write so many articles. You must eat a lot of spinach.

And, Matt , that Avas swell "spychology" you used on that little girl on whom you later did that radical mastoid. Toodlc-oo J O E SENIOR.

Hello " T " : r a

HOAV'S the ar t course coming along? Oh yes, IIOAV come they changed the sex of the models after a little while? Why bring that up? Anyhow, up in the little town where I expect to practice, the leading medico jus t can't wait until that book of yours comes out. I had a Junior Intemeship at the hospital in that town, and I told him a feAv of the things you taught me. He had such success with the method of treatment that noAV, he's all "hot and bothered" about Neuro-Surgery. Ain't that sumpin? He hasn't offered to take me in as his assistant though, so Avhat shall I do about it? Please answer soon. J O E SENIOR.

Timothy, brother, I pray you this way— My house has been open for many a day. . . .

Oh, no! I thank you, thank you, friend! I am bound for another land. . . .

Listen to reason, Timothy—your hand! No, no, Satan! You don't understand!

Fve been a good father—a worthy friend . . . Timothy, you've lost the other land!

This your refuge, safe from pursuit! Come, stop shaking—forward one foot!

What's a little brimstone—a lively show! Compared to the Hell on earth below!

Outcast-of-God, I'm of the kindly and meek! I inherit the earth—I succor the weak!

My neighbors loved me—my wife adored! I fed the hungry from my daily hoard!

Now I'll be off—with your permission. . . . Timothy, the Lord is aware of your grave omission!

Timothy, old man, my own blood brother, You've been kind to child and kind to mother. . . .

But God cares naught for all you name . . . Puny virtues . . . courage . . . fame!

Satan, have pity! Where then have I been! What, I implore, was my deadly sin!

Timothy, forward . . . up this hill . . . You did not pay your Doctor's bill!

A illation a prapr I'm growing tired of gigolos,

And somehow for a day or so

I've had a craving quite acute, I want a doctor beau.

They seem so fine and different, So nonchalant and slow.

I wonder just hozv one proceeds

To catch a medico?

I think I'll take up nursing And run the gauntlet through,

Just to be a. helping hand, To cheer him when he's blue.

I'm sorry I'm a flapper, girls, I'm longing for a different life.

It surely cannot be so bad, To be a doctor's wife.

Stop and reconsider, lady,

Is it worth the price you pay? Worth the tears when you discover

That your idol's feet are clay.

Think of all the fun you're having With your heart unbound and free.

Would you toss away that freedom For some evanescent He?

Think before you do your fettling,

Spend some time in retrospect,

History repeats, my darling,

Pause a while and recollect.
