ACER On March 22 Dr. Ager gave the vo cational guidance class a very inter esting talk on the possibilities of women doctors. She said they had to wcrk hard to keep up wltn the men doctors who were rather Inclined to look down on the women. : She aald that the people did not put very much faith in women surgeons be ams they did not think them very capable'of quick decisions which are needed for such things. She said she did not know If it was worth the ef fort and sacrifice required to make good. She said maybe men espect wemen to be dumb because they wear skirts. She told many interesting things about her classmates. She ssld U sometimes when going to school you would not get out doors only once or twice a month when she went to school and It was bard on your health, but now many places require you to get out some. You become so inwrMtMi vou hate to leave vour studies There are many different fields for I women doctors. Women like children I and maternity cases best. They do ' not like general practice very well. When she went to school she got scarlet fever and one girl died of blood poison. She said when you study medicine you are eirald of al most everything, because you learn the danger of disease from many things. Stelfhla Warner is the only woman holding the position of as sistant surgeon general. San Francis co offers the most encouragement for women but It already has many doc tors. A doctor must be willing to go into the rural communities and small towns because although It 1 more Interesting in large towns. It takes lots of money to keep going. Mildred Hebcner.
