TALK GIVEN
BY DR. 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.

Interesting to note that more maga
zines are taken out on Friday than
any other day. It Is -rumored that
