President Sweeney's address was In part as follows: "It seems fitting at a. time like this when the country seems so much Inclined to commemorate th great events In the history and the pro gress In science and art that we re view what ws might term the golden period of medicine, namely the past fifty years and the wonderful achieve ments medicine has accomplished in that time. It being a notable fact that more progress has been made In medicine In the past fifty years than In the preceding five hundred years. I say It Is fitting because In the past fifty years or more we have been reminded of the wonderful achievements In science and arts by the Century of P ogress fair In Chi cago, and today our own state of Oregon Is making preparation for a Diamond Jubilee celebration to com memorate the birth of this state and the progress It has made in the history making of the United States. "Sir William Osier told us that medicine arose out of the primal sympathy for man and out of the desire to help those in sorrow, need, and sickness. "History tells us that records of disease and treatment therefore are to be found as far back as 3000 years B. 0., but It was not until 400 years B. O. that Hippocrates put medical literature Into form for the use of physicians.

Norge Corporation; Division of Borg-Warner Corp., Detroit, Mldu o-N-e E. J. FELDMAN 24 North' Bartlott St., Medford crates has since ueen known as the Father of Medicine and from that ' time on the science of medicine un derwent one change after another in an attempt to get the truth of dis ease and to combat It rationally. But the progress that has been made In the past SO years, as I stated before, has made this a golden period of medicine. "During this time the span of life has been lengthened by 15 years. Among the Important discoveries or epochs of importance we could name first the diagnosis of appendicitis and an operation by which the dls ease could be cured. The first oper ation was performed In 1884, Just 60 years ago. "While time goes on and because of familiarity, we have become neg lectful and the mortality from this disease Is yet too great. Yet no one can dispute that It was a great step in the progress of medicine. "Second, the discovery of the spe cific organisms which cause typhoid fever, pneumonia, tuberculosis, scar let fever, syphilis, and many other diseases the discovery of which has marked great progress In the stamp ing out of these diseases where pos sible and in the treatment of many other diseases, "During this same period aseptlo surgery has been fully developed. This dates from 1895 following the period of Lord Lister's antiseptio sur gery, and there Is no fceed to speak, further on the wonderful success which this has given to surgery be cause each one knows and is familiar with all the details and the great advantage to be obtained from strict surgical cleanliness. One great ac complishment In the last 60 years has been the discovery of the way yellow fever is transmitted. While this cost the lives of several martyrs to science, and they deserve honor as much as our martyred presidents, for in losing their lives they made It possible for others to live, and the con quest of yellow fever was the chief factor which contributed to the con struction of the Panama Canal. "The X-ray la another achievement of the late nineties and Its Inesti mable value can at no time be un derrated. The control of typhoid fe ver by preventive vaccination and the prevention of scarlet fever and diphtheria by Inoculation marks an other epoch In medical history. The control of not only typhoid fever but other water borne diseases and the means to control such conditions not only In the city but In the rural districts under the supervision of health officers Is worthy of notice. "Another achievement which the medical profession may be proud of Is the development of diphtheria antitoxin less than 40 years ago that has saved the lives of many, many children. It Is one of the most lm most Important advances ever made In medicine and Is only surpassed by Inoculation prevention which Is now available In every part of the world. The discovery of Insulin and Its use In the treatment of diabetes and lately other ailments of malnutri tion othe than diebetes and Its preparation by Dr. F, W. Banting of Toronto Is one of the real romances of medical history, "Lastly, but not least, has oome the standardization o f medical schools. Fifty years ago medical schools were not standardized. There are now nearly one hundred grade A medical schools In the United States and their graduates are all trained In the most reliable method. "Another item which is becoming generally popular and well worth DID WE EVER NORGE NORGE i it, r.l,t,,J ajMM while U yearly physical examinational and Is probably the beat method yet! in the prevention of disease. It keeps one Informed about himself and en ables him better to regul&te his life In regard to food, drink, work, play, exercise and the prevention of dis ease. It is one of the best means to escape heart disease, hypertension and disease of the kidneys. 'Have a physical examination yearly,' should be the slogan of every one. "This Is an age of science and re search. No real progress has been made without research and research Is so often associated with laboratories and much good has been done In this way. But some of the greatest research laboratories are in the offi ces of general practitioners and some of the greatest discoveries in medi cine have been made by the general practitioner. Koch, the discoverer of the bacillus of tuberculosis, was a country doctor; Crawford W. Long, who first used ether, was country practitioner in Georgia; and Jenner, in the discovery of vaccine against smallpox, was a general practitioner In England. "There are many other advances that have been made In medicine and surgery in the Inst 60 years, but they are too numerous to mention In this brief address. But Isn't It suf ficient to make each and every one of us proud In the fact that we are a member of the medical profession? And do not these achievements en courage us to push on and upward? There Is much to be done, and little do we know that many things that now seem Impossible will be more than accomplished before another 60 years shall pass by. Isn't It all worth while, and isn't It an honor to be proud that we are members of a profession where It Is an art and not a trade, a calling, not a business, and a calling in which your heart will be equally exercised with your head? "Often the best psrt of your work will have nothing to do with potions and powders, but with the exercise of your Influence of the strong over the weak, the righteous upon the wicked, and the wise upon the fool ish. Fully one-third of your work will be entered In other books thai, yours. Courage and cheerfulness will not only carry you over the rough places In life but will enable you to bring comfort to the weak heart and will console you In the sad hours when, like Uncle Tobey, you wilt have to whistle that you may not weep." ROTARIANS TAKE E FOR TALK TOPIC An Interesting vocational program was presented before the Medford Rotary club luncheon meeting today under the supervision of Chuck Ellis.

He also told of the advance preparation be fore advertising finally appeared In newspapers. The petroleum Industry.

A veritable ovation was given the Medford publisher who won national recognition for the meritorious publlo service his paper had rendered during the past year.
