COUNTY SOCIETY REPORTS

Garrard The Garrard County Medical Society held its monthly meeting at the Kengarlan Hotel, Thursday, July 15, at 2 P. M. with a full attendance, only two members being absent. Dr. A. W. Cain, Councilor, was present upon invitation and delivered an excellent addresse upon "The Modern Doctor" in which he gave good and wholesome advice. The doctor congratulated us upon the fact that every practicing physician in the county with the exception of a colored doctor werd members of the society.

B. C. Rose demonstrated "Bandaging,” in a scientific manner and all were benefited. It is a good idea to rehearse and add to our knowledge practical work. This is only the beginning of practical and clinical demonstrations that may be given in the future.

J. S. Gilbert intended reading a paper upon "Puerperal Eclampsia," but was called away upon professional business. The doctor will read his paper at the next meeting, the third Thursday in August. It is our rule never to excuse a member from contributing a paper when he is placed upon the program.

Our society has been in existence since 1902, and thought at times it was moribund, still the members have kept their dues paid up. We have not failed to meet once a month this year and shall continue as long as two or three can get together.

We have lost two physicians by removal, N. Mays has retired and has gone to Richmond to pass the remainder of his days. W. E. McWill-' iams has removed to Pulaski county where he will continue to practice.

The Councilor will be received with open arms any time he may wish to visit our society. J. B. KINNAIRD, Secretary.
