OTTAWA, --~ Opportunities for women to study medicine in England still excel those on this continent, ac-, cording to Dr, Rachel Haight who has returned from London and is as- suming medical practice in Ottawa. Born in Waterloo, Ont, Dr. Haight took her medical degree at the University ;of Toronto and ob- tained the Alexander McPhedran re- search fellowship, Since 1982 she has been affiliated with the national hospital for nervous diseases and the Marie Currie women's cancer hos- pital in London as well as with the ---- London hospital and Royal Fred Hospital, "Women doctors are taken as a matter of course on the other side; here they are still regarded rather as freaks," Dr. Haight said. "Dur- ing the war the most famous medical schools®@in England opened their doors to women. Some have digcon- tinued this practice but the Univer- sity College hospital was left a large bequest with the. stipulation that it{ have always 12 woman students; and on the staff of the London School: it is possibic- for women to be taken of Medicine. for Women." The democracy of the very great' doctors in London and the broaden- ing influence of contact with 'medi-| cal students from all over the world greatly impressed the young woman| student from Toronto who also spoke of the intense sense of responsibility the British public has towards its! hospitals. GA "The great gifts and endowments; 'that used to come from the landed gentry are no longer possible be- cause of the income tax, yet every | year the amounts are made up by, charity affairs and halls to Royalty give their patronage. The | doctors also take a tremendous in-! terest especially at Christmas time." Dr. Haight told of a famous we. man surgeon who visitedthe wards on Christmas day, accompanied by her. sister and a friend dressed as golliwogs, who amused the patiénts. It is usual for the head of each ward to wear-a chef's cap and curv turkey. The nurses pruvide the pro. gram of entectainmoent in the uafter- noon.

"There is a family feeling in. hos- pitals and bektveen "doctor and pa- tient when we have not as yet achieved 'on thie side," Dr. Haight said."

Ontario newspapers are natural-' ly concerned about whethur such a law will be either observed or c¢n- forceable, If it is not, they argue with some reason, it would be better not to put it on the statuc books, since a law which is not observed and which the public cannot be fore; | ed to observe does more harm than, good by weakerfRg respect for all! law. If the law is passed and proper' all will signg erected at crossings, they ask, stop? 7 It Q axnerience «oes for any- thing, the answer is that a very great many of them will not. At the same time, and after several years of observation of the Quebec law. in operation, we believe it would be a mistake to rescind it and we think Ontario would be well advised to put a similar law into operation. + Our neighbours have a maximum speed limit for these crossings now,' just as we used to have in Quebec,' ana they ave complaining, as we us- ed to complain, that it is very seldom observed; that the majority of driv- ers do not even slow down at these danger points. Neither did ours. We do not flatter ourselves that the stop law has been as widely obeyed here as it should have been, but its effect on the whole has been beneficial. No traffic law that can be devised will be universally obeyed. Even in our cities, with police on duty on every hand and human life at stake, there are unhappily many drivers who will take a chance at the stop signal, in the hope of "gétting away with it." On the country road the temptation is naturally greater, and the task of unprotected motorists tela enforcing the law completely is beyond the resources of our huge Provinces.

The men servants had been told to stand by, as they might be wanted during the night, but they had not been told what duty was required of them. It was a very dark night, the wind was fairly high, and the threshing branches of the trees cross the lawn had an eerie effect. © A few stars shone out of the black dome of the heavens. " One-eye had received the articles which TIoster had telephoned for from a local dealer and had gone 'out with them after dack, but what "he had done or where he had been "he had not divulged, and Foster had not asked. He was content to leave the organisation of his schemes to the mulatto, who had turned pecu- liarly silent and uncommunicative. There was no light in the room in which One-eye and Foster sat, but | IFoster noticed that the detcetive had [his revolver on his knee and. his "cudgel was sticking. up from his jacket pocket. Toster had armed himself with a small automatic which he had borrowed from the late "James Barron's study. "Sure dat dog can track, asked One-cye quietly. "TI got him from a farmer who uses him to hunt poachers," replied i the doctor. "He is a big brute, half Airedale and half hound." "Got yo' boots on?" "Yes."

Foster was beginning to feel the effect of his lack of sleep and he dozed in his chair in spite of the ex- citement of the expectation. He was aroused by the hand of One-eye on his knee. "Hark, doc." The growl of the dog came up to them from the back of the house---=a low, deep growl, rumbling and men- acing. "Do you see anything, "Mus' be vound the Steady up!" One-eye poked his head out of the window. Next moment he drew back and fell on ond knee, his gun raised. IFoster followed his example, his nerves strung up to their highest pitch. The thing was before them before they realised. .

MONTREAL.-~The tip of a boy's nose, once separated from its owner by several miles, »is back in place, "perfectly normal looking except for minor scars," Dr. J. N. Roy, plastic surgeon, recounted. The doctor, plastic surgeon at Notre Dame Hospital and professor at the University of Montreal, told how he performed the strange op- eration two years ago when the voungster sliced off the end of his nose on a broken headlight. Parents of the boy met him rush- ing into the house, holding his nose. [ind of the nose was still there but when the bov removed his hand it away. The lad was rushed to hospital. : Dr. Roy decided little done without the other section of the nose and sent the father home for it. It was found on the sitting room carpet, The boy was placed under could be an an- aesthetic while the amputated sec- tion of his nese was sterilized and "boiled" in a tepid physiological serum until three hours after the accident. : "I made a last coepsy of the wound, and the tip of the nose, well dried, was carefully coated and sut- ured with silk by means of small conjunctival needlesy' said Dr. Roy. "As there was no loss of cutaneous substance, [ succeeded in re-estab- lishing the anatomy of this organ, ~ "In order to better stabilize this tip of the nose and at the same time to increase its vitality, I placed a splint in copper, fashioned for the occasion. The splint was retained by bands of adhesive tape, applied transversely to the nasal appendix.
