Conventions

Over  500  conventions  and  congresses
have  chosen  San  Francisco  as  their  meet-
ing place  in  1915.  These  cover  a  wide
range  of  subjects,  and  it  has  been  esti-
mated that  the  attendance  from  delegates
and  their  families  and  friends  interested
will  reach  at  least  half  a  million.
She  sent  for  me  in  haste  to  come  and  see
What  her  condition  for  a  cure  might  be.
Dear  me!  a  patient— what  a  happy  tone.
To  have  a  patient  and  one  all  my  own-^
To  have  a  patient  and  myself  be  feed,
Raised  expectations  very  high  indeed—
I  saw  a  practice  growing  from  the  seed.
— Wm.  Tod  Helmuth,  My  First  Patient.
