Since this June 7th afternoon China is richer by seventeen graduate women doctors, who have obtained their degree of M.D. from the North China Union Medical College for Women în Peking. These seventeen young Chinese women have completed the requirements of the five year course at the college, preceded by two years work completed at some recognised college, and are now ready to enter upon & term of interneship either in one of the

DAVIS HOSETTAL.“
In the tubercular ward at the hospital I saw a poor woman lying rigid on her side in bed, but, with a pleasant smile lighting her drawn face as the foreign lady doctor came up. The sheet drawn back from her body disclosed limbs misshapen ifrecognizably, -the bone of one hip completely exten away, while in other parts the bones passed through the rough unhealthy skin.

"Ordinarily," said the doctor, "we do not koop hopeless cases, but this woman walked and was carried fifteen miles to reach us. We will have to keep her bere til the end. We can at least make her comfortable.”
In another corner of the room room was a tuberculous woman who had taken morphine to get Erid of her pain. She had come to
be cured of the habit.
“We always have at least one morphine patient here," said the idoctor. "They pay their board tin advance for one month and inust agree to stay so long. It usually is found before then that some, physical ailment has brought on the habit. By curing that we cure the patient of both.”
PREVALENCE OF CANCER.
Next to tuberculosis perhaps the most common sickness re-
presented in the hospital were cases of tumor and other growths." Cancer is about as common among Chinese women as among foreign. almost always the hospital also contains an insane patient-not- kept there as in an asylum but for Purposes lof study into possible physical causes of the trouble. May we hope that from a study of these, poor unfortunates who exist in such numbers in China and for whom absolutely nothing is done, the young Chinese students who go out may be moved to try to meet this great need and problem ?.

The baby problem is being undertaken in the right way, however, as is shown by the
recent Better Baby week held by the Y.W.CA. in Peking. Here thirty three babies and their mothers, mostly of their upper classes gathered every day dur- ing the week for instruction. Lectures were given on care of the child before birth, and after. on feeding, - and health; and exhibitions of model clothing, of bathing and care were given from charts and programmes sent out from America for the occasion. On the last day a con- test was held at which the babies were put through a set of five testa on, physical condition, measure- ments, eye and ear; throat and teeth, and mental development, and the winner, who made & score of 967 out of a possible on thou- sand according to the official score card of the Better Baby Contests in America was award- ed, the blue ribbon. A second contest is to be held in six months to register improvement in the places needed.
The Chinese women doctors are able to contribute their part to the health programme for new China. During the Better Baby week, five of the seven lectures given were by Chinese women doctors, authorities and special- ists in their line. They Field the palm to none. The next generation is safe with them.
