Physicians it is true, have learned to mask their feelings in such cases. We expect it in male doctors. However, how about a woman physician?.. Does long medical practice entirely merge the mother instinct that is a woman's natural heritage, when death takes a woman physician's child? There are some who may say yes, but "Mary Stevens, M.D." a Warner Bros, picture which is on at the King's Theatre to- day, with Kay Francis playing the title role. presents a pretty strong case for the other side.
