Education of Nurses

The subject for yesterday's morning session was "Medical Educa tion," and several interesting papers were read on this vital subject, followed by some forceful remarks by several foreign doctors ye devoted years of work in to teaching Chinese, and nearly all of whom expressed the pleasure they felt to see so many men, once their pupils, who are now qualified physicians. Several of the foreigners who addressed the assembled medical men have been in China more than thirty years arriving at a time when there was not one Chinese trained in western medicine. As a sign of the progressiveness of the times, it was interesting to note the number of women doctors among the many present, yesterday's attendance exceeding that of Monday.
