Morton of San Francisco gave a lecture on "Spinal Analgesia." On January 12, 1922, at a joint mecting of the Shanghai Medical Society, The National Medica] Society, and the Medical Missionary Society, some very interesting clinical cases were shown by members of the three Societies, and an extremely profitable discussion followed in which many took part.
During all these meetings, at which there was an average attendance of 92 members, and 3 visiting physicians, it was noticeable that a gradually increasing interest was being developed in the business and objects of the Society, which was shown chiefly by punctual attendance, a friendly spirit of ce-operation, and a keen general desire to take part in the discussions.
Early in the session, the Pre sident, Dr. Ransom, had to leave Shanghai for a much needed holiday_and his place was ably filled by Dr. H. Fresson, as acting President.
