They are handled in a routine way, the doctors making the diagnoses and offering the patient treatment in Stillman Infirmary, or if he prefers, entrusting him to a reputable Boston specialist. Only strict secrecy, in the tradition of medical ethics, distinguishes venereal treatment from the treatment of mumps or any other ailment...
