...University of late have been those that have looked toward better care for the health of the students. Dr. Fitz's announcement in this morning's CRIMSON, of a new departure in the way of a daily consultation hour, is wise and particularly well-timed. The sudden changes of weather incident to this time of the year increase the number of slight illnesses and such provision as is made by the University for the care of students in need of medical attendance takes away the possibility otherwise present of occasional suffering from neglect...

The men are now divided into four sections, each of which practices three times a week. J. A. Leighton Gr., has the general management of the practice and each section is under the direction of the following men: J. G. Ames Gr., R. H. Starr '96, G. C. Curtis Sp., and F. L. Beecher...
