MEDICAL- ETHICS THE slogan of the Massachusetts
The question of ethics, as far as advertising is concerned, is one that antl-suffragettes is: "When a man
has bothered the doctors of Lake county quite a good deal, as it does mem- comes home tired at night, he does
bers of the profession elsewhere. In speaking of this question, the Kansas City Star says: "The stickler for 'ethics' is bound by tradition and narrow prejudice. The physician who places a sign upon his door considers this course legiti
mate on the ground that it will aid his patients In finding him, but he prob
ably would blanch with horror if asked to place tills same 6ort of a sign In a conspicuous place and large type in a newspaper where It would serve
the same purpose, but with far greater utility. Why should a physician de
cline to make a frank announcement of his business In a daily newspaper? He is in business for the money there is in it The so-called 'advertising'
dentist Is anathema to the so-called 'ethical' dentist, yet both may be grad
uates of the1 same college and equally capable and honorable in their pro fession.
There Is another side to this 'ethical' proposition of which little has
been said. This is the newspaper's side. It is a fact verified by experience that not one 'ethical' physician or lawyer in a hundred is at all averse to public mention ot his connection with any number of cases of creditable importance the more the better. There are many 'ethical professional men who would.be entirely willing to do honest and legitimate advertising if the
otner einicai professional gentlemen would do likewise, Fortunately, however, 'ethical' prejudice is yielding, slowly but surely, to good 6ense and
progress. Advertising is a necessity in almost every branch of human in
dustry. Ministers of the gospel find that it fills their pews, lawyers find that
it brings them clients, schools and colleges find that it enlarges their enroll
ments. And, we may add, the most successful money makers in any phase
of life are those who manage to secure, in one way or another, a generous
amount of continuous advertising In the newspapers.

THE WORKMAN AND HIS OWN HOME. One of Judge Gary's dreams when he founded Gary was that the workmen employed in the steel mills 6hould own their own homes. Every advantage and opportunity Is offered by the steel corporation to aid Its employes in this respect. Homes may be bought for on payments the same as rent and if at any time an employe wishes to sell he may sell his property back to the corporation at advantageous terms. There is a tendency on the part of the Gary workmen to buy their, own homes. During the summer a large number have been sold. There is no reason why the Gary steel worker should not be paying for his home, for no where in Indiana are thee such opportunities offered.

HENRI DUNAUrS DREAM. Henri Dunaut was a wealthy young man. Like many other sous of th rich, he knew nothing better than to spend his money for personal pleasure. Then one day he had a vision. It was the vision of the Red Cross, a dream uniting the whole world under one banner for the relief of human suffering. Yes. it was "only a dream," men said. , But Henri Dunaut started out to make his dream come true. Like
Paul, he was not disobedient to the heavenly vision. He spent his life and his fortune In organlrJng the International Society of the Red Cross. It was a gigantic realisation of u gigantic task, the milting of the world of men in works of common mercy. What was money beside this dreamt And so Henri Dunaut literally became poor that the world through his poverty might become rich In pity and in deeds of mercy. And the world forgot. Not long since It remembered what It owed Henri Dunaut. the founder of the Red Cross. He was old and poor, having impoverished himself in his labors. He was voted the Nobel peace prize, which will amply provide for him nntil his death. Who of the moderns has dreamed or accomplished a nobler dream? Talk of captains of industry the world Is tired of the stories of material success. Here is a captain of mercy. Here is a man who has syndicated the good Samaritan. Where battlefield or fire or flood or earthquake or pestilence may be. there is the race of civilized men leagued
together for the succor of bruised humanity. We talk about the brotherhood of man. Here Is a visualized brotherhood, a colossal union of human hearts, a merciful mission in whose .labors of love is no distinctly of race or creed or color. And Henri Dunaut has been one of those of whom the world was not worthy. But now Now the world will not forget untl he is dead. The world has a way of remembering Its modest heroes only when they die. .. - The world loves you. Henri Duniut.
