Watkins Hospital Lists Famous Doctors
Hippocrates, Lister, Pare, Rhazes. Harvey, Long, Pasteur, Osler, Jenner, Galen, these are the names, each of them of a man long famous for some outstanding contribution to medical knowledge. When the new hospital was being planned, members of the health service staff wrote to prominent medical men who were students of medical history, asking each to name the ten men he thought had contributed most to medical progress, the staff retaining the prerogative of making the final choice.

Hippocrates was the first to take medicine out of the realm of magic and bring it down to earth. Ignoring the gods, he believed it necessary to consider the disease as a part of nature, and to study it from that standpoint. Born about 460 B.

Pasteur, whose name is one of the widest known, first discovered the place of bacteria in fermentation. The practice of sewing the edges of wounds together was started by Pare, surgeon to Napoleon, Emperor of France. The use of serums and vaccination was first discovered and successfully tried by Jenner. Chloroform was used as an anesthetic until Long introduced the use of ether. Not a thought was given to cleanliness in surgery until Lister devised his antiseptic methods. Os-
These men did contribute much to bring about the existence of our hospital. Without them, we would still be doing pagen dances to drive out the devils of disease. But no they were hardly the ones who donated the building and equipment. The hospital and its modern equipment was a gift to the University and the students from Mrs. Elizabeth M.
