The regular me ting of the Huron Medical Associatio was held in Wing - ham last Wedne day night. There were present, Drs Emmerson, White- ly, Macklin and T ylor jr. of Goderich, Drs. Shaw and Galadier of Clinton, Drs. Burroughs and Ras of Seaforth, Dr. Machell of Dub in, Dr. Ferguson of Teeswater, Dr. Jamieson of White- church and the local physicians. Dr. H. A. Bruce, of oronto was expected to be present to eliver an address, but on account of thillness of his father was unable to ttend, but forwarded his paper which was read before the society by Dr. E merson. One of the chief reasons fo the association meet- ing in Wingha at the present time was to celebrate Dr. Tamlyn's jubilee, Dr. Tamlyn havi g now been in active practice for fifty years and being the oldest medical p : ctitioner in the coun- ty. It was unfo tunate that Dr. Tam- lyn was unable o attend the meet- ing on account of illness. However, after the businesand scientific part of the meeting, the embers of the asso- ciation in a body isited Dr. Tamlyn's house and presen ed him with an ad- dress. Following this they repaired to Johnston's restaur nt where a splendid dinner was served by Mrs. Johnston. Mr. Morton's orch stra fnrnished music which was much appreciated during the dinner hour. Dr. Gandier, Miss Stella Griffin and rofessor Cline fur- nished songs duri g the evening. It wes perhaps the m st successful meet- ing.ever held by this association. The following is t e address present- ed to Dr. Tamlyn: 1 Wingham, March 13th, 1912. Dear Sir: -The re -organized Huron Medical Association may well feel that they have met for the first time under favorable auspices when they have made their meeting the occasion to do honour to their oldest practitioner. It is not, however, on account of the time you have served in the profession that we desire to pay you our respects, but rather that durif1g a long service you have endeavoutied to uphold the aims, the ideals, and he ethics of the profession. Medical t en who keep in touch with the advancing thought and progress in medicine and the surgery always belong to the youngest school, however advanced in years they may be. This fact, however, is too often forgotten by the pi hlic, who imagine that th, young d,,ct r must necessarily ---- - know something that the older doctor This Applies o Wingham. An Ontario excha'.ge gives this good advise to its citizen., and we command it to the good and 1•yal people of Wing - ham: "If you w 11 simply make up your mind that yo are going to live here, if you will n xt spring do some painting and fixins up which show that you mean it, if 3 ou will invest your money here inste • of every corner of the earth, your p operty will go up in value fifty per ce t.

We ate pleased to note, tin t notwithstanding your age and strenu us life under con- ditions, by no means so easy for a doc- tor 1 for no they are to day, you are still enjoying goud health that your hopes and aspirations are yliung, your spirits buoyant, and that yob still retain your love and devotion to your profession. You certainly have practised medi- cine under conditionii different from what they are now.' You have gone hundreds of miles on foot and horse- back. You know by experience what a trail through the woods and the bli+ze on the tree means. You have faced all kinds of blizzards and snowdrifts.
