STUDENTS RECEIVE DEGREE) List of Debaters Who Won Medals? The Prizes Awarded?Music a Feature. "It is the American mother that has mad American surgery what It is," declare Prof. Carl Beck, M.D., professor of ayrger n the New York Post Oraduate Medics HI oyviuiuiK ai IUO ittu uvuvuuanu >f the George Washington University yei :erday afternoon at B o'clock. In Memorli Continental Hall. His address, which we >n the subject of "The Influence of Amer :an Medicine and Surgery on Europe," hel he attention of the audience for over a lour. This convocation was the Initial one of lerles which will be a part of the universlt >rogram every year. Its purpose, as oui lned by President Charles W. Needham c he university. Is to provide for the generc issembllng of all the students of the un! erslty, both new and old, at the beglnnln >f the school year, to excite Interest In th ictlvltles If the Institution and to provld nsplratlon for the work of the year. The attendance at this first convocatlo vas not large, owing ' to the Inclemer veather. The exercises of the afternoo vere begun when the member* of th 'acuity, students upon whom the degree vere to be conferred and members of th itudent body of the university marched lnt he hall, with President Needham and Di 3eck in the lead. Following an lnvocatlo >y Rev. M. Ross Fishburn, pastor of th tfount Pleasant Congregational Church, an i selection by the orchestra, the speaker c he afternoon. Dr. Carl Beck, was lntrc luced. Dr. Beck's Address. In opening his address Dr. Beck state hat for an appreciation of what America lurgery has achieved, it was opportune t evlew the progress from ancient times. H tegan with the earliest surgical records 1: Egypt, where a treatise on tumors, wrltte 552 B. C., has been discovered. He trace ts progress through the flourishing times o Jreece and Rome to the more moder >eriods of surgery In Germany, France an Cngland; to the discovery of the patholog cal theories, the Roentgen rays, etc. Thl irought him to consider American surger> i-hich he Introduced as follows: "The are of surgery could be practiced onl; inder the greatest technical difficulties o: iccount of the pain the patient had to en lure In an operation. There Is no lndlca ;lon that ever before a surgical operatioi doo norf rtrm nrkan nnflnrif rlM ma T uo (/ciiuiiucu n iicii LIIU uiu iiu luffer the horrid agonies of combined phya eal and psychical pain, until it was reserv >d to the United States of America to glv he world that Immense blessing, anesthe ila. The discovery of ether In 1846 as i lafe means for making a patient senseles without any danger to his life brough nore progress In a few years than thlrt: sentunes had brought before. Operation :an be performed now the possibilities o tfhlch our ancestors could hardly dream. "The name of the discoverer. Dr. W. 1 Morton of Boston, should be a househol< vord throughout the entire civilised world 3ut, alas, there is hardly one non-medic nan who knows even the name of thl jreatest benefactor of suffering humanity Nothing Illustrates the peculiarity of hu nan nature more clearly than the deplor ible fact that the public at large Ignore luch men. Public squares are ornamente vith the statues of generals, whose vlctorle arere sometimes won In spite of rather tha jecause of their abilities, or simply by th sravery of their subordinates. The trul: freat hero, who has sacrificed himself t Ind the means of preserving lives lnstea >f destroying them. Is forgotten, while th east thing gratitude could do for him woul >e to erect a monument In every village o :he earth. ro inose or our European conrreres wn ire still endeavoring to belittle America ichlevementa, it may be said that If Amei ca had contributed nothing else than anes :hesla to surgery, It would have done we: snough." Institutes Comparison. Taking up then a comparison betwee 3erman ajid American, medical educatlor le stated that, while the American has bee leveloped in a short time, It Is to the credl >f the Americans that they saw the defect! tVhlle the American medical course Is onl; 'our years and that In Germany Is five, h itated that the American students attende itrictly to work, while the German student levote some time to libations and duel! The motto of the American surgeon 1 ltillty, he declared, and while German vlll probably hold Its leading: position 1 he theoretical branches of the professlor he United States will became authorltativ n practice. Mr. Beck then took up the subject of ant! leptics and spoke highly of the influence c he characteristic trait of cleanliness 1 Vmerloans in surgery. The Americans ar tcknowledged, he said, to be the cleanee >f races; and this characteristic, he de :lared, has made itself felt in other coun ries. Indirectly. This Is noticeable in th mmigrants from lands where the annue >ath is regarded as a useless extravaganc ind who bring all kinds of Infection wit hem. By the example of their new fello-i ,!*! < (n oanann^lAn tVift' '1 LIACllOf ixi mo ocv-uuu gcu^iav-ivit, vuc, levelop a keen sense of cleanliness. "The youngster always reflects the mothe nore or less," he continued. "If he Is clear here Is little doubt that hlsjnother too] >ains In teaching him how" to cleanse hi lair, his flnger nails, the sole of his fool lis mouth and his clothing. It Is th American mother that has made America] lurgery what it is." Benefactors Enumerated. There are other sun rays, too, he said 'he works of McDowell, who performed th Irst laparotomy; Valentine Mott, who as onlBhed the world in lrtlrla lnnomlnata .nd others. Warren and Parker did mucl o'ward the development of modern surgery .nd, furthermore, American genius llfte< he veil from the pathology of the verml orm appendix and exposed Its mischievous ess, and the American prospective is no? ieing accepted by the Qermans. The nev ullding of the anatomical institute in Ber In is constructed after American ideas o nedlcal education buildings, again showlnj American influence.^ Another Importam ihase of the matter is that in 1904 the in ernatlonal congress at St. Louis brough io less than 140 illustrious men from acrosi he waters to SI. Louis, and they all sai< hey came to. learn something, and the; ifd. "The time for .reciprocity has come." hi laid, in closing. "Let us compete with ou: European confreres by mutual exchange >et us visit Europe as frequently as possl ile and let the Europeans visit us. Let then ;lve us their refined knowledge, based upoi lasslcal and fundamental research, and le is show them the splendid technical achieve nents which are so characteristic of thi Jnlted States.
