MEDICAL MEN AND FRIENDLY SOCIETIES.
A solution of the recurrent trouble between medical men and friendly society lodges is thus offered by "M.D." in the "Sydney Morning Herald""Poor people cannot afford the fees of the medical profession, they being too high; lodges were founded for these; lodges should pay £1 a year to the medical man per head; parsons having from £2OO to £4OO a year should be able to employ privately a medical man at 5s a visit by day and 7s 6d at night; medical associations should investigate the current charges made by medical men in these cases. Should my sugges tions be thoroughly investigated, by the medical profession, and by the friendly societies, an issue would aoon be found for the trouble."
