Of all Professional men, the Doctor of Medicine is called upon to do his work under the most adverse circumstances.  "The Lawyer may take days to look up an important problem on which he is called to give advice.  The engineer figures stresses, strains and gradients with the aid of a slide rule and reference tables.  But, THE DOCTOR is called in the dead of night, aroused from a sound sleep and confronted with an emergency, in which immediate action must be taken and highly specialized knowledge is applied.  The Doctor has to carry his knowledge on his Finger-Tips."
