the A. O. A. and others amply
fill that need. We have wanted
you to know that Still College

Medical Aid for 3 Per - I


*"" Des Moines General Hospital
Cent of Income
A plan whereby families with
incomes of $2,700 or less may
receive all needed medical at-
tention for a yearly charge of 3
per cent of incomes-came be-
fore the Omaha-Douglas County
Medical Association for decision
recently.
The proposal provides that all
members of the medical society,
hospital and nurses, offer their
services to the group of families
eligible for the "health poli-
cies." It is provided that these
policies be cancellable only on
grounds of "deceit or fraud."
Size of the family would have
no bearing on the fee.
An executive board composed
of members of the society would
handle the medical end of the
plan and the financial part would
be handled by a financial com-
pany. Members of the organiza-
tion would be permitted to select
their own doctor, nurse and hos-
pital, and each physician or sur-
geon would be required to list a
schedule of fees for patients in
the $2,700 class.

DES MOINES is a rapidly growing city and for nearly fifty years has been an Osteopathic center.
In this city of opportunity the Osteopathic student is well received and he is afforded the opportunity
of
studying clinical material rich in abundance in this community of 150,000 population. In such a large
ob-
stetrical, surgical, athletic and general clinic as Des Moines affords, the student is graduated from this
college as an experienced and practical physician. This is a clean, progressive, wealthy city, where
busi-
ness integrity, civic and moral standards are high. Libraries, museums, parks, recreational facilities,
and educational advantages are found in this city which is the capital of the State of Iowa. Des Moines is
easily reached from any city of the United States by railway, air, or paved highway. These advantages,
combined with the highest type of Osteopathic instruction, make Des Moines Still College of Osteopathy
the ideal school in which to matriculate.

D. M. S. C.O. Clinics
THE CLINICAL DEPARTMENT is one of the most important
departments of any school of therapeutics. In this city of
150,000 people, Osteopathy is kindly received and our clinics are
full the year around with patients receiving treatment in the var-
ious clinics of the College. Here our students are taught how to
examine, diagnose and treat under the supervision of the heads of
the various departments. It is in these clinics that the student
learns to corelate theory and actual practice . . . . actual cases, not
theoretical cases. We are justly proud of our clinics. The special
clinics include Gynecological, Obstetrical, Surgical, Practice, Eye,
Ear, Nose and Throat, Nervous and Mental, Cardiovascular, Respir-
atory, Renal, Athletic, and the Out-Patient Department.
The Obstetrical Clinic averages about 250 cases yearly, in
which the student has a minimum of seven cases he must attend
personally. Deliveries are made by the student, under the super-
vision of the head of the department.
The Athletic Clinic takes care of all athletic teams in all the
city high schools and one academy located here. Athletic injuries
are treated at the time they occur by the student assigned to that
particular team.
The Out-Patient Department trains the student in the care of
acute cases and is conducted under the supervision of one of the
faculty.

THE FACULTY of this College are selected yearly by the Board of Trustees and serve on a salary basis.
They are, therefore, regular in their work, prepared and present at each class meeting. We boast of
specialists in each department who devote the major portion of their time to the College and not to outside
interests. In keeping with customary practice, the Trustees have approved a number of Associate Profess-
ors, members of'the profession in the city, who offer occasional lectures and conduct special clinics. The
fact that our faculty has been practically intact for a number of years is conclusive evidence that they are
giving the utmost in service and satisfaction.
* *-

ORGANIZATIONS of an academic and social nature are to be found in the College. Men's fraternities
represented are the Iota Tau Sigma, Phi Sigma Gamma, and Atlas Club. Delta Omega sorority has
a chapter here. Honorary professional fraternities here are Sigma Sigma Phi and Psi Sigma Alpha. This
College is the only Osteopathic College having a chapter of Square and Compass, National Masonic Fratern-
ity. The College Band and Orchestra are well known throughout the city. Competition in various Intra-
Mural sports is open to all students.

Des Moines General Hospital

ES MOINES STILL COLLEGE opened its hospital, the Des Moines General Hos-
pital; in Des Moines, March 15, 1910. The hospital is five stories high, including
basement, and will accommodate about seventy-five patients. The building is brick
and the location is ideal. It is situated two blocks from the Iowa State Capitol
Building and one-half block from the Iowa State Historical Building, thus affording
pleasant surroundings for convalescing patients. It is in a residential district. One-
minute car service to all parts of the city may be had one block from the hospital.
THE OPERATING ROOM is well furnished with modern apparatus and instru-
ments. It is provided with an amphitheatre for students in attending the clinics.
Here the operative work for the College is done. As high as ninety-six patients have
been operated on in one day.
THE CLINICAL LABORATORY is fully equipped with the best and latest ap-
paratus known to science. All forms of laboratory diagnosis are made here complete
in every detail.
THE X-RAY EQUIPMENT is the best obtainable. A powerful Snook Trans-
former, with auto-control, permits handling of every kind of work, from the most
delicate structures to the most heavy parts. The department owns $10,000 in radium
for treatment of cancer.
THE HOSPITAL has a state and nation-wide reputation for the high standard
of its work. In it students are trained in hospital technic and procedure.
