DISEASES OF THE EYE, EAR, NOSE AND THROAT.

Professor Hedges.

Dr. Compton.

In these subjects two lectures a week for the first half of the year
will be given the fourth year class. The aim of the course will be to train
the general practitioner in the diagnosis and treatment of such conditions
as are met in daily practice,—that he may not refer to a perhaps distant
"specialist" cases which should be treated at home and that he may refer
intelligently and promptly such cases as do need the attention of a specially
trained worker.

Clinics in the Dispensary will be held twice weekly throughout the
session. Here students will be taught individually the uses of the ophthalmoscope,
head-mirror, etc., and methods of diagnosis and treatment.

Cases in the University Hospital will be demonstrated to small sections
of the class at a time.
