Abstract
THE meeting of the British Medical Association; which has just terminated at Edinburgh, must be regarded as a great success, both with regard to business and pleasure. At the end of July there is a strong predisposing cause towards holiday; and an excitant which draws the medical man towards so favourite an area for holiday-making as Scotland at this time of the year is naturally welcome to all. A congress is a very good beginning to a holiday, as the recollection of it tends to alleviate what is often the boredom of idleness; and doubtless thoughts born of discussion in Edinburgh are now being developed and bearing fruit a hundredfold in the remoter holiday-taking places of Scotland.
