MEDICAL RESEARCH
NEW SCHOOL AT PADDINGTON OPENED BY THE KING (British Official Wireless.) RUGBY, December 12. (Received Dec. 13, at 5.5 p.m.) The King, accompanied liy the Queen, opened the new medical school at St. Mary’s Hospital, Paddington. The building cost £250,000, and ranks as one of the first schools of medical research in Britain. His Majesty said he felt a special interest in revisiting St. Mary’s since many years ago the skill and care of a nurse from that hospital contributed largely to his recovery from an attack of typhoid fever. The King referred to the tireless efforts devoted by research workers, who forever were wresting fresh secrets from Nature, adding to the existing knowledge in many different fields. The dissemination of this knowledge was no less important for the people’s health and depended in great .measure on the training which medical schools were able to provide, for the doctors of to-morrow.
