Medical Motoring.

The doctors of Vienna have organised an automobile club on a co-operative basis. It is proposed first to persuade the home manufacturers to build a car specially adapted for doctors' work. Then upon payment of a moderate sum down, followed by monthly instalments, the club will assist the doctors to become automobile owners. The monthly payments will be less than the present cost of hiring a two-horse carriage by the month, as most of the doctors do. The club will have its own central garage, and branch garages will be opened in various districts of the city as the demand increases. The promoters of the association hope to increase the number of motoring doctors from the present twenty or so to at least 200.
