Show A Message From The Doctors To Their Patients Season's greetings and best wishes for your health and happiness hap-piness in the coming year. At this season of the year it is also important for your doctor - to conserve his health and energies to best serve the needs of his patients. When it becomes necessary for you to call your doctor, please do it early in the day. Make arrangements ar-rangements for an office visit if possible. House calls are inconvenient incon-venient and time consuming for your doctor and very frequently do not offer a satisfactory means of treatment for the patient. In these modern times, your doctor is equipped to do his best work in the office or hospital. Consult him early in the event of accident acci-dent or illness. Early, prompt attention offers the patient much greater chances for prompt recovery. Your doctor has regular working work-ing hours in his office. Better cooperation co-operation on the part of patients to seek attention during office hours will be greatly appreciated. Too often your doctor gets a call after office "hours or in the middle of the night, with a request re-quest to see a sick patient, right away, that has already been sick all day or for several days. Waiting Wait-ing till the last thing to call your doctor adds great risk to the patient pa-tient In such cases you probably expect prompt, courteous service from your doctor who is trying to obtain much needed rest. Your doctor has enough night work with actual emergency cases. Don't let your neglect and procrastination pro-crastination create an unnecessary unneces-sary emergency. .
