Excerpt from Kingston Medical Quarterly, Vol. 2 Economy was again made to do duty as a reason for cen tralizing the Council's examinations in Toronto. This is an old question, having been brought before the Council at previous meetings. To the credit of the members be it said, this was again voted down. As is well known, before the formation ofthe Council, certain bodies had the right of granting medical degrees which practically carried with them the license to practise. These bodies believing that the formation of the Council would be in the inferests of the profession, and also of the public, made the organization of the Council possible by agreeing to relinquish the right and title to the powers vested in them on certain conditions. One of these conditions was that the examinations of the Coun cil should be held in Toronto and Kingston. From the discussion which took place at the meeting of the Council last July one would naturally infer that the condition requiring the examina tion to be held in Kingston as well as in Toronto was made and that the right was still maintained wholly and solely in the inter ests of Queen's University, which happens to be located in King ston. \ve do not View the matter so. \ve freely admit that not holding examinations in Kingston would be a gross breach of faith by the Council with Queen's University. We further be lieve that such a breach of faith would be more injurious to the Council than it would be to Queen's, for the natural effect of such an act would be to rouse a feeling of hostility to the Council among the graduates, alumni and friends of Queen's (and their name is legion) and we are confident that the Council cannot afford and does not desire to antagonize any section ofthe people. But we believe that this is the least important reason for maintaining the examination as at present. Kingston is educationally the centre of Eastern Ontario as Toronto is of Western Ontario.
