DR. J. M. CRAWFORD TALKS
ENTERTAININGLY OF TOUR;
PROUD OF HIS OWN COUNTRY
Among Atlanta people who have spent
the summer abroad, none made n more
Interesting- four or brought home n richer
fund of Incident nnd anecdote than l)r.
J. M. Crawford nnd. hla non. Dr. K. 1>.
Crawford, who bare Just returned after a
three nionthn* absence.
On June 11, Dr. Crawford nnd hi* ton
•ailed for England, going direct to Lon-
don for the purpose of attending the din-
ton at the great hospital* there. Tbla being
the tecond time Dr. Crawford ha* made a
study of the eye. ear, note nnd throat hoi*
pita!* of England, hi* observations are In
teresting ns well a*, valuable.
Asked which of the two countries, Eng
land or America, he considers the more ud-
vnneed In this hrniuii of the medical pro-
fession. Dr. Crawford replied:
"I am dad to say most emphatically
that America Is far abend of her mother
country In the equipment of her hospitals
and in the method* of her apeclallsts.
The training that the American man gets
in New York Is worth influltely more than
any be could get In England. And It Is
quite wonderful how one l»ecome* more nnd
more Impressed with the efficiency of the
American |>euple lu every profession, ns one
travels abroad.”
After some tlhie spent In London, the re-
innlnder of the summer was given over to
•beer enjoyment of all that Europe of
fers the traveler. Hobert Louis Stevenson,
that prlnct of wanderers, remarked, "I
travel not to go anywhere, hut to go," nnd
so It was that the little Journeys made
through France' Belgium, Germany. Knit-
xerlnnd and Italy, with no particular desti
nation In view, nnd no aim except to enjoy
to the fullest the wonders of the Old World,
held more for Dr. Crawford and hla non
than the stereotyped mute of the profes
sional American sightseer.
"First, we went to Paris." said Dr. Craw
ford. "and It *e#uied tp me. that this city
owes more to America tbsn we are ever
given credit for. Its most beautiful boule-
vard*. and many -of Its handsomest build
ings, are those erected by American mon
ey. American trade, American opinion and
Anicrlraii customs arc nil leaving their
mark more nnd more distinctly upon Pari*.
••Going from France to Belgium, 1 tbjnk
that which most Impresses one In the peo
ple of the latter country Ip the.free nnd
democratic spirit of Its people. No one
could help loving them for It. Another
evident characteristic, is a certain spirit of
recklessness which seems to pervade the
very atmosphere of Belgium. It Is not gen
