PREFACE

My excuse for presenting this little book to the profession is that I have often felt the want of just such information as is herein contained. In fourteen years of practice I have made it a point to study my patients and the business problems that confront the man in our profession. Some of the things that I have learned are embodied in this book. Taking my professional experience as a whole I have collected over ninety per cent of my accounts.

If this book shall be the means of causing any physician to study the business side of professional life, and get what is due him, I will feel that I have not worked in vain.

Enid, Okla., June 6, 1912.
