Dr. Dafoe Captures Norih Bay, May 11.â€"Although there were gifted and distinguished speakâ€" ers at the annual convention of the Ontaric Bar Association last week at North BEayâ€"outstanding public men like Hon. W. A. Gordon, Hon. Chas. McCrea, noted jurists and ouistanding judgesâ€"it is generally admitted that Dr. Allan Dafoe, physician to Their Royai Highnesses the Quintuplets, was THE guest speaker for the occasion. While he referred to himself as "just an ordinary country doctor," and claimed that he felt a "littl2 sawed to be in such distinguished company," he proved o be the big drawing card not only among the speakers but a‘so beâ€" fore and after the addresses. Centre of Attraction j It was all very informal, Dr. Dafice telling his stories in the same intimate manner as he did before the banquet started when he fcund himself the star attraction in the rotunda. When the Nipissing Bar Association hosts finally got the boys corralled in the banquet rcom, there was someâ€" thing of a mild stampede for chairs close to the doctor‘s of the head table. Mark Wright, K.C., of Toronto, and Undersecretary of State E. H. Coleâ€" man who flanked Dr. Dafos, were busy agmiting‘ to all within earshot that they figured their seats were more precious than any the New York Stock Exchange had to offer. When the doctor addressed the banâ€" quet gathering, the dignified men of law found the greatest cause for deâ€" laughter not only in his wit and humour but also in the amusing attitude that he assumed in appearing to be surprised when his sallies drew roars of laughter. When they finally managed io get Dr. Dafog to his feet, ‘ne expressed earnes©: ccncern that they got their pockets well stufifed with the "birthâ€" promoting" stones when visiting the quints earlier in the day. Stricken by Virus "Jean Hersholt packed ‘back a boxâ€" ful to Hollywood after the first visit of ‘the movie cocmpany to Corbeil." And it was then, confided the docâ€" tor, that the film capital was first smitten with the currenily raging wantâ€"aâ€"baby virus. "Those stones must be doing the business," he assured the grinning leâ€" gal lights, "for we‘ve had plenty of reâ€" peat orders." "When Jrâ€"an came back the second time, he brought so many orders for stones that we set a man to work breaking up rock," relared the doctor. Not cnly. h> assured thne few unbeâ€" licvers in the big gathering, have the stcnes produced desired results in Holâ€" lywood. but their magic seems effecâ€" tive anywhere. Women from all over the United have taken away our stones," said he. "and the next year they came back carrying babies. Honest." Hitler and Mussolini, in their moreâ€" babies campaigns,. must have tipped off German and Italian mothers to the pebble magic of Corbeil, for che Dafoe hospital gets a quantity of transatâ€" lantic mail orders for rock, the deâ€" mand from Italy and Germany being espccetally heavy. "But we‘re operating on the comeâ€" andâ€"getâ€"‘%. system." said the doctor, "because it doesn‘t do business any harm when the tourist thousands come trcoping into the north." In the first frantic days after the bates® birth, the whole worlid chippc* in with "helipful suggestions" he reâ€" "A paper in Detroit wonted to ship us two dozen wet nurses, but we did not have any plac» to house them." "The babies may be the empire‘s second roval family; they certainly are uot freaks, and it has been the Dr. Dafoe ended up by cornering the market in Torontc on mothers‘® milk. with daily orders thas grew from a few ounces to two gallons. o uids He said he believed contact with | pecplelsverynecasarymtbedeve'i opment and educasion of the children,} adding. however, that perhapsaneri next year, they will not be shown tourâ€" mmmsmmaum.f A million and a quarter courists have , mse ta Corkei! and another 080 ix) t Legal Convention ars expected this year, he said. _ In presorviny the spark of life in | those tiny bodies the first weeks after birth, the doctor said it could havse | been done "by any country doctor." "I am not an overlyâ€"pious iman,." concluded Dr Allan Roy Dafoe, "but I tolieve Providence helped us in those hours during and immediately after the birth.
