.
Doctors Can Stretch Words As Well as Their Bills. Dr. Meyer Beber, chairman of .the open B"nai B'rith meeting Thursday, had to get a new&item in the Jewish Press about the meeting. Not that alone, but the news item, he was instructed, was to take up at least-onehalf column of space. Meyer had only two facts to work with—that it was an open meeting and was to be held Thursday. He thought, .used Jbis fertile immagination, and finally -ground out a Tstory of just one-half column. And It was news, and made the first page of the paper.
