AUSTRALIA’S ILLUSTRIOUS  

DEAD.  

The people of the Commonwealth  

have suffered treble bereavement. An  

ex-Governor-General, in the distinguish-  

ed personality of Lord Northcote, the  

recently returned representative at the  

Empire Conference and Minister for Ex-  

ternal Affairs, Hon. E. L. Batchelor, and  

Sir John Hoad. Chief of the General  

Staff of the military forces of the Com-  

monwealth, have passed into eternity  

during the past ten days. The Victorian  

Hoard of Directors have cabled condo-  

lences to the family of the late repre-  

sentative of Royalty, who while with us  

so ably and enthusiastically assisted  

A.N.A. ideals, making them better un-  

derstood at home and abroad by his stir-  

ring speeches at our Manufactures Ex-  

hibitions and other functions. The Hon.  

Egerton Lee Batchelor, Minister of Ex-  

ternal Affairs in the Fisher Government,  

had fatal attack of heart failure while  

on walking tour among the hygienic  

and bracing iiffiuences of mountain scen-  

ery. The suddenness of the sad event,  

which removed one of our best respect-  

ed native statesmen at the comparatively  

early age of forty-seven years, is gene-  

rally- deplored. The sight of Federal  

Ministers and Members of the Federal  

Legislature walking in funeral proces-  

sion, escorting the remains of their be-  

loved colleague through the streets of  

Melbourne to the railway station en route  

to Adelaide. South Australia, was most  

impressive. Sir John Hoad, Chief of the  

General Staff of our Defence Forces, was  

buried with military honours. Born at  

Goulburn, N.S.W., the deceased soldier  

began life as school teacher, which  

by strange coincidence was the pro-  

fession adopted by the lamented Minis-  

ter for External Affairs. His career as  

commissioned officer began in 1884  

when he was lieutenant in the Mounted  

Rifles. His services with the Australian  

troops in South Africa earned the Im-  

perial Decoration for him, and he was  

knighted in the order of St. Michael and  

St. George. The loss of the General,  

who was but 56 years of age, is seri-  

ous one when the defence problems of  

our young nation are at such critical  

stage. He was an ex-president .of the  

Prahran branch of our Association.  

Australian natives offer their tenderest  

sympathies to the sorrowing relatives.  

MEDICAL ATTENDANCE.  

The Medical Congress at Sydney,  

N.S.W., held in September, was not  

without interest to A.N.A. and Friendly  

Society members generally.  

The important subject of contract  

practice was brought forward. The  

committee appointed twelve months ago  

submitted lengthy report, stating that,  

at the eighth session of the Australasian  

Medical Congress, held in Melbourne in  

October, 1908, the following resolution  

was passed:—  

“ That no medical man should pass  

for admission into any Friendly Society,  

lodge, club, association, or private list,  

for professional attendance at contract  

rates of remuneration, any person,  

whose income from all sources, together  

with that of his wife (if any), exceeds
