Speaker 1 (00:06):
The Shenley Laboratories produces of penicill and Shenley and Shenley
Pharmaceuticals presents Beyond cor Yon Core Theater play Tonight, The
Life of Louis Pastor. Our star is Paul Lucas. To Night,
(00:38):
Shenley Laboratories presents another and a new series of great
dramatic programs. Some of our stories are fact the struggles
and accomplishments of great men of medicines. Others are fiction
stories of devotion to an ideal individual, heroism, or great courage.
By these programs, Shenley Laboratories will remind you that medical
(00:59):
science and progress is not cold in personal research or
pages of statistics, but a warm human story told in
living terms, whether it's the life of one of medicines
immortals or the simple everyday record of service rendered by
your family physicians. Now the Life of Louis Pastor, starring
(01:27):
Paul Lucas as Pastor and George Zuko as Charbonnet.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
You cannot begin to tell the story of Louis Pest's
without telling many stories. For his story he must be
told in terms of human lives and human progress. His
own lifetime is not even so much his story as
the story of an error in medicine, and of people
marked for death who lived because of him.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Who was he? What was he? Well?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
First and last he was a chemist, a chemist and
a fighter, and never a very tactful one. Take that
matter of the pamphlet's, hey, it distributed all over.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Paris, Louis a copy of your pamphlet just to write?
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Oh good, let me see it. Hm hm, Doctor surgeons,
wash your hands, boil your instruments. Microbes cause disease. Did
they say whether they have started distributing these?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
They said that by nightfall there would be a copy
of every home in Paris.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Well, then by nightfall, my dear, we are sure to
be in trouble in a good many homes in Paris,
even I suspect in the palace of the Emperor.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yes, the story of Louis Pasteur is the story of
many people. It is certainly the story of Monsieur Chabonet,
adviser on health matters to Napoleon, the third Charbonet, a
man who hated Louis Pasteur. The pamphlets afforded Chabonet a
rare opportunity, Your majesty, Look.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
At these pamphlets. This man isn't even a doctor, he's
a chemist.
Speaker 7 (03:28):
Oh yes, I recall he claimed to have found little
animals in.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Sour wine grace, a heating wine too a certain temperature.
Monsieur Pasteur was able to destroy them. I presume he
pants to cure blood poisoning by boiling our blood.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Heaven forbid, I won't tolerate such practice as Charbonet, of course,
not why.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
If doctors want to do anything so absurd as to
boil instruments or scrub their hands and be laughed out
of the hospital, ask pastor to come to court.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
Monsieur Charbonet. We will put an end to this nonsense, Pastor. Yes,
your majesty, Pastor, and the preservation of the wine industry.
You have been of service to France. It is my
(04:17):
command that in the future you can find your work
to that field. But Sir, what of the pamphlets he's
already written. For that Monsieur you will publish an immediate
retraction or suffer my displeasure.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
What happened, Louis, you will have to pack Mary.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
We are leaving Paris tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yes, Louis, we want me to apologize for the pamphlet.
But I won't. I won't take back what I know
is to I'll die first.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Don't worry, my dear, Someday you'll prove you're right. Where
are we going, Louis.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
To we may have to spend many years in arbor.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
The story of Louis Pestor is the story of the
sheepherders and cattlemen of abuar in whose cause he spent
the next few years. And because of those years, his
story also is the story of the first President of France.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
This is the first president of the new Republic of France,
President Louis Adolf tears.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Gentlemen of the Cabinet, you are aware of the conditions
upon which Bismarck has consented to withdraw the German armies
from France. In addition to forfeiting out Sainte Lorraine, we
have to pay an immediate indemnity of five billion francs. Here, Chaperonney,
you are chairman of the agricultural board. How do you
(05:55):
suggest we raised the money?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Your lessen say, I hardly know what to say. Industry
us a standstill. Farms are being neglected, A devastating plague
is destroying our cattle everywhere excepting one small province, the
district with Obois.
Speaker 8 (06:10):
Why is there no plague in Artwis.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
I don't know, your excellency.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
You don't know.
Speaker 8 (06:15):
As chairman of the agricultural board, you should have investigated,
Monsieur Chaboney, you and your assistant doctor Martel.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
We'll kindly leave for Artois immediately.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Yes, I beg your pardon. We were sent to our
bois to discover why your sheep have escaped the plague.
We were directed here by a neighbor who told us
his sheep have been treated by someone.
Speaker 9 (06:46):
You're quite welcome. I'm sure father will be delighted to
see you, monsieur. My name is Annette Pastor Pastor.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
That chemist again, So, Monsieur Charbonney, we meet again.
Speaker 9 (06:59):
This is doctor Martin.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
How do you do when you come in? Our quarters
are very humble, but you are most welcome.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
So you are now the savior of sheep? Monsieur. I
suppose you tell us about them microbes.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
I'll be glad to We are convinced, after eighty years
of experimenting, that we have discovered a vaccine which, when
injected into the animal, will set up an immunity.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
All ridiculous it will take eighty years to convince me.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Yes, I am sure it would.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Well, I've heard enough.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
Are you coming, doctor matel.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
No, mister chaubonet. I'm going to stay.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
Those you please, but I'm going back and make a
report of the cabinet, with you or without you.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I'll make no report without an investigation first.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
And so doctor Jean Martel met Annette Pasteur and her
illustrious father, and his life became part of the store
of loids Peste. He stayed several days trying to grasp
Pastor's theories.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Here.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Now, look at the slide under the microscope. You see,
it reveals a number of dormant germs or spores as
we call them, which are found in the grass and
soil wherever diseased animals have been buried. Now our health
is stuck. Eat the grass, they become infected and die.
The germs become spores again, and the cycle starts all
(08:28):
over again. And you say, these spores are present even
here in the pastures at Arbua. Oh, yes, for an
animal that hasn't been vaccinated. Arbor is one of the
worst areas in all of France.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Father.
Speaker 9 (08:38):
I'm sorry to disturb you, but the newspaper just came
and there's a proclamation in more.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Let's see no amfraxted arbor. What in the name of
heaven are they talking about?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Government to appropriate huge areas for grazing. Chargonet urges farmers
to bring healthy sheep to Arbois free of charge.
Speaker 5 (08:55):
They die, all of them. The fields are areakieve it antigian.
Even if they elected me, I couldn't eaculate them all.
It would take weeks to make the vaccine. But is
there anyone who can appeal to.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yes, there is, but it won't be easy. I can
call a meeting of the Academy of Medicine and tell
them about your discoveries. Would you do that? Of course,
it's the only thing we can do.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
They came from all over France to hear about anthrax.
The great medical men gathered on the floor of the auditorium,
and in the gallery the people said to listen, farmers,
sheep herders, cattle raisers, and in their midst sat the
small humble figure of Louis Pasteur listening to doctor Marteau.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
I tell you, I've seen with my own eyes what
pastor has done for the cattle and sheep. Of barbwis we,
on the other hand, members, if the Academy of Medicine
have contributed nothing in the fight against antrax, then why
in Heaven's name don't we listen to a man.
Speaker 6 (09:54):
Who had Doctor Marteau.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yes, Monsieur Charmonayt.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Monsieur Pastor was discovered to be a Charlotte anten ye
years ago when he made a ludicrous claim concerning the
cause of child bed fever, which he was never able
to prove. Consequently, I see no reason for humoring him.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Further, I disagree. If someone's gonna cure for ran frats,
I want it all about. Yes, very well.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
In that case, I propose an experiment. Let us take
fifteen normal, healthy sheep, twenty five of which will be
vaccinated by Monsieur Pastor, the other twenty five who remain
as they are. I shall then infect all fifty sheep
with anthrax, and I defy any man or any vaccine
to save one of them. Well, Doctor Marteaux, I can't
(10:45):
take it upon myself. I defy him to try.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Messrs.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
I accept.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
You have treated all twenty five of those sheep I have,
Monsieur Charbony. I am now at liberty to inject into
their veins the blood of an animal that has died
of antrex.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Preceeded by all means.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
Mons, I am from the London Times. Would you care
to make a statement? The sheep that have not been
treated by me will die within forty eight hours. Yea.
Speaker 10 (11:21):
Others won't even be ill. I suppose at least let
us hope they won't for the sake of France. In
a moment, we shall return to our play. But first
(11:42):
an important message which vitally concerns all people today, with
many parts of the world in the grip of famine conditions, Penicillin,
the drug known as the savior of human lives, now
is bringing a new benefit to mankind through its use
in maintaining the health of domestic animals as well as
human beings. By combating disease and animals, penicillin helps to
increase the amount of milk, meat, and other foods so
(12:04):
vital today in the face of the world food shortage.
These new uses for penicillin demand a large supply, and
among the firms contributing to that supply is Shenley Laboratories.
Because of its extensive background of research in mold and
fermentation processes, many of which Pastor investigated.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Shenley was particularly.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Well fitted to play a part in the development of
penicillin and allied products. Shenley pharmaceuticals developed to date include
penicillin tablets and troquets for administration by mouth, and penicillin
ointments for local application upon your physician's prescription. In producing these,
it has been the aim of Shenley Laboratories to contribute
all within its power to the cause of man's well being.
(12:45):
This will continue to be our goal. We are now
turning our resources and facilities toward perfecting other types of pharmaceuticals,
so that your doctor may have more and better weapons
with which to fight disease. Now back to the Life
of Lewis Pasta starring Paul Lucas's pastor and with George
Zuko as Charbonnet.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
The story of Louis paste is to the story of
the people he loved, the story of Annette and of
Jean Marteil.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
You're very quiet, inn it. What are you thinking?
Speaker 9 (13:30):
Oh? All sorts of scenes. I was thinking about father
and praying a little. I guess this experiment is so
important to him. And I was thinking about mother and
how good she is, and a little about you, and
how good you are?
Speaker 4 (13:46):
What were you thinking? You've been very quiet yourself.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I was thinking about you. I was thinking that you're
very beautiful and very good, very understanding that the man
you're except for a husband will be the most fortunate
man that ever walked this earth. Then I started thinking
if I were that man, and then I was completely lost.
Speaker 9 (14:08):
If I were to accept a husband, it would have
to be someone very much like you. And if you
don't ask me, I don't know where on earth I'll.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Find one and let my daughter.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
Missus pasteur. Have you any idea what's going on in
your garden?
Speaker 3 (14:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (14:39):
And you come away from that window. Immediately your daughter
is being kissed. Oh she's your daughter too, Louis not.
Then she's being kissed and she's all her mother's. How
good it must be to be as young as dead?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
How good it is to be as old as this, Louis,
Do you realize what this means? Tomorrow you're successful. Every
farm in your will want your vaccine. You won't have
a moment's peace day or night.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Marie.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
The benefits of science are not for scientists. They are
for humanity.
Speaker 9 (15:12):
Mother, father, Jean and I have something to take with
your permission.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
We want to be married, sir, well, I should think so.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
The story of Louis Pasteurs, of his loved ones Marie
and Annette and Jean and the others. It is also
the story of fifty sheep, twenty five live ones and
twenty five dead. The story of Louis Pasteur is the
story of the great doctor Lister who traveled from Edinburgh
to observe his experiment. They met shook hands that day,
(15:46):
two men who are making history.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Pasteur, you are making the entire world microbe conscious. I
foresee marvelous benefits, especially in the field of surgery. The
honor is mind doctor and well a queen. With the
work you are doing on antiseptics. Thanks to you and
your brilliant leadership, today much a definite turning point in
the world of science. You can no longer be classified
(16:10):
merely as a chemist. You are an inspired benefactor to
all menkind.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yes, the story is of many people support an opponent,
friend and enemy, man and animal. The story is part
of the lives of millions who never knew him, of
those who survived operations because of sterile instruments, of those
who survived deadly diseases because of his knowledge of the microbe.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Knowing what's going on in the laboratory.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Why is that dog howling?
Speaker 5 (16:41):
No, Maria, don't get yourself all upset. There's nothing to
be so concerned about.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Louie, you're not working with all Louis No, not hydrophobia.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Ah.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
I suppose you may as well know. I've been trying
to discover a cure for months. I pledged myself to
wipe it from the earth.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
And the story is part of the life of the
Russian doctor Zarenov, who defied Pastor's old enemy Chabonet, on
the floor of the Academy of Medicine.
Speaker 11 (17:16):
I came here commissioned by my government to investigate Pastor's efforts.
My people have for centuries been preyed upon by rabid
wolfs and messieurs. I would worship, I would kneel to
any man who could point the way to a cure.
How do we know back to the area are not harmful?
How dare we say they do not do the dead?
Speaker 5 (17:37):
They work?
Speaker 11 (17:38):
The pastor craimes.
Speaker 6 (17:39):
He invited Pastor to attend this meeting. You ignore the invitation,
Monsieur Chabonet.
Speaker 11 (17:44):
If Pastor is unwilling to come to us, then let
us go to pastor.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
Go to pastor.
Speaker 11 (17:52):
Humility, monsieur, is a virtue not only in those who suffer,
but in those who hope to heal.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Well.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Gentlemen, it's fortunate we found you in monsieur. It is
the wish of some here that the Academy of medscenario
with the committee visit Doctor Zaronov, has been reading your
recent statements in the journal promising a cure for rabies.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Dr Zarenov, as usual depressed take liberties. I said only
that I was on the threshold of a vast new world.
I understand.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
May one inquire when you intend to cross that threshold.
Speaker 5 (18:35):
Monsieur Charbonay. Science takes a step, then another, then it
stops and reflects before taking a third.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Step.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
By step, I am reaching the ultimate conclusion that all
diseases are caused by micro oh pasta. You don't believe me, sharboney,
Look at this vire in my hands. I hold enough
rabies virus to wipe out the city. Let me see that.
I'll be careful. Don't uncork it. Cry If you have
the tiniest scratch on your hand.
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Really, and let me make a scratch. I have a penknife, Charbony,
don't be a fool. There is that deep enough?
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Give me that vire.
Speaker 6 (19:10):
Oh no, now, I'll just rub this virus into the cash.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
Harbony, fool there.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
I'm Sepastor. All I want is for you to predict
me out of my death.
Speaker 11 (19:28):
I came to see Monsieur Pastor because I wanted to
warn you about Sharbonney. For weeks now, he's been parading
up and down the boulevards, making a great show of
the fact that he is alive and healthy. You can't
afford to be made ridiculous. The work you are doing
is too important.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
I wish it very important, but it isn't. My results
have all been negative.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
You you cannot find the microbe.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
Not a sign of it. I'm completely baffled. Every animal
that was vaccinated with the contents of the test tube
died except Charboney. For some reason, he was able to
resist the disease. I don't know. Are you certain it
was the same tube positive? It was the only specimen
I had.
Speaker 11 (20:05):
Well, perhaps you let it stand too long. Perhaps the
germs grew less virulent with age. Wait a minute, wait,
a minute. That must be it. The germ was weak
enough for the system to overcome. Come with me, I
want to speak to my assistant.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
Huh, yes, Lois Howard was the dry tissue when chabonierupped
it into his arm.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Fourteen days. That must be it.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Zen enough. Now, suppose we start with a fourteen day
old virus that's no longer deadly. Suppose we injected into
a healthy animal, and day by day, as nature build
ups his resistance, we increased the doses with stronger, fresher
samples until he is able to withstand the actual disease.
Would he not be then immune?
Speaker 11 (20:46):
No, it would never work if the first injection did
not kill him, the second wood or the third.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Where those tubes you've been preparing, Jean al right behind.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
You, sir, They're all in order, each one is dating.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
Here we are fourteen days.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
How many dogs have you left? Are they all well? Heavy,
perfect condition? They've never been exposed.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Inaccurate them with the virus of hydrophobia.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
And so the story of Lois Pasteur's the story of
ten dogs who became immune to hydrophobia in fourteen days,
and it is also the story of a German doctor
and a little boy or.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
Monsieur Pastor, I apologize for not giving you notice, but
I've come all the way from Alsace with the child
who has been pitten is outside in the carriage.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Would you help him?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Hollow?
Speaker 5 (21:34):
Has it been, doctor Pfifer, eleven days you cauterize the wounds.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
Not right away, it must have been twenty four hours.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
I don't know what to say to you, Monsieur. I employed.
My treatment has saved dogs, yes, ten of them. But
I haven't the faintest notion what effect it would have
upon a human being. If I failed, it would mean prison.
I have the guillotine. I am not a doctor. There
are rules and traditions governing these. This is a.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
Human life, Monsieur Pastor.
Speaker 5 (22:03):
You may be able to save it. You alone in
the entire world. I paid you to tie.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
He paced the floor late that night, hour after hour,
he walked, while a child's life hung in the balance,
and countless millions of other lives. Dare he experiment with
a human life? And yet the life was doomed if
he did not. He went up to the boy's room.
He sat there, watching, watching in the distance of dogs
howling lashed the night and shivered to him, and at
(22:37):
last he knew, whatever the consequences, he had to risk them.
He rose and then went into the laboratory, and the
Bunsen burner.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
That he lit was like a beacon.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
How is he, John, He's improving all the time.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
What is there?
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I don't know? Shall I open it?
Speaker 5 (22:58):
But of course, doctor Soaranov, of course, come in, doctor Zanov.
Speaker 11 (23:05):
I'm sorry to improve it, but I just came from
the Russian embassy. Those people outside of Mejique's peasants, they
have been bitten by rabid wolfs.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Their villagers have sent them to you.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
They've heard so soon as mister.
Speaker 11 (23:14):
Pest's cure of the boy is the talk of the contract,
but it isn't proved yet. That's why they are here
to offer themselves for the test, doctor Xeno scientists. My
treatment was intended for dogs vaccinated dogs in the disease
will vanish I only attempted the treatment with the boy
because his case was desperate. But these people are all desperate.
(23:35):
Surely you won't to refuse them the same opportunity.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
You are their only chance.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
Very well, I will try, Jean, take them to the hospital,
isolate them. See that I get a full report in
every case.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Thank youeur, thank you. What we must have a mission
from the Academy. I will see that we get permission.
Patient number one, first treatment, fourteen day old virus. Patient
number seven, fourth day, can you changed not this morning?
Continue treatment Patient number eight.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
Let me see the report. Mm hmm eleven day virus.
Speaker 11 (24:18):
The results are amazing, Pastor, every single case improving.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
How proud you must be, no, no, only grateful, Doctor's Adams.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
I'm sorry to interrupt to Louis, but monsieur Charbonet is
waiting at your house. Charbonet, Yes, he says he himself
wants the pastor treatment for hydrophobia. Louis, monster Charboney just
(24:49):
told me that a foreign scientist is giving a lecture
at the Academy this afternoon. He claims to disapprove in
your entire germ theory.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
What who is he?
Speaker 5 (24:59):
What is his name?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Name is lister?
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Doctor Lister attacking me.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I'm afraid, so order a carriage.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
He came in a side door, worried, almost in tears
for he loved and respected lister. Chabonet met him at
the door, his eyes warm.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Come with me. They want you to sit on the platform.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
They hurried down a side aisle and hesitated on the
edge of the platform where LISTA was standing, and a
man came off the platform and offered him his arm.
And bat man was Louis Adolph Tears, President of France.
Stunned and completely unable to grasp what was happening, he
took the President's arm and walked out on the stage.
Speaker 12 (25:44):
I stood up as he walked out on the platform.
The members of the Academy of Medicine, and the young
medical students, and all the people who enable a crowd in.
They stood up, applauding and shouting their approval. And Louis
Pastor held out his arms told them, and the tears
ran down.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
His face.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
To sheer paster. I greet you in the name of humanity,
Doctor Listers.
Speaker 11 (26:08):
Your pestor, on behalf of his majesty that are of Russia.
With profoundest gratitude, I present you with the diamond cross
of the Order of Santi.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
I thank you, I thank you.
Speaker 5 (26:26):
I have no words to express you, young men, doctors
and scientists of the future, do not let yourself be
tainted by skepticism nor discouraged by the sadness of certain
hours that creep over nations. Do not become angry at
your opponents, for no scientific theory has ever been accepted
(26:48):
without opposition. Live in the serene peace of libraries and laboratories.
Say to yourselves, first, what have I done for instruction?
Speaker 13 (26:59):
The time comes, then you may have the immense happiness
of thinking that you have contributed in some way to
the welfare and progress of all mankind.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
In a moment, we'll bring back our star Paul Lucas.
But first, ladies and gentlemen, may we leave you with
this thought. One of the most notable facts about the
practice of medicine is that each succeeding discovery in the
field has always become the property of all who devote
themselves to the cause of healing. Channley Laboratories pays tribute
through this series of programs to this unselfish, progressive ideal
(27:48):
we have. Channey Laboratories feel that physicians everywhere may well
take pride in a spirit of sharing for the greatest.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Good of the greatest number. Now, ladies and gentlemen, mister Lucas.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
Friends, to sum up the spirit of this Shandley Laboratory's program,
this simple and beautiful prayer of the Physician, written centuries
ago by Mamanidis, seems to me to be apt and fitting.
The eternal Providence has appointed me to watch over the
life and death of all diye creatures. May I always
(28:21):
see in the patient a fellow creature in pain, and
grant me strength and opportunity always to extend the domain
of my craft. This is the prayer of the Physician.
It is ages old, yet to day it is as
new as the hope for a peaceful way of life
for all the world. And now may we invite you
to listen again next week at the same time when
(28:44):
Shanley Laboratories presents Yellow Jack, starring Ronald Coleman, a great
star in a great story. Good Night, A.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Life of Blowy Pastor, produced and directed by Bill Lawrence,
is the sented to the courtesy of Warner Brothers, who
this year is celebrating the twentieth anniversary of Sound Pictures.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Was adapted for radio.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
By Gene Holloway.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Paul Lucas appeared through the courtesy of International Pictures producers
of The Stranger, soon to be released through RKO. This
is Frank Graham speaking for Chanley Laboratories. This is CBS
The Columbia Broadcasting System
The Shenley Laboratories produces of penicill and Shenley and Shenley
Pharmaceuticals presents Beyond cor Yon Core Theater play Tonight, The
Life of Louis Pastor. Our star is Paul Lucas. To Night,
(00:38):
Shenley Laboratories presents another and a new series of great
dramatic programs. Some of our stories are fact the struggles
and accomplishments of great men of medicines. Others are fiction
stories of devotion to an ideal individual, heroism, or great courage.
By these programs, Shenley Laboratories will remind you that medical
(00:59):
science and progress is not cold in personal research or
pages of statistics, but a warm human story told in
living terms, whether it's the life of one of medicines
immortals or the simple everyday record of service rendered by
your family physicians. Now the Life of Louis Pastor, starring
(01:27):
Paul Lucas as Pastor and George Zuko as Charbonnet.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
You cannot begin to tell the story of Louis Pest's
without telling many stories. For his story he must be
told in terms of human lives and human progress. His
own lifetime is not even so much his story as
the story of an error in medicine, and of people
marked for death who lived because of him.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Who was he? What was he? Well?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
First and last he was a chemist, a chemist and
a fighter, and never a very tactful one. Take that
matter of the pamphlet's, hey, it distributed all over.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
Paris, Louis a copy of your pamphlet just to write?
Speaker 5 (02:32):
Oh good, let me see it. Hm hm, Doctor surgeons,
wash your hands, boil your instruments. Microbes cause disease. Did
they say whether they have started distributing these?
Speaker 4 (02:45):
They said that by nightfall there would be a copy
of every home in Paris.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Well, then by nightfall, my dear, we are sure to
be in trouble in a good many homes in Paris,
even I suspect in the palace of the Emperor.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Yes, the story of Louis Pasteur is the story of
many people. It is certainly the story of Monsieur Chabonet,
adviser on health matters to Napoleon, the third Charbonet, a
man who hated Louis Pasteur. The pamphlets afforded Chabonet a
rare opportunity, Your majesty, Look.
Speaker 6 (03:25):
At these pamphlets. This man isn't even a doctor, he's
a chemist.
Speaker 7 (03:28):
Oh yes, I recall he claimed to have found little
animals in.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
Sour wine grace, a heating wine too a certain temperature.
Monsieur Pasteur was able to destroy them. I presume he
pants to cure blood poisoning by boiling our blood.
Speaker 7 (03:43):
Heaven forbid, I won't tolerate such practice as Charbonet, of course,
not why.
Speaker 6 (03:48):
If doctors want to do anything so absurd as to
boil instruments or scrub their hands and be laughed out
of the hospital, ask pastor to come to court.
Speaker 7 (03:55):
Monsieur Charbonet. We will put an end to this nonsense, Pastor. Yes,
your majesty, Pastor, and the preservation of the wine industry.
You have been of service to France. It is my
(04:17):
command that in the future you can find your work
to that field. But Sir, what of the pamphlets he's
already written. For that Monsieur you will publish an immediate
retraction or suffer my displeasure.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
What happened, Louis, you will have to pack Mary.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
We are leaving Paris tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yes, Louis, we want me to apologize for the pamphlet.
But I won't. I won't take back what I know
is to I'll die first.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
Don't worry, my dear, Someday you'll prove you're right. Where
are we going, Louis.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
To we may have to spend many years in arbor.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
The story of Louis Pestor is the story of the
sheepherders and cattlemen of abuar in whose cause he spent
the next few years. And because of those years, his
story also is the story of the first President of France.
Speaker 7 (05:24):
This is the first president of the new Republic of France,
President Louis Adolf tears.
Speaker 8 (05:33):
Gentlemen of the Cabinet, you are aware of the conditions
upon which Bismarck has consented to withdraw the German armies
from France. In addition to forfeiting out Sainte Lorraine, we
have to pay an immediate indemnity of five billion francs. Here, Chaperonney,
you are chairman of the agricultural board. How do you
(05:55):
suggest we raised the money?
Speaker 6 (05:56):
Your lessen say, I hardly know what to say. Industry
us a standstill. Farms are being neglected, A devastating plague
is destroying our cattle everywhere excepting one small province, the
district with Obois.
Speaker 8 (06:10):
Why is there no plague in Artwis.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
I don't know, your excellency.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
You don't know.
Speaker 8 (06:15):
As chairman of the agricultural board, you should have investigated,
Monsieur Chaboney, you and your assistant doctor Martel.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
We'll kindly leave for Artois immediately.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Yes, I beg your pardon. We were sent to our
bois to discover why your sheep have escaped the plague.
We were directed here by a neighbor who told us
his sheep have been treated by someone.
Speaker 9 (06:46):
You're quite welcome. I'm sure father will be delighted to
see you, monsieur. My name is Annette Pastor Pastor.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
That chemist again, So, Monsieur Charbonney, we meet again.
Speaker 9 (06:59):
This is doctor Martin.
Speaker 5 (07:00):
How do you do when you come in? Our quarters
are very humble, but you are most welcome.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Thank you.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
So you are now the savior of sheep? Monsieur. I
suppose you tell us about them microbes.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
I'll be glad to We are convinced, after eighty years
of experimenting, that we have discovered a vaccine which, when
injected into the animal, will set up an immunity.
Speaker 6 (07:24):
All ridiculous it will take eighty years to convince me.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Yes, I am sure it would.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Well, I've heard enough.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
Are you coming, doctor matel.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
No, mister chaubonet. I'm going to stay.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
Those you please, but I'm going back and make a
report of the cabinet, with you or without you.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I'll make no report without an investigation first.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
And so doctor Jean Martel met Annette Pasteur and her
illustrious father, and his life became part of the store
of loids Peste. He stayed several days trying to grasp
Pastor's theories.
Speaker 3 (08:06):
Here.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
Now, look at the slide under the microscope. You see,
it reveals a number of dormant germs or spores as
we call them, which are found in the grass and
soil wherever diseased animals have been buried. Now our health
is stuck. Eat the grass, they become infected and die.
The germs become spores again, and the cycle starts all
(08:28):
over again. And you say, these spores are present even
here in the pastures at Arbua. Oh, yes, for an
animal that hasn't been vaccinated. Arbor is one of the
worst areas in all of France.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Father.
Speaker 9 (08:38):
I'm sorry to disturb you, but the newspaper just came
and there's a proclamation in more.
Speaker 5 (08:42):
Let's see no amfraxted arbor. What in the name of
heaven are they talking about?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Government to appropriate huge areas for grazing. Chargonet urges farmers
to bring healthy sheep to Arbois free of charge.
Speaker 5 (08:55):
They die, all of them. The fields are areakieve it antigian.
Even if they elected me, I couldn't eaculate them all.
It would take weeks to make the vaccine. But is
there anyone who can appeal to.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Yes, there is, but it won't be easy. I can
call a meeting of the Academy of Medicine and tell
them about your discoveries. Would you do that? Of course,
it's the only thing we can do.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
They came from all over France to hear about anthrax.
The great medical men gathered on the floor of the auditorium,
and in the gallery the people said to listen, farmers,
sheep herders, cattle raisers, and in their midst sat the
small humble figure of Louis Pasteur listening to doctor Marteau.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
I tell you, I've seen with my own eyes what
pastor has done for the cattle and sheep. Of barbwis we,
on the other hand, members, if the Academy of Medicine
have contributed nothing in the fight against antrax, then why
in Heaven's name don't we listen to a man.
Speaker 6 (09:54):
Who had Doctor Marteau.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Yes, Monsieur Charmonayt.
Speaker 6 (09:57):
Monsieur Pastor was discovered to be a Charlotte anten ye
years ago when he made a ludicrous claim concerning the
cause of child bed fever, which he was never able
to prove. Consequently, I see no reason for humoring him.
Speaker 5 (10:09):
Further, I disagree. If someone's gonna cure for ran frats,
I want it all about. Yes, very well.
Speaker 6 (10:17):
In that case, I propose an experiment. Let us take
fifteen normal, healthy sheep, twenty five of which will be
vaccinated by Monsieur Pastor, the other twenty five who remain
as they are. I shall then infect all fifty sheep
with anthrax, and I defy any man or any vaccine
to save one of them. Well, Doctor Marteaux, I can't
(10:45):
take it upon myself. I defy him to try.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
Messrs.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
I accept.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
You have treated all twenty five of those sheep I have,
Monsieur Charbony. I am now at liberty to inject into
their veins the blood of an animal that has died
of antrex.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Preceeded by all means.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
Mons, I am from the London Times. Would you care
to make a statement? The sheep that have not been
treated by me will die within forty eight hours. Yea.
Speaker 10 (11:21):
Others won't even be ill. I suppose at least let
us hope they won't for the sake of France. In
a moment, we shall return to our play. But first
(11:42):
an important message which vitally concerns all people today, with
many parts of the world in the grip of famine conditions, Penicillin,
the drug known as the savior of human lives, now
is bringing a new benefit to mankind through its use
in maintaining the health of domestic animals as well as
human beings. By combating disease and animals, penicillin helps to
increase the amount of milk, meat, and other foods so
(12:04):
vital today in the face of the world food shortage.
These new uses for penicillin demand a large supply, and
among the firms contributing to that supply is Shenley Laboratories.
Because of its extensive background of research in mold and
fermentation processes, many of which Pastor investigated.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
Shenley was particularly.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Well fitted to play a part in the development of
penicillin and allied products. Shenley pharmaceuticals developed to date include
penicillin tablets and troquets for administration by mouth, and penicillin
ointments for local application upon your physician's prescription. In producing these,
it has been the aim of Shenley Laboratories to contribute
all within its power to the cause of man's well being.
(12:45):
This will continue to be our goal. We are now
turning our resources and facilities toward perfecting other types of pharmaceuticals,
so that your doctor may have more and better weapons
with which to fight disease. Now back to the Life
of Lewis Pasta starring Paul Lucas's pastor and with George
Zuko as Charbonnet.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
The story of Louis paste is to the story of
the people he loved, the story of Annette and of
Jean Marteil.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
You're very quiet, inn it. What are you thinking?
Speaker 9 (13:30):
Oh? All sorts of scenes. I was thinking about father
and praying a little. I guess this experiment is so
important to him. And I was thinking about mother and
how good she is, and a little about you, and
how good you are?
Speaker 4 (13:46):
What were you thinking? You've been very quiet yourself.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
I was thinking about you. I was thinking that you're
very beautiful and very good, very understanding that the man
you're except for a husband will be the most fortunate
man that ever walked this earth. Then I started thinking
if I were that man, and then I was completely lost.
Speaker 9 (14:08):
If I were to accept a husband, it would have
to be someone very much like you. And if you
don't ask me, I don't know where on earth I'll.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Find one and let my daughter.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
Missus pasteur. Have you any idea what's going on in
your garden?
Speaker 3 (14:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (14:39):
And you come away from that window. Immediately your daughter
is being kissed. Oh she's your daughter too, Louis not.
Then she's being kissed and she's all her mother's. How
good it must be to be as young as dead?
Speaker 4 (14:53):
How good it is to be as old as this, Louis,
Do you realize what this means? Tomorrow you're successful. Every
farm in your will want your vaccine. You won't have
a moment's peace day or night.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Marie.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
The benefits of science are not for scientists. They are
for humanity.
Speaker 9 (15:12):
Mother, father, Jean and I have something to take with
your permission.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
We want to be married, sir, well, I should think so.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
The story of Louis Pasteurs, of his loved ones Marie
and Annette and Jean and the others. It is also
the story of fifty sheep, twenty five live ones and
twenty five dead. The story of Louis Pasteur is the
story of the great doctor Lister who traveled from Edinburgh
to observe his experiment. They met shook hands that day,
(15:46):
two men who are making history.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
Pasteur, you are making the entire world microbe conscious. I
foresee marvelous benefits, especially in the field of surgery. The
honor is mind doctor and well a queen. With the
work you are doing on antiseptics. Thanks to you and
your brilliant leadership, today much a definite turning point in
the world of science. You can no longer be classified
(16:10):
merely as a chemist. You are an inspired benefactor to
all menkind.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yes, the story is of many people support an opponent,
friend and enemy, man and animal. The story is part
of the lives of millions who never knew him, of
those who survived operations because of sterile instruments, of those
who survived deadly diseases because of his knowledge of the microbe.
Speaker 3 (16:37):
Knowing what's going on in the laboratory.
Speaker 4 (16:40):
Why is that dog howling?
Speaker 5 (16:41):
No, Maria, don't get yourself all upset. There's nothing to
be so concerned about.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Louie, you're not working with all Louis No, not hydrophobia.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Ah.
Speaker 5 (16:52):
I suppose you may as well know. I've been trying
to discover a cure for months. I pledged myself to
wipe it from the earth.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
And the story is part of the life of the
Russian doctor Zarenov, who defied Pastor's old enemy Chabonet, on
the floor of the Academy of Medicine.
Speaker 11 (17:16):
I came here commissioned by my government to investigate Pastor's efforts.
My people have for centuries been preyed upon by rabid
wolfs and messieurs. I would worship, I would kneel to
any man who could point the way to a cure.
How do we know back to the area are not harmful?
How dare we say they do not do the dead?
Speaker 5 (17:37):
They work?
Speaker 11 (17:38):
The pastor craimes.
Speaker 6 (17:39):
He invited Pastor to attend this meeting. You ignore the invitation,
Monsieur Chabonet.
Speaker 11 (17:44):
If Pastor is unwilling to come to us, then let
us go to pastor.
Speaker 6 (17:51):
Go to pastor.
Speaker 11 (17:52):
Humility, monsieur, is a virtue not only in those who suffer,
but in those who hope to heal.
Speaker 3 (18:08):
Well.
Speaker 6 (18:09):
Gentlemen, it's fortunate we found you in monsieur. It is
the wish of some here that the Academy of medscenario
with the committee visit Doctor Zaronov, has been reading your
recent statements in the journal promising a cure for rabies.
Speaker 5 (18:24):
Dr Zarenov, as usual depressed take liberties. I said only
that I was on the threshold of a vast new world.
I understand.
Speaker 6 (18:32):
May one inquire when you intend to cross that threshold.
Speaker 5 (18:35):
Monsieur Charbonay. Science takes a step, then another, then it
stops and reflects before taking a third.
Speaker 3 (18:44):
Step.
Speaker 5 (18:44):
By step, I am reaching the ultimate conclusion that all
diseases are caused by micro oh pasta. You don't believe me, sharboney,
Look at this vire in my hands. I hold enough
rabies virus to wipe out the city. Let me see that.
I'll be careful. Don't uncork it. Cry If you have
the tiniest scratch on your hand.
Speaker 6 (19:01):
Really, and let me make a scratch. I have a penknife, Charbony,
don't be a fool. There is that deep enough?
Speaker 3 (19:09):
Give me that vire.
Speaker 6 (19:10):
Oh no, now, I'll just rub this virus into the cash.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
Harbony, fool there.
Speaker 6 (19:16):
I'm Sepastor. All I want is for you to predict
me out of my death.
Speaker 11 (19:28):
I came to see Monsieur Pastor because I wanted to
warn you about Sharbonney. For weeks now, he's been parading
up and down the boulevards, making a great show of
the fact that he is alive and healthy. You can't
afford to be made ridiculous. The work you are doing
is too important.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
I wish it very important, but it isn't. My results
have all been negative.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
You you cannot find the microbe.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
Not a sign of it. I'm completely baffled. Every animal
that was vaccinated with the contents of the test tube
died except Charboney. For some reason, he was able to
resist the disease. I don't know. Are you certain it
was the same tube positive? It was the only specimen
I had.
Speaker 11 (20:05):
Well, perhaps you let it stand too long. Perhaps the
germs grew less virulent with age. Wait a minute, wait,
a minute. That must be it. The germ was weak
enough for the system to overcome. Come with me, I
want to speak to my assistant.
Speaker 5 (20:21):
Huh, yes, Lois Howard was the dry tissue when chabonierupped
it into his arm.
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Fourteen days. That must be it.
Speaker 5 (20:27):
Zen enough. Now, suppose we start with a fourteen day
old virus that's no longer deadly. Suppose we injected into
a healthy animal, and day by day, as nature build
ups his resistance, we increased the doses with stronger, fresher
samples until he is able to withstand the actual disease.
Would he not be then immune?
Speaker 11 (20:46):
No, it would never work if the first injection did
not kill him, the second wood or the third.
Speaker 5 (20:51):
Where those tubes you've been preparing, Jean al right behind.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
You, sir, They're all in order, each one is dating.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
Here we are fourteen days.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
How many dogs have you left? Are they all well? Heavy,
perfect condition? They've never been exposed.
Speaker 5 (21:04):
Inaccurate them with the virus of hydrophobia.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
And so the story of Lois Pasteur's the story of
ten dogs who became immune to hydrophobia in fourteen days,
and it is also the story of a German doctor
and a little boy or.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
Monsieur Pastor, I apologize for not giving you notice, but
I've come all the way from Alsace with the child
who has been pitten is outside in the carriage.
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Would you help him?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
Hollow?
Speaker 5 (21:34):
Has it been, doctor Pfifer, eleven days you cauterize the wounds.
Speaker 7 (21:38):
Not right away, it must have been twenty four hours.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
I don't know what to say to you, Monsieur. I employed.
My treatment has saved dogs, yes, ten of them. But
I haven't the faintest notion what effect it would have
upon a human being. If I failed, it would mean prison.
I have the guillotine. I am not a doctor. There
are rules and traditions governing these. This is a.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
Human life, Monsieur Pastor.
Speaker 5 (22:03):
You may be able to save it. You alone in
the entire world. I paid you to tie.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
He paced the floor late that night, hour after hour,
he walked, while a child's life hung in the balance,
and countless millions of other lives. Dare he experiment with
a human life? And yet the life was doomed if
he did not. He went up to the boy's room.
He sat there, watching, watching in the distance of dogs
howling lashed the night and shivered to him, and at
(22:37):
last he knew, whatever the consequences, he had to risk them.
He rose and then went into the laboratory, and the
Bunsen burner.
Speaker 5 (22:44):
That he lit was like a beacon.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
How is he, John, He's improving all the time.
Speaker 5 (22:54):
What is there?
Speaker 3 (22:55):
I don't know? Shall I open it?
Speaker 5 (22:58):
But of course, doctor Soaranov, of course, come in, doctor Zanov.
Speaker 11 (23:05):
I'm sorry to improve it, but I just came from
the Russian embassy. Those people outside of Mejique's peasants, they
have been bitten by rabid wolfs.
Speaker 5 (23:11):
Their villagers have sent them to you.
Speaker 3 (23:13):
They've heard so soon as mister.
Speaker 11 (23:14):
Pest's cure of the boy is the talk of the contract,
but it isn't proved yet. That's why they are here
to offer themselves for the test, doctor Xeno scientists. My
treatment was intended for dogs vaccinated dogs in the disease
will vanish I only attempted the treatment with the boy
because his case was desperate. But these people are all desperate.
(23:35):
Surely you won't to refuse them the same opportunity.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
You are their only chance.
Speaker 5 (23:41):
Very well, I will try, Jean, take them to the hospital,
isolate them. See that I get a full report in
every case.
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Thank youeur, thank you. What we must have a mission
from the Academy. I will see that we get permission.
Patient number one, first treatment, fourteen day old virus. Patient
number seven, fourth day, can you changed not this morning?
Continue treatment Patient number eight.
Speaker 5 (24:13):
Let me see the report. Mm hmm eleven day virus.
Speaker 11 (24:18):
The results are amazing, Pastor, every single case improving.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
How proud you must be, no, no, only grateful, Doctor's Adams.
Speaker 3 (24:27):
I'm sorry to interrupt to Louis, but monsieur Charbonet is
waiting at your house. Charbonet, Yes, he says he himself
wants the pastor treatment for hydrophobia. Louis, monster Charboney just
(24:49):
told me that a foreign scientist is giving a lecture
at the Academy this afternoon. He claims to disapprove in
your entire germ theory.
Speaker 4 (24:57):
What who is he?
Speaker 5 (24:59):
What is his name?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Name is lister?
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Doctor Lister attacking me.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
I'm afraid, so order a carriage.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
He came in a side door, worried, almost in tears
for he loved and respected lister. Chabonet met him at
the door, his eyes warm.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Come with me. They want you to sit on the platform.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
They hurried down a side aisle and hesitated on the
edge of the platform where LISTA was standing, and a
man came off the platform and offered him his arm.
And bat man was Louis Adolph Tears, President of France.
Stunned and completely unable to grasp what was happening, he
took the President's arm and walked out on the stage.
Speaker 12 (25:44):
I stood up as he walked out on the platform.
The members of the Academy of Medicine, and the young
medical students, and all the people who enable a crowd in.
They stood up, applauding and shouting their approval. And Louis
Pastor held out his arms told them, and the tears
ran down.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
His face.
Speaker 5 (26:03):
To sheer paster. I greet you in the name of humanity,
Doctor Listers.
Speaker 11 (26:08):
Your pestor, on behalf of his majesty that are of Russia.
With profoundest gratitude, I present you with the diamond cross
of the Order of Santi.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
I thank you, I thank you.
Speaker 5 (26:26):
I have no words to express you, young men, doctors
and scientists of the future, do not let yourself be
tainted by skepticism nor discouraged by the sadness of certain
hours that creep over nations. Do not become angry at
your opponents, for no scientific theory has ever been accepted
(26:48):
without opposition. Live in the serene peace of libraries and laboratories.
Say to yourselves, first, what have I done for instruction?
Speaker 13 (26:59):
The time comes, then you may have the immense happiness
of thinking that you have contributed in some way to
the welfare and progress of all mankind.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
In a moment, we'll bring back our star Paul Lucas.
But first, ladies and gentlemen, may we leave you with
this thought. One of the most notable facts about the
practice of medicine is that each succeeding discovery in the
field has always become the property of all who devote
themselves to the cause of healing. Channley Laboratories pays tribute
through this series of programs to this unselfish, progressive ideal
(27:48):
we have. Channey Laboratories feel that physicians everywhere may well
take pride in a spirit of sharing for the greatest.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Good of the greatest number. Now, ladies and gentlemen, mister Lucas.
Speaker 5 (27:59):
Friends, to sum up the spirit of this Shandley Laboratory's program,
this simple and beautiful prayer of the Physician, written centuries
ago by Mamanidis, seems to me to be apt and fitting.
The eternal Providence has appointed me to watch over the
life and death of all diye creatures. May I always
(28:21):
see in the patient a fellow creature in pain, and
grant me strength and opportunity always to extend the domain
of my craft. This is the prayer of the Physician.
It is ages old, yet to day it is as
new as the hope for a peaceful way of life
for all the world. And now may we invite you
to listen again next week at the same time when
(28:44):
Shanley Laboratories presents Yellow Jack, starring Ronald Coleman, a great
star in a great story. Good Night, A.
