Essentially the state journal is the tie that binds. It is the visible thread that runs from one corner of the state to the other. It is the only such ligature. It is an opinion medium for legislative, medicolegal, organizational, economic, and administrative topics. It is the officers' way of reaching the membership; and it is the members' way of letting the officers know what they-the members-think. It is a portable bulletin board for telling the readers what's going on. Without this liaison among members, their esprit-de-corps, their feeling of professional identification, and their sense of organizational identity might well atrophy.
