November 2, 1927 Dr* George Guest, Children's Hosp., 300 Longwood "ve *, toston. Maos* Dear Georges I am more than happy to know that you are coming to Cincinnati early next year* I found it out as soon as I returned from my vacation and intended to write you at once and tell you how happy I am that you are coming. I think you will like it here very much, and I am sure that you will like Mitchell. In spite of the fact that he is very busy and will undoubtedly have an enormous amount of clinical work to be done, I bellove that he will do everything in his power to give you an effort to do research work* I would certainly not advise you to oppose his wishes in any way, but if you wish to do much in the way of research you will have to start right that means that you must not allow yourself to be drawn into tod much clinical work. You will find all of your time taken with it and you will have no way of escape* I am sorry that we missed you last spring when you were here* We certainly were having a good time at that time* **e had a splendid trip in Europe and managed to see a great deal. Much that we saw was superfluous, probably, but very interesting, and I am anxious to go again as soon us the opportunity presents itself. * I hope that you will send me a reprint of _your article on Carbohydrate Metabolism in Lead Poisoning as soon as you get it, and if you have any intention of continu ing your work in lead when you come here I shall be delighted to give you every possible assistance. I shall not mako an attempt to chat with you by correspondence, but I will look very keenly to the time when you come on tp work with us here. I believe that the opportunities for really doing things are not excelled anywhere in the United States. I think that the younger group here, in the course of a few years, are going to have an opportunity to show what they can do - that should be all that they need* My very kindest regards t- McKhann and to Joe Frieberg, and to yourself my very best wishes* Sincerely, RAXiEJ ---------------------------- N22024
