Minneapolis, after which he completed an academic course at the University of

degree. He next spent a year as interne at the Minneapolis General Hospital and
later was for two years associated with Dr. C. J. Ringnell, a well known surgeon
of this city. He then went abroad, taking postgraduate work in Berlin, Germany,
and Vienna, Austria, the leading medical centers of Europe, and has since
engaged in practice in Minne­apolis. He specializes in surgery. He is chief of
the surgical staff of the municipal division of the Minneapolis General Hospital
and is also one of the surgeons attached to the Swedish Hospital, while he
likewise has a large private practice. He has devoted much time to study,
research and investigation and has written numerous articles for the leading
medical journals of the country.
In 1899 Dr. Moren was united in marriage to Miss Delphine Tuscany of this city,
and they have become the parents of four daughters: Mae Delphine, Jane
Christine, Virginia and Dorothy. Dr. Moren is a prominent Mason, having taken
