     ERNEST H. STREIT, M. D.  During the past ten years Dr. Ernest H. Streit 
has steadily advanced in the ranks of the medical profession in Portland and 
today is regarded as one of its representative members, enjoying a wide 
reputation for his exact knowledge and skill and commanding an extensive 
practice. The Doctor was born in Phillipps, in the province of Quebec, Canada, 
in 1886, and when about a year old accompanied his parents, John W. and Linda 
(Wheeler) Streit, on their removal to Portland, where his father engaged in 
the real estate business. He is now deceased, while the mother still resides 
in this city.

      Ernest M. Streit attended the public schools and Hill Military Academy, 
from which he was graduated. He matriculated in Jefferson Medical College, at 
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and won the degree of Doctor of Medicine in 1912. 
He served as interne in St. Vincent's Hospital, in Portland, and Letterman 
General Hospital in San Francisco, and in 1918 entered upon the practice of 
his profession in Portland. He possesses to a marked degree the essential 
qualities of the successful physician and his career has been marked by 
tireless and conscientious devotion to his life work.

     In 1920 Dr. Streit was united in marriage to Miss Lela Yerex, who was 
born and reared in Portland and completed her education in St. Helen's Hall. 
They have two children, Fraser and Jack Hamilton, who are attending the public 
schools. Doctor Streit is a member of the Portland Academy of Medicine, the 
Multnomah County Medical Society and the Oregon State Medical Society, and is 
held in high regard among his professional brethren.
