A TRIUMPH or MEDICAL SCIENCE

One Of the most striking evidences Of
the efficiency of the medical department
of the army in the Philippines slcs the
Army and Navy Journal appears in the
record of its work in treating dysouterv
IS in other wars. this disease has been
a grave peril in the Philippines where It
has caused many deaths and hundreds of
cases Of total dsa bility among the Ameri.
can troops. Yet IL spite Of climatic ani
other conditions which render the disease
exceptionally virulent and deadly the
medical departm ent has almost complete
~ eradicated It, This extraordinary result
has been accomplished through the vigil
ant enforcement of sanitary measures re-
curing that all drinking water shall lie
boiled, that men shall wash their hands
before handling articles Of food and that
the utmost care shall be taken to prevent
the infection of towels and table linen
Because of this wise prec autionary policy
dysentery has almost disappeared from
the army stations in the archipelago and
results almost as marked have been ac-
complished in treating typhoid fever. The
record is one which has never been sur
passed by the medical authorities of an
army of white men in a tropical cam
pagn.
