One Of the most unique and inter-

Of campaign is the importance of the
tasks assigned to the doctors. Maj
Louis Livingstone Seamon of the Unit
cd States army says in his recently
published book: "The medical officer
is omnipresent. You will find him in
countless places where in an Ameri-
can CT British army he has no place.
He is as much at the front as in the
rear. He Is with the screen OF the
scouts with his microscope and chemi-
calls, testing and labelling wells so that
the army to follow shall drink no con-
taminated water. When the scouts
reach a town he Immediately insti-
tutes a thorough examination of its
sanitary condition and if contagion or
Injection is found he quarantines and
places a guard around the dangerous
district. Notices arc posted so that
the approaching column is warned
and no soldiers are billeted where
danger exists. Microscopic blood tests
are made in all fever cases and bac-
