WHAT A PHYSICIAN
SAW AT GETTYSBURG.

AS one of the physicians work
ing with the Red Cross organization,
l lived and worked among the Scouts
during the week of the encampment,
and the conviction deepens with re-
Election that one of the most remark
able things of all was the manner in
which the Boy Scouts of America vim
dicated their motto; they showed
that they are prepared, and, at
Gettysburg, at any rate, they dem
onstrated their preparedness by de-
livering the goods. They were called
into service, went into camp, execut-
ed their duties under detail to many
strange and temporary commanders,
and performed innumerable services
of helpfulness on their own initiative,
and in all circumstances they were
a credit to their organization and to
their country.
"The real inside explanation Of
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1913-08-15

the low mortality among the veter-
ans at Gettysburg is simply that
they were not permitted to suffer
from confusion, uncertainty, over
exertion and overheating. And here
is where the Scouts did the business;
they were the boys who found the
way to quarters in the dark, who car
ried the luggage, showed the old fell
lows how to ventilate the tents,
where to find water, where to draw
blankets, where to find mess, and car
ried on their young shoulders just
that portion of the burden of living
that would have been an overload
for the old soldiers.
cat the Red Cross Aid Stations,
situated here and there on the bat
tlefield at points where the old sold
iers would be most apt to congregate
and fight it over again, very import
ant service was rendered by giving
water, rest in the shade, and such
medical attention as was requisite.
But it was the Scouts who bore
the litters, and rustled for water,
finding in true Scout style the best
sources, and carrying the heavy pals
often for a mile or more to the sta
tions. And it was the Scouts who
did guard duty and protected the
property of the stations during the
nights; no little responsibility that!
The stations were lonely spots at
night, far from the village and camp,
and army blankets are much coveted
souvenirs! Thus from the first pail
full of water at the Aid Stations to
the departure of the train that bore
both doctors and Scouts to their
homes, the Red Cross organization
depended on the boys. For all the
careful provisions made by the Army,
and the State of Pennsylvania, and
the Red Cross, the railroads fell
down; and during the whole hour of
delay in which a mass of veterans
seethed in the boiling sun like mil
ling herd, while a train was leisurely
made up to take them away, much of
the good effects of the protective care
provided in the camp was undone,
and the old men dropped exhausted.
But the Scouts were waiting, too, and
they gathered the vets up and car
ried them to the ambulances and
then dashed back to their train for
home!
"The unanimous sentiment of the
Red Cross doctors was regret that
there were no Scouts when they
were boys, and that their own sons
should surely be Scouts!"
