In the European War But Are
Not Given Full Recognition
in the War News.

Correspondence Of Associated Press.
PARIS. Nov. Observation-Disclosures
Ing much that has already been re-
corded of them, the ambulance dogs
have not yet been given full recogni-
ton for the part they are playing in
the war, say the dog lovers.
Through the courtesy of DR.. Kress-
er OF the National Society Of Ambu-
lance Dogs, The Associated Press has
been shown dozen letters from army
surgeons and soldiers telling in in
teresting detail some Of their intelli-
gent and courageous feats. First, dis
cussing the general usefulness Of the
dog in field ambulance work, DR..
Kresser said this usefulness had be-
come, greater in proportion to the de-
lyelopment Of modern methods Of war
fare.
The infaptryman today does his
fighting from the grounu under any
cover he can find, y he said, Creeping
through thickets, hiding in bitches,
behind hedges. and every spot that Is
likely to conceal him from the enemy.
Naturally the same cover hides him
from the view Of the stretcher bear
ers picking up the wounded after the
battle.
This duty is further complicated
by the fact that 1t must be done at
night, as the intensity Of fire makes
II impossible to pick up wounded on
the field during an engagement. In
this work of seeking the wounded at
night the ambulance dog becomes in
dispensable, since lights are forbid
den to the stretcher bearers for fear
OF exposing positions to the enemy;
consequently the salvation of hun
dreds Of wounded soldiers depends
upon the sharp scent, intelligence and
devotion Of the ambulance dog.
