The Mountain Branch.


ITO bind up the Nations wounds, to
care for him who has borne the
battle" "A. Lincoln.
This paradise for disabled volun-
teer veterans, which cost about two
millions of dollars, is located in the
mountains Of East Tennessee (near
Johnson City, on the line Of the
Southern railway, accessible TO all
states south and east of the ROCKY
mountains), has a capacity for about
! 2 900 members. 1t and the Battle
Mountain Sanitarium at Hot Springs,
South Dakota, are the ideal homes of
the ten branches of the National Mil
itary home which the general gov
! eminent has caused to be erected for
| disabled veteran volunteers. The 9th
err eight branches are scattered over
| the country from Maine to Califor-
MIA. but these two are the GROWING
glory of them all Profiting by past
experience in building and by earn
est personal enthusiasm of the men
responsible for their existence, these
two of the ten branches have been
erected on the most modern and sci
entifc principles and they stand to-
day a fitting monument, not only to
their architects, but to their orig1-
majors. Remarkable to say-it was
Colonel A. J. Keller, an eX-Confeder-
ate officer, now leading attorney of
the Black Hills, who was the first to
champion the cause of the Battle
Mountain Branch, and with Messrs.
Martin. Pettigrew and Gamble and
Captain H. e. Palmer, was one of the
real founders. The Mountain Branch:
1t was due solely to the efforts OF
Hon. Walter Preston Brownlow, con-
gresham of East Tennessee, that
the Mountain Branch was founded.
The two named branches are legiti-
mately the only real sanltarlums OF
the whole chain of branches of the
National Home-this, owing to their
| locations located in the Black
Hills at Hot Springs S. D., the other
in the high altitude of the mountains
of North Carolina and East Tennes'
see. All the other branches are sub
jected to the climatical and in some
cases, unhealthy and unpleasant con-
ditions that surround them-heaVy
fogs, extreme cold in winter and ex-
creme hot days and nights in sum-
mer, with no relief, malaria from
marshes, swamps, ETC., contaminated
drinking water from wells and mud
dy rivers, pests, flies, mosquitoes,
fees and bedbugs and, worst of all,
rum shops at the gates. The Noun
tain Branch is rs miles from Bristol,
the nearest to rum shops, and there
is a severe penalty for smuggling or
"boot-legging," as it is called, of al
coholic drinks. A few confirmed
drunkards drift in-but do not stay

Each bed has mattress, springs,
two army blankets, two sheets, a pill
low and a counterpart. By the side
of each bed the member has a locker
in which he keeps his extra clothes,
medicine, stationery, etc. There is
also a large armed chair for each
member to rest in. Many of tbs
members are good genteel gentle
men, belong to the best churches and
lodges and attend both Catholic and
Protestant services each Sunday in
the chapels. Some of our officers:
Colonel Fred. J. Chase, the one
armed veteran, president of the
board of managers, who visits all the
branches, is considerate in matters
appertaining to the comfort and well
being of all the members of the Ma
tional Military Home. Every COM
plant (if any he gives immediate
consideration. No abuses of any
kind are permitted by him. The eff
ficient and painstaking officers now
in charge of the Mountain Branch are
Colonel John P. Smith, Governor; Cy
H. Lyle Treasurer; Major w. T. Err

Captain w. E. F. Milburn, Quarter
master; Captain Kyle M. King, Com

sion to the Mountain Branch will

Blanks are sent to him to fill out and
if worthy he is admitted after but
few preliminary steps. On his arrl
val at the adjutant's Office he is frs
sent to the surgeon for examination
He is then assigned temporarily to
the receiving ward. In day or sc

clothes, shoes, blouse, uniform coat
and overcoat, besides hat and cap
He lays aside his citizen 'duds' ano

wants them. His trunk, suit case
etc., are all stored there, free o.

there is an abundance of hot ano

long for they either kill themselves
by the wood alcohol they get from
the "boot-leggers" or take trans
fer to the Branch where the rum
shops are located. The climatic con-
ditions of the Battle Mountain and OF
the Mountain Branch Homes are
ideal-the Battle Mountain Branch
having in addition, the Hot Spring,
which the native Indians for ages
mast knew. and brought their sick
from ali sections to cure them OF
Understanding chronic diseases. The
Mountain Branch is well adapted for
those suffering from tuberculosis
(consumption), asthma and all affec-
tions of the bronchial tubes, besides
kidney and liver troubles. The wa
ter at the Mountain Branch posses
SEES without doubt, mineral proper
ties-the clearest and finest that
could possibly be found, flowing
from springs of the mountains, pure
and cold, no ice being necessary. EV-
cry one who is or has been connect
ed with the Mountain Branch is glad
that Mr.. Brownlow's efforts were not
in vain. The purposes for which 1t
was founded have not been baffled in
any sense of the word for thousands
of veterans have visited this branch
since it's official opening in 1903.
Many from it's opening are still here
today, having found a comfortable
home and an asylum from outside
worries and cares. To care for the
sick ard destitute ex-sOldiers or to
furnish the homeless ones place OF
rest, has not only been the aim, but
the accomplished purposes of this
splendid institution. Combined with
the most expert medical skill to be
found, there is the invigoraeing at
mosphere of the Smoky Mountains
of North Carolina and East Tennes-
see, and the pure water mentioned
above gurgling out of the rocks at
the foot of the mountains. The
Mountain Branch is located on a res
ervation of 44748 acres and has ac-
commodations for a membership OF
about ewo thousand. There are
about forty buildings for the most
part examples of architectural beau
ty. and so arranged in their relation
to each other as to show harmony OF
plans as we'll as service in the man
ner of convenience. The buildings
and grounds are lighted from an
electric plant, while the buildings
are also heated from the power
house. Ex-Soldiers who find a home
here are called MEMBERS of the in
stitution, so inmates" would be a
misnomer. Each member makes his
own bed, which is done in regulation
style. These beds make very pref
ty sight as they sit in their two long
rows each side of the ward. They
are about four feet apart and all are
spread with spotless linen coverlets

"The Girl | Never Knew"

This little gem, by a member of
the Mountain Branch Home, Tennes-
see, one of several lately from his
pen, shows, under the faded coat of
blue" there's a heart that's true.
Properly attuned, it would make a
popular song:
soft in the solitude of night,
Her fair face comes before my sight
Then fades away like morning dew,
The girl | never knew
A face so strange, and yet so true,
| wonder where, | wonder who;
A hope to seek, love to WOO,
The girl I never knew!
All through the labyrinth of days,
My heart is ever seeking ways
To find the one, the one who's true,
The girl I never knew!

matron or custodian of the dining
room finds him a seat. He is served

of the home between the hours of 6
a. m. and $3.50 p. m. Probably he
will spend an hour in the evening at

On the eve Of another Independ-

following National Greed suggested
by q. Chicago newspaper. by which
the men, women and children Of

ism:
II believe in the United States,
one and indivisible; in her mission
as the champion of humanity--as
the friend of the weak and distress
ed; in the singleness, dignity and
inviOlabiiity Of American citizenship;
In the validity of our national tradi-
ti0ns; in peace with honor; in
friendship with all nations that re-
spect our rights; in entangling ALI
ances with none; in reasonable
preparations for national defense by
sea and land; in Sinking no Bacri-
flee needed to hand down to The fu-
ture tho priceless treasures be-
queathed to us by the past; in the
necessity Of keeping the western
hemisphere free from the intrusions
of European institutions and ambi-
lions; in the capacity of free men
for self-gOvernment; in the love of
homo and country; and In the un-
flinching resolution that govern
ment of the people, for the people
by the people shall not perish from
the earth"
