American physicians and surgeons

war. The publication states that the
war clouds are rising ominously out
/ of the sea, and states that it would be
we'll for physicians and surgeons to
give the matter thought and to act ac-
cordingly. The Record. in part says:
with the war clouds rising so omi-
| uously out of the sea il is the duty
of every American physician to take
thought how he can best serve his
country in the deplorable case that
hostilities become unavoidable. No

@Those physicians already in the

the profession, recent graduates per.

older physicians who have no one de-

70 Inc makeup o. the FI1e team that
will be sent TO the national match
at Jacksonville, Florida, next October
Is of course the main subject of in.
terest and speculation among the
guardsmen. According to the provi-
sions OF the competition this year
there are several men who probably
could make the team who will not get
a chance to go, the rules requiring
that at least so per cent of the shoot
ing members of the team be men who
have never before taken part in a ma
tional or divisional match.
Fifteen men are taken along as com.
petitors, there being IL shooting mem.
bers and three alternates. Ii is fig
ured that at least eight of these will
be new men, which would allow for
two substitutions should men be TAX
en- III, and still put six new shooting
members on the team. Unless this is
done, the entire team is disqualified.
With probably only seven old-timers
to go, there will be some tall compe-
tition among the crack shots of the
guard There are probably Is expert
rifiemen who have shot on former
teams who have chance to be of the
lucky six or seven, and when cOmpeti-
ton for places actually commences,
every bullet fired will carry the hopes
and fears of the man behind the butt
plate.

Sanely Sensational

Harold Begbie. an author rather better
known in England than in this country
has written in "Milstone" George II.
Doran Company, New York;, what his
American publishers are pleased to term
'sanely sensational novel" Whether
II deserves either the adverb or the adjec-
tive is altogether according to the point
Of view. The story deals very frankly
with the subject of white slavery. En-
tire frankness Is undoubtedly needed IN
successfully graphing with this most
fearful of modern social problems, but
whether this frankness should be car
ried to the point of revolving horror par
ticularly in a ''sanely sensational novel,
iss at least open to question. MT Begple
has seen At to lay one of the scenes OF
his story in this country. Undoubtedly
he has fortified himself with facts 10
support his assertion. but the implication
that the hideous evil has reached such
proportions that in New York and other
American cities 1t now includes the sys-
tematized kidnapping of children OF ten
der years is too far-fetched TO pe
credited. The author insists that he has
not exaggerated, but II is sometimes very
easy to convince oneself that an isolated
case is a typical case. Another revolving
incident of the story deals with aristo-
cratic life, so that 1t is not possible to
accuse Mr.. Begbie of being swayed pS
natural antipathy. But in this case, also
he appears to have been betrayed into
| more or less unconscious eNaggeratlon
| despite his protestations.

Robert Lafayette, an old friend, had

Robert had gossiped about the latest rob-
berry, a pendant of black pearls that
had been stolen at dinner the night
before.
Then-Gilbert shivered as he thought
of it-Jenkins, his man, had gone to n
drawer for cravat. He lifted out half
a dozen for Gilbert to choose, when some-
thing dropped to the floor. Robert picked
IL up and laid 1t quietly on a table. "Do-
ing some detective work on the quiet are
you, old feflow?" he had remarked
lightly, and Gilbert had felt that the
words were chosen to let him down easy.
"Where on earth did that darn thinG

quired. But Jenkins didn't know. Gill
bert was puzzled about the whole thing.
