WOMEN MASSAGE CORPS
IN MILITARY HOSPITALS

London, Dec. 13.-The massage
corps which Mr.. and Mrs. Almeric
Paget started with SO members at
the beginning of the war has now
increased to 700. all of whom are
women. The idea of women mas
seuses in military hospitals was re-
ga; dcd in the beginning by many
army men as doubtful experiment.
But so efficient has been the work
of these women that the various
provincial hospitals are now visited,
and all of the wounded in need of
massage can have treatment. Be-
sides visiting the hospitals. the
CORPS runs elaborate massage and
electrical departments in the con-
vaiescent camps. Electric massage
machines, ovens for the application
of radiant heat and various kinds Of
apparatus loosen up stiffened joints
and put life into atrophied members.
After few days, men who come on
