HOW THE R. A. m. C.
is PRESERVING HEALTH
OF THE BRITISH SOLDIERS

Health regulations and sanitary or
the refuse must be burned; even
tin cans In which there had been
food, must be put into the fire. The
germ chase was conducted regardless
of expense, regardless of trouble. In
cidentally, the latest order to the SOL
diers is kill every fly on sight"
The R. A. NJ. c. men go into the
trenches, too, in their germ hunt.
The trench soldiers are instructed
how to live sanitarily; how to build
toilet rooms as sanitary as those in
London dwelling: how to burn the
remnants of their hurried trench
meals.
1 found the Canadian branch of the
R. A. NJ. c., established in an old
French prison. They had fought the
germs out of it; they had white
washed the ancient walls; the great
yard, a mud hole in winter, was as
spick and span as a garden. 1t look
ed like Spotless Town.
All through the British zone found
lighthouses. Some times they were
factory buildings. or linen mills. My
chief impression, during my trips be-
hind the British line, is of groups Of
soldiers, with towels around their
necks, swinging along a road either
toward or from some bath house.
Clean socks. clean underwear and
insectless uniforms are given to
them when they tumble out Of the
vats or tubs.
1t fights tiredness too, and strain
ed nerves. 1 don't know how many
convalescent hospitals there are in
the British lines. I've been in not
a few of them. They are always big

Headquarters of British Army, Nor
thern France, April 29.-(By Mail to
New York)-"How shall we distri-
butte them to the soldiers Sir?" ask
ed an officer who came up during my
conversation with the director of med
fcal services.
1T doesn't make so much differ
ence what channel we turn them in
to just SO the soldiers get them, "
answered the director.
We've just found a simple appa-
ratus for our soldiers to wear that
will save them from the German gas
es," said he. "The point is to get
them distributed as quickly as pos
sible"
The health of Gen. French's great
army in France and Flanders is in
the hands of the head of the Royal
Army Medical Corps. and it is as
much in the duty of the R. A. NJ. C.
to save the soldiers from German
pneumonia" as the gas poison is now
being called by the British soldiers,
as it is to save them from typhoid
fever. Within only few hours of
the time that the first word came
that the Germans were using gas the
r. A. M. c. had taken up the task
of meeting the new situation. Its
doctors were out on the firing line,
studying the symptoms of the poison
ing; its motor laboratories we're ex-
perimenting with gases and antido-
tes.
The R. A. NJ. C.'s duty is not only
10 keep the soldiers healthy but to
take care Of them when they are sick
or wounded. Every town in the Brit
ish zone in France was made scien-
tifcally sanitary. In many towns
street cleaning forces made thorough
fares and yards. houses and even an
eient castles and chateaus as germ
less as possible. The R. A. M. G.
forces pursue germs as II they were
the kaiser's army. Soldiers had
. bout at R. A. NJ. c. orders; colonels
and generals and all the other high
Aolls had to follow r. A. NJ. G. or
ders. The medical man was supreme
n his own fighting zone.

came to Colorado in 1879 with the

Fairbanks became its pioneer preach
er; being the first minister of the
gospel to make his home in the then
frontier town. He was instrumental
in the establishment of the first
Methodist church there and was its
pastor for a long period. AS an timer
ant he preached at Grand Junction and
Delta he was well known for his re-
ligious zeal and enterprise among the
people OF that section of the state.
After the accomplishment of much
good as a religious teacher at Mont
rose he resigned his ministry there
and engaged in ranching; business
for which. he says. he had no special
aptitude and no particular liking. Rev.
and Mrs. Fairbanks first came to Can
on City in 1898 and made their home
here for a short time when they went
to Pueblo, where they lived for a cou-
pie of years. From Pueblo they went
back to the western slope and again
made their home in Montrose. In
1909 they returned to this city and
have resided here ever since. They
are most estimabie people and stand
high in the affection of all who know
them.
The Fairbanks family came to the
United States from England in 1888
and has a numerous personnel in the
New England and the Middle states.
A complete genGalogy has been
kept by the family historian and
there are now in different parts of
the country, six hundred and nifty
families bearing the name of Fair
banks and among their members are
distinguished representatives OF the
professional and business life OF the
republic.
Rev. A. ID. Fairbanks has been for
many years a close student OF the
Bible and few men have attained by
their own study and researches. a
clearer insight into the scriptures and
their revelations than he. In 1910
Rev. Fairbanks wrote and published
"The Second Coming Of Christ" re-
garded by authorities as one OF the
best and most comprehensive books
on the subject ever penned.. II has
been given high praise and encomium
by ministers and laynen and is look
ed upon as a valuable addition to cur
rent biblical literature.
Among the nonresident guests ex-
pected at the golden wedding jubilee
this evening are Mrs. Z. A. Taplin Of
Greeley; Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Odell

condition in Logan, we have helps in
the enforcement of liquor legislation
that were little dreamed of forty
years ago.
The difficulty that some of our pro
hibition states have had because wet
states could ship liquor into dry
states has led recently to the pass
age of federal law known as the
Webb Kenyon law, this law passed by
Congress which has jurisdiction in
matters pertaining to interstate com
merce, prohibits a common carrier
from bringing liquor into dry state
contrary to a state law.
In states where the prinslple Of
local option prevails some cities have
had difficulty from the fact that wet
cities could ship their liquor into dry
cities when there was no state legis.
lature to interfere.
In Utah the last legislature passed
what is known as the Funk bill which
prohibits common carriers from
bringing liquor into dry territory
within the state.
1t is obvious that these legislative
acts give Logan City a power for
the enforcement Of prohibition laws
which she did not dream Of when
Moses Thatcher was getting his ex.
perience with dives, ETC.. between
