MEDICAL LESSONS OF THE WAR.

When the European war broke out, medical
men all over the world were interested from q
scientific standpoint. They realized that the
most advanced surgical methods would be fol
lowed on the battle-line and in the base hos
pitfalls and the effect of modern practice on NOR
tally was eagerly awaited.
An Associated Press despatch from London
says that surgery upon the battlefield, accord
ing to well known physician, DR.. Ziegelroth,
is becoming more and more matter of .'back
to nature" The doctors, military and civil,
who are tending the wounded in the west are
discovering, not without some surprise, how
potent factor nature is in healing wounds.
Amputations are resorted to only in cases of
utmost necessity, and surgeons are acting with
the greatest conservatism where. previously
limbs were severed quickly when certain symp-
toms appeared. The conservatism appears to
be rewarded by recoveries that ordinarily
would have been considered impossible. Ordi-
nary wounds are dressed with antiseptic ban
dages, and then are not rebound any more than
necessary. The healing is being left to efficient
nature. II
The civil practitioners in the western field,
according to DIR. Ziegelroth, are engaged in a
friendly but spirited contest with the military
physicians, and are giving extraordinary ser
vice. Men who in ordinary life have a "golden
practice are enduring all the hardships of the
field without murInur, and good-humoredly
contest for bundles of straw upon which to
sleep in barns and stables. The snoring of fell
low physicians seemsto bother them more than
the artillery fire.

THE FIGHT ON WOOD.

Chairman II. p. Wood Of the Hawaii Fair
Commission has forwarded his resignation from
San Francisco to Governor Pinkham, according
to topographic ;ldvircS from the coast.
While nothing definite is known regarding
the resignation, it i, entirely probable that
Chairman Wood has placed his resignation at
the governors disposal because of the yelled
attacks here in Hawaii against him and the
commissions work.
If that is the case. the Star Bulletin hopes
| Governor Pinkham will decline to accept the
resignation and will tell Mr. Wood to keep right
on with the job. Otherwise the governor will
be fitting in with the scheme to Dust Mr.. Wood
from the commission and from the Hawaii Pro
motion Committee And we don't believe Gov
ernor Pinkham wants to fit in with any such
scheme.
It's fractional scheme, its personal fight,
and it is directed at Mr.. Wood in his absence.
AS an illustration of the manner in which the
fight is being waged, it is sufficient to say that
some members of the Hawaii Promotion Com
mittee didn't want "anything said in the
papers" about the attempt in that committee
to get Woods official head The Star Bulletin
declined to be party to any such arrangement
for secrecy. The Promotion Committee is a
public body, supported by public funds, and it
should be as open as the day.
The fight against Wood as chairman of the
fair commission is waged on about the same
basis. Perhaps it will worry him into quitting.
But it should not and the community should not
allow it to do So Mr.. Wood has worked hard
and for many years for Hawaii and the unsatis-
factory conditions in the Promotion Committee
are far frim being solely his fault.
