BATTLES LEAVE STRAIN
ON FACES OF SOLDIERS

Berlin-Prof. Ludwig Schleich, one
IT Germany's prominent medical men,
has just published a report of his OBJ
servations after several months work
at the front and in military hospitals in
various parts Of Germany. He dwells
particularly on the psychological eff
feet of the strain Of modern battle on
the private soldier.
There is frequently" he observes, "a
strange, almost awful, look in the faces
of those who nave been in battle. They
are still willing soldiers, some of them
eager to get back to the trenches, but
the more highly civilized a man is, the
deeper his feelings, the more does he
bear that indelible something in his
face, the sign that he has seen terrible
things.
Physically those ooldiers nay be hard
as iron, says Professor Schleich, but
psychically they are not intact. The
officers nearly always develop an un-
canny, marble, staring look, as though
they had grown accustomed to look
unshudderingly at the terrors n DESC
lating orgies of destruction, and finally
felt that their eyes had become a mir
ror Of the horrible. 1t is as though the
claws of a demon had seized their
faces and made their eyes sink deeper
into their hollows. They are all
changed, they have seen the head OF
the Gorgon in the region of night"

the spectators-oh, that fancy bay

the women leave; their faces are

No, the city has little appetite for
gaiety: 1t is gripping realities. A
myriad poignant needs keep Paris
busy. And as the trained nurse in the

New Use For tho subsoiI Plow.

There has beer endless discussion
