Sanitary baths are the great need.
The condition of soldiers coming from
the trenches for their two or three
days relief, is often unspeakable. The
men frequently stood in mud and
water above the waist. Sleep is inn

Some of these baths are already in
operation, having been donated byl
Americans. An American flag is
painted upon the tank. on which is
also placed plate with the name Of
the donor, or the city from which it !
came, which ever is preferred.
In the regiments where these baths !
are IN use. diseases have almost been
eliminated. and the mental and physi- |
cal condition OF the men so wonder !
fully improved. that when wounded. |
their chances for recovery have been
doubled. The appeal from France is /
for one hundred baths.
