DISTRICT GUARDSMEN
THANKED BY BAKER
Members Of Field Hospital Corps May
Go Back to Border.

Members of the Field Hospital of the
District National Guard who returned
from the border recently were praised
for their work in a communication from
Secretary OF War Newton d. Baker. The
letter reads:
IT wish to thank you and the officers
and men Of your organization, on behalf
OF the government, for the valuable serv-
ices Just rendered to the country by its
presence on the border. When the Ma
tional Guard was called into service OF
the Federal government the lives Of men,
women and children along the southern
frontier were In grave danger, owing to
the formidable bandit raids from the
Mexican side of the boundary. 1t is no;
too much to say that had these raids con-
tinued there was danger Of international
war From the time OF the arrival of the
units Of the National Guard on the border
the raids ceased and the tension between
the two countries began to relax. 1t is
the hope and belief OF the government
that the presence OF the units OF the Ma
tional Guard, together with the units OF
the regular army, on the border and in
Mexico has made possible a peaceful So
lution Of a difficult and threatening prob
lem"
Capt. William B. Hudson, who is in
charge Of the outfit since the resignation
of Maj Charles II. Bowker, said last
night that he was preparing to reorganize
the hospital and recruit It up to fun
strength in order to be ready for another
call to the border.
According to Capt. Hudson. nearly all
the men have lucrative employment and
are suffering no financial trouble as a re-
suit of the trip. About twenty-five of
the men have applied for discharge,
many OF them not wanting to leave their
positions q second time. Ten of the re-
firing members are from out Of town
and enlisted at the first call for the trip.
Capt. C. NJ. Dollman has resigned on
account Of the demands of his practice.

Where tau green sedses spread their

The old duck made her nest,
OF straw, and leaves, and withered grass
And down from her own breast.

little duck, peering out from between her

Then all the little ducklings poked their
