Ten Wards in Hospital.

The hospital, which is under the COM
mand of Mai. J. c. Bowman. is main
tanning ten separate wards for the
treatment of all kinds of illnesses. 1so-
lation wards for measles. mumps, tu-
berculosis and other diseases are also
maintained It is said here by medical
men of high rank that this field hos
pital has done more in the way of car
ing for patients than any field hospital
since the days of the civil war.
At a conference of the stan officers
here it was decided to designate OFF,
cially the 29th Division the Blue
and Gray Division" 1t was so named
because of the fact that troops from
both the north and the south are in
cluded in it's makeup, a thing which is
perhaps true of no other National
Guard or National Army division in the
country.

AMERICAN FIELD HEADQUARTERS
IN FRANCE. September 25. tdelayed).-
United States Army airmen. whether in
jured in action or in training, will regain
their health in beautifully situated French
chateaux and enjoy opportunities for con-
valescence. according to the plan OF Au-
gustus Post, secretary OF the Aero Club
Of America, who has been delegated TO
the clubs foreign service committee here.
He counts upon the cooperation OF Frank
S. Last. an eminent aeronaut now in
America. to encourage the donation OF the
use Of numerous chateaux owned in
France by Americans or leased from
French owners by Americans who are in
terested in the plan to make the efficiency
Of the United States air forces in France
reach high point.
Mental Poise Important Factor.
1T is the belief of the military COM
mands of all the allies that an air.
mans mental poise is an important
factor in the effectiveness OF his serv-
ice. After an aviator has been wounded
in a fight aloft or has suffered from
the shock of bad landing his nerves
need special attention. He requires
good spirits more than any other SOL
dier in order that the best results may
be obtained. Commanding the craie
he pilots, his activity is dependent
largely upon his personal initiative,
even when flying in squadron forma-
ton. Pilots to maintain their dash and
daring have to have extreme relaxation
when on leave. Sometimes this results
in dissipation, which. while serving the
purpose IN fashion. ultimately weak
ems the morale.

CAMP MCCLELLAN, ANNISTON. Ala,
September 2S.-A special group of Off
GERS from the Medical Corps is here
at work with the troops of the 29th
Division, examining every man for
traces of tuberculosis or heart ailment.
This detail is one of the many who will
have look at the boys from the Dis
trict of Columbia and several states be-
fore they go abroad. There will be
psychiatrists and other specialists sent
here for special tests later, and before
any man can be included in the over
seas forces he must yet pass through
numerous tests at the hands of experts
in various lines of medical profession
tuberculosis specialists have been taken
into the Medical Reserve Corps and are
being sent to the big camps all over
the country to make these tests. and
they are vested with limitless powers.
insomuch that their recommendations
are absolutely binding and must be re-
spected.
Can't. Charles Merrill is the senior
officer of the detail of physicians mere

to detecting symptoms of such disor-

Health at Camp Good.
The health at Camp Mcclellan is good.
Sick returns from every organization IN
the entire camp. covering every nature
of illness and injury, show that there
has been to cate an average SICK return
of $40 per cent of the men in the
camp.
on the face of the thing this figure
means little to the average layman not
familiar with the method OF entering
sick reports. But when it is taken INTO
consideration that less than two men
out of every 100 in the camp are given
medical attention of any nature what
ever in the course of day; "hen IL is
understood that every scratch Whlch a
soldier receives and every time ne asks
for a pill for a headache it is entered
on the reports, the remarkably health
full condition here is more fully appre-
ciated.
Anything under . per cent is regarded
as very good in any camp. 1t IS more
notably good here because OF the condi-
tions that might. easily contribute to
higher rate. The figure spec!hed Is an
average daily return since the arrival
of the troops here. Naturally men
coming into a very hot climate such as
this from the more northern states
were somewhat affected, and wherever
there is vast development under way
with its attendant hard work and rough
work the percentage of injuries. both
great and small. is bound to be some
what above what would exist under
ordinary circumstances.

low on the planks of a bridge. The

which groaned and thrashed in the hur-
