''You see, | have little news to
write this time. Perhaps this room
has something to do with it. 1t is
about as quiet here now as it would be
in refined boiler factory-this is
church army hut. One wounded Tom

a hundred others shouting and buying
cigarettes, chocolates, biscuits and tea
at the counter.
Perhaps you think we do not have
time for much but work. Well, let
me tell you of our introduction of
American football in France. For two
weeks between conveys and evacs. the
sanitary squad has been out practicing
its plays under the leadership of Babe
Calm, late star midget wonder of the
University of Chicago football team.
Other members of this famous squad
are: Griffin, ex-Chicago u athlete;
Gordon McCracken, of Lewis Institute
Bill Singleton, Chicago; C. Anderson,
Northwestern, and many others. Some
of the members of the Quartermaster'
department of Base IL, who played the
sanitary squad yesterday are: Sgt.
Stan Furbeck, one of Oak Parks for.
mer stars; Mckenzie, N. U. Law
school, and several others from North
western. You see, we had fairly good
material.
"The match was scheduled several
days ahead. and consequently on Sun
day at 2.30 p. m. there was crowd of
about 1000 spectators, patients, nurses
and men, assembled as cosmopolitan
a bunch as one ever saw. Everyone
was curious to see what kind Of
game American football was. The
first half was hard fought, ending 90.
The sanitary squad scored the first
touchdown in the third quarter. The
quartermaster's department followed
in the last quarter with two touch
dows. No goals were made, the game
ending IL to 6. You sure would have
enjoyed it, if you could have seen the
game. Ten minute quarters were
played. One veteran Tommy, who had
come down, wounded for the fifth time
and who had scars of battle all over
him, said, 'Blime me. don't want to
play that game. It's too rough

I'VE were each given an extra
blanket Saturday, personal gift for
the enlisted men of this unit, from
Mrs. Whitelaw Reid. Believe your
humble servant, the gift is much ap-
preciated these cold nights. We now
have three blankets and straw mat
tress to keep us warm. Our overcoats
make good addition.
That's all the news this time, ex.
cept that the moon is bright and the
eventful part of the month is here.
You know we like the dark and rainy
nights here, and not the moon, for
dark nights are far, far safer for us"

To make a city great it must have all lines cared for, in order to bring the people to market Little Rock is super-great, because it has everything any man is looking any man is looking for. Little Rock is equipped with the best in every department, which but adds to it's glory.
 No city is complete without chem ist of renown, and Little Rock claims distinction in that direction through the proud possession of Dr. Wm. F. Manglesdorf.
 Dr. Manglesdorf is an adopted son of the South, and so cultured and ceur- teous is he that were he not to men tion the fact, one would suspect him of being of Southern parentage. He was born in Rock Island, H., and af- ter attending the public schools of that city, moved on to Fort Wayne, Ind, and from there to Chicago, to complete his education.
 While still lad, Dr. Mangfesdorf decided that some day he would be a doctor ,and for seven years he worked during the days and attended school at night, specializing in studies which you'd thoroughly equip him for the medical profession.
 Fourteen years ago Dr. Manglesdorf came South, and attended the old Memphis College of Medicine. where he earned degree in chemistry. Later Dr. Manglesdorf came to Little Rock and attended the Medical De partment of the University of Arkan- sas, graduating in medicine there.
 After becoming physician, Dr. Manglesdorf continued his chemical research, and for three years was in charge of the laboratories of the Col lege of Physicians and Surgeons. For the past six years he has been at the head of the Little Rock Laboratories,

ROLAND DEPUTY
 MADE AN ARREST
A. c. PEN0EReRAss, A WHITE MAN, ADMITTED THAT HE HAD STOLEN A BICYCLE
 IN LITTLE ROCK.

Owing to his strange actions and to flat tire on a bicycle which he was riding, A. c. Pendergrass, white, was arrested Saturday by Deputy Sheriff A. L. Clay of Roland, on suspicion. Upon being questioned about the own- ership of the wheel, Pendergrass ad- mitted he had stolen it in Little Rock and later confessed of being an es- cape from the Kansas Penitentiary at Lansing Awaiting the arrival of of ficers of Lansing he was placed in the county jail.
The Pulaskian., 1917-01-05

which are more commonly known as the Manglesdorf Laboratories.
 Dr. Manglesdorf can qualify as an expert in any company, and so success full has been his work that he has now the largest business of any chemist In Arkansas, and is forced to employ several assistants. Among his clients are the large corporations of the state who must have work done that is ac- curate. Most physicians of the state, when in need of chemical analyses, call on Dr. Manglesdorf. He serves the State of Arkansas and also the trunk line railroads which operate in it.
 Dr. Manglesdorf is chemist and bae- teriologist for the Hot Springs Water Company, chemist for the Choctaw Di- vision of the Rock Island railway; chemist and pathologist for the Iron Mountain railroad. and has only re- gently been appointed as chemist for the Cotton Belt
 Most prosecuting attorneys and court officials of the state send to Dr. Manglesdorf their specimens when there is suspicion that poison has been used in sudden deaths. This forces him often into court as an expert wit ness, for in most of the specimens submitted to him, poison has been dis covered. He also is called upon quite frequently to examine heads of dogs which are suspected of having been afflicted with rabies.
 Dr. Manglesdorr IS prominent so- cially in Little Rock, as well as in a business way He is member of the Rotary Club, a Scottish Rite Mason, and member of the Little Rock Temple of the Mystic Shrine.
 Chemists, like many other things, are born, and Dr. Manglesdorf appears to be born chemist
