He Served Six Months as a
Medical Captain.
SAYS ENGLISH ARE EFFICIENT
TOmmies Are Real SpOrtSmen
and Hard Fighters.
Few Able Bodied Men Seen on
London Streets.

The horrors of war, the manned
human grist turned out by the merci-
less battle, the attitude of England
toward America, the increased eff
cheney of the British war machine,
the wonderful progress of war sur
gerry in re-making shell-torn and
shattered men-all these things and
many others are indelibly stamped on
the memory of DIR. A. B. Jeffrey, of
Topeka DIR. Jeffrey returned home
Thursday after six months service
in an English base hospital, thirteen
miles from London.
Altho he had been made a captain
in the Royal Medical Corps, he re-
turned to America for rccuperation
and to do what he can to help Uncle
Sam in his part of the war.
DIR. Jeffrey tells of the change in
Englands attitude toward the war in
general during the time he spent in
that country. He says that when he
first went to England. that country
was surprised and grieved that Amer
lea did not see fit to enter the war.
She felt she was fighting our battle,
and as circumstances have since
shown, this was true.
When U. S. Got In.
But when we entered the war, the
greatest change of feeling took place.
The day we entered was England's
flag day, ana from all the HOuSelOpS
and towers the American flag was
flown alongside the Union Jack For
the first time in history the flag of
another nation was raised over the
House of Parliament with the Union
Jack.
When Doctor Jeffrey first reached
England, he could not see that the
Englishman was denying himself the
least. But when Germany started to
increase her submarine activities, the
strictest kind of economy was in
voked.
America should realize the vast
amount of territory that has been
patrolled by the English fleet, the
fact that she has kept the English
channel open before we criticise her
for the inactivity of her fleet" said
Doctor Jeffrey.
English Army Efficient.
AS for land forces, Doctor Jeffrey
says England is better prepared now
than she has ever been, and that she
has a wonderfully efficient army Her
supply of men is almost gone, how
ever, and she must soon rely on US to
fill up the gaps. France is bled to
death, he stated, and practically every
able bodied man between the ages OF
20 and As years is in the trenches
Men with an eye shot out and other
wise MANNED are being sent back to
the trenches, he declares. One sell
dom sees an able bodied man on the
streets of London these days
DIR. Jeffrey has nothing but praise
