HAIL TO DICKINSON!

THE Transcript wishes to acknow-
I ledge receipt Of the Dickinson
College Bulletin of Feb. 1918 containing
its commencement program for May
1913. which is earlier and blefer be-
cause of war conditions, and its noble
Honor Roll of patriots who like their
brave forebears of 1861 are dropping
their books to take up the rifle at the
call of their country.
A very creditable roster it is Of 300
names in which quality and rank are
especially noteworthy, including as it
does, 2 Bishops of the M. E. Church
doing Y. NJ. C. A. work in France;
Major General; 6 Majors; 2 Colonies;
l Sgt. Major; Lieutenant Colonies;
Is Captains; SO LIST Lieutenants; 80 I'd
Lieutenants, besides many sergeants
and a goodly representation IN the
medical, aviation and signal corps.
This is superb showing for "Old
Dickinson fondly remembered by the
writer who spent in its classic halls hve
halcyon days of his young manhood and
stated his bookisb thirst for knowledge
and his young ambition to stand prlmus
inter pares.

WHAT A GREAT BATTLE MEANS

When 100000 soldiers are in action,
the wounded will number approximate
ly 10000 and major and minor oper-
atoms will be necessary upon about 10,
900 of them. while 5000 men will re-
quire medical attention
This gives an idea of the work sudden
~ thrown upon an army medical SER
vice in battle such as has been rag
ing in France, only instead of 10000
men in action there are around l ZOO, 600
engaged. The Red Cross, therefore, is
not exaggerating when it tells Ameri-
can women that surgical dressings can
not be oversupplied.
The United States army medical SER
vice now has turned over to the Red
Cross the task of supplying our army
with surgical dressings. The army
will furnish the materials and the
women will do the work, according to
specifications made by the work, &C
cordlng to specifications made by the
army. 1t is fine compliment to Red
Cross workers.
One surgeon in the course of seven or
eight hours will use between 300 and 400
packets Of surgical dressings, or from
1890 to $500 individual dressings.
Multiply this by the hundreds and thou
sands OF surgeons working at top
speed in great battle and still further
emphasis is given to the statement
that an over-supply is improbable
Nearly all the wounded recover. The
percentage of wounded who recover in
this war is higher than in any other war
because aid is given promptly.
