LUNGS REPAIRED AND
CLEANED BY DELL
CATE OPERATION

Remarkable lung operations
have recently been performed by
Col. Pierre Duval of the French
Reserve Medical Corps, according
to the January Popular Mechanics
Magazine. In describing some of
his work to American army med
ical officers at one Of the south
ern camps a short time ago, he ex-
planned that he enters the chest
cavity by making a six-inch open
ing through the ribs. With the
aid Of forceps he then lifts the
lung through the aperture AMI
lays it On the chest wall. The
bleeding blood vessels are tied,
the outer surface of the organ
cleaned, and the tracts swabbed
out with gauze. Torn pieces Of
the organ have been excised and
the wound sutured. After this
the lung has been replaced in it's
normal position and the aperture
closed. Two-thirds of the patients
who have been subjected to opa-
rafions Of this kind have fully re-
covered.

THE COMING CATASTROPHE.

One of the greatest catastro
phes III the history Of the world
will happen in this coming year
Nothing can prevent it. 1t is as
inevitable as the rising and set.
ting of the sun.
This catastrophe is the death bv
starvation Of thousands Of people
in the next eight months. This
number will exceed the total
number that have been killed on
all battlefronts in the past four
years.
This is not a rash guess. It is
the plain statement made by those
who have the facts Of the situa-
tion in hand and who dare to face
these facts.
In Northern Russia alone, con-
servative estimates figure 10000
600 deaths from starvation this
winter. Fifty million people in
this district are beyond help be-
cause Of the complete collapse of
Russia s transportation facilities
under her reign of anarchy and
because too Of her ice-locked
ports.
Fortunately, other countries of
Europe, although lacking food as
much as Russia, are more accessi-
BILE. If their peoples suffer the
awful calamity Of these people of
Northern Russia it will be because
America would not send them
food. not because we could not.

been completed by which the "big

the war. The Pittsburg Dispatch
comments on this record that
compels the admiration Of the
world':
at has been too often forgot
ten that in addition to her part
on the Western Front Great Bri-
! tain has had to maintain armies
| and fight battles on more and
widely separated fronts than any
other belligerent Of the Allies.
British casualty figures will be
worth remembering on December
7, the day set apart for America
to do honor to her British Allies
in the war for human freedom. .
The French, in conformity with
their policy Of proud silence"
throughout the war, have thus
far issued no casualty list, but
most authorities are agreed that
the total can not be less than t.
100000. One authority, Al
tempting AN estimate Of
France s sacrifice in a roundabout
thousand Americans, with heads

the French actually killed on the
West Front number one and a
quarter millions. Germany's off
cial list, giving 1,5S0,0OO killed,
100000 whose fate, according to
the Vorwarts of Berlin, is un-
known, and 100000 wounded, is
considered conservative by sew
eral commentators.

5otal of 100000 men called to
arms out Of a total population Of
'6,OO0,O00. "This figure ac-
ording to dispatch from Rome,

lization reached 141a per cent.

British Slaughter Of Huns

Mr.. Vaohon, 81 had the opportunity
to talk to q Tommy who was in

iBh front. He belonged to the urtil-
Iery, and ne had some very interest
ing things to tell of the big battle
He was right in the heavy part OF
the fighting, and he told me how they
fred their 13-pound shrapnel and
percussion shells point blank into the
German ranks at 1000 yards. From
his story, it was a terrible slaugh-
ter.

seem to be very much excited over the
outcome Of the drive"
