Earl W BAKER IN WASHINGTON,
d, c.

Earl w. Baker is the son OF Mrs. Cert
rude Hartwell, who lives at the Board
Landing. He enlisted last summer, hav-
ing been rejected earlier in the year by
the NAVY, owing to defective eyesight.
He went to an oculist and after several
months' treatment made another attempt
to enter the ser vice This time he sought
The branch where he was most at home,
the medical corps, for he was trained
nurse at the time of his enlistment, hav-
inc a responsible position IN Massa-
chusetts hospital. He first went to Fort
Ethan Allen for training and later was
sent South. For number of months he
was wardmaster of the base hospital at
Fort Mcclellan at Admission, Ala, where
he was very successful, handling thous-
and or more cases in his ward with only
two or three deaths. His men loved him
and he is said to have looked after the
sick boys like mother.
During this time he attracted the atten-
ton of higher officials who realized his
worth and ambition to study medicine
and surgery. He was sent early In the
new year to Atlanta for special course
and he wrote to his mother later: Il shall
study night and day, putting my heart
and soul into this work. That he has
done so is shown by the fact that he was
chosen from his class to 60 to St. Eliza
beth hospital in Washington for years
study. He receives certain number of
hours practical work and observation in
the hospital, spending the remaining
hours in study.
He recently wrote home: II have never
seen such people as these southerners.
Their home is yours when you are with
them and there is nothing too great for
them to do for stranger shall miss
their hospitality, which, although had
but little time to accept, was always ex-
tended me and I made some wonderful
friends whom shall never forget"
Young Baker has not been home since
he first went South and it will undoubt-
eddy be long time before he has fur
Tough.
He is anxious to hear from his North
ern friends and his address is, Earl W.

THE LID LIFTED.

The War Department has lifted the lid
from it's army transportation activities
and let us see what is beneath.
1t tells us that 800, 900 men are now in
France, that 1000, 600: will be there on
July LIST and that they are going across at
the rate of $50, 600 q month.
fut an average of 5000 on ship and
TINS means that fifty transports a month
are crossing the ocean. They are not
sailing separately, but in vast conveys;
yet they are going at the average rate-of
nearly two every day, producing that
Drloge OF ships of which we have heard
much.
NO such stupendous transport of troops
was ever before attempted i'll the history
OF warfare. If no other evidence were
available, the success of this great move
ment would prove that the German SUBJ
marine campaign has failed. But this is
only the beginning. -Phil Public Ledger.

courtesies on the occasion of this Pomona
meeting
The patrons all joined in singing
"America, !" which was followed by clos
inc exercises of the fifth degree. These
Pomona meetings are largely attended by
memhers of subordinate oranges of the
county and prove instructive and helpful
as well as bringing patrons together for
social enjoyment, and this June meeting

Sometimes there are serious condi-
lions where hospital operation is the
only alternative, but on the other hand
so many women have been cured by this
famous root and herb remedy, Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, after
doctors have said that an operation was
necessary - every woman who wants
to avoid an operation should give it
fair trial before submitting to such
trying ordeal.
If complications exist, write to Lydia

for advice. The result of many years
experience is at yonr service.
