Everybody 10 talking about Here

That lis exactly what the paper is
for. You talk for 1t. You talk about
it. You talk before it comes and after
it leaves. But you must not talk

In short, Here and There, is the
base hospital paper. 1t covers the

One Of the reasons why you like

kind of men who put it out. Capt. G..

school. who has 1t in charge, declares
that he has the best set Of men OBJ

SOLDIERS JUST men,
SAYS HEAD NURSE
No Less Appreciative of Hospital
Attentions Than Are the
Civilian Patients.

Soldiers are the same as ordinary
folks when they get into the hospital.
l don't think they are any less ap-
preciative of what is done for them
than are civilians. They do have a
wonderful spirit. though, which helps
the nurses a lot"
Thus spoke Miss Helena Redford,
head nurse. at the Base" yesterday.
when asked to tell what she thought
about the khaki-clad patients with
whom she has had to deal In the last
few months.
Miss Redfords home is in Kansas.
but she is a graduate of the Johns
Hopkins School of Nursing, Balti-
more. She came here last December
from Camp Dix.
1t is not intended to break up the
training school for nurses at the
Base unless the camp is not kept
.up by the government. The nurses
who came to study from Oglethorpe
took the places, in large part. of
other students who had to give up
the course for various reasons.
There is plenty to be done for the
Army men now and the young nurses
are determined to do their part.

hit with 1t but he hardly imagined
that 1t would be put on the lost list"

takes something like Cores "Humor-
Gus Hospital Experiences" He is in

chance to stop work.

captured the first one. White only
tried his skill once and had all ms
competitors beaten by long mile.
Gerhardt took second prize after
hard competition with "Acrobatic

more difficult to handle than the
trapeze.

winner was Davidson. and he Shouts

honor Of being declared the winner
had to be bestowed upon Louis Kretz,
who trickily avoided further c0mpeti-

White. who proved to be the all
ing, ran away with the second prize:
After the pies were digested we had
one of those wonderful exhibitions on
the trapeze which only Oscar Meyer
can give US. But Ernest Herbert gave
him a close race In performance on
the swinging bar. And SO did Will
Jams, who exhibited quite number

A leg-wrestling contest in which
Adam Hill and Oscar Meyer qualified
as winners proved very thrilling. Hail
defeated Meyer with his left leg, ima-
mediately Meyer challenged Hill for
a right-leg contest, in which Meyer
won-draw. Thereafter twenty-five
boys had lots of fun by getting the
kaiser's goat and Moran was the
one who went away with the goat
and the frst prize.
The wind-up of the evenings pro-
