BASE HOSPITAL NO. 10
PRAISED BY COLONEL
William ]. Taylor Tells of
Pennsylvania Institutions
Great Work

High praise for the work OF American
surgeons throughout the war was given
by Lieutenant Colonel William ]. Taylor,
who has arrived at his home, 1925 Pine
street. Colonel Taylor arrived yester-
day and spent only few hours in Phil
adelphia, as he was here on leave. He
left today for Camp Dix. but expects to
return tomorrow.
Colonel Taylor went abroad in May,
1917. with Base Hospital Unit No. 10 of
the Pennsylvania Hospital. At that time
he was a lieutenant. His promotion to
the lieutenant colonel came In recogni-
tion Of his work with the unit.
Speaking Of the accomplishments of
Base Hospital No. 10, Doctor Taylor
said:
THE remarkable recoveries from the
most serious wounds Of many OF our
patients, was the thing that perhaps
struck me the most, during my stay in
France.
Some Of the wounds received from
shrapnel. hand grenades and machine.
gun bullets" continued Doctor Taylor.
were of such a nature that the soldiers
recovery was almost given up, but a
great many Of them recovered. Another
thing that impressed me was the almost
total absence Of typhoid and tetanus
infections"
Doctor Taylor was stationed with the
other members Of the unit at the British
Hospital No. is. at Treport, on the
western coast Of France. eighteen miles
north Of Dleppe. and about fifty miles
east OF Amiens. The hospital had 1900
beds, all Of which were continually
filed. The wounded would be brought
to this hospital in motor ambulances,
treated here until such time as they
were able to be transported. and then
sent to permanent hospitals In England.
Many American soldiers among the units
brlgaded with the British early in the
American participation in the war, were
treated at this hospital, Doctor Taylor
said, and their spirit under extreme
pain was wonderful. The hospital was
never bombed by the Huns, the doctor
said, and the only time that any ap-
prehension was felt was during the Ger
man drive on Amiens last March, when
General Coughs Fifth British Army was
pushed back, and, for time, was cut
of from the other armies.
Doctor Taylor returned on the steam
ship Susquehanna, which docked at New
port News He said that the other MEM
bers of the unit soon expect to get their
release from the British Government and
return home.

HERO SURPRISES FAMILY
Name in Casualty List, Camden
Boy Appears at Home

Sorrow of a father and mother at
the appearance of their sons name in

turned to Joy last night when the boy

before her, Mrs. Seeley was nearly over

Young Seeley enlisted In the medical

to France in July. where he was with

right arm and leg when German shell

Many of the older teachers in the city

effected with the State Retirement
Fund, according to ]. Eugene Baker,
principal Of the Girls High School, and
president of the Philadelphia Teachers

"If the Board of Education decides TO

said. "Under the State system these
teachers would be entitled to as many
