American Women
In the Balkan States

The work and influence of the
American woman in the. war has
formed the. subject of praise and
tribute from. thousand pens. ..
But there is a small band of Amer
lean woman physicians now fighting
disease and restitution in the Bal
kan states; about whose work little
has been said. These doctors are
members of the American Womans
hospital at New York, and have been
assisting the American Red Cross in
its humanitarian work in Serbia
Montenegro, Albania and Greece.
They have come from all parts OF
the United States, and in their work
in various European countries have
come in contact with every form o.
cont2Gion and every degree of mis-
cry.
The story of the achievements o.
one of the doctors is typical of the
work of all the rest. At the first
cal! of help from Greece, Regina
Flood Keyes, M. D., who enjoyed d
lucrative practice in Buffalo, N. Y.
packed her surgical instruments and
came to Vodena, near the Greek-Ser-
bian frontier, where she set up a
Of medical supplies intended for
Syria. The ship which was to sup
ply her hospital never reached
Greece. 1t fell a victim to a Ger
man submarine. With the crippled
condition of transport through Ser,
bia it was impossible for the Amer
lean Red Cross to get her the neces
Sary equipment. She had no operat-
ing table, no sterilizers, no beds, no
stoves, no nothing except her small!
kit of surgical instruments. a few
pounds Of medicineS-and unbound,
ed American confidence and determi-
nation. DeSpairing not the slightest
over her utter lack of equipment
she set about and with the assist
ance of a local carpenter had an op
Grating table built out of old dry
goods cases. She borrowed some
iron beds from an abandoned mill
tary hospital. Old gasoline cans
were made into stoves. stovepipes,
dishes, kettles, steriliZers and ev-
erytling needed to aid in an emer
gency.
With these nondescript furnish
ings and with the aid of DIR. Mabei
Flood. of Elmira. \. Y. and two
American nurses, DR.. Keyes opened
the first American hospital in north
ern Greece. She had no American
flag with which to identify the hos
pital, so she made one of material
supplied by local peasants.

ter were, said:
Eyes, T can. Three of the mos
wonderful things he bestowe
upon her were a sweet dispos
tion, sunny smile, kiss, an
then, a great big kiss"
So far as the public was con
cerned this was the only .1cour
given of the magnificent pres
ents received by the bride. tn

such matters were of privat

coveted already. In recent sales

NATIONAL GUARD
TO BE RELOCATED
IN PRESENT PLAN

Congress will be asked to put the
nations security in the keeping OF
a strong national force and relegate
to the national guard, under state
control, the job OF maintaining local
order. according to we'll Informed
officers at the state department
Plans drafted for the general staff
provide for universal military train
ing as the heart of the future army.
Secretary of War Baker has not ap-
proved any of these pending actious
of the peace conference on conscrip
ton and disarmament.
In any plan. it is said. the ma
tional guard will be treated as Il
local force and not as the backbone
of the nations army. This would be
a departure from past policy and
would result from the lessons Of the
war, which demand it is said. that
the entire man power Of a nation
be trained.
In the main, administration inter-
pretation of political and public SEN
timent will determine what sort of
peace-time preparedness is presented
to the next congress.
Army experts expect a quick de-
cision after the return OF the pres
ident and Secretary OF War Baker
from abroad.
With thousands of officers enrolled
in the reserve corps, army men to-
day admitted their anxiety to form
also real reserve for the necessary
enlisted men. --.s
For years the army has been for
universal service. But. many well
informed officers do not believe that
any administration would foster such
a plan and many more believe con-
gress would never pass such leGis-

American Soda Fountains
About to Invade london

The soda water invasion is about
to begin, and it is expected that a
dozen or more modern fountains soon
will be operating within half a mile
of Picadilly Circus, while, others will
be going full blast in the suburbs.
This happy promise for the Amer
leans living here came through the
efforts of an, American manufacturer
who happened to be in London on
other business. Inquiry developed
that there were few fountains in the
city, and these were far from mod
ern. SO he set out to sell his wares
and within a week had sold a bill
which counted far into the thousands
The iced drink business has suf
fered a setback since the war began
Lack of sugar, fruit syrups and milk
was so severely felt that the poor
imitation of American soda water did
not appeal to the Londoner. With
the insta1la ton of new fountains and
9 plentiful supply of fruits and milk
1t is believed the drink will become
popular this summer.
