REVEALED IN STATISTICS
Armistice November II Finds $685.
$40 Beds in Camps and Base Hos

GENERAL HEADQUARTERS AMER
ICAN EXPEDITIoNARY FORCE. De-
cember 10 Correspondence of the
Associated Press) 1.-The prodigious
effort of the medical department in
the Army in France is revealed in
statistics which the Associated Press
is now permitted to make public.
When, on November II. the armistice
suspended hostilities and the great
expansion and extension work of the
medical department was suspended
there were in operation 283,240 beds
in camp and base hospitals and con-
valescent camps, with about 100000
of them vacant.
There were on duty in the American
expeditionary force at that time a.
$50 doctors and 1888 nurses. The
authorized nurse strength of the
Army when America entered the war
was EOS, and of doctors, 300-figures
that testify to the work the medical
corps was called upon to perform.

Convalescent Camp Service.

Convalescent camps at the bed rate
of 20 per cent of normal hospital
beds are authorized for the purpose
of giving as early graduated physi-
cal training as possible, and fifteen
such camps are in operation at pres
ent.
The American hospitals are partly
in French barracks, school buildings
and hotels and partly in constructed
environments of demountable build
ings. All the buildings taken over
were remodeled and QUILTED for the
purpose. lighted and heated and mod
ernized, while the demountable huts
are models of their kind.

Advertisement Interesting.

The disqualification of the Army in
France is interesting. Basically it
consists of mobile organizations To
each division there are four field hos
pitfalls, two evacuation hospitals and
one mobile surgical hospital, and, in
addition. there is fixed hospitaliza-
ton, consisting of camp and base out
fits and convalescent camps, with an
authorized bed capacity of Is per
cent of the strength of the command.
There are now IS camp hospitals
serving training and billeting areas,
while for general service and for the
treatment of more serious cases and
battle casualties there are lis base
hospitals. These base hospitals occa-
sionally are single institutions of
from 1.00G to 5000 beds, or are group
ed in hospital centers. Twenty such
centers of from $500 to $4,000 beds
are in operation.

their foliage. She knew the birds and
the birds knew her, and they were so
iona or her that they never made any
loud cutlery when she came near their
nests. They had known her ever since
she could toddle about. for she used
TO wander in the forest even when she
WAS very small
Indeed, the forest had been her nurse.
when her father and mother, in earn
ing their scanty living, were compelled
10 go away from home. they always
went away satisfied that she would be
cared for In some way.
Left alone, she would toddle or into
the woods. and when she grew tired
or looking at the birds and the big
butterflies that huttered over tho wild
flowers she would stretch herself on
the grass under the sheltering arms

by the woodbne, and there sleepj As
