Chicago-While on an errand of
mercy in the Italian district, DR.. James
E. Smedley, a well-known north side
physician and volunteer Red Cross
worker, was dubbed into unconscious
ness by a crowd of excited women, who
believed he was mistreating his pa

The physician is recovering from
scalp wounds at his residence, under
the care of his wife, a graduate nurse.
He is 60 years old, but of powerful
physique.
After being rejected for the army
DR.. Smedley offered his services to
the local Red Cross organization. For
months he has given his time to char
ity cases, often being called from his
bed late at night.

where Tony, the little son of Mrs.

The doctor took the boy on his knee
and pinehed his cheek. Then he tried
to slip some pills into the lads mouth,
but his patient became rebellious.
"Come, now, be a good boy" urged
the doctor. They'll make you feel
better"
Tony still refused.
Then the physician resorted to the
| customary expedient of holding the
boys nose, thus forcing him to oper
his mouth and swallow the pellets.

Therefore, when he walked along

began to open wider and wider. Here

possibly could carry the afix de la
