completed, the school will be trans
ferred to the city, where the men will
be entirely removed from the hospital

has a record that is almost u%nequalled
for experience and efficiency in the
equipment and administration of tn

was director Of Muirdale Sanatorium
in Wisconsin, which has become a
model for students of tuberculosis SAN

the Allies he enlisted in the medical
reserve corps and was sent TO France
where he equipped and organized 81
number of hospitals for tuberculosis

rare beings, n born administrator,
with sympathy, understanding and a
clear goal ahead from which he never
wavers. Above all, he is blessed with
a sense of humor. These attributes
make him one of the best loved and
most capable of men. As a student in

arrival at the sanatorium. they are
first placed in an observation ward, no
matter what their condition, where
they are obliged to remain in bed for
two weeks so that the doctors may
make u diagnosis without interference
from unnecessary exercise and other
strain upon the body. Advanced pa
TENTS are then placed in the hospital
and incipient cases in the various
payilions. AS their condition improves,
they are gradually promoted to the
pavilions for convalescents. Then,
when they become inactive" cases,
they are placed under observation for

\ Generous Thing
When the government made provi-
sion for the care and treatment Of its
eX-service men. it did the most gener-
Gus thing that a grateful government
has even done for It's former soldiers.
II not only offered to give them expert
medical service free OF charge and to
pay them while under treatment. but
10 gave them a chance ito make good
economically after their final dis
charge from the sanatorium. And 1t
is with the latter thought in mind that
occupational therapy, industrial recre-
alton. and vocational training have
been introduced at Johnson City for
the patients under treatment. The
primary function OF occupational
therapy Is, of course. TO take the pa
tents mind off his own condition and

CALL KINGS WEDDING NULL
Alexander Failed TO Comply With
Greek Legal Formaiitles

London, May 2o.--(By A. P0-The
marriage Of King Alexander of Greece
to Mademoiselle Kanos not only is
norganatic and unrecognized by the
constitution, but is considered null by
Greek civil law because the ceremony
was performed without a license from
the metropolitan and without other legal
formalties required for royal weddings,
according to an Athens dispatch to the
London Times.
Little interest in this aspect Of the
marriage is being shown by the Greek
public, perhaps because the future OF
royalty Is somewhat uncertain.
During the recent visit of King Alex
ander to Salonica, il Is declared. his
wife insisted upon remaining with him.
The government, however, according to
report, compelled her to leave Greece.
