IN their own country
He was born in New York city In
1857 and obtained his schooling at
Trinity school and New York univer-
sity. During his freshman year in
college, though but sixteen years of
age, he enlisted in the regular army
and served in the Spanish-American
war as private. He received his de-
gree of M. D. from New York univer-
sity in 1908, specializing in pathology,
nervous and mental diseases. In 1914
and 1915, he served with the United
States government as a special expert,
investigating pellagra in the southern
states.
The Wisconsin Psychiatric institute
was started by Doctor Lorenz in 1915,
when he assumed the post of director
of the institution, which has since de-
veloped into one of the most impor
tant research departments in the
state service. This led to his appoint
ment as professor Of nervous and
mental diseases at the University of
Wisconsin in 1917.
Early in 1917 he recruited a field
hospital in Madison, and received a
commission as lieutenant, taking COM
mand of the unit in June, and was pro-
NOTED to the rank Of major. The
company was designated as Field Hos
pital 127, and was attached to the

DONKEY AND MULE
SERVE MAN WELL
In Some Countries Rank Far
Above Horse.

The donkey and the mule, slandered
and slurred, more often cursed than
discussed, maligned and impugned as
obstreperous, cantankerous beasts of
burden, have served man long and
well. The best donkeys, says the
Brooklyn Eagle, are not to be found
IN this country, although in the coal
mines and mountainous regions the
patiently working little beasts daily
render a service that no other animal
could we'll perform. Because of their
hard, tough hoofs they are able to
climb rugged and rocky mountains and
to traverse parts of the earth's sur
face that would be impossible to a
horse
The donkeys of Spain are especially
good, and in Egypt the donkey is far
more precious than the horse. 1t is
said that the donkey is far better
able to find it's way over the desert
than is the camel, and travellers have
reported seeing long lines of camels
travelling in caravan with single
donkey in the lead. The camels carry
the water supply for their little pilot
of the caravan and, in return for this
service he leads them safely in the
right direction
The donkey is the father of the
mule. On the eastern continent dom
keys run wild and have interbred
with horses. The mule is the result
of this interpreting, its father being
the donkey and its mother the horse.
The mule and the donkey are alike
in many respects. The mule is the
larger of the two animals, but both
have the same streak Of obstinacy
and an excellent memory. AS mat
ter of fact, their memory is often too
good. They will long remember peo-
pie who have mistreated them and
plainly show their resentment for a
long time after. They are alike en-
dowed with a will power that is
peculiarly strong and they like to
have their own way. This trait has
earned for them the reputation of be-
ing balky, obstreperous and obstinate.
The donkey has a mouth that is
IlGu Will NcIy lOuSh ShIA 81 mat
he can live on vegetable fare that
would probably kill less hardy ami
NAL. Thistles he can masticate thor
oughly. Both the mule and the donkey
can live on rough food on which d
horse would starve to death. Each
eats considerably less than horse.
In European and Asiatic countries
and, in fact in all countries where
there is much mountainous territory,
a great part of the commerce is de
pendent upon the donkey. The hardy
little animal can carry load of I'M
believable weight with apparent ease
and little discomfort Caravans of
them will start on a long trip over
the mountains heavily loaded with
merchandise for all parts of the world.
Over the mountains and down to a
seaport he will carry his burden.
There the cargo of spices, camphor
ard what not is loaded on ships and
carried to the four corners of the
earth.
