PRAISE WALTER REED
TREATMENT OF men
Patients Resent Criticism Of Care
Given Them by Hospital
Personnel.
MEDICAL STAFF APPROVED
Some Defending Institution Have
Been There Over Year.

Sometimes public hospitals are
criticized and fault found, since there
are always a few patients who feel
that they have some cause for COM
plant. but the boys at Walter Reed
Hospital apparently are more than
satisfied with the treatment they re-
ceive, and, almost to a man, they re-
sent anything that savors Of criti-
cism Of the institution. ---......
Yesterday afternoon there was an
urgent invitation to send q represent
ative of The Star to the hospital.
When he arrived he was met by a
large detachment, many of whom
have been in the hospital more than
a year, and. from the converse ton
that 'ensued, II was evident that they
had no fault to fnd-in fact, quite to
the contrary They asked that the
following statement be printed In The
Star: :, -, :,
Praise for Treatment.
AF Walter Reed Hospital. o.,
We. patients of Walter Reed Hos
pital, who are under the jurisdic ton
or the Veterans Bureau, wish TO cor
rect the erroneous impression which
mas recently been given to the public
regarding conditions of dissatisfac-
tion supposed to exist among us.
Loyalty to those who have labored
conscientiously to improve our con-
dltion commands us to take this op-
portunity to let whom it; NAV cor. .
cern" know that we are deeply ap-
prsciative of the care, Kindness and
consideration shown us since we have
been inmates of this Institution.
we Ieel that We get something here
IN IN tn this Is hospital that we cannot get
surgeons as C5l. Keller, chief sur.
geon; Maj. Kirk, chief orthopetiic
surgeon, and the others. too nu-
merous to mention, who have at
tanned such proficiency in their pro-
surgeons anywhere in the world.
Personal Care Given.
Col. James D. Glennan, the su-
lperintendent. takes personal and
Grafton. w
A patients first aim is to recover
from the injury or disability from
which he suffers. Numbers of pa
tients have suffered frightfully before
reaching here, from unskilled treat
ment and poor technique, and have
had enough experience to know and
appreciate the fact that the technique
OF the Walter Reed staff has reached
the highest point of perfection known
When patient enters this hospital
he Is given. a copy of the hospital
rules (Which we contend are such
that we are glad to conform to),
and he can take 1t or leave 1t, as he
sees fit. If he dosen't like them he
can transfer to some other hospital
and no obstacle is put in the way OF
that transfer.
Meddlers Are Crfticized.
Vicious meddlers who have never
been in sympathy with the aims and
hopes of the majority of Veterans
Bureau patients here are requested
to let well enough alone.

Now, here's one that can be played
both ways from the middle-a bit Of

Van Nuis & Barnard Of Indianapolis,
the senior member Of which is none
other than Senator Samuel M. Raj
ston, prominently mentioned as the
next standard bearer Of the demo-
cratic party.

when asked at the Hotel La Fayette
how, things looked out In the Hoosier
everything before him and was cer-
tain OF the nomination.
How about the other side, Mr. Bar
nard?"
why, we think that Senator Raj
syon will undoubtedly be nominated.

1ident that he will be the next Presi-
dent"
And what s t. of President Coolidge,
.Oh, there's absolutely no question
but what he'll be swept into olf1ce. He
seems to gain In strength every day

Unable to fathom the drift OF the
argument, but mindful of the fact
that peculiar answers are the rule
rather than exception these days, the
Indiana attorney was thanked for his
information and q. quick getaway

RELIEVE SICKNESS
THROUGH GLANDS
SAYS SCIENTIST

DIR. Serge Voronoff, an inter
national authority on glands, says:
The brain, the nerves, the muscles,
as well as the liver, the kidneys and
all other organs would be incapable
of playing any useful part without
the aid of the glands. The fune-
tioning of our organs is no more
than the result of the activity of
our glands ,and when the bodily
functioning is, disturbed, the cause,
in most cases Should be sought, not
in the condition of the organ itself
bat in the condition Of the gland
which controls it.
Glandogen, the new scientific
gland tonic, prepared in tablet
form provides simple method of
taking glandular treatment. Gland
ogen, for men apd women, is OBJ
tainable at Clement s Drug Store.

In addition, there is Chaplin 8
