close by. It is possible to get quick
service in an emergency at any time.
There are on duty at the hospital a,

II il was found at . o'clock in the
morning that a patient needed an i'm
mediate operation IT could be per-
formed at once. II consultation was
deemed expedient, the chief surgeon
and any others of the staff needed
might be telephoned. and they could
be on hand within a very short time.
0mcers Subject to Call.
The officers on duty at the hos
pftal are always subject to call. The
fact that they may have some per-
sonal engagement makes no differ
ence II an emergency case Is brought
in. Not so long ago a certain young
| officer attached to the oral surgery
department invited a party of friends
to dinner and the theater. During
the afternoon of the appointed day IT
was decided to operate on two avi-
ators who had been in a serious auto
mobile accident and had been con-
siderably broken up as to faces and
jaws. About s o'clock, when his
guests were putting on the finish
ing touches to their toilets and were
beginning to look forward with an
ticipation to a nice, thick, juicy steak
with all the trimmings. he telephoned
that he had finished with one man and
was just starting into the operating 6
room with the other. He finally
reached the theater by the middle OF
the first act. Which shows that duty
is the first consideration with these
attached to the hospital.
The Army Medical School is not
an undergraduate school. 1t conducts
only post graduate courses, with spe
cial emphasis on serum therapy
Roentgenology, preventive medicine
and epidemiology. AS r. clinic they
have the entire Walter Reed Cen
eral Hospital. After graduation stu
dent officers are sent to the Medical
Field Service School at Carlisle Bar
racks, Pennsylvania, where they are
instructed in military drill, taught
to be soldiers and familiarized with
the medical department field units
used in peace and war. The Veteri-
nary School and the Dental School are
conducted on the same principles.
The nurses attending the Army
School of Nursing receive much the
same training as those in civilian hos
pitfalls. with the possible exception
that they perhaps have stricter dis
cipline, since they must conform to
officers and men serving in the Army
Particular emphasis is also given to
public health training, and as a
method of obtaining practical train
ing the hospital each year details
nurses for a specified period to work
with local public health and welfare
organizations.
Walter Reed Hospital, of course, s.
not the only Army hospital in which
Veterans Bureau patients are being
taken care of. Army hospitals in all
sections of the country are being
utilized for this purpose. According
to a recent report of the Veterans
Bureau the Army reserves 1887 beds
in their hospitals for such patients
2,256 of which were occupied at the
date of the report. 1t Is true in all
of these, as at Walter Reed, that nc
discrimination is shown between bu-
reau patients and those from the
Army.

Cites Lesson Taught and Hope
Inspired by Easter Observance

kindergarten or the university-East-
er brings diverse lessons, as each
must learn his own lesson or the day.
But to my mind. of all the marvellous
words and works which came from
the Great Teacher of mankind, who.
centuries agone, put off His grave
clothes and came anew to what we
call life, none has SO reconciled
science and religion as that lesson
which He gave for our instruction
and consolation and for our sure de-
fense in every hour of doubt and
troubIe-'I am come to give life, and
to. give 1t more abundantly."
There is a point where physical
strength ceases to be of avail. Like
wise, in the far-reaching realm of the
human intellect there is a horizon be-
yond which we cannot see. Moreover.
there is a limit to the. powers of rea-
son and to human expression. The
will, guided and controlled by the
intellect. may make of one whited
sepulcher-clean without, yet filled
with dead mems bones. But faith.
which can change motive as well as
conduct, can convert the VIII into
something vital. Faith, after all, Is
the real life-giving power, of which
the more that is accumulated the more
abundantly will it show, not only In
NAs
this morn we taboo death; we refuse
to believe that there is any such
thing as permanent dissolution.
Graves and sepulcher are not sad
spots today; they are gateways to
more abundant life. Hence we nave
our answers to the questions: was
this lesson or promise or the Great
Teacher one that was to remain haZy
and uncertain until death ana 10
find its full fruition only when we
pass from mortal ken, or was 1t
promise that we might by faith en-
large the lives we live, increase the
hopes we possess. beautify and glori-
fy the age in which we exist?
The resurrection morn brings the de-
sire for a larger and finer life and the
faith that we shall enjoy fulhllment or
that desire 1t is not mere memorial
to the resurrection Of the One Perfect
Character In all history. 1t is the guer-
don of not only the hope, but the desire
of every living soul. 1t is the bursting
into full glory of new day when not
for rewards sake, nor for the sake of
policy, but for loves sake a more abun-
dant life Of faith and hope and charity
is to open up to the sons and daughters
of men.
Every day should be Easter to all of
us. AS the shadows fall and the sun
goes down the SHINING and the sinless
alike should be crucified-crucified for
their wrongs and for the good they have
done-and upon the morrow's morn,
and every morn thereafter, men and
women should cast aside the grave
clothes of their worldly pasts and rise
to newness of light and life, conse-
Grated and dedicated to the glory of
God, to the service of the Republic
and to mutual helpfulness unto all.

MEN AND AFFAIRS
BY ROBERT r. SMALL.

Travellers returning fom Havana
have all reported that drinking was
light in the Cuban capital. No ono
"pestered" them to have a drink and
then another But once they got
back home'-back to the dry shores
of America, their hospitable friends
showered liquor upon them morning,
noon and night.
All of which argues nothing pro
or con as TO the merits of prohibi-
ton, but shows merely the perversity
of human nature. Every child wants
the very thing il is told not 10
have. And who today admits 10 be-
ing grown up?
When an effort was made some
time ago to call the roll Of ths
famous Roosevelt tennis cabinet
Lawrence o. Murray, one-time As
sistant Secretary of Commerce. was
reported among the missing, tbs
inference being that he had passed
beyond" But. like Mark Twain, Mr..
Murray ia able 10 say that the re-
port of his death is slightly exaE-
gerated." Friends of the one-tlms
White House tennis player gave Gre
dence to the report, for he had drop
ped completely out of the life OF
the Capital and of the country.
AS A matter of fact, however. Mr..
Murray, long a stalwart admirer OF
President Roosevelt, still is leading
the. strenuous life" Today he is
either in the wilds of Africa or very
near them, stalking big game and
hoping to bring home to the friends
who prematurely had mourned him
some very fine specimens OF tiger
skins and other trophies of the hunt
in the jungles.
Mr.. Murray has been living in Paris,
where he recently completed course
at the Institute Of Higher Interna-
tional Law. In planning his African
hunt he had hoped at first to follow
the Roosevelt trails of 1909, but be-
fore departing from the French cap
ital announced a change Of route
which will carry him over country
equally hazardous to health and
| limb.
Lawrence Murray was one OF those
who always contended that It. +"
played an excellent game Of tennis.
| This always was a disputed point. IN
| point of strenuousness, however, Mr..
! Murray once said that T. r. was not
| in il with Clifford Pinchot, who more
! than often was the Presidents part
ner in doubles. Clifford flung him
! self into the game with boundless
vigor," said Mr. Murray.

THOs. II. MARSHALL.
Former. Vice President of the United
... States.


The modern Psychologist, as catch
his idea, accepts literally the old
statement that as a man thinketh
so he is. He contends that life is
hampered by what he is pleased to
call inhibitions. These, according to
his scientific viewpoint, are emana-
tions of the human intellect They
are the things which we think. BY
way of illustration, he points out that
a man who thinks he can not succeed
Is bound to fail; that one who cher
ishes hatred can never understand
the beneflcent influence OF love; that
he who constantly suspects his fell
lows grows jaundiced in his outlook
upon life. He would improve the
world and make better all who dwell
inhibitions and substituting for them
right principles, right motives and
right conduct.
n n n
Up to this point I have no con-
troversy with modern psychologists. /
am inclined to agree with them that
when the will enters the arena and
puts on gloves II can knock out any
champion OF evil thought or evil pur-
pose. But the theory that the will
may be SO set into motion by the in
tellect as to affect the interior life
of the individual Is not sound The
will, moved exclusively by the INTEL
lect, may induce a man to act hon.
estly, inasmuch as his intellect may
reveal that honesty Is the best policy
1t may cause him to speak the truth.
inasmuch as his intellect may con-
vince him that truth Is mighty and
VIII prevail; or 1t may range him on
the side OF all the VirfMaa a In OF
all the vices, inasmuch as his intel
lect may dictate that in the long run
the virtues are superior and therefore
preferable, but the will moved ex-
clusively by the intellect does not
change the man.
In this lies the lesson as well as the
consolation and hope of Easter day,
which Is the cut diamond of all the
days OF the year and, like a diamond
has many facets, each of which scin-
tilates sweetness and light As burst
ing bud and opening flower swell and
break into beauty and fragrance in
the sunlight of the day, SO our hearts
burn and swell within US at the recol-
lection of the, event which Easter
commentaries. Joy and gladness are
abroad in the land. Whether family
or certainly, a vast majority of man
kind believes in the resurrection
morn. 1t Is day of benediction as
we'll as Of consolation and hope. 1t

that after every crucinxion resur-
rection comes to every just person
and every Just cause. 1t Is a day that

FRENCH BIRTH RATE
CONTINUES TO FALL
Excess Over Deaths in 1924 r.,
216-Alsace- Lorraine Raises
General Figures.
Rr the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, March 26.--The French
birth rate continues to decline. ac-
cording to the vital statistics for last
year, just completed. The births
numbered 752,101, and the deaths
679,S85, the excess of births over
deaths being 72,216, as compared with
$4,000 for the preceding year. DR.
Variot, authority on vital statistics
remarks that but for the population
of the recovered province of Alsace-
Lorraine, where large families are
still usual, the situation would be
much worse.
Accordin to figures gathered by
him, the number of births steadily in
creased in France from the begin
ming of the nineteenth century and
reached their peak during the second
empire, with more than 100000 an
nually. After the war of 1870 they
began to drop.
Thus, in 1876 there were $4,000
births; in 1885, 100000; in 1880, $751;
600, and in 1907, 774,0Oo.
The doctor observes that the birth
rate in Germany has begun to fall
but that the excess of births over
deaths still amounts to 100000.

as his mistress, giving birth to a
child, who died in infancy. Finally,
discovering she was apparently no

she escaped through the aid of a

Later, the girl added, she was
