War Nurses And

An Endless Task
Washington, Oct 6. Word to the
Red Cross from the front today paint-
ed a heroic and pitiful picture of the
endlesi. task confronting American
surgeons and , nurses struggling to
keep ubreast the stream of wounded
men which constantly pours back up
on them from the fighting front.

the morning, and he is still operating,"
wrote a member of the staff. Dr.
Beslcv recently cabled for nine addi
tional surgeons and twenty-five Red
Cross nurses to assist him.
Dr. Besley's hospital is located three
miles fiom the ocean in a large camp
now under canvas. The civilians have
all of their little tents in one locality
and the nurses have temporary huts.
The stuff have only conical tents with
out sides. The Red Cross is sending
a carg.) of lumber abroad to construct
permanent quarters for those hospi-
,tals before winter sets in. Dr. IBes-
ley said in one of his letters:
"Th-3 English Tommy is certainly
a great; character. He never com
plains, no matter what happens to
him, an J the nurses find it difficult
to' get him to say what he really needs.
He is always cheerful and contented,
and Dves to tell what the British did
to the IScsches at Vimy Ridge. The
simple democratic manners of the
American doctor please the patients
and sCMm to cheor the wounded men
great!. Allied officers visit the camp
I every day, and praise highly the work
of our r;en." A .recent cable said:
"The Chicago Unit at present is
caring ' for more wounded and sick
'than any other American Unit in
J France. The Boston Unit has only a
rev nunarea lewer cases, rne aoe-
tors and enlisted men in both units
Jiave been working steadily and with
out much sleep, because there are not
enough of them to divide the work
in shifts and at the same time give
the wounded prompt attention. The
orderj'es seem tired but determined.
"Most of ou enlisted men have
been used to all the comforts of life,"
ssid one "of the Chicago Unit staff.
"Tney have never done any work half
as hard as they are getting here, but
they have been splendid all along and
havo come through with flying colors,
without a single exception they have
made good and we are proud of them."

It was this which gave the taste and
ordor. On the 27th of September,. Dr.
Kicliurdson, City Health Officer, sent
to tiic State Board of Health, samples
taken from the river and from the
water mains. The sample of river
water was taken at a point above the
packing . plant, and upon analysis
showed no typhoid germs or other
harmful ingredients. Samples taken
from the mains were also free from
germs or colon bacilla. n other words,
both camples of water were absolutely
free fiom typhoid germs.
Superintendent Hoytt left this
afternoon for Beaver Creek with

ne has a

Beaver Creek, he will also
open the main pipe line and find out
where the stoppage exists and ar
range to put in proper blowoffs.
At present we are getting water di
rectly from Beaver Creek, and the
flow is sufficient to properly supply
the town. We have let the contract
for filling subway to Mr. Phillips, at
13 cents per cubic yard. The work
will be finished in a few days as the
railroad company is supplying the dirt,
as rapidly as Mr. Phillips can handle
it.
The Street Department has made a

erly cleaned same. We have opened
the culverts and have practically
fi.iishcd getting ready for the winter
ftorma,. Examination of tho septic
tank shows same is properly function
ing so no trouble is anticipated in that
quarter this winter.
Now that people have quite gener
ally supplied their wood for the win
ter and stored same in sheds and
basements, we are jrottine allevs
cleaned up, both in business and resi

une ot tne airmen spied a group of

was a prison camp full of captured
Gnnnans. The aviator shot an aerial

were marching into camp after the

in the center of the column.
The destruction of life was heavy
though no building suffered. Hence
