If his wound is serious, he is rushed off to one of eight operating rooms, x-rayed, operated upon, treated, and sent back to bod! alt in isucih a short time he never knows what has happened. Fine Hospital Beady If he is in the sector northwest of Toul at the time he is wounded, Pri vate Jones is evacuated to one of the largest and best evacuation hospitals along the whole line. There are eight operating rooms such as he is in, and in each there are several teams of doc tors, who operate on iour hundred (Bses a day when . battle is on or can double tho number if necessary. The place is in charge of an eastern doctor, a iitltle fellow physically, who is not very military, so the French used to say. This mam has arranged that men like Private Jones have x rays for half a dozen different dis eases or infections before he is sent on, and as tho doctor says, "when a man's been with us. twenty four hours there isn 't a bug on him that we don't know about." If Private Jones i so slightly Wound ed he Ml recover in a few days,he stJays at this evacuation hospital. If not, he is made ready to be sent on to a per mapont and convalescent hospital miles and miles from boniMnlment at the front. Here i where he gets the surprise of hus life. In an ambulance he is taken to a nearby railroad sid ing, where a long train of sixteen cars waits. Private Jones thinks he is back in U. S. A. because they are long grace ful cars like the ones at homo, and there is no class marked on them or "30 hommete on 8 chevaux." Hospital De Luxe This is one of several hospital trains now operated by the American army, running from the front to the sea, and passing big hospitals on the way. fcach car can hold thirty to fifty invalids, depending on how many aitting and how many bed cases thero are. The train is equipped with electric lights, electric fans, steam heaters, and all tho luxuries of hornet. Two of the few bathtubs in northern France are on each train, and you can get hot water by simrply, turning on a faucet. There are two kitchens on each train and each is in charge of a colored chef who knows how to cook American dishes. Tho train has a staff of nurses and doctors, and is .in charge OS a med ical major who thinks his train is bet tor than any oiiher that ever ran on tracks anywhere, though Itke specifi cations call for all of these hospital trains to be exactly tho same, even the paper on the luxurious officers' mess compartment. The medical staff lives on tone train. They have an oper ating room on each train, and can care for all emergency cases properly. From this moving hospital, Private Jones is evacuated to a base, hospital in the rear, whuie he has every atten tion known to medical science until he is ready toi go back. Every "dough boy" and evesy doughboy's mother can know that Private Jones is; not out at the fight for democracy when he is wounded at the iront. The boys under medical caro appreciate Uncle Sam's careful planning, and their brave spirit can be no oettcr expressed than by the words of the private with his foot shot off who looked up inito the face of hie doctor saying, "Doc tor, can t you patch it up quickly eo I can get beck theTe with the boys in a (flow days. We'll" get them next time, all of them." Despite the temptation and tender care, the "doughboys" are not slackers, and thoy don't want to be back in hospitals any longer than necessary.

Taylor- (fnitcd Pr.oss Staff Correspondent) With the American Army ill Lorraine, May 30. The Germans sent over three raiding parties during another gas pro jector attack in a Lorraine sector short ly after midnight yesterday. Two of them were virtually wiped out and the third driven off. The enemy patrol's object was to' seek information regarding the result of the gassing and to take prisoners if possible. One of the raiding parties, number ing about 50, was beaten off before it reached the American lines. The ec ond managed to get 12 men into the American tranches. Ten of these were killed and the others were captured. The third pnrtv of fifty men was allowed to walk into an ambush. When the Yan kees blazed away, the few bodies re maining unscathed rushed rvllmell for their own lines. They left the ground strewn with dead. Yankee artillery responded to the German barrage with heavy and effec tive fire. Machine) guns raked enemy positions. The new. American positions are rap idly being strengthened, infantry and engineers digging in regardless of con stant boche shelling. ' Three of tha attacks took place early Tuesday night and one yesterday morn ing. All were easily beaten off. The number of boche prisoners tak en in this area now numbers 240. Persistent efforts of the German to re capture the village and heights are in dicative of the importance they attach to the heights for observation purposes. Although they advanced in thick waves in each attack, only one wave succeeded in reaching the American line. This happened about 7 o'clock at night. The infantry 'and machine gun ners took heavy toll as the bodies ad vanced. When the survivors reached the line they were bayonetted or shot down. Those who remained fled in disorder. Artillery smashed all the other attacks. As tho boche waves advanced, light and heavy f;uiis laid down a fierce counter barrage, virtually wiping out the first and second waves. All the reserve and support positions also were heavily shelled) preventing the isnemy from rt organizing. Two of the attacks were made f rontal ly on the village. -The others were made to the right and to the left. , ( The Americans now have a number of German machine guns and are pour ing bullets from them into the enemy. The infantry bIbo are using boche rifles which they captured. . Machine guns, and large quantities of ammunition ta ken 'in the capture of Cnntigny were promptly turned against the Germans. The exact Dumber of machine guns ta ken is nut yet known. Small groups of prisoners are still coming in. Between beating off attacks details are busily searching tha cellars and dugouts in Cantigny. Nine were drugged from one hole this morning. An accurate estimato of the German losses is not yet possible, but they are obviously heavy, not only in the first lines, but in the rear organizations. There are indications that the losses iu the villngo alone will exceed a thous and, exclusive of the losses in counter attacks. All the German batteries were heav ily gassed by American artillery again lust night. SHELLS DO LITTLE DAMAGE ; By Fred S. Ferguson (t'r.ited Press Staff Correspondent) With the Americans in Picardy, May 30. The fifth successive counter at tack' against Cantigny was repulsed by the Americans last night. tm iMMm I.

The first shell fire to which American troops on the British front have been subjected resulted in exceedingly slight losses to one of the units that was acquiring final instruc tions. Their comrades, who have receiv ed actual trench training, including pat rolling and raiding, thus far have escap ed unscathed. The Americans in this region have ac quitted themselves admirably, all re ports agreeing that they set about learn ing the final details of the business for which they came to France, coolly and methodically, despite the fact they aro inhabitants of ono of the liveliest sec tors on the front.
