Army which has landed on our shores since your great 
Republic resolved to join in the world-struggle for the 
ideals of civilization. We deeply appreciate this prompt and 
generous response to our needs.

Ntmm rnmmm HISTORY OF BASE HOSPITAL No. 4, U. S. A. 
BASE Hospital No. 4 was organized in Cleveland early 
I in 1916, During September of that year a successful 
experimental mobilization took place near Philadel- 
phia. One month from the time the United States declared 
war Base Hospital No. 4 mobilized and was called into serv- 
ice. The Unit left Cleveland for New York on Sunday, May 
6th, 1917, with 27 officers, 64 nurses, 4 civilian employees 
and 155 enlisted men, and embarked on the Cunard 
liner H. M. S. Orduna which left New York harbor May 
Bth, 1917. 
Australia” docked at Rouen, France, the same evening 
and the Unit was received by English and French Officials 
as the first American Troops in France. The march of the 
Unit from the docks to the Barrier was the most talked-of 
event in our career. 
The Unit took over General Hospital No. 9 B. E. F. 
about five miles from Rouen and was known as such, re- 
taining its identity as Base Hospital No. 4 at American 
Headquarters, only. 
General Hospital No. 9 had a bed capacity of 1,200 with 
an expansion to 1,750. Patients came from the British 
sector and, except for Americans who were attached to 
this sector later, all were British subjects. These included 
English, Scotch, Welsh, Irish, Canadians, Australians, New 
Zealanders and South Africans. 
The only exciting event of the 10 days’ voyage was when 
reaching the danger zone, the convoy ship proved to be the 
U. S. S. Wadsworth (60). The American Fleet had pre- 
ceded the Unit to the war zone by a few days and their first 
assignment was to meet the Orduna and convoy her into 
Liverpool. The Unit landed in England May 18th, 1917, 
and was greeted by the Commanding Officer and Staff of 
the Liverpool district, Colonel Bradley of the U. S. Army, 
and representatives of the Nursing Division. The nurses 
and officers were sent to London and the enlisted men to 
Blackpool. The King and Queen of England received the 
officers and nurses at Buckingham Palace May 23rd. The 
nurses were also presented to Queen Alexandra at Marl- 
borough House the same day. Blackpool gave the enlisted 
men a welcome that will always leave pleasant memories. 
After the Unit became familiar with the work of the camp 
the British personnel was relieved for other posts. Only a 
liaison force remained. British V. A. D.’s were attached 
until July 19th when a reinforcement of nurses from Balti- 
more and Texas replaced them. 
The Unit had been in France when reinforcements of 
officers, nurses, and enlisted men arrived from Cleveland, 
bringing that Unit up to War time requirement. Two more 
reinforcements of enlisted men and four nurses replaced 
transferred personnel at various times. 
The Unit reunited at South Hampton and crossed the 
channel the night of May 24th on the British Hospital Ship 
Western Australia. 
The base at Rouen was from 60 to 80 miles behind the 
front lines, but during the summer of 1917 the bombard- 
ment along the Ypres-Messines Sector could be distinctly 
heard. 
Sailing up the Seine May 25th the Unit was greeted at 
every village and port by the French people with cheer- 
ing and shouting of “Vive les Americans. The Western 
During the battles on the Flanders front the Base Hos- 
pital sent surgical teams to different “C. C. S.’s” to assist r: novt* ■ vt*» »w is,wsbm»wi>

16 in the work of operating rooms and resuscitation wards. 
These teams consisted of a surgeon, anesthetist, nurse and 
orderly. Two nurses were decorated by the British for 
working under shell fire at a C. C. S. 
ments more efficiently trained and trenches dug throughout 
all the camps. Steel helmets were in evidence on moonlight 
nights and many “windup” parties were held. The worst 
raid occurred August 13th, 1918, when “Fritz” visited 
Rouen three times during the night and finally dropped a 
flare. Aside from stray nose-caps from anti-aircraft guns 
the hospital was never struck. Moonlight nights, however, 
lost all their attraction and rain was a most welcome relief. 
All who worked at the C. C. S. were shelled frequently. 
The Unit was well received by the British hospitals, but 
watched and studied very closely. By living quietly and 
carrying a full share of the work it finally won the distinction 
of being “not too bad.” 
A Research Department was organized in the Unit soon 
after arriving in France. Experimental work was carried on 
at the laboratory and in connection with the Gas School. 
During the 12 months of service the Unit cared for 
82,179 patients. The largest single day’s work was March 
27th, 1918, when 1,125 were convoyed in and out. The 
total number of deaths was 538, with 45 Americans. 
A Research Team of British personnel planned on join- 
ing the department at No. 9 General Hospital for some 
special work. The only evidence of the same was the ap- 
pearance of several monkeys. These frequently produced 
panics among nurses and patients by insisting on calis- 
thenic exercises on the St. Clair frames. 
General hospital inspection was made each Tuesday. 
This inspection included all wards, tents, kitchens, operating 
rooms and offices. The object was to keep up the hospital 
standard of economy, cleanliness and uniformity, including 
the adjustment of red neckties, polishing the center strips 
and hiding favorite patients. Much competition was de- 
veloped between the surgical and medical divisions as to 
which would present the best appearance with the least 
amount of work. All conceded that the surgical side had 
the most work, except those on the medical division. The 
“D. D. M. S.” always visited the hospital on Tuesday to look 
over patients and records. This was a great convenience 
for nurses and enlisted men, for one general scrubbing day 
covered two inspections. Enlisted men had inspection of 
quarters and equipment each Saturday and muster once a 
month. Drills were held more or less regularly at irregular 
intervals. 
Religious services were held each Sunday morning and 
Tuesday afternoon by British Padres. Three Padres were 
attached to the hospital—Church of England, Wesleyan, 
and Roman Catholic. Services were conducted in a tent 
until during the fall of 1918, when a log church was built by 
the enlisted men under the supervision of Padre Boyce. 
Chaplains not only looked after the spiritual welfare of the 
personnel, but also ministered to the needs of the patients. 
Many families were dependent on the Padres for infor- 
mation and advice concerning their wounded relatives. 
The soldiers were grateful for many extras, and for a confi- 
dant when no one else would stop to listen. The Unit won 
the credit of being representative of the most religious non- 
church going people in the world. 
Air raids occurred frequently during the spring and sum- 
mer of 1918. The first one experienced by the Unit was 
September 19th, 1917. No warning had been sounded when 
suddenly “Fritz” dropped his bombs and midnight terror 
was introduced. During the spring of 1918 raids became so 
frequent and dangerous that the anti-aircraft defenses in 
the area were multiplied, warnings adhered to very closely, 
windows darkened, geneva crosses removed, fire depart- 
During the spring of 1918 the American Red Cross sent 
an American Chaplain and volunteer aid to the Unit to 
look after the interests of American patients. The British 
Red Cross took excellent care of their hospitals, and kept a 
liberal supply of linens, dressings and special rations in the 
store rooms for daily distribution.

18 The Unit celebrated all American holidays and found 
recreation and amusement in Rouen, neighboring camps, 
forests and villages. The first holiday was Memorial Day 
just after arriving in France. 
our first anniversary especially when our mascot “Scotty” 
whom no one had seen for a year walked out on the platform 
and awakened memories of “Asleep in the Deep.” 
Easter Day found the hospitals in the midst of the 
heaviest w'ork of the war. The March retreat wras at its 
height and no thought was given to anything aside from 
the care of wounded patients and the possibilities of a 
greater retreat. 
On July 4th, 1917, a big dinner was followed by two base 
ball games and an evening of open house. The Unit’s team 
defeated the Canadians and St. Louis team. 
Thanksgiving Day found us thankful that turkey had 
been promised even though it failed to arrive until tw7o days 
later. Christmas, 1917, saw7 a united effort of the hospital 
personnel for the entertainment of patients. Carols w7ere 
sung in all wards and tents Christmas Day. During Christ- 
mas Day programs were carried out by nurses and enlisted 
men, tea was served to all patients, with the quartette and 
orchestra furnishing music. 
Jul> Fourth, 1918, was fittingly celebrated by a union of 
the A. E. h. m the area tor the afternoon and evening. 
This included Headquarters, Ordnance, St. Louis and 
Cleveland Units. French, British and Belgian military at- 
taches m the Rouen area joined m the field sports and 
evening entertainment. The 132 nd Regimental Band came 
down from the St. Quentin Sector and gave us our first 
“Jazz” music. 
The entire hospital wms artistically decorated with holly, 
mistletoe and ivy, gathered in the neighboring forests. Tea 
was nearly ruined by a water famine caused by bursting- 
pipes, and bucket brigades commandeered enough water 
for a “w7ee sip” o’ tea. 
From March until Armistice Day the hospital work 
was very heavy and not much time was given over to rec- 
reation. The Mobile Hospital was taken from the Unit 
during September, leaving just before the very trying in- 
fluenza epidemic reached camp. Added to the care of wound- 
ed was the extra w7ork of treating returning prisoners of w7ar. 
After New Year’s Day, Lincoln’s and Washington’s 
birthdays were observed with memorial addresses in the 
recreation hall. 
1 he nurses and officers had an informal dance Hallow- 
e’en, when many original masques appeared. Armistice Day 
saw the Unit celebrating in the American fashion, noise 
being the chief attraction of the parade through the camp and 
area. The camp celebrated Thanksgiving and Christmas 
Day very quietly with dinners and tea. 
Then for a week, early in March, 1918, the Unit enter- 
tained its British friends and American neighbors with a 
black-faced minstrel show. 
Mother’s Day wms observed throughout the American 
forces in France by the wearing of carnations and letter 
writing. A Mother’s Day service wras held in the church 
tent. 
Enlisted men had an occasional smoker and during the 
latter part of 1918 dances w7ere given for their French 
friends and members of the “W. A. A. C.” A very com- 
fortable recreation hall was provided for the men through 
the efforts of the British Red Cross workers. 
Unit Anniversary Day, May 25th, was an all-day cele- 
bration. During the morning a brief meeting wTas held in the 
recreation hall reviewing the work of the Unit. The afternoon 
wms spent at base ball and outdoor sports. A special dinner 
was served to all officers, nurses and enlisted men at 6 P. M., 
the “Non-Coms” serving—even the sergeants worked! 
An evening’s entertainment furnished a fitting climax to 
January 19th, 1919, the nurses and officers entertained 
all their French friends at a tea “dansant.” Three hundred 
guests wrere received. 
A farewell banquet was given British friends and liaison 
officers February 24th, 1919, by the officers of the Unit.

20 The Unit demobilized the hospital January 23rd, 1919. The 
flag was lowered for the last time and the flag pole taken 
down and sent to Cleveland to be cut up into souvenirs. 
Officers and enlisted men broke camp March Bth, 1919, 
and went via troop train to Vannes where they remained 
ten days and moved on to Brest. March 31st they left Camp 
Pontanezen and sailed on the U. S. S. Agamemnon, from 
Brest Harbor April Ist, arriving in Boston Harbor on the 
7th and leaving the ship for Camp Devens the Bth. After 
a short stay there they proceeded to Camp Sherman, Ohio, 
by troop train and were discharged in April and May. 
Nurses started in groups from Rouen to Vannes (Mori- 
ban) February 17th, 1919, and were stationed at Base 
Hospital 136 for three weeks. From there they moved on to 
Camp Kerehoun, Brest, for ten days and sailed from that 
port March 22nd, 1919, on the United Fruit Ship Heredia. 
The nurses landed at Hoboken April 3rd, 1919, and were 
demobilized a week later at Albert Hotel, New ork. 
While the Unit is entirely demobilized all the personnel 
will cover the unpleasant memories with a negative of for- 
getfulness, and enlarge the memory pictures of happy days.

22 MOBILE HOSPITAL No. 5 
MOBILE Hospital No. 5 was organized during the 
latter part of August, 1918, to assist on the 
American Sector, in the care of seriously wounded 
patients who could not travel back as far as the Evacuation 
Hospital. A nucleus, consisting of 6 officers, 20 nurses and 35 
enlisted men was taken from Base Hospital No. 4. Reinforce- 
ments from the B. E. F. brought it up to the full stiength of 
12 officers, 20 nurses and 85 enlisted men. During the second 
week of September mobilization took place at Parc de Prince, 
Paris. This was headquarters for all Mobile Hospitals. 
Laundry work was efficiently handled in the Mobile 
laundry in spite of the shortage of coal and water. 
All operating room work was divided into 12-hour day 
and night shifts. Surgical teams did that operating with two 
or three tables to a team. 
Ward work was very heavy and depressing because of 
shortage of nurses and men and lack of equipment. 
The American Red Cross rendered invaluable assistance 
by supplementing rations and clothes, and furnishing read- 
ing material, cigarets, candy and other necessities. 
While stationed at Parc de Prince the Unit was in the last 
big air raid on Paris. After a temporary try-out of the equip- 
ment the hospital was sent by rail to Bois de la I lacys for 
the Meuse-Argonne offensive. The hospital site was for- 
merly a French barracks and their huts uere used lor the 
hospital. 
An American cemetery was plotted on the hillside above 
the old French cemetery and all who died were buried there. 
A special memorial service was held for the Americans on 
November 17th at Mobile Hospital No. 5. Chaplain R. E. 
Gribbin of the 3rd Pioneer regiment, assisted by their 
regimental band, fife and drum corps and color bearers, 
and a firing-squad from the 26th division and all members of 
camp, assembled in the recreation hall for a short program, 
then went to the cemetery for last taps. A memorial tablet 
was erected by the hospital (page 105). 
A regular mobile hospital consisting of laundry, x-ray, 
sterilizer, operating room, tents and hospital equipment w as 
used. After unloading at Vadilancourt September 23rd, the 
camp was set up and opened for patients Septembei 25th. 
The bed capacity was 245 with an expansion to 300. Actual 
expansion was 700. The period of greatest work was from 
October 15th to October 21st, when 600 casualties were 
received and cared for. Total number of patients leceived, 
994; number of deaths, 135. 
Air raids occurred nearly every night, but the sheltered 
location of camp protected it. There was no place or time 
for recreation until after the main part of the offensive had 
ended. The old adage “Work when you work and play when 
you play” was very closely adhered to. 
Surgical teams from A. E. F. Base Hospitals were at- 
tached for temporary duty during the greater part of the 
offensive. Patients were seriously wounded soldieis of all 
ranks from the American, French and German armies. 
The first social event was a Hallowe’en masquerade dance 
for nurses and officers. The 90th division regimental band 
furnished the music. 
Baking was done in two rolling kitchens and one 
cook stove during the greater part of the time. All ranks 
ate the same rations. 
October 31st an impromptu concert was given by officers 
and enlisted men for the entire camp.

regiment. Rain kept all celebrations inside the huts. 
Cavalry regimental band. The nurses left camp for Rouen 
December 18th. 
Christmas Day was a day of special dinners for officers 
and enlisted men. New Year’s Day found the camp closed 
and the outfit on its way back from the front. Men were 
demobilized at Joinville and equipment returned to Parc 
de Prince, Paris. 
The Unit entertained Mobile Hospital No. 1 and officers 
of the 308 th Pioneer regiment and 57th Artillery brigade 
December 14th, 1918. 
The officers and enlisted men returned to Base Hospital 
No. 4 at Rouen, January 12th, 1919, bringing about 
100 men who had served with Mobile 5, but came as 
strangers to the Cleveland Unit. When the Unit received 
movement orders for home these men were sent to replace- 
ment camps, as casuals. 
Tuesday, December 17th, at 2 o’clock, orders were re- 
ceived for the nurses to return to Base Hospital No. 4. 
A farewell concert was given the entire camp by the 2nd

26 OLD ROUEN 
IN this enchanting old city we find not only streets and 
houses that are embodied memories of the Middle Ages, 
but also inner courts, humid, mossy and peaceful asclois- 
Rouen owes much of its picturesqueness, as well as its 
importance, to the three rivers which intersect it,—the 
Seme, the Aublette and the Eau de Robec. The Seine, into 
which the English threv the ashes of Jeanne d’Arc in the 
fifteenth centuiy, divides Rouen into two unequal parts 
and makes of it a seaport. “Paris, Rouen and Le Havre,” 
said Napoleon, “are one and the same city of which the 
Seine is the main stieet. At Rouen, the Seine is studded 
with islands, crowded with shipping, traversed by several 
bi idges and boideied with substantial quays on which may 
be observed the varied animal, vegetable and mineral prod- 
ucts, the free ways of sailors, and the heterogeneous activity 
that constitute the fascination of seaports everywhere 
E p stream, La CoteSainte ( atherine and Bon Secours stand 
over against the city much as Arthur’s Seat stands over 
against Edinburgh. Down stream are the heights of 
Canteleu and the fat pastures of Normandy. 
ters, surrounded by balustraded corridors that are ap- 
proached by exquisite spiral latticed stairways. In these 
courts venerable trees stand guard over ornate stone walls; 
dismounted mantelpieces, rich in carving, serve for benches; 
discolored statues and busts lie prone, consoled for their 
downfall by the ivy’s embrace. Doves murmur their soft 
notes and patriarchal rooks hold dusky conclaves. As the 
quarters to which they belong have descended in social scale, 
these courts have long ceased to serve their original purpose 
and have abdicated their original pretensions. But their 
beauty is most appealing in these days of its decay, and 
nowhere do we feel more vividly the spirit of the past. 
Most singular among them all is I’Aitre de Saint-Alaclou, a 
sixteenth century charnel-house replete with the blood- 
curdling beauty of the “Dies Irae,” a spot consummate in 
gruesomeness, consecrated to breedings over death and the 
Judgment. Here is the most complete and lugubrious collec- 
tion conceivable of carved insignia of mortality—spades, 
picks, scythes, hour-glasses, mounds, tombs, funeral crosses, 
skeletons, skulls and tibias, and an extraordinary Dance of 
Death (deemed worthy of a two-volume work by a Rouen 
antiquarian, Henry Langlois), in which old men and boys, 
matrons and maidens, merchants and laborers, masters and 
servants, paupers and princes, soldiers, judges, apothe- 
caries, monks and bishops are pursued by grim Death. 
The Aublette, a mere rivulet which trickles in from the 
country across a market-garden belt, is fringed along its 
course within the town by the tattered backs of ancient, 
neglected, peaked-roofed houses, whose dark-gray dilapi- 
dation it faithfully mirrors. By moonlight it takes on, in 
its illuminated stretches, the sheen of silk or the steely 
luster of polished armor, and its shadows become Cim- 
merian, and the rusty, weather-beaten tenements of its 
banks might pass for palaces of ebony and ivory.

sensate lust for power. I had come to see only the hopeful 
side, the feeling that there was a chance to save them, a 
chance to reclaim them in some useful form for their homes 
and for their country. It was in the days afterwards, when 
I began to sign these poor pitiful inventories of their per- 
sonal effects that my heart was gripped as it never was 
before, and the tears came too easily to my eyes, as I read 
in imagination between the formal lines, the tragedy that 
each contained.

tendon as I was hurriedly signing a number of them that 
I found lying on my desk, and trying to pass by as quickly 
as I could the painful task it had always been to me. 
It happened that I had known this boy back home. I 
knew his widowed mother; I knew his devoted sister, and 
I thought I remembered the sweet young girlish face in 
the photograph. I had .seen him as I made my rounds of 
the hospital the same morning that he was brought in 
one of the convoy ambulances from the train in Rouen. 
He was lying then in a clean bed with white sheets and 
clean pillow, the first he had had since he entered the 
Army. His face was pale, his breathing was short, rapid, 
and shallow, but his eyes were bright and not a murmur, 
not a groan escaped him, though as I looked at his field 
card I read the fateful words, "shrapnel wound, left chest, 
S. 1., seriously injured”. In a moment it flashed into my 
memory, that little humble home in New England, the 
hard-working, saving, struggling mother whose very life 
was wrapped up in her love and ambition for her only 
boy who was giving up his life over here in France, thousands 
of miles from one who loved him more than life itself, and

THIS is one of the pathetic little papers that I had 
been signing day after day as the war went on and 
death took its relentless toll from thebraveboyswhohad 
come to join the Allies, and were giving their young lives 
so freely on the Western Front, cheered and buoyed up 
by their sense of the vital necessity of their personal sacri- 
fice for the freedom and honor of their country, and by 
that chivalrous adventuresome ambition of every normal 
boy to help the oppressed and downtrodden, and to spring 
to the rescue of the weak. 
I confess long months of constant contact had taken 
the bitter edge off of the impressions which came to me 
when I first saw convoy aftei convoy bringing into om

ERN IN 52EAK2-, whose remaining years were destined to be those of sorrow 
and of poverty. I stopped at his bedside and spoke to him 
as cheerfully as I could, though hope died in me as I watched 
his vain effort to answer, but the wan smile that spread 
over his face showed that he recognized me and that he 
was glad to know some friend was near. I told him I would 
write to his mother, and the loving look that came into his 
eyes told me what she meant to him. 
to his mother to hear how much he had been loved by his 
comrades, howr cheerful and hopeful he always was, how 
his young musical voice and his songs from the little hymn 
book were a part of the cheer and pleasure he gave to 
others. It was nothing strange, or new either, but I knew- it 
would fill his mother’s and sister’s hearts, and perhaps, too, 
that of the girl in the photograph with pride to know that 
though death might have been his fate on that terrible 
night when they cut through the barbed wire entangle- 
ments and stormed the Hun’s trenches and held their 
ground through counter attack after counter attack, yet 
he had lost his life in a noble effort to go out over the top 
to bring back one of his comrades who was lying wounded 
there in the full field of the enemy’s fire. It wasn’t much of 
a story. It had happened many times in many places 
along the line that night. The hearts of our boys beat true 
and danger counted little when a comrade’s life was at 
stake. Yet, I could feel what that would mean to the heart- 
broken woman at home. He would be her hero forever, 
and “years could not dim nor memory lessen” the 
glory that would surround this sacrifice that her hero 
boy had made. 
The surgeons operated upon him that morning. The 
ragged piece of shrapnel had crashed through the little 
hymn book leaving its jagged track through every leaf and 
cover, and then rushing on unstopped, it went through the 
white skin and warm young flesh behind it, tearing its way 
until it rested near the heart. A day of hoping against hope 
followed its removal. I visited the young soldier several 
times during his last hours. He could barely speak. Each 
effort was agonizing, but it was always of his mother that 
he tried to speak, except once when a new light came into 
his eyes, a look of abandoned hope as he mentioned the 
name of the young girl whose photograph 1 found latei 
among his effects. 
And finally he was gone, one more precious sacrifice 
for liberty and justice. 
So I wrote to her, and 1 told her too that I had followed 
her son to the beautiful cemetery at St. Sever; that I had 
seen the Stars and Stripes wrapping her boy in their proud 
colors; that six other American soldiers had carried him 
on their shoulders to the grave; and that British and Amer- 
ican Officers were there to do him honor; and that a British 
firing squad had fired their three volleys over her soldier- 
boy’s grave; and that the bugle had softly sounded taps, 
and a Chaplain had been there to pray over her boy and 
to commend him to the throne of One where Justice and 
Peace reign forever. 
I wanted to fulfill my promise and write to his mother, 
but the task was a sorrowful one, one that I would have 
gladly shifted to some one else. Before I did so, I thought 
I would try to find out something about his life in camp, 
his actions in battle, anything that might be comforting 
to the dear little lonesome mother at home, something 
that might make her heart fill with pride as well as sorrow, 
and lessen the bitterness of her loss. 
It happened that one of the boys from his own company, 
his own regiment, had entered the hospital at the same 
time, but as the Huns had only succeeded in gassing him, 
I was able to find out something about young . 
It wasn’t much as things went at the hiont, deeds of dat- 
ing, of bravery, and self-sacrifice were performed on every 
hand and on every day, but I knew it would be of comfort 
And I added, too, for it was a fact, that along side of 
him was laid another hero of this war, a woman, a nurse 
from our hospital, who had died at her post of duty from 
the scourge which was sweeping through our camps in 
those days. A little rude cross marks the place, and on it

there, wreaths and sprays; from whence they came I knew 
not, but watchful eyes and tender hearts were taking- 
care that our brave boys should not be forgotten, and per- 
haps when the Spring comes, green grass will be growing 
there, and red poppies will spring up, and careful, tender 
hands will see that her boy is not forgotten, and it would be 
a comfort to her, I was sure, to know it. 
could not have wished him to stay at home. He loved his 
Country, and he joyfully accepted the opportunity to 
serve. I feel that in his death, I too, have made the greatest 
sacrifice that a woman can make to her Country, and my 
heart is filled with sorrow, but my soul looks up with pride. 
The ring which I gave him with my love when he went 
away has come back to me. I appreciate so much the 
watchful care that has sent me these precious little things 
that belonged to my dear boy. I shall never be able to go to 
France, but it is so good to know that others will give their 
loving care to his grave that I would want to give. I am 
trying my best to be brave, and to do here at home what 
little 1 can for our soldiers in France. 
The poor little Dorothy Bag containing the pitifully 
few effects must be sent to her “through Channels , but 1 
knew she would get it, and I knew how she would treasure 
it, and she would know if no one else did, that the reason 
there were only “francs 2.65 in his small money pouch 
was because he had sent everything to her that the allot- 
ment provisions of the Government would permit. He 
needed little in this foreign country, and he knew how much 
it all meant to the little household at home. 
Gratefully, 
Elizabeth 
It was a long time after I had written home to his mother 
before I received a reply, for mails traveled slowly in those 
days. 
Not very much of a story, is it? Almost as pitifully 
devoid of all that goes to make up a story, as was the little 
Dorothy Bag with its few itemized personal effects compared 
with what the boy in peace times in his own home loves 
to call his own. And yet it is the story of hundreds, yes, 
thousands of the best and bravest boys our Country has 
produced, the story of one of the millions who have gone 
from our beloved Country to win freedom and liberty for 
us and for all, and it does not need wealth, or position, or 
influence, or special act of glory to make the unbidden 
tear come to our eyes or the throat tighten, and the heart 
soften when one reads the inventory of the effects of one 
of these, our fallen heroes. 
It was a plainly written letter just speaking from the 
heart in a mother’s way, and I feel that I may add it here, 
for it rings true in its simplicity and in its ardent pati ioi ism.

My Dear Major , 
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kind 
letter about my son. I loved him, you know how I loved 
him, and I needed him, no one but my daughter and my-

TA&& “DALYMAY” 
NUYOKERALD DALYMAY”! at the sound of these 
curious words all work is forgotten, meals are al- 
lowed to be burned or become cold, the fire goes 
out, the bath-tub overflows, one stands ankle deep in mud 
or wTater without a thought of its effect on one s health, a 
nurse is seen bending over the shoulder of an officer or the 
officer may be seen slapping a soldier on the back, saving 
“that’s the stuff to give ’em.” 
Each day, rain or shine, a little rosy-cheeked, bright- 
eyed Frenchman who has seen many summers, cycles out 
to our camp, a distance of about four miles from town, dis- 
mounts and begins his rounds. From office to mess-hall, 
from ward to barrack, and through each company street 
he goes, sending forth the joyous cry of “Nuyokerald 
DALYAIAY,” which being interpreted means “New York 
Elerald—DAILY MAIL”; hence the joy, for this is the 
link which connects us with the great chain of momentous 
events in all parts of the world. On Fridays he adds “Stars 
and Stripes” and “La Vie Parisenne,” which does not 
seem quite so attractive to the ladies and some of our more 
gentle boys. I wonder why! 
If the Boche could grasp the importance of this cry and 
its magic effect on our soldiers, he would in all probability 
use it to entice our boys into his traps. 
“What does it all mean,” you ask? Picture yourself in a 
war-ridden country, in the midst of a foreign people and no 
communication with the outside world, except that of long 
delayed mail. Of course one hears many tales from the par- 
ticular front behind which he is serving, but only from that 
He speaks no English, and we but little French; never- 
theless, we all understand his welcome call. So this little 
French brother has won the hearts of all.

38 “ BUCKSHEES” 
DAILY MAIL, AUGUST 2, 1918 
BUCKSHEE” is one of the most over-worked words 
in the vocabulary of the New Army. Where it came 
form nobody seems to know. The Indian Army is 
said to have coined it, but it does not figure in any of Air. 
Kipling’s stories. Perhaps the Egyptian Army got hold of 
“backsheesh” and anglicised it. 
say, by a scowl—as he is marched out of the orderly 
room. He is brought back just as the sergeant-major has 
shouted to the police-corporal, “One hour’s pack,” and is 
given an additional hour to teach him better manners. 
Then, as he is marched out the second time the sergeant- 
major adds, “And one hour buckshee!” 
“Buckshee” means “something for nothing.” If, after 
the “gippo” has been rationed out, a little of the stew is left 
in the dixie, you will hear the sergeant shout out: “Who 
wants a buckshee bit?” The lucky fellow who lights up a 
cigarette when cigarettes are very few and far between will 
be greeted on all sides by the cry, “Got a buckshee, mate?” 
Like all words that your real soldier-man favours, it is made 
to serve a variety of purposes. 
An unpaid lance-corporal wears a buckshee stripe. 
When the Army Council issued the instruction that all 
second-lieutenants of 18 months’ service should be pro- 
moted full lieutenants and thousands of junior subs rushed 
into the nearest town to purchase their second “pips,” 
those were called buckshee pips. D. S. O.’s given to hard- 
working staff officers on the Whitehall front and D. C. Al.’s 
awarded to master bakers in “cushy” base billets are buck- 
shee decorations. The recent increase in Tommy’s pay was 
known throughout the Army as “the buckshee tanner.” 
A buckshee man is a man too many when a fatigue has 
been numbered off. If he is lucky he may be told to stay be- 
hind; but more often than not he is given a buckshee shovel 
and told to carry on. 
Really, it is difficult to think of any occasion when the 
word cannot be used in some way or another. But there is 
one, at least. At the termination of hostilities Tommy 
is determined to see to it that the Boche gets no 
buckshee peace! 
Sometimes a man who is brought up before his company 
commander for a minor offense and given an hour s pack- 
drill will be ill-advised enough to resent it somewhat openly 
“GRAMOPHONES” 
WHENEVER I hear the tinkle of a gramophone after 
this war, it will all come back to me,” an officer 
remarked the other day. 
Nearly every mess has its gramophone. You hear them 
in the most unlikely places. 
As one goes up to the trench at night and passes the last 
battered house where the road ends and the communication 
trench begins a crack in the mud-plastered wall reveals a 
candle on a biscuit tin and two or three weirdly lit faces 
listening to the strains of the latest revue. And somehow the 
witching rhythm of a waltz refrain bringing memories of 
happier days in London has a strangely heartening effect on 
the laden men stumbling on the cracked trench boards. 
and then through the grey monotonous day that moment 
was longed for. 
Once we played our gramophone on the parapet to con- 
ceal the clickings of a wiring party. Some enterprising Boche 
retaliated for the sake of the Fatherland’s musical reputa- 
tion with a solo on a mouth-organ. 
In hospital, the same old tunes. 
“Oh, Mr. Smith, please don’t start that awful thing 
yet!” a “fed-up” sister will exclaim. 
“Righto, sister. I was only going to play the overture 
before ‘Fatty’ goes to the theatre!” 
“Fatty” smiled feebly. Perhaps the joke was not fully 
appreciated by him, as his operation was coming on that 
morning. 
But six hours after the operation a feeble voice was 
heard from a mass of bandages: 
“I say, sister, do you think doctor would mind if we had 
a tune? It bucks one up so!” 
We always took our gramophone to the trenches, and, 
after tea (no dainty affair, but a solid “tuck in” on sardines 
and tinned fruits) we used to gather round for a chat and 
a tune—all except the officer on duty. Letters would come,

42 A LETTER FROM THE ASSOCIATION OF “FRENCH HOMES” 
Les Terraces, 171 Rue de Renard, Rouen, March 13, 1919. 
Monsieur Le Colonel Bunts, 
My Dear Colonel: 
thoughts and our pleasures may at least have a more correct 
conception of our family life. 
My ignorance of your language necessitated my asking- 
one of my friends for a translation of your farewell letter. 
That which you said in your letter proves that far from 
your own families you have found in ours exactly what we 
wished you to experience. We desired to replace for a 
moment your absent fireside, the home to which you will 
soon return to receive the welcome which awaits the absent 
and the conquerors. 
Madame Blondel and I were profoundly touched by the 
friendly and moving terms in which you expressed yourself. 
During the course of the war we like so many others were 
the sufferers of so much of anguish that it was difficult for 
us to think or speak of other sentiments than those which so 
naturally and deeply touched our hearts. 
In the winter evenings may your assembled families, wives, 
children and little ones learn from you to know better the 
private life of the families whom you have met, and perhaps 
like you they may cherish the memory and perhaps the 
remembrance will nourish in them the desire to visit them 
in their turn. You may be sure that if they do they will be 
most heartily welcomed. 
After the brilliant success which has crowned the efforts 
of ourselves and our allies we were peculiarly happy in 
being able to express our joy, and oiu recognition of those 
friends whose co-operation had been so precious. 
My fellow citizens have wished to do me the great honor 
of placing me at the head of the association of ‘French 
Homes’ in order to show to the representatives of the United 
States our entire admiration as well as our full recognition 
of their invaluable co-operation. It is also our mission at 
the same time to make you acquainted with the French 
family life. 
As for you we shall retain the most delightful and sym- 
pathetic remembrance of your too short stay and your name 
and those of your friends, of all our American friends both 
men and women, will often be upon our lips. 
These happy meetings have truly made the world seem 
smaller, let us hope they will help to make it better. You 
will at least have the merit of having contributed your part. 
Our literature, our modern theatre, above all, the high 
life of Paris, have unfortunately given to the stranger an 
extremely imperfect conception of this life. 
With our best remembrances to all for you and your 
friends of the Medical Corps and the delightful nurses 
whom we have had so much pleasure in knowing, 1 hope you 
will accept, my dear Colonel, the expression of my most sin- 
cere compliments with my best wishes for your happy return. 
You, my dear Colonel, and your friends who have dwelt 
intimately with us for a few weeks, you who have known our 
Very cordially, 
Emile Blondel.

44 JEFFERSON THE FOURTH 
VICTOR GRAYSON, M. P. 
The author of this article was a former member of Parliament in England. Early in the near he enlisted as a private in the 
Canterbury Infantry Brigade. He was admitted to our hospital just after the Camhrai push in October, 1917. 
No. 141 is a sketch of Victor Grayson made in the ward where he was a patient, and where he was known as “Daddy ’ ’ by 
his fellow-patients whom he kept in good spirits with his keen wit and solid philosophy. 
In this article Victor Grayson has told of the life in a Surgical Ward, with the hand oj the scholar, statesman, and 
writer- adding to it that touch of realism that only comes by experience, and he was a real soldier. 
BY counting the smiles of more than usual expansive- 
ness on the faces of my fellow-patients, I am able to 
pick out, with tolerable exactness, the number whom 
the Major Medico has marked for Blighty. We are a motley 
assembly of English, Irish, Scotch. Australian, New Zea- 
land and American wounded, all being “hustled with clean 
efficiency and genial tenderness into fitness for transpoi t to 
England—and the central magnet which drew us together 
for the fight lost none of its attractiveness in our suffering. 
We all want Blighty, with all the poignant longing of the 
baby in the soap advertisement. 
That is, all with the exception of Jefferson. Jefferson 
wants the blood of the Boche, and though he will never “hop 
the bags” again, his righteous ferocity is untamable by 
pain. 
I had been Jefferson’s neighbor for some days before 1 
obtained a conversation with him, and after that conversa- 
tion, I understood. He lies within a wooden framework, his 
leg and thigh suspended on pulleyed cords, and the agony 
he endures in every twenty-four hours is but faintly indi- 
cated by the mad graphs of the temperature chart above his 
pain-wrinkled forehead. 
I was somewhat startled when I heard his muffled 
chuckle at my elbow. Someone had lent him a mirror, and 
he was beholding—with the first symptoms of merriment 
hitherto evinced—the straggling beard on his pinched face. 
“Me father’d git a fright if ’e see’d me now!” he wheezed. 
“Y’ see! Th’ ole man’s bin clean-shaved sin’ ’e were born!” 
Jefferson’s amusement at his own reflection led him on 
to a few disclosures concerning himself. He received his 
terrible “smack-up” from a shell at Ypres. Since the very 
outbreak of the war, he has been in the trenches and several 
times “over the top,” but while he kept away from the Ypres 
sector, the bullets and shells and gas of the enemy were 
powerless to harm him. 
“Y’ see, mate!” he explained. “Three of me brothers was 
killed—one after t’other—at Wipers. An’ I ses to me pal, 
jus’ afore the shell burst—I ses, ‘They’ll git me at this 
damned place, see if they don’t!’ An’ the words ’ad barely 
left me lips when one lobs jus’ infronto’ me, killin’ me pal an’ 
leavin’ me for dead. ‘That’s Jefferson, number four,’ ses I, 
as they bumped me along in the stretcher, ‘but ya woulden’ 
a got me if I ’adn’t gone to Wipers.’ An’ there’s the fifth an 
last to come, when ’e’s old enough!” 
I pointed out cheerfully that the link of coincidence was 
missing in his case, as the Boche had not succeeded in killing 
him. “Not yit!” he agreed, and added, “I’m willin’ to bet a 
hundred to one that the swine ’ll never kill me—unless the}' 
send us to Wipers! Wipers is no bon for the Jeffersons!” 
The effect and excitement had taxed his feeble resources 
and a reproving sister approached to apply the closure. 
“Sister,” whispered the fourth Jefferson, with a 
smile, “The ole man’d git an awful fright if ’e see’d 
me whiskers now!”

brain u too running to be employed in perfecting

Ex-President Poosevelt supplies a foreword to 
tfae book, in which he sums up the activities of 
these secret agents in America in his own forceful 
«*y. 
“For the last two and a hall years,” he writes, 
various Trimina!?, by the direct instigation ot ib© 
German Government, have been using America m 
a base for war against the Allied; and more than 
th»X hare in effect been waging waKon os within

seas. Germany has waged war against & aganflM 
our property, and against the'lives of non-com- 
batants, including women and children, and there- 
fore a far more evil war than one waged openly. } 
A brief review and some exb acts from the book 
will be sufficient to give an idea of the widespread 
nature of these activities, and to show the absolute 
necessity fer constant watchfulness. Incidentally, 
it adds yet another Hok to the'chain of evidei&e

75 GENSEMER’S STORY 
TWAS a sadly disillusioned young person who was 
vomited forth from the great transport onto the docks 
of an eastern port. The war had been a great disap- 
pointment to him. He fully intended going home by the back 
way and not appearing until he had obtained raiment that 
did not hurt his pride. 
He praises our army sparingly, condemns the British, 
French and Italians and speaks of Ypres, Arras, Cambrai, 
Messines, and Paschendale with the familiarity of long 
residence. He knows the northern part of the line like a book 
and is able to tell the brother of a deceased Canadian the 
exact location of his relative’s grave. 
However, the cheering crowd and liberal Red Cross 
came as a surprise to him. It seemed that people classed 
him with the soldiers. His drooping spirits began to revive 
and his imagination to take stock of itself. Possibly he had 
underestimated his services a bit. 
He generally commences, “Early in T7 I was attached 
to the 4th Australian ‘divvy.’ We were holding a trench 
to the left of Messines when the fire works started. Now 
don’t misunderstand me. I was not in the infantry. At the 
time I had charge of a squad of ‘litter-bearers.’ The ridge 
was blown up, as you know, and we went over yelling like 
mad. 
On the way to camp folks wonderingly asked him what 
division wore the Roman two, eagle, and lion, and he, 
timidly at first, then brazenly, as he saw what an impression 
it made, said “This ain’t no division, this is an army corps; 
I belong to the second corps.” 
“Somehow I became separated from my unit. I had been 
so busy killing the Germans (Oh no, the killing of a few Ger- 
mans never disturbed me), that I did not notice that I was 
alone. Suddenly I found myself surrounded by overwhelm- 
ing numbers of the enemy. There was nothing I could do but 
surrender (have you noticed that I shiver continually? 
That is from the effect of gas. Got it at Cambrai while 
bringing in the wounded. Nearly died of it). As I was say- 
ing, I surrendered. 
At the demobilization camp his spirits fell again. Three 
days “K. P.”, an endless stream of pots and pans. It be- 
came evident why there was a grease shortage in France. 
To clap the climax his treasured trousers, hidden away these 
many months for the trip home, would stand the wear no 
longer. A fatherly quartermaster exchanged them for an- 
other pair of wondrous color and size. 
Then the last day came. He donned the trousers, pulled 
them up under his arm pits, put safety pins farther down 
to act as belt straps, and sallied forth once more a full man. 
“That evening I was taken to divisional headquarters. 
I was the first American they had encountered and you can 
imagine what an impression I made. The General com- 
manding the sector was there with his staff. I walked in 
with confident mien as befits a free-born citizen. 
Now a very, very little urging will make him talk. The 
relative merits of himself and General Pershing are set 
forth in a few concise phrases, not giving the latter too 
much credit. It is easy to see where Pershing’s nomination 
for the presidency would have been the ruination of the 
Republican Party. 
“They asked me all manner of questions until I finally 
became disgusted, pulled out a gun which I had concealed 
in an arm pit holster and shot the most officious of them. 
As this weapon had been equipped with a Alaxim-silencer 
76 it created no disturbance among the guards outside but 
brought every hand above head in the room. I forced the 
General to gag and tie his companions and, after gathering 
up an immense bundle of documents, I fared forth taking 
my General with me. 
In some things his memory is short. He now believes he 
enlisted the day after war was declared, and forgets entirely 
some of the more menial features of his soldiering. His ex- 
perience with strangely shaped tin-ware containers is a 
closed chapter in his life, the skeleton in the closet, as it 
were. 
“Just before dawn the bedraggled commander and my- 
self entered the British lines. Believe me, were it not for the 
information which I brought back, the catastrophe of March 
21st, 1918, would have occurred that summer and would 
have meant final victory for Germany. What did they give 
me for it? Nothing! Nothing! It is another example of 
British discrimination against us Americans. Douglas Haig 
got the whole credit for that affair. 
He openly boasts of being a volunteer and says he would 
volunteer again although he knows that it would be in 
something safe and sane. Not the Medical Corps to be sure, 
but probably the Quartermaster Corps, having observed 
that the latter offers such splendid opportunities for a 
young man to get ahead financially. 
“But speaking of March 21st reminds me—what! You 
have to go? Now that’s too bad. Well, see you later.” 
To tell the truth, he misses the bunch and the old easy 
days a little. He would like to gather around with the rest 
to curse the administration of the Unit and the war in 
general. 
As time goes on the stories change slightly. They gain 
rather than lose in vigor and originality. By 1920 Ananias 
should be turning over in his grave with envy. 
He is working for a living now

The Cause 
THEY ARE 
ALIVE 
THEY LOOK LIKE 
CRABS BUT ARE 
MUCH SMALLER 
ONE OF THEM 
They are gray. 
The female of the species burrows in the skin and -causes 
the disease. The male only make rounds. 
They are bloodsuckers. 
They live in blankets and clothes. 
They hredd and lay eggs or •• nits ~ in seams of clothing, 
especially the trousers, and on the pubic hairs like crab lice. 
Frequent bathing keeps down the population 
The favorite'sites are the arm pits, elbows, wrists, butt ocks 
thighs, penis, and between the fingers and toes. Kever above 
the neck, 
RESULTS 
TREATMENT

boils; and you will be an UNPOPULAR candidate for a hospital.

MOBILE Hospital No. 5 was snugly nestled in the mud of a little ravine at Les Places, twelve kilometers north of Verdun. It was the early part of 
December, 1918, and the last of the straggling patients who had come in after the Armistice, were leaving. In a hollow, yonder, however, there rose a 
mist of tiny white crosses vibrating in the sunshine which had come after many weeks of incessant rain and gloom. 
As the commanding officer paced to and fro that morning biting hard on his unlit cigar he was probably thinking of the lads in that hollow who 
wouldn’t go back. He knew that his last patients were leaving with faces wreathed in happy smiles in anticipation of the homeland awaiting them, and the 
members of his command too were smiling, for movement orders were expected at any time. The noise of the guns had ceased for several weeks now and 
with the passing of the rush and overwork there came those moments in which one has time to reflect. The Colonel sat down and dashed off this splendid 
tribute to our fallen heroes as his thoughts crystalized into this little gem of appreciation. He thought nothing of it at the time, but some of his staff saw it 
and the boys printed it in large letters, protected with a glass, frame, and sunshade, and set it up in the midst of their fellow countrymen whom they must 
needs leave behind to guard forever the land which they died to save. 
The soldier who printed the tribute, that now speaks out from among the wooden crosses, brought a copy of it back to America and printed it again 
for this album, and we here reproduce it again under the title “A TRIBUTE TO THOSE WHO WON’T COME BACK”. ROSTER OF BASE HOSPITAL No. 4, U. S. A
