iBirt-i- i 1 THE CADUCEUS. OFFICERS’ PAGE (BY LIBXJT, WILLIAM L. MUNSON.) ANOTHER MAJOR FRANK LAHEY OF BpSTON ON OPERATING ROOM STAFF. Among the recent assignments to the U. S. Army base hospital, Camp Greene, N. C., we 0nd the name of Major Frank Lahey of Boston, Mass. Major Lahey was a surgeon of con siderable prominence in and about the Huh city having been connected with the Boston City hospital for a num ber of years, and Tufts Medical School at the University there. Upon entering the services on June 29 last he was award Jd a commis sion as captain but unusual abilities soon won promotion for him and on the twentieth of July he received his conmission to the rank of major. His first duties here called him to the receiving ward where he had charge of that department for some time, this week, however, he was transferred to duty on the operating room staff. GOES TO ALLENTOWN. Major Hubbard, who was chief of the surgical service here for three months, has gone to Allentown to join Base i-iospital No. 92. If all the officers who want to go with Major Hubbard, are assigned by the war de partment, he will have a good compli ment for them from base hospital, ■Camp Greene. Capt. William P. Evans, who for the past eight months has been receiving 'officer, of this hospital, left last week for the base hospital at Camp Merritt, where he has charge of two medical wards. During his slay at Camp Green the captain madem any friends w. o Aver . sorry to see him go. One by one the old guard who keeps the. lamps trimmed and burning during the ' inter, are leaving us. There is a twinge of sadness in saying good- uye to them. Captain Darling entertained Majors Lahey and Wayland, and Captain Stockard With an automobile ride If s' Monday evening. The report is that they were in high all the time. Things went very nicely until it was discov ered that Major Wayland started the ride in the phase of respiration known as expiration and had not caught his breath since the beginning of the bride. Waiting for the major .to adjust his breathing apparatus made the party a few seconds late in getting home. TOOK DAKIN COURSE. Captain Cook, Lieutenants C. C. Cleveland and William L. Munson, who have been taking the Dakin Course at the Rockefeller Institute in New York and have returned to this station for duty. MACK RETURNS. Secretary Ed. McMann, after being absent from duty from the Base Hos pital, K. of C. building for a month on account of_ injuries to his knee, is back on the job again. The boys at the camp are very glad to see Mack at his post again, JUST FOR FUN. It happened in New York. Lieutenant; “Does this car stop at the Battery?” Irish Conductor: “If it don’t be gobs you’re going to have a good swim.” —Captain Darling. Lieutenant Tidinarsh, formerly of thish ospital, who has been taking the Dakin Course at the Rockefeller In stitute, New York, is now .at Camp Lee, Va. / Mrs. Young is visiting her husband. Captain Young. NEW MANAGER ARRIVES H. L. Brundage arrived last Wed nesday to take charge of the Soldiers’ Club. Mr. Jrundage is a Club expert and thoroughly understands his Work. He comes direct from New York from which he ws sent by the War Camp Community Service. One morning the major of the bat talion took a particularly well-drilled company out for their morning drill and afterwards he made a nice littT'e speech to the men telling them how well they did and how good they look ed. Pat, who had not been in the service so very long, thought that he would compliment his drill master, which was done alter this fashion: “Be jakers, sergeant, that was a dandy speech you made us.” “Why I’m not a sergeant. I’m a major.” “Don’t worry,” responded the Celt, “you soon will be a sergeant, you re a dang smart fellow.” —Lieutenant Munson. The Parker Ry.
