■ - , ! THE CADUCEUS OUR FIRST ONES SECOND LIEUTENANTS MADE FROM DETACHMENT RANKS The grave fellows, clustered with all the poise of future colonels, under the spreading oak tree, which has shadowed so many of our detachment troubles, are the first of the non-commissioned officers of the U. S. Army base hospital to be commissioned as second lieutenants. They have gone to their new posts of duty and carry with them the finest wishes of the enlisted men of the hospital. They had been at the base hos pital nearly a year and have every one “made good” in the departmnts in which they were engaged. They have been transferred to the sanitary de partment of the army. The names of the men standing, from left to right, are William Moore, P. J. Dempsey and Edward Ambach. Seated, from leff to right, are William Balmain, Monroe Zunder, Rolland Killingback and Charles Estes. P. J. Dempsey had acted as Top Sergeant for the detachment for eleven months and on last Saturday morning he attended his last reveille in order to say a few words of farewell. In part he said: “We have been together for quite a while. I have felt deeply the co-operation of you men. We have rtaveled some rough roads together. It was your help which brought us through with a fine record. For every man I leave my best wishes for a successful army career.” VOLUNTEER TO HELP. Wives of two Camp Green officers and one whose husband is with the hospital corps in Prance volunteere ‘ their services as waitresses for the tea room at the Red Circle Inn during the past week, and in the failure of the management to secure other help, will probably continue for another week. Patrons of the Inn who include officers and their families, soldiers, and civil ians have spoken highly of the service. At present no evening meals or noon day Sunday dinners are served, break fast 'and week-day luncheons being the specialties. JEWISH WELFARE. Mr. .Tack Silverman, of Providence, R. I., has been added to the staff of the Jewish Welfare Board in Camp Greene. The Jewish boys of this camp had the time of their lives while away on furloughs for the .Jewish New Year.
