THE CADUCEUS OFFICERS’ PAGE . (BY LIEUT. WILLIAM L. MUNSON.) GETS GOLD LEAF GOES TO HEADQUARTERS. r CAN BUY BONDS MAJORITY COMES TO PHILLIP A. SHEAFF. The bright gold leaf will be showing in the most seemly fashion on both shoulders of the former Captain Phil lip A. Sheaff, assistant to the com manding officer, George A. Renn, when the latest made major returns from a brief leave, next week. The com mander’s assistant was commissioned as a major last week. Major Sheaff has been at the base hospital since October 31, 1917. He has been in the medical service of the army since April 7, 1917. He was com missioned a first lieutenant on April 25, 1917, and was in training at Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana, until July 27. From that time until the last of August, Phillip A. Sheaff was in medical research training at Rockefeller Institute. His first assign ment was to Port Oglethorpe, Ga., from which post he was moved to Camp Greene in October. On February 12, 1918, he was com missioned a captain. A few days later Captain Sheaff, who had been acting as assistant to the adjutant, was made hospital adjutant. During the past few months the present Major Sheaff has been assistant to Lieutenant-Colonel Renn. First Lieutenant Walter Mytinger, M C who lor many months has been registra of the U. S. A.

With the opening of the Fourth Lib erty Loan campaign, came many re quests from the officers, nurses and enlisted men as to the procedure nec essary for them to buy bonds direct from the government, as was the poi- icy of Uncle Sam in the previou^s loan issues. Accordingly, Lieutenant-Colonel George A. F. Renn, the commanding officer of the U. S. A. base hospital, Camp Greene, N. C., selected Majoi Joseph H. Way, chief of the recon struction service, to attend to the needs of those on duty at the hospital. In the competitive loan suhscrip* tions conducted at this camp a 5'®ar ago Major Way was in charge of the solicitations at the hospital and was astonishingly successful but with the present flotation of bonds the policy of the government has altered some what and no one in the service will be asked to buy a bond unless they feel that their monthly allowance will permit it. Those of the officers, nurses or en listed men of the hospital personnel desiring further information can con sult with Major Way at his office in Ward E-3. Lieutenants Upton and Schleussner are confined to the officers’ ward. Major Sheaff is on a ten-days’ leave at his home in Philadelphia, Pa.
