Now that its part in the act ion North of Verdun ia finished, the Division Commander wishes to take occasion to express his deep appreciation of the skill. endurance snd coursge shown by the officers and men of the Di vision including both staff snd line in the most difficult snd pro longed fight Everything wu prepared to our success. We had the determined enemy in our front snd one skilled by four years of warfare, whereas, this the first real fight of our Di vision. If oat days the westher wu bad and the ground difficult added to the facts that the fight wu largely in woods. On ac count of woods, ravines and dampness. Gassing of our troops wu easily secomplished snd full advantags wu taken by the en emy, of which gas wu the old story without exception. The ornnixatkms of the Division snd thsar Commanders responded heroically to every call upon them and at the end of the fight we had not only gained our object ives, bat we held them snd turn ed them over to our successors. We advanced some eight kilo meters through the enemy's trenches snd captured over 2,100 prisoners, 7 cannon, about 200 machine guns snd a Urge quanti ty of miscellaneous military property. We had the pleasure of seeing two hostile enemy di visions withdrawn, one of which wu composed of some of the bast troops in the German Army. On many occasions cap- tared prisoners stated that our atstet wu so rapid snd our fire u effective that they were over whelmed snd hsd nothing to do but retire or surrender. In this ssmmjng up the results of the first, the Division Commander fs;!l that every officer and man ptsn- tizj ex in txecuting should feel j:t priie ia what hu beensc c;si Ttisls but repeat isj j trtiM that hu been be stowed Bon the Division by both Arrrlsta snd French superior Cc":ndera.

The Board feels that unless the people are made to re alize the dangers that often fol low influenza, that many an un suspected rase of tuberculosis will develop. Not only weeks but months are some times required for a complete recovery from in fluenza. As a matter of fact, if the lungs have become involved, the period of recovery as well as the treatment should be essential ly the same as for a case of lung tuberculosis. Not to take proper time for full recuperation fre quently awakens slumbering tubercular proces, snd leads to serious active cases. According to the case-histories of tuberculosis patients, a large number of them date the begin ning of their illness to s case of grippe or influenza. There are three signs, says the Board, which call for an examin ation of the lungs. The first is that "tired, worn-out feeling, the second is a "cough or cold that hangs on", and the third is a rise of temperature, however slight, in the afternoon. Any of these signs should demand ready attention and a prompt examina tion by a good physician. If the lungs are found free from jtufieg culosis, every effort should be made to keep them so. This can be done by right living, good food, and plenty of fresh air. Cough medicines are not only worthless at this point, but de ceive the patient by making him ose valuable time in taking the proper treatment for tubercu- osis. If the lungs are found in fected, proper treatment should be taken at a sanatorium or st home under the direction of a good physician.
