'TOMMY' IS I STOIC Battle Wounds Fail to Shake British Soldier. I Doctor Gets New Conception of Word Patriotism In Caring for Wounded at the Front Medical Service Highly Efficient. Chicago. "The Miracle of the Fighting Men'' suggests itself as a pretty good caption for the following ' Interview, writes Charlea N. Wheelor I In the Chicago Tribune. Doctor Chancellor waa one of the Chicago unit that crossed over last June to take charge of a base hospital up near the French fighting line. Only English wounded and sick were brought to this hospital. The dootor had six months of It not all of the time In the base hos pital. In the sector in which Doctor Chan cellor was working they bad accom modations for some 30.000 wounded and sick. In his own base hospital , forty miles back from the Bret line of trenches, they cared for 1.000 un der normal conditions. After one of the "drives'' they crowded it up to 1,500. ' "The human mind la a wonderful thing," aaid Doctor Chancellor while reating at his club. "I don't know Just how many thou sand wounded we handled. But In the six months I did not hear a aingle con scious man groan. It was the same with the seriously wounded not a sound or a protest. Only those who had been rendered unconscious gave expression to the shock. It was In voluntary. The English boys took their medi cine quietly. It was a strange revela tion thla modern type of the Spartan. In the six months, working all the time among the wounded and the sick, I didn't hear a single man swear. I didn't hear a single loud voice. "And there was no fear anywhere. "I thought I knew what was meant by the word patriotism. 1 had no con ception of it until we got to work be hind the trenches. Some of the men were badly hit. The wounda made by shells were nasty. But not a whimper out of one of them except the unconscious. They asked no questions, offered no protests simply did what you told them did It with no thought of the death that was all around them. 'For their country' waa. the only thought that possessed their minds. The ordinary human thoughts had left them almost entirely. I have no Idea of how long the war la going to run. 1 have no means of knowing what the resources of the bel ligerents are or what the programs are. "All I know Is that the British on this front will fight as long as they get ammunition and food, and they will fight, If they can get ammunition, without much concern about the regu larity of the meals. "The whole world seems to know now about the French. Wonderful people they are. Their Inspiration is beyond us ordinary mortals. They die gladly and quietly. Their invo cations are all for beautiful France. "I was educated for a time in Ger many and I know something of the great efficiency of the German medical staff. But I don't think Germany out classes In this war the French and English medical department, for the latter Is about as near perfect ca hu man brains can make it. "We had no typhoid. That is a very Important statement at this time. How Is It accounted for? Vaccination and patriotism. The men stand in muddy trenchea, but they are out in the open. They think only of their country of the empire. "That was the big surprise for all of us no typhoid. The medical organi sation of the R. A. M. C. Is most ex traordinary. ,. It is simply efficiency built on common-sense methods. We had no new method, no new .an esthetics, no new antiseptics. We used chloroform on the battlefield and ether back in the hospitals. ; V "But every trench Was supplied with pure water, mostly artesian. We used some river water,' but It was all fil tered, i ii:x -J-' ,:;.---"N ,"No raw vegetables or fruit were al io wea.' : - "Everything had io'be -cooked.'. Ev ery pint ot milk was boiled before It .iv? :' TURKISH DESERT jgag7 got to the soldiers. It was simply the common-sense method of prevention. "The pathetic cases were the 'Invol untary cowards.' That's a new men tal affliction peculiar to thia war of high explosives. When men are brought back from the firing line suf fering with concussion due to high ex plosives they are sent back home as aoon as possible. Their fighting days are over. "1 think 1 saw the real spirit of the fighting men. It Is still strange to me In a way. The word panic Is un known, even among the wounded and the dying. There Is not the slightest auggestion of fear anywhere." TRAVELS FAR FOR SKATING Lure of Winter Sports Too Much for Eleven-Year-Old American Boy In Brazil. New York.

It takes a lot of hustling to get enough money together to make a trip down to Brazil, but Moyses thinks nothing of such a mere trifle as the handicap of age when he makes up his mind he Is going to get what he wants. A number of years ago his mother, who formerly lived In Brook lyn, married a second time and with her husband went to some "tank" town down in Brazil. The name of the place, which became known only through the efforts of Moysos, is Bello Horizonte. When Moyses de cided that he ought to give his moth er a chance to see hnv her son bad grown Into young manhood, he start ed off on his long voyage from the home of the relatives with whom his mother placed him in Brooklyn, never for a moment thinking that in Bello Horizonte even the very oldest of the oldest residents does not know what a chunk of ice looks like. With eleven years' experience in a world of hard knocks he ventured out Into the great unknown in search of Hello Horizonte, and arrived there to the great delight and astonishment of his mother.. For a while Brazil ap pealed t" him, but when the pictures of the "kids" "bellywhopplng" and ice skating refused to be erased from his brain, Moyses decided to shake the dust of Bello Horizonte off his heels and started tor his home burg, arriving late In December. The au thorities at Ellis Island were so aston ished at seeing the youngster that at first they did not know what to do with him. It waa only after they had an official conferedce with Washing ton that they got over It. In the mean while they gave him the best on the island until it was decided that being a native-born American citizen, he la entitled to all the dignity and consid eration due such a person.

Watch Every Train and Vessel With out Molestation Tssks Performed With Cynical Audacity That Is Really Provoking. London. From Saloniki an English press correspondent communicates, under date of November 25, the follow ing account of the spy system estab llshed there by Germany and her al lies: "Since it became the base ot the Anglo-French operations In the Bal kans, Saloniki has attained an Impor tance unprecedented In all Its his tory. It has become the gathering place of a heterogeneous assemblage of soldiers representing nearly every race under the sun, and besides It hat been Infested with such an army ol spies that one fairly stumbles ovei them. Saloniki seems to have become a veritable paradlae to theBe contempt Ible Individuals, who strut about here at their leisure, without .being Inter fered with in the least. They perform their tasks with a cynical audacity which is really provoking. "Here one will find the elite of the German, Austrian and Bulgarian world of espionage. As Boon as a traveler alights from a train at Saloniki some sly-looking person Is sure to be on hand, sizing up not only the new arrt val himself but also his baggage, etc. If possible, the watchful person will try to get a peep at the newcomer's passport, too, when this Is presented for inspection. The trail Is followed to the hotol, where subsequently the clerk will be pumped for all the In formation he may be able to supply. Then the waiters are enlisted in the service of the spy, and If they cannot Dick un enough satisfactory news through bits of casual conversation ! with their patron some outsider will be hired to occupy the nearest tabl In the dining room, in order to try to draw out the stranger by the approved 'ball fellow well met' method. "If the goings and comings of ordi nary private persons are observed bo closely, one may rest assured that not a single transport arrives, or a soldfer disembarks, without that fart being reported Immediately to Sofia, Con stantinople or Berlin. Nor can the Greek government be blamed for not intervening in the nefarious business. Greece maintains Its neutrality, and on the whoie this neutrality is benev olent to the allies. On the other hand, the English-French military authori ties have their hands tied In this mat ter and are quite impotent to take any efficacious measures for protection against the spies. The problem, however, Is one which calls for a prompt solution." BLINDNESS NO AFFLICTION "A Handicap Which Can Be Over come,'' 8ays British Soldier Whs Lort Sight in Battle. London. Visitors to the Blinded Soldiers and Sailors hotel, St Dun Stan's, Regents Park, see squads of sturdy men In spotless white ducks and vests leading the new life. They may be giving an exhibition of physical drill before an amazed audience of their relations and friends Interested in the work of the hotel. Blinded In battle, these late soldiers many of iliem youths of nineteen and twenty have been taught to be the cheeriest men in the kingdom In stead of being cast adrift In helpless ness and misery, a burden to them selves and their kindred.
