By ARTHUR R: LEWIS,
State Health Commissioner.
Most of you probably have read of
the plan recently inaugurated by the
state health department to give medi-
cal and surgical treatment to inmates
of state institutions who can be restor-
ed to useful, normal citizenship by
simple treatments or operations.
I think that this is one of the big-
gest projects, as state health commis-
sioner, that I can engage in. If, dur-
ing my term of office, I can rebuild
tho minds and bodies of a score of men
and women in prisons or insane hospi-
tlas, I will believe that I have been of
use to the people of the state.
They did it in the army. Men who
were 'absolutely unfit for military ser-
vice were sent into development bat-
talions and made normal. Some of
them had mental diseases, where
lifting of the pressure on the brain
made a marvelous change.
I want to ask the cooperation of the
people and medical profession of. the
state in this work. If you know of
anyone in an institution that you are
sure can be benefitted let me know
so that I can make an investigation
and give assistance if it is possible.
A. B. r. SOLDIERS TO BB
GIVEN MEMORIAL BY FRENCH
Soldiers of tho American Army are
credited by the French Government
with being largely instrumental m win-
ning the victory which came to the
arms of right aud justice on November
11 1918. when the Armistice Germany
be'ifged, was granted. This appeurs in
a souveuir pamphlet dedicated to the
American soldiers who fought overseas
and which will soon be presented
through Recruiting Officers through
out the United States, to every Amer-
ican soldier who saw service with the
American Expeditionary Forces and
who did not receive ouo before leaviug
j.'|"|^ Q
Tho memorial voice* the feeling of
France to America and America noble
sons, who were over tbere^not omitting
those who gave th-^r ALL for Liberty.
In an eloquent introduction, appears
this 'high tribute to American Soldiers:
< < At tho most critical moment of tho
struggle which has lasted for three
years against German imperialism, you
came as strong youths into a country
where the young had perished. To the
weeping, you brought a smile, to those
who ‘had been despoiled your generosity
restored hope, to the fearless children
you offered joy. The summing up of
tlieso recollect'nns must remain an in-
spiration to you and to those who fol-
low you, in all future efforts.
The memorial in fact, is a history in
tabloid form of America’s participa-
tion in the War, beginning with Ca-
tigny where the gallant 1st Division
made history, to the attack on the
heights of Sedan, just before tho Ar-
mistice was granted.
Tho soldiers of the American Expe-
ditionary Forces who wooed and won
brides among the French people will
find most interesting that portion of
tho memorial with tho home life of
France.
A supply of these memorials lias been
shipped to Colonel John G. Tyndall,
Recruiting officer at Oklahoma City,
Okla., through the Recruiting Publicity
Bureau of the Army in New York,
which is acting as distributing agent
for the French Government. On re-
ceipt they wil be issued by the_ Recruit-
ing Officers to every man entitled to
receive it. Issues will be made through
local posts of the American Legion,
Branch Recruiting Officers and all
Postmasters. __
