I
KLOXDIKER AT HEAD
OF A GREAT WORK
(Coatinued from Pa^e 1.)
womcu and children" is what Hen
ry Ford will make out of his new
hospital, corner of Hamilton and
Urand boulevard.
Mr. Ford explained this when an
nouncing for the first time his
selection of men to run the hospi
tal.
The hospital will be opened next
week or at least in a 'few days
I'atients will be received immedi
ately afterward. '
It is Mr. Ford's expectation that
the entire hospital, a mammoth in
stitution will be completed in a
vear's time. '
"The hospital will be a single
unit establishment,"' said Mr. Ford.
"The buildings will bo grouped about
each other. The first one is com
pleted and will be opened in a very
vory few days from now. The oth
er buildings will be completed as
rapidly as possible and lu a year's
time the entire institution will • be
running.
"It is my one desire to imake
this hospital a producer—one that
will produce cured men, women and
children in the least time needed. It
will take in the ill and afflicted and
turn them out whole and sound as
soon as science is able to care for
their eases. That is my desire for
th$ hospital."
"Will any plans be followed for
research work and investigation
along uew lines into the causes of
disease?" Mr. Ford was asked.'
"My idea," he replied, "is to try
out the result of the research
work that already has been done.
Science has discovered numerous
things that it is thought will bene
fit humanity greatly and I believe
that out first aim in curing the
sick should be to make use of the
things already found by putting
them into practical operation. That
would seem to be the quickest way
of making the hospital a producer
of cured people.
"Hospitals now are for the poor
or for the rich. Do you know, there
seems to be few great hospitals for
the middle class, tho people of
moderate means? This hospital,
therefore, will be for the people
who can't afford to be sick. The
prices will be moderate. Every
pa':en* will have a private room.
There will be no ward."
When the first part of the hospi
tal is opened to patients soon, it
will be in charge of Dr. "J. N. E.
Brown, as superintendent; Dr.
Angrs McLeod, as chief of the Sur
gical staff; Dr. Frank J. Slatien, as
chief of the medical staff, and Dr.
James E. Mead, as Mr. Ford's per
sonal representative on the ad
visory. ' Major Mead is chief
physician at 'the Ford Motor com
pany's factory.
These appointments were ' an
nounced to the Journal Friday
morning.
Dr. Brown was superintendent of
the Toronto general hospital for
six years, and for three yearswas
secretary of the American Hospital
association. He has made numer
ous contributions 'to medical jour
nals, toth In America and Canada.
Appointments have not yet been
made on the hospital Staff," Bald
Dr. Brown. "Applications are
coming in but 110 selections kayo
yet been made."
COLONEL RICHARDSON
LOSES VALUABLE TAPERS
Seward Gateway: By tbe fire at
Valdez Colonel W. P. Richardson,
who is now in Seward, has suffered
losses that can hardly be estimated
Amongst the papers of his that
wen} stored in the road commis
sion office were his commissions in
the army all the way from the rank
ol lieutenant upward. In a cable
received by him today, he is
informed that all the -records of
the 'road commission for ten years
have been destroyed. Indeed, • not
a thing seems to have been saved
but a typewriter. 1
SEWARD MAIL SUPPOSED
LOST WENT TO JAPAN
| Seward Gateway: The supposed
I robbery of registered mail from Se
ward and other Alaska towns, was
no robbery at all and the belief
that a robbery had occurred was
due to the fact thaat the mail got
mixed up with the mail for Japan at
Seattle and was 'Shipped across the
the Pacific. This information was
brought to Seward today 'by Chief
Clerk A. Eamos of the railway mail
service. Several registered packages
sent by people from Seward were
in the missing mail and some were
valuable.
One of the packages was sent by
George Mirloch and contained five
or six hundred dollars worth. This
missing mail will bo sent back
from Japan immediately.
"THE ELECTROGRAPH"
HAS PATENT TROUBLE
Juneau Empire: Stockholders in
the Kingsbury Electrograph, the
invention of E. J. Kingsbury, of Ju
neau, have learned that the com
pany is having trouble with its pa
tent, infringements having been
diccoverd by George Lovegrove, pro
motor of the company, who is In
San Francisco. Full details were
not available. About $20,000 of
the stock was subscribed here.
Shortly after Kingsbury and Love
grove reached San Francisco they
bought a large sign in Market St.,
but the electrograph has not yet
been given a complete trial there
owing to the litigation which de
veloped.
SOLDIERS' BURDENS.
Loads They Havo to Carry on tha
March and In Action.
While the rifle of the Infantrymen
of the world's armies has steadily
lessened In weight during the last fifty
years, and while constant attempts
have been made In other ways to
lighten the soldier's burden on march.
It Is nevertheless a fact that the uni
formed fighter of today carries very
little if any lees than he did a genera
tion or two ago. Ills gun and bayo
net and somo other details of equip
ment that had an exact counterpart
In the old armies may be lighter, but
modern military necessities have add
ed to his carrying requirements.
He must now face this marching
load: Magazine rifle, bayonet, scab
bard, rifle cartridge belt and fasten
ers, rifle cartridge belt suspenders, first
aid packet, canteen, canteen strap, set
of blankets, roll straps, haversack,
meat can (used as a frying pan), cup,
knife, fork, spoon, one shelter tent
(half), five shelter tent pins, one pon
cho (rubber blanket), one pair shoes,
one housewife (needle and thread), one
overcoat, one Intrenching tool
These marching loads havo varied
from 40 to 100 pounds in the past
and weigh about the same now.
Of course, In going Into action much
of this load is discarded, some of it
never to be possessed by the owner
again, even though he escapes the bat
tle peril. In the old days knapsacks
were always cast off by seasoned
troops, who grew calloused as to the
hoarding up of little trinkets and
mementos that bo appeal to the
amateur soldier.
After a battle these discarded knap
sacks might be recovered, but it was
not likely. At any rate, while another
knapsack might be issued, it would not
be the one possessed by the soldier be
fore the battle.
Whenever a new levy of troops was
mustered in and arrived In a camp
where veterans were stationed the
newcomers were greeted with mock
praise for their spick and span sol
dierly appearance, with special em
phasis on "IIow nice those knapsacks
lookl" This time honored receptacle
of everything a soldier desired or hop
ed to keep ever near him is no longer
reckoned in the latter day, universal
fighting equipment While troops on
going Into battle discard everything
not absolutely necessary to them for
the fight and are thus lightened up
some, they have to take on some
weight in the place of that relinquished
in the shape of an extra number of
cartridges.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
