(Correspondence of The As- 01 seriated Press)?The American doc- sl tors who are now at work in various u parts of the British front find that '' army surgery has advanced just as !l rapidly since the beginning of the & war as any other branch Nof war's ac- s' tivitios. In the early days of the war, wounds were of an average gravity far beyond that expected from the [experience of previous wars, while '' tetanus, gas-gangrene and severe sup- " puration, were general and hundreds died of comparatively trivial injuries for lack of early and adequate treat- 111 ment. l' This situation has now been al- ('! tered almost beyond recognition. Se- ai rum treatment has almost done away with tetanus, while earlier and more energetic surgical treatment has largely defeated gangrene. More and c': more of the major surgical work is being carried out in the casualty ' 1 clearing stations, and some of the 1UIIIUUD Ui Uif milt'Ill'UIl SUIgeons have spent most of their time a> since their arrival, in advanced hos- ai pitals within sound of the German 'a guns. 01 The key to the whole improvement se in surgical results has heen the push- to ing of the surgeon nearer and nearer to the fighting lines. The enemy has endeavored to counter this by per- to sistent bombing of the advanced hospitals, but the saving of life is more than worth the loss of life, and suitable defensive measures are being taken. The doctor, as distinguished from ''c the surgeon, has also accomplished wonders in this war. The small mor- se tality from disease in the British and French armies is due to his constant vigilance. His two great weapons have been sanitation and prophylactic inoculation. In a scene of unparralleled confusion and in an area of quite primitive sanitation, to* his exertions have resulted in an as- ha tonishing degree of sanitary efficien- itj fV RpfllUP i? ,loc)w.vo/l /InPnlv ? - " ..V.^.OJVU "I 'ICC[>i.Y I C buried; battlefields in many eases are m< cleaned up within a few days; pure m< water supplies are provided.

Washington, Nov. 7.?President Wilson issued tonight his 1017 hankskiving proclamation, calling pon the nation, even in the midst of le sorrow and great peril of a world haken by war. to thank God for lessings that are better than mere eace of mind and prosperity of en;rprise. The proclamation, fixing Thursday, iov. 20, as Thanksgiving day, fol>ws Thanksgiving. 1917?By the Presicnt o fthe United States?A Proclalation: It has long been the honored cus3m of our people to turn in the fruitul autumn of the year in praise and hanksgiving to Almighty God for lis many blessings and mercies to us s a nation. That custom we can fol>w even now in the midst of the ragedy of a world shaken by war and nnieasurable disaster, in the midst f sorrow and great peril, because ven amidst the darkness that has :athered about us we can see the ;reat blessings God has bestowed pon us, blessings that are better ban mere peace of mind and proserity of enterprise. We Serve Mankind. We have been given the opportuity to serve mankind as we once erved ourselves in the great day of ur Declaration of Independence by aking up arms against a tyranny hat threatened to master and debase len everywhere, and pointing with tlier free peoples in demanding for 11 the nations of the world that we hen demanded and obtained for ourelves. In this day of the revelation f our duty not only to defend our wn rights as a nation, but to defend lso the rights of free men throughut the world, there has been vouchafed us in full and inspiring measure he resolution and spirit of united ction. We have been brought to one lind and purpose. A new vigor of ommon counsel and common action as been revealed in us. We should specially thank God that in such cirumstnrces, in the midst of the greatst ente: prise the spirits of men have ritered upon, we have, if we but oberve a reasonable and practicable L'onoriv, abundance with which to ipply the needs of those associated ith us as well as our own. A new ght shines above us. The great dues of a new day awaken a new and reater national spirit in us. We lall never again be divided or won?r what stuff we are made of. "Pray for Liberty and Peace." And while we render thanks for lose things let us pray Almighty God nit in all humblensss of spirit we lay look always to Him for guidu-e; that we may be kept constantthe spirit and purpose of service; lat by His grace our minds may be rected and our hands strengthened; id that in His good time liberty and curity and peace and the eomradelip of a common justice may be >uchsafed all the nations of the irtli. Wherefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, resident of the United States of merica ,do liereby designate Thursiy, the 21Hh day of November next, a day of thanksgiving and prayer, id invite the people throughout the nd to cease upon that day from their dinary occupations and in their veral homes and places of worship render thanks to Clod, the great tiler of nations. In witness whereof I have hereunset my hand and caused the seal of o United States to be affixed. Done in the District of Columbia is 7th day of November, in the ar of Our Ixml one thousand nine indred and seventeen and of the inpendence of the United States of rnerica the one hundred and fortycond.
