In the southern division, for example, there are six nurses, their ras j t u r health impaired by tuberculosis contracted or developed during their service. All are now receiving the reg- j ular compensation, tn addition to hos- KOn pltal treatment. Any chapter of the Red Cross will ' tell you about it; and where and how vi" to get medical treatment. If you need inK it; and the proper money compensa- in ' tion; and the vocational education, if ( you want it.

Two soldiers discharged on account of dis- ,jv< ability were sent to Columbia for phy- j sical examinations, one being sent for tuberculosis, and the other for epi- 5 lepsy. One returned soldier has been ing placed in a government school to take at c the vocational training which the olir government is offering free to all sol-| diers discharged for disability.
