Part*.—"Doctor" Van I ant a doctor really—that la. hi has never been Inal dr a medical school. He la not a missioned officer, either. Two days

after war was declared !n

enlisted In ooe of the cities of the middle West and came over as a private. Be Ic a sergeant now. His experiences —driving an ambulance first, and after that in the front line and then In various camps in France until he to a base hospital as a patient—would fill several mariea. If. he, keeps

please."

Next morning on his rounds the captain stopped beside the bed of the first of the two men who had been shell
