Dogs On the Battlefield. Since dogs have to be such able assistants to the Paris policy corps why shouldn't be trained to re-enforce the hospital and ambu- lance service of the French army? The advantages of this innovation have been set f at some le Dr. Bichelonne Capt. Tolet, the French army, in a volume which has just been published. It is entitled the "Dog as an Aid to the Sanitary Corps." That dogs should be taught to seek out the wounded on the battlefield is no new idea. The experiment was | tried with success at the time of the Boer war, and at the battle of Cha- Ho in the conflict iri the Far East three dogs sent out by the German Alliance discovered twenty-three sol- diers who had been given up for lost. In 1890, by the order of the German War Minister, two dogs were added to the sanitary of one of the crack regiments. ince then clubs for the ining of dogs in war time have been ormed in en, Colone,; Cobourg, Aix-lachapelle and Neuwied. ; Similar societies have been organized: in Holland, Sweden and Italy.. In fact all of the European countries bave turned their atlention to the subject at one time or other except France. Dr. Bichelonne and Capt. Tolet urge the military authorities to repair this There are many good breeds of dogs in France which would take easily to. the military training. It is an undisputed fact, these au- thors say, that after an engagement there are many wounded dying who are overlooked by the nurses and litter-carriers. A in point is quoted. ' At the battle /of Rezon- ville-Gravelotte_in 1870, two injured soldiers lay for three s In a ra ) ground had been gone over many times by the ambul service and yet they had not been found. In instances like this the usefulness of dogs as scouts is un- questioned. It is a wonder that European armies have not awakened long before this | last decade to the importance of dogs | as practical helpers inh war time, the | author thinks. On the battlefield the role of these canine assistants would be very much the same as that of the St. Bernard dogs--and they have | been rescuing snowbound travelers | for several centuries. | Blind Men Get Lost In Fog.
