Dr. Herbert V. Mellinger, who is training as first lieutenant at Fort Riley, Kan., writes to The Lake Shore News of the life in the medical of- ficers' camp, where many prominent doctors have been called to assist the United States in their war for democracy. "The army reservation here covers 42 square miles," Dr. Mellinger writes. "The land is high and rolling and there are many deep ravines where we will have class work. "IT do not know how many doctors are here, probably 700, and more are coming each day. In the company to which I am assigned, there are 104 men. Very few of them are un- der 30 years old and the average age is 39 years. "One man in my company, 34 years old, is a well-known Chicago sur- geon. I served him as interne 11 years ago. Now he is on a par with me and he acts it. There is no snob- bery here. We are all first lieuten- ants or captains, but while in train- ing we are considered equal. The gold and black hat cord, however, brings us respect wherever we go. "We are here to learn to be sol- diers. Our living conditions are con- siderably like those at the officers' training camp at Fort Sheridan.
