PAYS HIS HOSPITAL BILLS, TO EDUCATE HIM, KEEPS FAMILY Northwestern Iowa Man Comes to University Hospital and Finds Benefactor PROMISES HIM A POSITION Uncle Sam Takes a Hand in Case of Man Disabled in Service of Country The world looks considerably different to Ex-Private Wilton of Osceola county today from what it did last week. Some one has stepped in, reimbursed him for the three cents per mile to Iowa City, announced intentions to provide for his wife and children while he is having medical treatment, is going to pay his hospital bill, give him a better education in his trade as telephone electrician, and has promised him a good job when he is better off physically and mentally. When he came down to the University hospital the other day under his physician's orders, Wilton felt disheartened. And when the University doctors gave a similar diagnosis to his own physician and suggested that an operation would improve his health, his spirits did not revive greatly. Shell Shock Case It was then that the university doctors discovered that Wilton had been in the army and that his physical disability was probably caused or intensified by army life, and they told him that under the war risk insurance bureau he was entitled to free medical treatment. They also informed him tha [sic] this family would be cared for, that he would be given further education in his trade, and a job would be provided him when he was fully recovered. His benefactor is Uncle Sam. This is only one of the many cases which have reached the notice of the University doctors in the past few weeks. A man, suffering from shell shock and with his case pending before the war risk insurance bureau, decided to come to the University hospital at his own expense. When he arrived officials here got in telegraphic communications with Washington and in twenty-four hours received directions to proceed with the case at government expense. Iowa and Michigan Lead Any discharged soldier, sailor, or marine who received an injury while in service or who was physically weakened by service is entitled to free treatment under the war risk insurance bureau. This also applies to civilian employees of the government during the war. Such treatment is provided at the patient's own volition; it is not forced upon him. About 250 men have been treated at the University hospital during the last few weeks at government expense. After July 7 the hospital is expecting to receive ten men a day. Not all of these men are retained at the hospital after examination. Many of them return home and come back at intervals for treatment. The universities of Iowa and Michigan are the only two state educational institutions which are treating these men. A provision added to the war risk insurance bill at the suggestion of Harry E. Hull, Iowa congressman from the second district, enables state universities to perform this service. TEACHERS SHOULD HAVE COOPERATION (continued from page 1) than that of Siberia; was brought out, but the teachers do not have enough voice in the administration to keep them as interested as they should be in the problems of the school. This very freedom from the administrative side of school life, however, gives them increased time and energy to put upon their teaching. A solution of the unrest and discontent with the present system is greater cooperation with the teachers on the part of superintendent, allowing them a voice in the management of the school. Dean Russell also spoke of the distrust which the people of Siberia feel in any kind of government, and their inability to understand the American system of education. LAMBDA THETA MEETING There will be a called meeting of Lambda Theta June 30 at 4:30 in room 116 liberal arts. All members are urged to come. ABOUT THE CAMPUS RANNEY LIBRARY The Ranney Memorial library on the third floor of the liberal arts building, containing a collection of nearly 3,500 exquisitely bound standard volumes valued at $45,000, will be open during the summer session from 2 to 4 o'clock each afternoon. The feature of this library lies in the fine bindings of a excellent collection of standard works. The average value per book is $10.30. The Napoleon set, one of the most valuable in the collection, was put out by Ernest Hertzberg the well known book-binder and was exhibited by him at the St. Louis exposition where it was awarded the gold medal. Information on Napoleon and his life was a hobby with Mr. Hertzberg, and the pictures, engravings, and facsimiles, represent the lifetime collection of the binder on this subject. The States edition of a complete set called "The History of the United States" is also to be found in this library. These volumes take their value from the fact that only one set of the edition is issued to each state and a special title page is made for each edition. The edition for the state of Iowa is in the Ranney Library. Besides books, a varied and diversified collection, known as the Oscar R. Coast collection containing everything from mummy cloth to tear bottles, a bronze mirror, silver coins, and jars of irredescent glass, is on exhibit in the same room. The Ranney library was founded by Mrs. Ranney as a memorial to her husband who at one time was head of the school of medicine of the University. Books are added to the collection each year through a fund provided for that purpose. Margery Heberling will leave Saturday night for the national convention of Delta Delta Delta to be held at the Statler hotel at Detroit. Esther Feister a graduate of 1917 will leave today for a summer's tour through the West. Five aviators from Cornell University made a flight from New york to Ithica. The airmen were forced to land at Poughkeepsie on account of a fog but arrived safely at Ithica the following afternoon. Two of the men were aces and all have seen service overseas. Six hundred and fifty-one students enrolled at the University of Missouri for the summer session on the first day of registration. Let The Iowan be your letter.
