Saturday, May 17, 1919 THE DAILY IOWAN, STATE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA PAGE THREE [advertisement] ENGLERT THEATRE The Annual Hep-Zet Play "A Scrap of Paper" Seat Rservations Monday and Tuesday May 21 MAJOR LOVE PRAISES RED CROSS NURSES Iowa City Officer From Camp Dodge Speaks at Commercial Club Banquet Major Frank L. Love, M. C. is in the city on a ten day leave from the base hospital at Camp Dodge. At the Commercial club banquet given Monday in his honor, Major Love spoke very highly of the work that the Red Cross nurses have done in France. Major Love and his hospital unit, composed of sixtysix men from the University and from Iowa City and vicinity, left here for Fort Riley, Kansas, the latter part of August. They were to comprise the field hospital No. 54 at Camp Funston and were to accompany the 10th division to France. This division had been trained and was as far east as Detroit when the armistice was signed. Now a part of the original company has been discharged and a number of the men are at Ft. Snelling. Others are at Ft. Sheridan and some are at Newport News. One or two are at the general hospital at Ft. Des Moines. Major Love was transferred to Camp Dodge March 20 and is doing his work there. "The Red Cross has done a wonderful and commendable work," he stated in an interview. The Red Cross nurses who enlisted were transferred into the Army Nurses Corps just as the physicians who enlisted were transferred into the medical corps. The Red Cross nurses and doctors have acted as an auxiliary to the regular medical corps and, in addition to this, they have attended to the wants of the poor and helpless children. In conclusion, Major Love said, "Every boy who comes back is universal in the praise of the Red Cross." MARK BAGGAGE CORRECTLY Express Company Finds Students Careless With Shipments The American Railway Express company has recently sent an appeal to students through Stanley W. Todd director of the educational service bureau, to exercise greater care in shipping their baggage. Mr. Todd states that the greatest cause of loss of baggage is lack of sufficient address or failure to address properly and asks that students and others, follow these simple suggestions to avoid loss and to secure better service: Cancel used addresses; use both a label and a strong tag; address always in ink, giving these details--name of shipper and return, name of consignee, local address, street and number, destination, value and date of shipment; place your name on the inside of package.
