The base hospital is the place where Brooklynites in camp will be cared for should illness or accident overtake them. Its personnel more than compares favorably with that of any hospital in the country. Its equipment leaves nothing to be desired. It is modern in every respect and now has accommodations for 2,000 patients and an emergency capacity of 2,500.

During the latter part of June, and during Juiy and August, the hospital requirements of the camp, which was then under construction and populated exclusively by civilians, were met in one building maintained by the contractors. On September 1, 1917, the Base Hospital was organized. Its present head. Lieutenant Colonel Jay D. Whitham, was placed in charge.

His rank at that time was captain. It can be seen that Colonel Whitham grew with his institution, for the hospital Brooklyh-L. I. Men Commissioned In Aviation Section, Signal Corps S. Cook, J7S Lewis avenue, Brooklyn, and Captain John J.

June 29 Of the 1,000 college students whose training in military science and tactics termi-nates at this camp on Wednesday, July J. approximately 2,400 will be recommended as worthy of special com mendation for their progress la mills tary instruction, their bearing aad be havior, and are considered as goad material for reserve officers after receiving further training; but there will probably be not more than 800 who will be commissioned second lieutenant by January, and about 60 within the next six months after January l. The remaining 1,500 will bay from one to two years to wait unless th Army age is put to the minimum of eighteen years, in which event there would be ready for the National Army nearly 2,400 capable second lieutenants at the end of another three months' course of instruction. In making his recommendations to the commanding general of the Department of the East, Colonel E. Dentler, camp commandant, gave the names of about 200 students who are either now of age or will be by January and they will be recommended to a further course of instruction ot three months, beginning September 6 in Virginia, at the end of which to be commissioned.

The second batch oi recommendations, somewhere around 600, will be recommended to the same training at the same camp, but be-cause of their ages will have to wait to be commissioned as they become) of age. There is general regret among both officers and students that the War Department has not seen fit to continue the present camp for the remainder of the summer here, more than 80 per cent, of the students having Indicated that they would continue on In such a course. The recommendations made by Colonel Dentler will be announced on Thursday morning. The camp terminates at 3:30 Wednesday afternoon, when the last train, according to schedule, will have pulled out from the camp siding. This morning the 3,000 students by wmpanies, there being twenty, companies to the training regiment, passed through one of the hospital buildings, where several surgeons and their assistants gave the third and last treatment of typhoid prophylaxis, the treatment consuming just exactly nine and one-half minutes per company of 150 men.

today is essentially a nit nam institution. Ho has ever beenlhe executive on the ground who has built up around him. On the day it was organized Colonel Whitham had placed at his disposal four buildings. One was devoted to administration, receiving office and mess for the officers. The other three were devoted respectively to medicine, surgery and genito-urinary diseases.

These buildings were the ordinary two-story barracks buildings, and are now in the dead center of the camp, as it is today. Three weeks prior to the removal to the present hospital group the number of patients became so large that additional buildings were required. During the early days the hospital maintained a clinic and a dispensary and treated practically all the cases in the camp. Colonel Wliltlmm First in Charge. At the very outset Colonel Wrhitam directed the medical department, but a short time later Captain Wolfe, the present X-Ray expert, wa assigned to act as detachment commander.

Now there are separate administrative officers, but in the early days the receiving registrars, record and detachment officers were all run in the same place with Captain Ebcl, then a lieutenant as registrar, and Receiving Officer Major Fox, then a captain, as adjutant, and Seregant William Burroughs as non-commissioned officer in charge.

RENDICHS PATRIOTIC and erect fences around their barracks, but the Camp Quartermaster grass is considerably higher than the rest.N So is their flag pole taller than any other in camp save that on Headquarters Hill. The one thing that impresses visitors more than anything else on their arrival in camp for the first time is the almost complete absence of paint.

Bare barracks buildings glare under the fierce sun. Even headquarters on the hill lacks a coat of paint But not so with the group of four buildings on Second avenue near Upton Boulevard. The stain khaki oil was obtained somewhere and willing workers applied it thick and fast. All four buildings were stained within the day. Then they went to work with white paint and did a neat job of all the window sashes.

The screens received a protecting coat of paint. The men searched around for something else to cover and decided the fire escape would look much better if painted to imitate steel ladders. More paint was procured and now the ladders look like steel. The entire job occupied less than a day and doubtless sets a record for speed in camp. The men decided among themselves that theirs would be the first buildings to "wear a coat of paint in camp and they rushed the job through, fearful that some other, outfit would get ahead of them.

Now the structures look all the world like wealthy relatives visiting their poor kin in the slums. They do present a violent contrast. Major General Hugn L. ecoti. Aa-dresses were made by Mrs.

Annapolis, Juno 29 Unless there is the came need for temporary officers for the Navy next summer as exists now, the Naval Academy Is now at the high-water mark in the instruction of reserve officers. A new class the Fifth Reserve Officers' Class is to be formed about October 1, but it will contain not more than between 300 and 400 members, for the very good reason that it will be impossible to accommodate a large number at the Naval Academy.

The exact number cannot be stated because the size of the new fourth class of midshipmen is still undetermined. The exact number in the present class of Reserve Officers the fourth is 917. Of these, 650 are being instructed as deck or line officers, 168 as engineer officers, and 199 for the pay corps. Temporary commissions in the regular Navy will be given to all of those who completed the course successfully. There will be about 2,100 midshipmen when the academic year open3 on October 1, assuming a memberstiip of 950 in the new fourth class, which is a minimum.
