GBR it 1lN PRISON C1141@S.
As Ilescribed by the United Stetes
Ambassador Gerard.
The Baassian soldiers arriving at
g
'Wittenberg were not properly disin-
fected and, in consequence, typhus fe-
ver broke out in camp. Several Brit-
ish medical officers- were there with
their prisoners, says U, S. Ambassa-
dor Gerard, in "My Four ears in
Germany."
The medical officers protested: with:
the camp commander against the
herding together of the; French and
British prisoners with the Russians.
But the eamp commander said, "You
Tw=ill have to know your Allies," and
kept all of his prisoners together, and
thus as surely condemned to- death a
number of French, and British pris-
oners of war as though he had stood
them against the wall and ordered
them shot by a firing squad. Condi-
tions in the camp during the period
of this epidemic were frightful.
The Germans employed a large
number of police dogs in this, camp,
"qr.'s , Many complaints were made to' me
by prisoners concerning these dogs,
stating that men_head been bitten by
them. It seemed undoubtedly true
that the prisoners there had'been
knocked about and beaten in a terrible
manner by their guards, and one
guard went so'far as to strike one' of
the British medical officers.
The day after visiting the camp at
Gottingen, I visited the officers' camp
at -Hanover Munden. The Russiarof-
ficers handed me some arrows tipped
with nails which had been shot at them
by the'kindhearted' little town boys,
and the British pointed out to me the
filthy conditions of the camp.
To have vegetables in cans on the

FORELOCK MUST COMB OFF.
Tuft. of Hair, the Pride and Joy of
Tommy :Atkins, is Banned.'
"Tommy" is to be robbed of his
"love lock." No more will he swag-
ger up the street with his well oiled
"quiff," his cap at an angle to display
the plastered forelock. With his cap
at a dead level, well pulled down to
hide his lost looks, he will try to im-
press folks with the idea that hats
and not hair form the natural head
covering.
The new instruction, which is in the
interest of health and cleanliness,
reads as follows: "Men's hair will be
cut evenly all over the head and a
fringe is not to be left in front,"
This means good -by to the outcrop
of hair that was once the soldier's
pride and glory. Though the back of
his head was reaped as close as the
hair on a tooth brush, the dandy pri-
vate always kept a luxuriant tuft
just over his forehead. This capil-
lary attraction he either brushed
carefully upward or plastered across
his brow.
But 7101,1' the quiff is to go. It of-
fends the aesthetic eye of the officer
commanding, likewise . the sanitary
seruples of the medical officer, and in
future the regimental`" barber of the
blanlcsliires must put the horse clip-
pers all over back and front until his
victim's head looks like a field just
after harvest time,
The real reason for the new orclee
is, not to copy the German custom of
a clase cropped poll, but the outcome
of the observation of the medical of-
ficers who have been dealing with the
subject of insect disease carriers at
the cleansing stations both behind
the front lines and at the bases.
