"Funds are urgently needed to help the work of providing and distributing a pure water supply in the following ways: "1. By small portable sterilising plants for every company to produce and distribute from twenty to a hundred gallons of pure cold water per hour. By sterilisers easy of adjustment for all field hospitals, convalescent homes, medical depots, and so forth.
No subject has been left so free from what is supposed to be the sterilising influence of examinations as divinity. In many schools there have been one or two inspiring teachers of this subject who justify this system, but on the whole the result does not confirm the opinion that all would be well if we could have complete freedom from examinations.
By pocket filters for all who may have to work out of reach of the sterilising plants, and so forth. By two hundred field kitchens on the battlefield to serve out soup, coffee or other drinks to the men fighting in the trenches or on the march." Everywhere, at the front, I found the gravest apprehension as to water supply in case the confronting armies remained in approximately the same position.
The rooms are scrupulously clean; and the hospital sterilising chamber serves to disinfect the clothes, which, after being washed and labelled, are stored in a wardrobe and handed back to the owners when they leave the hospital. The prisoners have no trouble over them. A large supply of things for the patients is kept in the laundry. Clothing.
And the humour of the situation, the hopeless dilemma in which she thus places herself if it be right to apply the feminine gender! never occurs to one whose sense of humour has long been atrophied, perhaps at Girton, or by a course of sterilising Extension lectures.
The point is, which will get there first, disease and sickness caused by drinking water unspeakably contaminated, or sterilising plants to avoid such a disaster." Another letter from a different writer, also in Belgium at the front, says: "A friend of mine has just been invalided home with enteritis. He had been drinking from a well with a dead Frenchman in it!"
By large sterilising plants, capable of producing from 150 gallons upward per hour, to provide a pure water supply for all the devastated towns through which the army must pass. By the sterilisation of contaminated pools and all surface water, under the direction of leading scientific experts who have generously offered their services.
For this purpose, temporary partitions divided portions of the buildings, and an unusually large supply of water was laid on. Special entrances for ambulances were already in existence, baths had already been fitted in the wounded reception rooms, and in many cases sterilising sheds were already installed.
Success in war depends ultimately on the brain-power of the chief leaders and organisers; and that source of strength has long ago been dried up in Turkey by adhesion to a sterilising creed and cramping traditions.
As for Germany, she was then entering on new colonial undertakings; and she doubtless saw in the joint intervention of 1895 a means of sterilising the Franco-Russian alliance, so far as she herself was concerned, and possibly of gaining Russia's assent to the future German expansion in the Far East.
