MORE RECRUITS FOR THE ARMY MEDICAL CORPS

Draft Now in Course of Formation-- Many More Recruits Are Needed


The following recruits for the Army Medical Corps have been secured this week:
A. J. St. Pierre, Beaver Crossing, Alta.
Frank Sand, Beaver Crossing, Alta.
M. H. Foster, University of Alberta.
W. A. Kirkpatrick, University of Alberta.
Chas. M. Cable, Edmonton South.
W. E. Edwards, Edmonton South.
V. S. Tebbles, Cowley, Alta.
Thos. Major, Beverly, Edmonton.
Sergeant I. V. Hall, in charge of recruiting for the Army Medical Corps for Alberta, and late of the University of Alberta, states that an overseas draft of this unit is in course of formation, made up for the most part of students, professional men and motor drivers. Young men of average intelligence are eligible for the Army Medical Corps, and an unusual opportunity is offered those who desire to go overseas with little delay. No previous experience is necessary, the work is intensely interesting and is of such a nature as to prove of inestimable value in after life.
In the last draft which left Calgary for overseas on Feb. 21st there were many men who enlisted since the beginning of the present year.
The local recruiting office is located at 10073 Jasper avenue (next to the Monarch theatre), Edmonton, where information will gladly be given, and those interested may secure on application a pamphlet describing the work of the A.M.C. at home and overseas.
