Physician Is Needed in Northern Jasper County.

The patriotic wave that swept so many of the boys at Wheatfield and vicinity into the voluntary service of Uncle Sam’s army and navy and which caused such a noutpouring of money to the Red Cross, has also, taken away from that community its doctors. . Drs. Fyfe, of Wheatfield, and Hewitt, of DeMotte, are both now at Fort Benjamin Harrison and are first lieutenants in the medical corps. It is understood that this matter is being taken up by the Rensselaer physicians and that some plan will be made whereby the people that that part of the county may have efficient medical aid close at hand.
