Dr, George H. Conklin now a Major in the Medical Corps. — Miss C. 
C. Haynes, who is acting as Curator of the S. M. S. collections of hepatics dur- 
ing Dr. Conklin’s absence in France, sends the following extract from a Superior, 
Wisconsin, newspaper: 
“Dr. George H. Conklin, the only Superior physician to reach France, 
has been appointed major in the medical corps of the United States army by 
reason of his ‘exceptional and efficient services in the hospitals of France.’ 
“Major Conklin enlisted in the fall of 1917 in the medical reserve corps. 
He was ordered to Fort Riley, receiving a captaincy at that time. He remained 
at Fort Riley from February 12, 1918, until May, when he was sent with the 
May replacement regiment to France. The command of this regiment of phys- 
icians was placed in Captain Conklin. 
“Arriving in France, Major Conklin was assigned to U. S. Base Hospital 
No. 1 at Vichy, where he was in charge of one of the many hospital buildings 
until February 1, 1919. Following his work at Vichy he was ordered to Paris 
for reassignment. He was next stationed at Camp Hospital No. 1 at Gondre- 
court, where he was recently commissioned major.”
