Our Heroic Men.
AND WOMEN TOO.
"GOD MADE 'EM TO MATCH THE MEN.
A very interesting letter from Nurse Evelyn Humphries, has been received by Mirs W. Hugh McMahon, from Heliopolis, Palace Hospital, Egypt.
It ran thus :" We have left Lemnos and returned to Heliopolia, but we are only here for a little while and expect to move somewhere else shortly. I was scary to leave Lemnos for many reasons but of course, for others I am glad. For instance, it was delightful to get a bath and clean clothes and the fresh things to eat after so much tinned food was very welcome. At first it was hard work to get sufficient food for our boys let alone ourselves. We belonged to the stationary (first after a clearing), not to the General Hospital there, where were 23 sisters, while at the General there were over 100 ; nevertheless I am glad to be one of the 23. "Previously they had no sisters, so the men were more than pleased to have us to look after them. Poor chaps ! They needed it, too. Most of them were on the ground, and to attend to one man you knelt on the next man's mattress, and as these were jammed close together, you had to be careful lest you knelt on your patient. Each tent served 20 men. We were wanted there it ever we were in our lives, and I was so glad to be one of the fortunate ones chosen, though at the time we did not consider ourselves fortunate."The day we landed the officer in charge came down to meet us and said,"Oh, you have come to a dreadful place. Everyone dies here -two sisters died last week " Very cheerful, was it not ? I may have to return to Australia on transport, but I hope not. I have no wish to return until it is all over, but the sooner that is so the better. I cannot say enough for our boys -we had Greeks, French and Turks as well as our own and English boys at Lemnos, but no one comes up to our own Australians - they are fine ! I know which I would rather nurse. I consider they deserve everything we can give them. Our men have won a name for courage and endurance, but me thinks our women are heroines, too. "God made 'em to match the men."
