(See number 7705) Under the walls of the old Chateau these Americans are recovering from war-neurosis , as the scientists now call the condition that used to be described as "shell-shock". Capt. A.E. Dennis, AMERICAN RED CROSS hospital representative for the U.S. Army at Blois, has obtained wonderful results by taking a number of these patients away from the noise and congestion of the hospital to a quiet outdoor life in the Chateau Chambord near Blois
