TRAINING SCHOOL FOR NURSES

TRAINING SCHOOL FOR NURSES.
There is in this hospital training
school for nurses, the object of which
is to fit young men and women for the
profession of nursing. They not only
become familiar with the care of the
insane, but are trained in general
nursing as well, so that after taking
two years course, and graduating
they will be competent to do any kind
of nursing and will be much better
trained than the graduate of a gener-
al hospital; because the training in
the care of the insane teaches them
to think and act for the patient, as
well as to wait upon him
The course of study is graded and
extends over two years, consisting of
lectures and practical instruction in
all the details Of the care of the sick
and insane. Young men and women
taking this two years course of train
ing receive an amount of culture,
independent of their training as
nurses, which will fit them for any
occupation they may choose TO take up
after graduation, and it has the great
advantage Of teaching them To be Or

merit until after six months they are
paid S25 20. Graduates may for good
and extended service be paid $50 90
per month. Women are paid $1,000
the first month to be gradually in
creased TO $500 after six months.
Graduates may be paid $500. Board,

REDISTRICTING THE COUNTY.
Three Plans for Equalizing the Popu
Iation of Commissioner Districts.

lation of Commissioner Districts.
The committee of the board of
trade appointed to appear before the
county board and ask that the county
be redistricted into commissioner dis
tricts, as required by law, has pre-
pared three plans for submission to
the board. 1t is not claimed that any
of them are perfect, and none of
them will be urged upon the board,
but they are to be submitted as sug-
gestions which may abe of service in
accomplishing the redistricting.
The population of the county is
80, $3.50, and the average population Of
the five commissioner districts ought
to be 6,476. Mankato is the second
district, with population of 1918,
and pays one third of the taxes of the
county, yet only has representation
of one-tifth of the board.
The first plan, which seems to US to
be the best, divides the county up as
follows:
First district-LeRay, Decoria, Nc
Pherson, Beauford, Danville and
Medic. Population, 6,275.
Second district-First and Second
wards of MankatO, Mankato town.
ship, Jamestown and Lime. Popu-
lation, 6,SS7.
Third district-Third, Fourth Fifth
and Sixth wards of Mankato. Popu-
lation, 1924.
Fourth district-Cambrla, Butter
nut rValley, Judson, South Bend,
Rapidan, Garden City, Lincoln and
Ceresco. Population, 6,275.
The second plan is the same as the
first, except that Jamestown is plac-
ed in the first instead of the second
district, and Danville is placed in
the fifth instead of the first. Accord
ing to this arrangement, the first dis
trict would have. 6,5O5, population,
the second 5,94i, the third, 1924, the
fourth 6,57S, and the fifth 6,9S2.
The third plan divides the county
as follows:
First district-Lime, Jamestown,
LeRay, Mcpherson, Decoria and
Medic. Population, 6,366.
Second district-First, Second and
Third wards of Mankato and Manka-
to township. Population, 6,762.
Third district-Fourth, Fifth and
Sixth wards, South Bend, Judson and
Cambria. Population, 6,4S2
Fourth district-Butternu Valley,
Lincoln, Garden City, Rapidan, Yer
non Center and Lyra. Population,
6,l9O.
Eth district-Ceresco, Pleasant
Mound, Shelby, Sterling, Beauford,
Mapleton and Danville. Population,
6,261.
Another plan was prepared, which
would divide the city among three
districts, but that was abandoned, as
it was not thought that it would be
acceptable to the commissioners in
any event.
The population cannot be made
exactly the same in the different dis
tricts, because of the population of
the townships comprising them. The
first plan throws the townships hav-
ing similar interests together into
districts more than the other plans,
and for that reason seems to be the
best.
The county board will meet next
Monday.

Dear Times:-The beautiful month Of
Nav with its soft, delightful season, laden
with the sweet fragrance of our choice
flowers, has promised for US blessings,
happiness, and pleasures in many ways.
First and above all it has brought a season
of divine blessings. and the goodness Of
Gods grace is wondrouslv wrought in the
hearts of our people. We live in a pro-
gressive age. when the strides of the seven
liberal arts of sciences is qnickening its
pace and the FIVE orders Of the human
senses devel,p ,ping their services to deeds
more charitable, and We rejoice with these
refreshing showers of Gods rich grace that
leads the progressive sciences and puts 4
new soag in the human senses. Some Of
the occupations may have their shadows
adorned with silver lining, but as Rev.
Cough in yo2r last Issue Of the Times has
truthfully said, occupation forcibly di-
verts the mind. and prayer sweetly soothes
the soul." Write more, brother. Some
NAV fall in good ground, that may bring
abundant harvest May the Inspiration
of the Great Teacher give power 20 your
thoughts and souls for heaven.
The beautiful month Of May has given
US prospects with hopes OF bread another
wear and all other crops at this season is
promising fair, the refreshing rains are
falling here and there in due season, and
the health of our country is not disturbed
by any serious epidemic. We
hear ever and anon the
merry laugh of happy children as they
celebrate the festivities of the month of
flowers. that make the eyes of mother and
father rejoice as they think of days gone
by, when they, too, like these happy chill
dren played among the flowers and wadad

The custom in this county of re-
cent years has been for the executive

to cover State and County elections,
besides, the managers of the primary

the committee does meet, among its
first acts will be to assess every can
didate the usual fee The county
executive committee has number
of candidates on it, but they will not
oppose.the assessment of candidates,
because each one of them is too pa
triotic to expect men to serve IN the
