They Undergo . Severe Training and Are
Part Of the British Army.
England does not agree with the
United States that men are better
nurses than women, said member of
one of the relief corps to New York
Tribune reporter recently. "A body Of
trained nurses would indeed be q valua-
BILE aid to the medical and surgical de-
partments of our army and navy. In
England the government established
training school where women were to
be educated for the army nearly 20
years ago. The queen founded Netley
hospital after Florence Nightingale's
work in the Crimea.
Nurses have to spend five or six
years in training, which is exceedingly
severe, and when they are graduated
they wear uniform and are part OF
the British army. They must respond
at moments notice. and with little
baggage, to 60 to any pant OF the world
where they are needed They take the
sufferers home from plague stricken
lands and from battleflelds and perform
all the arduous duties of an army
nurses life. Iwish we had such corps
In the United States. Some day the
government will wake up to the need
of it."
