Nursing as Career; Free Training Pro-
vided

1t is said that nursing is one of the
most inviting fields of human service
and that its financial return surpass-
any other occupation open to young
women. 1t develops all the native
graces of womanhood and leads the
way to positions of trust and infiu-
ence. The demand for more nurses
is a world wide call.
The Philadelphia School for nurses,
located in Philadelphia, Pa, has I'M
dertaken to meet this demand by Of
fering free scholarships to young wo-
men in all parts of the country.
Room, board, laundering, incidental
expenses, special financial assistance
and railroad fare home on completion
of the course, are provided. Length
of course two years. Also a special
short course and home study course
for those who must quickly prepare
for Self-Support.
The Philadelphia school for nurses
is benevolent institution conducted
) without hope of gain or profit in the
interest of ambitious young women

Choosing a Site for Farm Buildings

his farm buildings, must keep in
mind the beauty of the location and
the business advantages which it may
furnish. Good business demands,
too, that the farm buildings shall be
arranged so as to protect the family
from diseased that are caused by I'M
cleanliness.
If you take real pride in the home
you are building, the second question
to be considered is the arrangement
of the buildings so that they afford a
good view of the landscape from the

the authorities on the subject at the

around it. A wallow near the well is
often the cause of typhoid fever.
The house should be built near
enough to the road so that you may
be able to see friends when they pass
by and thus visit informally with
them The house should be on high
