Club women Of Nebraska are interested
emphatcally in health questions. One
indication of this fact-and also an indica-
ton of the efficiency and directness of
their interests the way in which they
have handled the Red Cross seal stamps.
Mrs. Albert Edholm, speaking OF the
splendid way in which Nebraska upheld
the movement, commented upon the fact
that wherever the stamps were handled by
club women they were handled expedl-
tiously and in a large number of these
places the sales were 100 per cent OF the
stamps sent. AS club women handled the
stamps in fifty or sixty Of the 100 or more
agencies throughout the state, this state
ment is significant.
There has been, in fact, notable growth
of interest in tho health question, as was
shown in the reports at the recent meet

manifesting active regard for the spread

campaign, as was recommended by the
last general convention held in Cincinnati.
