SKIN ERUPTION ON CHEEK

Kingsley, Mich.-Last May my
thirteen-months-old baby had q sore
come on her cheek. It started in four
or i've small pimples and In two or
three hours time spread to the size Of
. silver dollar. It spread to her eye.
Then water would run from the pim-
pies and wherever that touched II caus-
ed more sores until nearly all one
cheek and up her nostrils were one
solid sore. She was very fretful. She
certainly was terrible looking child.
and nothing seemed to be of any use.
Then got some Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. She tried to rub
on everything We put on SO that We
would sit and hold her hands for two
hours at q time, trying to give the
medicine a chance to help her, but
after / washed It with Cuticura Soap
and then put on the Cuticura Oint.

Wher Colonel Glider had been

the cook to care for the house, he had

A lady changed from her old way Of

NURSES WORK HAS
BEEN ENLARGED
Not Only Sick Bed Attendant, but
Important Community Factor.

Some idea Of the importance Of the vo-
cation OF trained nurse. numerically at
least. may be had from the fact that II
takes about twelve hundred schools to
accommodate the student body. which
register about 5000 students yearly.
And some idea Of the social importance
of the trained nurse may be had from
the fact that the demand for her az .
factor for the good of the community
far exceeds the supply. in spite Of that
student body Of 5000.
This demand il supplemented by the
economic necessity that induces hospit-
ais to subordinate the higher prereQui-
sites Of their training schools in order
to have available a full stan of proba-
TONERS and student nurses. as the most
economical expedient by which the sick
OF the hospitals may be nursed.
The real problem Of the nursing pro-
fession. as set forth by Its leaders, Is
how to meet the social demand and the
economic necessity and at the same time
raise the standard Of the profession as
they are convinced II must be raised.
Relation to Society.
For the trained nurse. they tell you.
has as close a relation to society as the
teacher, and far more intimate and wide-
reaching than the doctor. 1t is plain
that IL she is to rise to the highest pos
sibilities she must possess the fullest
sense of responsibility and ability and
educational advantage. And you are not
apt to get that sort Of woman for nurs-
Ing, while hospitals. because Of limited
appropriations, must insist that student
nurses shall spend a great part Of their
time In the discharge Of housekeeping
duties.
Some Of women leaders OF the profess
sion occupy administrative positions Of
trust and responsibility, as well as tbs
women who. in private nursing. have
defined new fields of service, are meeting
the prospect with understanding. They
have set up the new standard. and are
insisting upon the full achievement.
Ably supplementing their efforts are
men and women doctors whose realiza-
ton of the possibilities Of the nursing
profession is likewise keen.
NURSES Many Fields.
The trained nurse Is not restricted to
her capacity of sick-bed attendant. That
is among her most limited capacities.
Through the school service she Is enter
ing into the homes Of the poor. as teach
er Of prophylaxis, Of sanitation, of hy-
siene, Of morals, and Of domestic science.
Through the social service department 4
of the big hospitals she is discharging
these same duties toward society.
In the fight against tuberculosis. in
child welfare work. in industrial welfare
work. in all distinctively social work,
she is coming to be recognized az per-
haps the best social asset Of the times
With all that granted. it is hardly to-
be wondered at that the leaders. Jealous
for their work and jealous for the COM
munity's benefit. are trying to insure
the presence of the highest type Of wom-
an in the nursing ranks.
