This however, is fact in every line

make the usual highway Improvements
during 1918. as has been made during
each Of the past years. Should condi-
lions be such, owing to shortage of la

could not be made To advantage, then
and iu that case the work could be
held up until such time as conditions

WILL PAY FOR
LIBERTY :.
ADVERTISING
From One to Two Millions
Will Be Spent by U. S.
in Next Campaign
By Associated Press

Washington, Aug. ia detailed
plan for advertising the next issue of
Liberty Loan bonds in newspapers and
other mediums of publicly, to cost
from $1,000. 900 to $4,000, 900 and to be
paid for by the Government, was pre-
sented to-day to Secretary McAdoo by
the National Advertising Advisory
Board. with the recommendation that
1t be adopted.
On the basis of an expenditure OF
$1,OOO,O0O, the following distribution
OF the fund was suggested:
Daily, monthly and weekly pa
eign language. 100000; farm pa
pers, 100000; small town daiiies
and weeklies, $100,000; printing
posters, circulars. etc, 100000.
The mediums which the board pro-
poses to use are detailed as follows:
Newspapers, magazines, farm papers,
business press, religious press, for
egn language press, painted bulletins,
olllooards, street cars, circulariza-
tlons' house organs and factory bulle-
tins.
Page 1 Ads
"hlle the great bulk of the daily
press VIII expect to charge for space"
the Doards recommendations say, "it
VIII gladly give the minimum rate.
although the amount of space to Be
used would not enttle the Govxern-
ment to that rate, and will give pre-
Ierred position to the Advertising
some full pages would be used under
TINS plan, but it is also proposed to
institute an entire innovation by rum
ming small advertisements, such as
seVenty-fve lines deep by two col
umns' on the front page.
RMS is something that no other
advertiser could buy at any price be-
cause Of the fact that almost without
exception newspapers refuse to carry
advertising on the front pages. A
number of leading dailies have agreed
that hey will break the rule for the
sake of furthering the sale of these
bonds"
The amount available for floating
the second issue of the Liberty Loan
mas not been disclosed, nor has the
sum spent on the first issue been
made public.

THE PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE.

The trained nurse is recognized as
one of the greatest institutions of
the age. Her work is second only to
the doctors and in some diseases is
as important as his. Generally she
is the most consecrated of Gods crea-
lures, who lets no personal comfort
or desires and between her and those
to whom she administers. Hers is a
life of sacrifice to duty performed
with cheerfulness, because she knows
that it helps to minimize human mis-
cry and restore the sick to health
and vigor. Her sympathetic manner
is assuring to the patient and the
neatness of her person imparts les
son of cleanliness while her very
presence is a stimulus to good morals
and good economics. In the public
health work she has proved her in
profession contented itself with cur
ing disease. Now it's greater efforts
are directed to prevention and in the
effort the public health nurse is it's
greatest aid in promoting hygenic
principles and intoxicating the impor-
lance of pure water, pure air, santa
ton, ventilation, proper housing and
general cleanliness.
In those communities that have
Public Health and Welfare Leagues
and employ public health nurses they
have shown their worth and proved
the best investment that could be
made in visiting homes where COM
municable diseases exist to limit their
spread, making school inspections
for defective sight and other defici-
encies and impressing by educational
talks the Importance of observing
certain laws of health without which
disease, death and sorrow will pre-
vail. Every county should have one
or more of these angels of mercy
