IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW
BEFORE CHOOSING A
SCHOOL OF NURSING.
|. State registration is necessary in
order to become
(a) An enrolled Red Cross Nurse.
(b) A member of any National Nursing
Organization.
(c) A member of the Army and Navy
Nurse Corps, or to
(d) Be employed in any of the best
institutions in the country.
nerelOre, ScnOOl SnOuld be CHOSEN
which can prepare its students for State
Registration.
II. State Registration is effective in
forty-four States at present.
Requirement for registration is not
the same in all States; therefore, in
whatever State a student expects to
study Nursing, she should secure a
copy of the Nurse Practice Act of that
State. This can be gotten from the
State Capitol.
III. Schools of Nursing differ very
widely in the following particulars:
(a) Size Of school and character of SER
vice.
(b) Standards Of entrance.
(c) Course Of study.
(d) Living and work conditions.
(e) Reputation of school and standing
of graduates.
Therefore, close inquiry should be made
into these questions in any school it
is desired to enter.
If one is in doubt about the standing
of a school, it would be wise to consult
the Secretary of State Board of Nurse
Examiners, State House, Jefferson

Eg&A many new lessons, and chief
I<&SSsI among these we are learning to
@ plan for our country's future
welfare, to look beyond the present mo-
ment. The intelligent and educated
women of our land are. all seeking to
do their Bit and there is a wonderful
way open to them.
We need now, and for years to come,
an ever increasing number of com
petent Trained Nurses, and we need
them badly. If the war lasts as long
as many think probable, we need them
for duty with Ambulance Corps and in
Base Hospitals. If the war ends quick
ly we need them to meet the scourge
of disease that follows every great CON
flict. If we have war or not, we need
them every moment in our cities and
in our rural communities to help care
for the sick and to spread the light of
that new science-The Prevention of
Disease.
The nursing profession has no hest
tation in saying to you: ave can offer
you profession that, in rapidly in
creasing breadth and variety of oppor-
tunity, in possibilities of service, and
in vital human interest offers larger
returns to the educated woman than
almost any other profession or voca-
ton open to women"

said, when, in his pride, he followed
his triumphant way, that he was put,

mortal should display. But we ad,
mired him, just the same, and raised
our lids at his approach; for he had
scaled the heights of fame who owned
so glittering a coach But now the
man who has no cas- creates excite
ment in our town; he is unique--so
few there are who do not hold their
motors down. Men say of him, I'll

we; but he would make tinhorn bid

and the social relations, which in the
teyerish rush for personal aggrandlze-
ment and the sordid dollar these days
is in danger OF being lost sight Of.
In fact all the objects and purposes
OF tho organization are rotary. as they
all combine to make tho world so
round. They are devoted to social
service. the betterment OF mankind
and the highest development Of Amer
lean institutions. They are doing a
great work without any splutter OF
publicity or the personal exploitation
Of the club membership. They are, as
it were, injecting something of the
spiritual ethics into the prosaic stand

lean merchant marine is not build
ing up as rapidly as it should under
all the circumstances. and conditions
most favorable to it. The drift or
merchant shipping seems 10 be away
from American registry at the present
time. The only way 10 account for
such an anomalous situation is 10
seek the reason in Democratic legs
lation. Since the beginning OF this
calendar year only two vessels. both
of moderate size, belonging 10 tho
Allied nations have been transferred
to American registry. and since the
besinning OF 1916 only ii in number
from all the Allies have undergone
that process. On the other hand, dur
ing the fiscal year ending with June,
1916. American vessels were sold to
foreigners of IN aggregate tonnage OF
1Oo,479 and after the end Of the CAL
cndar year 1861" tons were added by
March 8.
This tendency Of merchant, shipping
10 foreign rather than American own
ership led 10 the Presidents proclaim
alton of February prohibiting tue
sale of American vessels 10 foreigners
without the approval of the shipping
Board, which was authorized under
the new shipping act. This raises the
question why the drift should be away
from the American flag in the recent
rather than toward 1t. as
the safer, If not the moro economical
or profitable shield. There cannot De
much question about that. 1t is gen

CHARACTERISTIC EVASION

It is Just as The Intelligencer antici-
pated. The Register in reply to tho
exposure Of its concern over the
enforced absence Of Senator Cot from
the sessions Of the Senate fails to
meet the real questions involved IN its
attacks on him.
The poor excuse" attributed to
The Intelligencer was an evasion OF
the charges made by this paper, that
behind the hypocritical profession
that the States interests in that
body were suffering through Senator
COTS absence, was the effort to pro-
woke him to resign so that his late
democratic colleague, but now q
Lame duck" complainer, might have
chance to go before the people and

PATRIOTISM AND BABIES

Last year the Children's Bureau OF
the Department Of Labor conducted
"baby-week" campaigns throughout
The country. which served to awaken
great interest in the conservation or
the Youngest citizens. There was a
great enlightening on the conditions
which impaired the strength OF the
nation and which made babies sicken
and die. In bulletin, just issued by
the bureau. it is stated that approx
mately one in Ten OF all the babies
born in the United States dies before
completing twelve months of life. 1t
was once thought that a high infant
death rate indicated a greater degree
of vigor in the survivors. Now it IS
agreed that the conditions which de-
stroy so many OF the youngest lives
Of the community must also result in
Gripping and manning many others,
