SIM raIk About oLuck.0

One of the many ways in which the
individual unwisely eclipses himself,
Is in his worship of the fetish of luck.
He feels that all others are lucky and
that whatever he attempts, fails. He
does not realize the untiring energy,
the unremitting concentration, the
heroic courage, the sublime patience
that is the secret of some mems sue
cess. Their "luck" was that they had
prepared themselves to be equal to
their opportunity when it came and
were awake to recognize it and re-
celve it.-Wllliam George Jordan.

Red Cross Nurses Doing Social
Service Work in Regions Dew
astated by the Huns.

So quietly and effectively has the
Red Cross done its work that few
Americans know that 1000 nurses
trained in our hospitals are now serv-
ing In war stricken countries.
Not all these nurses are caring for
wounded soldiers Many are doing
the same thing they did in this coun-
uy-visiting the poor and distressed,
Caring for mothers and children, nurs-
Ing tuberculous patients, carrying the
gospel Of health and hope into homes
bereft of both.
"Over there" does not mean merely
France to the Red Cross nurse as it
does to the soldier. 1t may mean Rou-
mania, Serbia, Italy, Greece, Russia or
Belgium. 1t may mean any part of
the world inhabited by our allies
where war conditions have created the
need for nursing care.
Only a short time ago little band
of faithful women wearing the dark
blue uniforms of the Red Cross left
an Atlantic port for Greece. They
sailed just as the soldiers sail. know
ing little or nothing of their actual
destination or of the nature of the
work that awaited them. All they
knew was that they would find suffer
ing to alleviate, and, true to the spirit
Of nursing, they answered its call.

with the few supplies they find at
hand.
The thought of the deprivations they
must face themselves and of the hard
ships in dealing with people whose
modes Of life are strange to them
never occurred to these nurses when
they volunteered for service. Their
only thought was that these forsaken
people needed their help, and they
went forth gladly to give it.
1t is estimated that there are more
than million destitute orphans in
France. These children must be
saved if the nation is to be preserved,
and the task of helping to save thou
sands of them is falling to our public
health nurses, who are experienced in
infant welfare work.
Amid strange surroundings. with
none OF the facilities for work that
they are accustomed to, these nurses
are doing their best to save the little
ones of the gallant defenders Of
France. They are giving the mothers
instruction in the feeding and hy-
gienic care Of their babies and striv-
ing to help them meet the appalling
conditions which the war has caused.
In France there are said to be ap-
proximately 100000 persons stricken
with tuberculosis, which has become
as great a menace to the country as
German bombs and bullets. These
people must be cared for and taught
the necessity of preventative meas
ures or else the national life will be
undermined by the disease. Again,

bers of them are already engaged in

Of the text-and then began the long
and tedious sermon.
Helen settled herself back in the
pew, her eyes on the nodding flowers
of a child's hat in the seat before her,
and her mind on Warren.
Where was he this morning7 Would
his Sunday be lonesome without her?
Would he go to his mothers for
dinner !? Would they speak much of
her? When they asked him about
her-what would they say? Oh, if
she could only know just HOW he
would speak of her. If she could
just hear the tones of his voice when
he said Helen it would tell her so
much,
While the minister droned on, Hell
en- lived over scene after scene of the
last year OF her marriage. Had it been
in her power to have made things diff
ferent? That was the maddening
question which was ever beating in
her mind. With another woman
might he have been more loving? Had
she been colder and more elusive-had
she loved him less or shown it less
might he have loved her more?

tons and friends. They stopped and

Indifferent as Warren?
She thought of the quaint old du-

sitting stiffly in a straiShtback chair,
her hands primly folded. They had
looked very simple and happy.

MARRIED LIFE.
BY Mebel Herbert Urner.
Helen Goes to Church and Thinks OF
Warren all Through the Sermon.


Warren all Through the Sermon.
Sunday morning. warm sunshiny
morning with all the softness OF
spring in the air.
1t was the rlrst sunday OF HeIen's
visit. She had awakened to find the
sun streaming in at her window, and
the room filled with the fragrance OF
cherry blossoms. She drew back the
white muslin curtains and looked out
on the old cherry tree that had bios
somed just as profusely every spring
since she could remember.
The lilies bush by the fence was
also in bloom, and a bed OF pink and
white hyacinths added their fragrance
to the air.
Over everything was the lazy space
and quiet of a village Sunday. At
ten, the stiffness was broken by the
ringing of the church bells. Helen
knew the sounds Of them all-the Bap-
fist, Presbyterian and Methodist. The
faint one in the distance was the
old Roman Catholic Church.
Aunt Mo1lie insisted on staying
home to take care of Winifred, SO
that Helen might go with her father
and mother to church.
