hens, for filthy, diseased mothers carry
sickness and death to the youngsters.
A chick with lice will stand and cry,

the disposition of the hen. If she is
not naturally good mother, there is
no remedy but to get rid of her in the

Let your poultry have the free range

The Man Who Saved Belgium

came a series of events which led
Hoover to China and Mitchell as a
general manager to Melbourne.
He was thirty-four years old by this
time, we are told by David Starr Jor-
dan in Sunset Magazine. He had gone
to the limit as a mining engineer. He
could do nothing more with it as pro-
fession except to pile up more money.
He had all the money he needed and
he wanted to do something else. There
was AgricOla, whom he would like to
translate. There was a lot of ancient
record stones from his mine on Mount
Sinai. Hoover considered entering
American politics.
When the war began there were
more than 100000 Americans scattered
over Europe. These met with all sorts
of troubles and grievances, great and
small. Some were rich and temporarily
stranded, some permanently poor,
some eking out petty incomes or ali
monies in the cheapest villages Of
Bavaria, Saxony or France. The HoOv-
ers took charge Of the commission
for their relief. The operations of the
committee at the Savoy hotel, wholly
American and wholly unpaid, showed
the marvellous Fact and skill with which
American folks can handle a new stu
alton. About 5000 Americans were
sent home, and several times that num-
Der gained temporary relief. The re-
lief of 100000 of Belgians against
democratic famine working day and
night" was problem Of infinite dimen-
sions. but Hoover tackled it as part
of the days work. II Belgium saved
Europe" as my good friend Sarolea
says it did, then America saved Bel
GUM. and Hoover was her agent.

OBLIGATION RESTS UPON THOSE AT
HOME AS WELL AS SOLDIERS At FRONT
BY REV. CHARLES sTELzIE.

For those who cannot go to War-aS
well as those who will go TO the front
there is a distinct obligation to dedi-
cate themselves to the task Of helping
on the great new brotherhood of the
world
This brotherhood will be founded
upon the revolution which is sweeping
through every country on the globe,
and which is working itself out through
the war, from the effects of which no
nation can escape.
Nor can this movement for the broth
erhOod of man be retarded by petty
hates and spites or by the ambitions
and intrigues of kings and cabinets and
the heartless Vaccinations of con-
temptuous politicians.
For hundreds of years the race of
men has been getting ready for this
world brotherhood. And all the signs
point toward the fulfllment of the
mobile ideals which has been vaguely,
though persistently floating through
the hearts and minds of those who,
each in their day and generation,
brought their contributions toward this
world democracy.
The Russia of hundreds of years is
no more-the car is gone forever.
The Germany of generations has closed
itself into be opposed by every for
ward-loOking nation, and by the larger
minded Germans themselves, until 1t
has been crushed for all time
England = elf-confdent, self-satis-
fed, luxurious, with class spirit highly
evelOped-though sound at heart
has seen the need of closer and sim
cerer cooperation with the wider-vis-
iOned nations of earth.
France-light-heart and gay, often
.careless-although it had the blood of
heroes and martyrs in it's veins-can
never again be what 1t was.

Nurses Aids May Be Needed.

material capable of proving equal to
wartime emergencies.
Nurses Aids May Be Needed.
A limited number of nurses aids
may be used at the front who lack the
wide professional training required or
the nurse. Though the greater volume
of Red Cross work must be done at
home, the experience of deepest human
interest will always be met in the
paths trod by the Red Cross nurse in
the actual care of the wounded soldier.
The professional Red Cross nurse who
is so fortunate as to reach the front
will meet with experiences to which
the supporting armies of women be-
hind the lines are strangers.
The last request of the dying soldier
is often intrusted for fulfilment to the
Red Cross nurse and his last message
to her hands for delivery. American
Red Cross nurses have served in car
ing for wounded of all European
armies since September, 1914, but with
the sending of the Pershing expedition
to the western battle front American
boys will bleed, suffer and die and the
American Red Cross nurse will share
their sorrows.
Service as Red Cross nurse, while
founded upon the principle of minis
tering to Others is not without its own
inherent hazards to those engaged, as
witnessed by the recent Mongolia in
cident, in which the lives of two Amer
lean hero nurses were sacrificed for
the American cause. The function of
the Red Cross nurse might be best
expressed in the words of Ian NAL
colin, the representative en- the British
commission recently in Washington of
the British Red Cross, who defined it
to be 'to draw a great net of mercy
through an ocean of unspeakable
pain"
Incidents are legion which show the
patriotism, heroism and bravery of
American nurses in the Red Cross

"a N of war; relief and care for
the sick and wounded and
relief to dependent fami-
lies of sOldiers-carries an appeal at
this time to the American woman exer-
cised perhaps by other organized war
effort, either governmental or private.
To those who may have felt the pull
of this appeal or who may be in con-
temptation of essaying the difficult
role of the Red Cross nurse the ques-
ton What does a woman need to
know to be eligible as a Red Cross
nurSe?" must often have occurred.
A glance at some of the most i'm
portant prerequisites TO service as a
Red Cross nurse will prove at once
that more than 90 per cent of those
who aspire to go to the front as Red
Cross nurses must be eliminated at
the start through lack of experience
necessary to fit them for the work.
The Red Cross nurse must have been
graduated from a nurses school, giving
at least two years general hospital
training in an institution caring for
both sexes and maintaining a daily
average of at least 90 patients.
Some of the Qualifications.
She must be not only of voting age,
but must have added four additional
years Of discretion and arrived at the
mature age Of twenty-five, yet she
must not have passed her fortieth'
birthday.
If her state law SO requires she must
have been registered as a nurse under
the law.
If your potential nurse has satisfied
all of the requirements already named
she must be in addition a member of
an organization affiliated with the
American Nurses association and OBJ
tain the Endorsement of it's executive
committee or two of it's officers. She
must have the Endorsement of the SUI
perintendent of the nurses school
where her diploma was acquired, the
further approval of the local commit
tee on Red Cross nursing service, and,
finally, must pass the exacting physical
examination required by the Red Cross
before assignment to active DUTY.
woman needs to know many things
and have wide experience to be eligible
as a Red Cross nurse. The work
which must be done in the case of the
wounded in hospitals not only de-
mands skill and training in the tech
nique of nursing, but also a c0nstitu-
ton accustomed to bear the strain of
physical effort and a nervous system
which will withstand shocks of what
ever intensity. The stipulations made
by the Red Cross, to be satisfied by
