Uncle Sam is going TO pay the cost
this year of supplying vaccine to per-
sons wishing to be immune against
typhoid fever and smallpox. Stations
will be established throughout Virginia
to furnish all corners with vaccine.
and there will be no charge attached.
either for furnishing il or injecting IT,.
DR.. Roy *. Flanna gan. Chief Health
Oficer. said yesterday that he had been
advised by the United States Public
Health Service that the VACCINE would
be furnished free. This isl an oppor-
tunity which no person should over
look" said DR.. Flanagan. AT this
season many thermometers arc leaving
town for the seashore or the mountains
and they should be especially careful.
At most resorts where they will go,
the water and milk supplies will not
be as carefully safeguarded as they
are IN Richmond. BY this I do not
in the least mean that those who stay
at home should not be inoculated.
Every one should do So"
While the vaccine will be available
at the Health Department, the Rich
mond station will be in charge of DR..
William Russell Jones, of the Public
Health Service. Vaccine may also be
obtained from the State Board of
Health.
Besides Richmond. other stations will

Announcement Will be made through
the press as soon as the first shin
ment OF vaccine arrives.

STATE BOARD TO GIVE
COURSE IN NURSING
VIII Train Graduate Nurses to Tnkc
Up Public Health
Work.

Intended primarily as an emergency
measure to equip graduate nurses who
cannot afford to go to Columbia, Sin
mons and schools OF that type, TO AXE
the courses offered TO graduate nurses,
a course in public health nursing will
he given in Richmond under the di-
rection of the State Boar of Health,
beginning July IL and lasting until
september /. This course will be an
intensive study of the practical prob
lens connected with public health nurs-
ing in the South. Its aim will be to
outline and suggest some of the &C
ccpted means of solution. and to give
nurses going into new fields a funda-
mental working knowledge of the prob
lens they may expect.
This growing demand for public
health nurses far exceeds the supply.
and the demand will increase with the
supply. a few years hence nurses will
not be eligible to these positions with
out a postgraduate course OF from
four to eight months. In Virginia at
least six new positions will be open
in the fall 10 energetic. enthusiastic
nurses. This demand for the services
OF public health nurses, DIR. Roy *.
Flanagan. R~ichmond's Chief Health
Officer. regards as one OF the signs
OF the times which most strongly in
dicatcs tho upward and outward growth
of the desire for civic bcttermcnt among
southern people.
These positions start with a salary
OF 5000 n year, with the possibility of
working up 10 $1,000. if the nurse
makes good. Women at the top OF the
ruhlic health nursing profession are
making from $4,000 TO $4,000 a wear.
and just now there is lots Of room At
the top, particularly in the South. No
expense is connected with the course
offered by the State Board beyond boar I'd
and hooks-thc latter costing about $40.
Ihose desiring TO take this course
should write Mrs. ]. b. Ransom. State
Supervisor of Public Health Nursing,
mo Capitol Street. Richmond, not later
than Thursday of this week. since the
course cannot he given unless a sufi-
cient number apply to make IL worth
while.
