URGENT CALL MADE FOR
NURSES AT THE FRONT

The call for graduate nurses for
active service with the American ar
ms is so great az this time that the
Bureau OF Nursing OF the Northwest
Division is asking every chapter to
use it's influence in urging nurses to
enroll. IL everyone could only be
made to see the need as we see 1t and
az we know it to exist, says the Red
Cross Bulletin, no one would be say
ing, as so many do, How can we do
without the nurses at homer" Our
boys have gone to the front; they
have given up their work at a sacri-
hce, have given up their homes Tor
the tent and the trench; have offered
their lives, IL necessary, and we are
most anxious that our nurses shall
show the temper of our Western wo-
men in being ready and willing to
shoulder whatever comes for them to
do. To be willing to 30 to the can
tonments, or wherever needed.
Reports from the environments
throughout the country tell of the
danger of contracting pneumonia,
smallpox. measles, meningitis, scar
let fever. in fact most of the ailments
flesh Ia heir to. IL should not be nee
essary that these cases be taken care
of by the enlisted men who know
nothing of their seriousness; rather
should they be given the attention Of
trained hands.
At present there are three base hos
pital units needing one hundred
nurses each being recruited on the
coast, two OF them in our own divis-
ion, and. two are being held back
from service at once on account Of
the lack of nurses.
Reports from Italy, since the re-
cent unexpected reverses, say that the
Red Cross desires to send three base
hospitals to their assistance at once.
Our own boys are to 60 into the
trenches in the spring, and our own
nurses must care for them.
Refuting the statement which we
so often hear that the Red Cross
nurses are not safe, even at the hands
of our own army" it Is to be said that
in Europe they receive the most
guarded protection and supervision
at the hands of the Red Cross, and
reports regarding their condition and
and work are constantly being made.
In view of this fact, and the fact that
no nurse Is ever given an appoint
ment who Is not known to be well
trained, upright, moral girl, there is
no foundation for such statement
and no nurse need hesitate to enroll
because of fears of such condition
existing.
SO far the work, conduct and
bravery of our Red Cross nurses al
the front has shown to the world thai
American nurses are always ready II
the front ranks and will continue Il
uphold the good name of the Ameri
can women.
VIII the women of the chapters tr!
to interest the nurses in this matter
and have them write for particular

We are now requested TO eat all the

Strangest part of all this glut of

soar to make the consumer sore.
With cormeal spelling, a single corn

CHEAP FOOD.

Still people are not eating enough
potatoes to finish up the surplus left
from last years crop Old potatoes
in most communities are drug on
the market
From the mere standpoint of food
values, it's absurd not to eat more of
them when they're so cheap and SO
nourishing You can get more for
your money right now in old pota-
toes than in almost any other food
stun
Besides. we all ought to eat pota-
toes i'm order to save wheat. 10 keep
our Allies from starving.
And there are other sound reasons
Eating up the old potatoes will save
the new ones till they're better, and
thus increase food supply instead of
diminishing &C. Also. a steady demand
for The old potatoes. rs long rs they
last will keep the price from slump
ing so badly that farmers will be de
TERED from raising tubers this sea-
son. Many of them are saying already
that they don't feel like going in for
potatoes again. because there's no
money in It, They ought TO be en-
Couraged TO plant more than ever.

many race track gambling schemes
are run honestly. But even in such
cases the investor is almost certain
to lose his money. because the costs Of
operations are large and the chances
of a rich strike are small.
Anybody who goes into such
schemes should understand clearly
that he is not investing his money; he
IS betting it on a gambling PROPOSE
ton. in which the cards are stacked
against him And that is an absurd
and unpatriotic thing 10 do. when
there are so many legitimate institu-

Dear Sir:-The Committee has
caused a notification TO be sent me, Of
fering me the opportunity of CORES

across the sea. which honor | very
gladly accept.
"Ou August 10th, 1914, the Germans
entered Larraine. and in our village at
Nonhigny near Blamont on the Muir
the-and- Moselle, they burned and kill
ed all in their path that could be burn
cd or killed. They carried off my faith

fathers eyes; with a bullet through
his chin. and a bayonet thrust through
his heart
Taking advantage of a moments in
attention on the part of the Germans

ter light of the burning villages, we
hid in a wood where we could hear
the mournful sound of the automobiles
which whipped by, carrying off their
booty and the Germans were actual

were killed and two women and child
wounded by these cowardly barbar-
ians.
Finally the French came to our aid
and, after many wanderings after hav-
ing emigrated once, only to have to re-
turn to the same village to a house but
slightly damaged we gave ourselves
up into the hands o f the Germans,
who, after having made US suffer a
long time. told us one day that we
were to leave the next day. We asked
ourselves if it were not to drive us be-
fore them in another attack as they
had one with other prisoners ? But
no; after having made us walk a long
time, laden as we were, we went by
train to Rastad. the duchy of Babe;
there, they made us march around the
town to show US of to the inhabitants
who made fun of US; and they shut us
up in the Fortress, where a few of the
old people became insane.
AT last, on the eleventh day, we left
for Switzerland; We passed through

CAMRIINC INyFSTMENTS.

I'm view of widespread warnings
sent out lately regarding the invest
meut of money in dubious enterprises.
the following letter is of unusual in
terest. The writer is a salesman
handling wild cat" oil stock and the
letter is written to friend interest
ed in the proposition.
Now, understand me" says the
salesman. Il do not advise anybody to
invest I'm This oil game unless they
make up their minds to kiss it good
bye. and be surprised if they ever
get anything back. The odds are Ice
to / that YOU lose. and if you win you
get 10 or 20 TO / for your money.
Now, / haven't many friends, and
do not care to lose the few I have.
I don't advise you to put in a cent.
II YOU want 20 gamble and take the
chance. and can afford to lose the
money. neither having 10 borrow. beg
nor steal il. nor deny yourself q sin
gle thing. then take a shot But if
you can't afford to lose what you put
in, let il alone This concern will
be honestly run. but the chances Of
losing are much greater than the
chances of profit. Please preserve this
letter SO that if YOU DO invest and lose
the money you won't blame it on me.
The writer's sincerity is evident, and
his frank statements are illuminating
to anybody unfamiliar with the gen
eral nature of the oil, mining and land
development companies that have been
flooding the country with low-priced
stock issues and promises of lavish
dividends.
Some of these enterprises may be
sound. Many, as in the case of the
