ENLIST NURSES HERE
Kansas Divided Into Three Districts
for Red Cross Campaign.

Four Red Cross nurses, appointed
field secretaries for the nurse cam
paign, will visit every Kansas town
during the course of the next two
weeks enrolling nurses for active serv-
ice during the period of the war. The
state has been divided into three dis
tricts. Miss Helen Farnsworth of
Rosedale is in charge of the northern
district, Miss Pearl Martin of Topeka
is in charge of the central district,
and Sister Catherine Voth of Newton
and Miss Sybilla MuntZ of Wichita are
in charge of the southern district.
These women will make complete
survey of the nurses in Kansas. They
will register the institutional public
health and school. private duty and
retired nurses according to the service
each can give toward winning the war.
There are many nurses in the state
who are not in active duty. They will
be brought back into active service for
home defense duty. helping to take
care of the sick within their own COM
munities that the active nurses who
are capable of overseas service may
be sent TO France.
The shortage of nurses is so acute
that every woman trained in this serv-
ice must be enrolled for active duty.
In nursing. the women have an OPP
portunity to do actual military service
as well as their brothers who are on
the firing line and the women at home
ice must be ready to take the places
of the women who go overseas, that
the sick at home may have proper
care

State Fire Marshal Issues Order
Against Joy OF Youngsters.

Fireworks in Kansas are to be under
the ban during the war. according to
an order issued by L. T. Hussey, state
fire marshal. Each year since the
fire marshals office has been estab-
lished, an early-summer warning was
issued against owning, carrying, SELL
ing or using fireworks of any de-
scription within a few thousand feet
of anywhere. Now the gloom which
overlook the Kansas youngsters with
the arrival of the fire marsha1's Of
flee, is extended for the duration of
the war.
Hussey's order is sent out as war
measure. 1t forbids the use, sale or
keeping of fireworks within 1000 feet
of any building or stack of grain and
practically puts a -crimp in any
youthful desire to celebrate the Fourth
In the old-fashioned way. Youngsters

Corn Greatly Improved by the
Recent Moisture

: Crops were improved in all parts of
Kansas this week by warm weather,
sufficient moisture, and soaking rains,
which furnished all the moisture
needed in the eastern two-thirds and
effectually broke the drought in the
western third, where the amounts
ranged from an inch and three quar-
ters to five inches and a half the
weekly report of the local office of
the u S. weather bureau announces.
Wheat improved in all sections and
many fields in the western part that
were believed to have been ruined by
drought now give indications of a
fair yield. In the important wheat
producing counties in the south-cen-
trail portion, the crop has almost en-
tirely recovered from the effects of
the dry weather and hot winds of a
short time ago. 1t is in full head in
the eastern third and blooming to the

over his opponents in the chamber of

The following article was written
by ]. C. McNealus, editor and owner
OF the Dallas, Texas, Democrat, who
has been q lifelong democrat and II
at present state senator from the
Dallas district:
In the genral elction held through
out the country, on Nov. s, an out
standing political reverse was admin
istered to the national democratic ad-
ministration. say political reverse
in order to distinguish between the
party policy and the war policy of
President Wilson. The party policy
Of President Wilson has been emphat-
ically repudiated. The war policy
has not been repudiated. Democrats
defeated their own party on Tuesday,
Nov 8, as protest against belittle-
ment Of recognized party leaders and
the party organization generally as q
force worthy of preferential conside-
ration. There has been too much
'Me;" too much Son-in-law; toe
much Col" Ed House, to be pleasing
to the party rank and file. Old lead
ers Of the party. both in the north and
in the south, have been ignored and
a small group Of comparative new
corners, who have never done any
thing for the party. have been close to
the throne. II has been evident for
the past six months that the demo
craic party was doomed to defeat in
the congressional elections OF 1918
and that the outlook for success in
the presidential election of 1890 was
only q mere shadow.
Wilson Would Have Lost.
Had President Wilson been a can.
didate for reelection on November g.
It is my candid Judgment that he
would have been defeated most i'm.
pFesslvely-purely on his party poll.
cy. No man in American politics can
DO bigger or better than his party
This ls true Of the republican as well
as the democratic party. President
Wilson has posed as being superior
to both the leadership and the ranh
and flle Of his party. He has chilled
the leaders and lost popularity with
the mass Of democrats, because Of
numerous cases Of political ingrati.
tude.
This democratic defeat on Novem'
Der in no wise condemns the wal
policy OF the party in power. Presi
dent Wilson has conducted the war
since the United States entered it.

American would have done. "wil
