school recently established by au-
thority of the war department with
branch schools in selected military
hospitals; as engaging to hold

the army nursing school. Those
who enroll will be called where the
first need arises. The government
hopes that a majority of those who
enroll will thus put down their
names for both.
There are 1,579 nurses training
schools in the country. Their need
is as great and imperative as that
of the army school OF nursing.
Those who enroll for these schools
will be assigned as vacancies oc-

The term of training varies from
two to three years, according to the
requirements of the particular
school to which the student nurse
may be sent. No course takes less
than two nor more than three
years.
