ENROLLED UNDER RED CROSS
Greek Girls, Trained Here as Nurses,
Will Do Work Of Mercy In Their
Own Country.

Greek girls In the uniforms of
American Red Cross nurses are now
serving in the hospitals Of Greece.
These girls are part of Il number from
New England who, anxious to help
their fellow C1unlrymcn. decided to
become nursing aids, says the public
information bureau. Washington.
They enrolled in training courses in
the Massachusetts General hospital
and other Boston hospitals, where
they soon became proficient in their
work. Recently four Of them, who
had practically completed their
courses, decided that they would like
to 60 back to Greece with the Aincri'
can mission which was just then about
to leave. Through the Greek legation
they applied for permission to 20 with
this mission as members OF the Amer
ican Red Cross
Now they are not only serving their
own people, but are also creating n
feeling in Greece witch ccmcnts the
long friendship Of the Greeks with
America. Although no American
troops have been landed on Greek
soil, the people are nevertheless
pleased with the sight Of an Amcrl-
can uniform, no matter what branch
Of the service It represents.
Another group Of Greek girls in
Boston is taking up courses at Sim
mons college In dietetics, domestic
science and home aid. These girls
also expect shortly TO sail for Greece.
