Contributions for Tubercu-
lOsis Victim Coming in
Slowly But a Great Deal
More Is Needed.
CASH IS NEEDED RIGHT NOW
While the Charitably Inclined Hesitate
the Man is Slowly Dying for Want
Of Proper Treatment in
Sanitoriuln.

tfThe road to he'll is paved with
good intentions, is an old proverb,
but the newer one EDO 1t Now" is
much better.
While many of the people of Ke-
nosha are exemphfying the truthful
ness of the former, in the case of the
poor censpmptive who is slowly dy-
ing for lack of money with which to
pay for his admission to and treat
ment in a tuberculosis sanitorium, it
would be much better if they would
obey the latter and do it now.
Some money has been received by
the Associated Charities for the bene-
fit of this stricken man but it is not
sufficient to pay for his treatment for
such time as it is possible for it to
do him any good. The money so far
received would pay for his treatment
only about one month. But while he
is stin struggling along trying to earn
some money to support his wife who
also is at work there are many Keno
sha people who are intending to con-
tribute something toward his relief,
but they are not "Doing it Now. I"
Now is the time the money is need
ed. Not a month from now when the
dread disease has had that much more
time TO undermine his health and bring
him that much nearer to the grave, or
has enfeebled him to such an ex-
tent that it would be useless to try to
save him.
The money you expect to contri-
butte is worth more to him today than
it viii even be worth to him again.
Every day he is growing that much
weaker; every day the insidious dis
ease is fastening itself that much more
firmly upon his vita1s and render
his recovery just that much more
difficult.
The money you expect to contribute
if contributed now viii do some good.
The money you expect to contribute if
paid in much later win only be avail
able to buy flowers for his casket. Do
it now.
Send these contributions to the As
ISOLATED Charities. Miss Elizabeth
Timme, acting superintendent, is look
ing after this matter. Do not send
money to the Kenosha Evening News.
Some well intentioned persons have
sent money to the News for this pur-
pose and it has been turned over to
the Associated Charities, but it is just
as easy for you to send it to that or
ganization as it is to the News and it
will be right where it is needed with
out any more trouble of taking It
there.

The local Red Cross Chapter is in re-
ceipt Of the following letter which
is self explanatory:
November Is, 1918.
Mr.. A. Terrell, Chairman Kenosha
Chapter Red Cross.
Dear Mr.. Terrell
A telegram has come from Washing
ton from which the following is
an excerpt:
1.-THE calls from our commissions in
many parts of the world, make known
the unlimited need for civilian relief.
Chapters therefore should be instruct
ed to finish at once uncompleted orders
of refugee garments so as to be pre-
pared to take care OF additional orders.
Refugee garment work at this time is
all emergency and should be stimulated
to the utmost. The need for civilian
relief for the winter is pressing and
one garment now will be of infinitely
greater service in saving life than
many garments will be in three or four
months from now. Surgical dressings
workers should know of this need for
refugee. garments and should be urged
to enlist in this work. Further in
structions win follow immediately
You viii notice that Washington is
preparing for a tremendous demand on
our resources. I am writing you per-
sonaHy to ask your help in the emerg-
ency which is ahead of us. We will be
called upon to do things quickly, and
just because the war is practically over
and we are hoping soon to have our
boys home again, we must not let our
interest wane in caring for the poor
unfortunate people who are still home
less and destitute.
It must be our pride to do our work
thoroughly and well as our soldiers
have done theirs. Will you help me-
and win you ask all your splendid
workers to stand ready so that when
the call does come we may waste no
time, but put forth all our efforts
like the good soldiers we have al
ways been.
Large quotas may not come to you
Immediately in spite of the great need
because of difficulty in obtaining ma
terials. This makes it all the more
necessary to produce present as web as
future quotas quickly, even though this
may cause lack of work between quotas.
Sincerely yours,
Carlyn M. Ely,
Supt. III. and r. Garments.
From the above all will see the urgent
need of workers at all times.

Woman's Committee of the
County Council of Defense
Gets New Call for
Women for Service.
ONLY HALF or QUOTA READY
Eight Hundred and Thirty Four Young
Women Must Be Enlisted in Wis
consin Before the End of the
Year-Fifteen More Needed.

The possibilities Of peace has not
ended the call of the nation for stu
dent nurses and Mrs. Dan O. Head,
Chairman of the Woman 8 Committee
of the County Council of Defense has
received new call from Mrs. Henry
I'll. Morgan, chairman of the Woman s
Committee of the State Council of De-
tense asking that new campaign be
innaugurated at once to secure more
recruits for the nurses reserve. Mrs.
Mihcent Northway who had charge of
the first successful campaign for the
enlistment of student nurses in Keno
sha is to have charge of the new CAM
paign and applications for places in
the service are to be accepted at the
office Of Mrs. Northway at the Keno
sha Hospital.
In her. letter Mrs. Morgan says
"More student nurses are needed.
OnlyNa little over half the number for
the United States have been secured.
We have sent 726 complete applica-
tions to Washington, and all hope to
send in 834 more before the close of
this year in order to make up the
quota required from this state. Please
renew the champaign in your county"
Changes have been made in the de-
tails for recruiting which it is expected
will make it possible for a much larger
number Of young women to answer the
call to service Tt is expected that with
the return of sick and wounded soldiers
who have been fighting In France the
demand for nurses in this country is
going to be greater than ever before.
The nation is planning for the OPEN
ing Of great convalescent hospitals and
nurses must be secured to have charge
of the work in these hospitals.
For the civilian training schools no
more applications may be received
from young women who have not had
two years training in high schools or
an acceptable equivalent. In the new
applications the young women who
may have preferences along religious
lines in the selection Of schools win
be allowed to state such preferences
and if possible they will be assigned
to schools which will be entirely con-
genial to them.
Young women who enlist for serv-
ice in the army school Of nurses win
be furnished with transportation from
their homes to the placer where the
units to which they may be assigned
are being trained. Even Incidental ex-
penses which may be incurred by the
nurses win be returned to them after
they have been finally received into
the service.
Ten young women from Kenosha have
been accepted for the students nurses
training corps and they are all now in
the service in hospitals in different
parts of the country. About half of
this number are in army hospital serv-
ice. Others were recruited during the
drive in Kenosha some time ago but
they failed of acceptance. The origin
al quota for Kenosha county was placed
at twenty-five nurses. In order to meet
fully the demand made on this county
fifteen nurses must be found in the new
drive.
