RED CROSS TO RECLAIM
 SOLDIERS OLD UNIFORMS.

The United States Government, in order to conserve the Nations supply of wool, has asked the cooperation of the Red Cross and, through it, of the women of leisure in helping to reclaim and rejuVenate the uniforms discard ed by the soldiers leaving the camps to embark for France.
 When the men in the camps get their summer wear they return their winter apparel to the Quartermaster's Depart ment. Next fall, when new winter out fits are distributed, the men will turn over the uniforms they now are wear ing. Nothing is thrown away, and as a result, the camps throughout the country have a large store of old uni forms and other wear which must be repaired for use for rough work either at cantOnments or across the water.
 The renovation of old uniforms re- gently was started by the Reclamation Department at Camp Upton, but the work Is not going on with sufficient rapidity.
 So it was put up to the Red Cross, which decided, at the request of the Government, to carry on this work, utilizing the services of volunteer workers in New York. If 1t proves successful here it will be inaugurated all over the country.
 Through the Atlantic Division the New York County Chapter of the Red Cross has taken hold of it, naming one of its auxiliaries as the first RecIa- nation Station. Uniforms will be secured at the camps before being for Warded to the station.

PERSHING RULES AGAINST
 SPECIAL SHIPMENTS ABROAD,

No specially designated shipments will he accepted by the Red Cross. This ruling is absolute and Is in ac- cordance with the order issued by General Pershing.
 This ruling, which has just been is- sued hy the Foreign Relief Depart ment of the Red Cross. will serve to allay> the confusion that has seemed to exist in the minds of some war work CTS that big consignments of articles might be, sent to specially designated points. This. however, Is not the case, and everything must go through the regular channels and be redistributed where the need is greatest. This ap- plies both at home and abroad.

25,OOO NURSES
 ASKED TO ENROLL
 FOR WAR SERVICE
Red Cross Undertakes Task Ot Recruiting Number Needed
 by Army and Navy.
Women Urged to Enter Training Schools and Public Generally
 Asked to Help.

NurSesl Nursesi Nurses! This cry is being sounded everywhere by the American Red Cross. which has undertaken the task of enrolling more than 25,OOO nurses for Army and Navy service before January l. 1919.
 Nurses, first of all. for overseas, eantOnment and naval hospital serv- Ice, and after that, nurses for every other seryice-fOr civilian hospitals, for public health stations. And last, but not least, the embryo nurses young girls for training schools in either military or civilian hospitals.
 To prevent any serious shortage of skilled nurses to care for civilian sick in American cities, every married nurse, or nurse not now engaged in active nursing and not eligible for army service, is urged to enroll with the American Red Cross as a Home Defense Nurse, for assignment a few hours daily or weekly to nursing neignbOrs in emergencies and nursing In hospitals and dispensaries, baby saving stations and similar activities
 Others will be needed to assist In carrying on the work of district visit ing or public school nursing. These additional nurses will render local service and at the same time will re lieye from civilian duty many others who are needed sOrely in military and naval establishments. The nurses, in addition. are asked to enroll for emer- Kency service in local disasters which F.,s. n.,,s >R nurses.
 Nursing Conservation.
 If all civilians who need skilled nurs- Ing are to have care, 1t is important, the American Red Cross points out, that as few nurses as possible be em- plOyed for all their time to care for a single patient. The public. therefore. is urged to employ an individual trained nurse only in case of real ne eesslty and to utilize visiting nurses for hospitals wherever accessible.
 These measures, together with the past time service of married nurses, 1t Is believed, will go far toward pro- Vidlng adequate nursing service for the civilian population in the United States.
 If nurses and the public generally are willing to make such adjustments as may be necessary the American Red Cross believes 1t will be able to recruit sufficient nurses for military duty without endangering the health of communities or disturbing the SUD- ply of nurses for the future. The American Red Cross recognizes that 1t is imperative to maintain the teaching and the executive staffs of schools for nurses that there may be no interrup- ton in the supply of graduate nurses and that economical nursing may be available for the civilian sick. It real iKes also the necessity of safeguarding to the utmost the health of the com munity through the service of the pub lie health nurses.

in England only few days so haven't
been around much, but it looks all
right so far as l have been able to see.
The city of Winchester is really about
the most famous city in England from
historic standpoint, having been the
capital Of England for about five humid
red years, and there are some famous
old buildings here. Our lieutenant is
going to take US around bit so we
can see some of the sights You per-
haps know that we (the Livens) have
distant relatives by the name of Win
chester. Our squadron has been do
ing lot of travelling for the past two
months and have covered many thous-
and miles.
We were not bound for Winchester
when we left the States, but we came
on the Tuscania which was torpedoed
and we are located here in a rest
camp for a few days. Suppose you
have read about the Tuscania and
know that the 158th was on it. When
the torpedo struck us I was down
deep in the boat The lights went
out and it was some squabble to get
up three flights of stairs onto the
deck. The life boat which l was as
signed to couldn't be gotten down and
l was really lucky as torpedo boat
finally came alongside of us and we
slid down a rope to the boat. We
were taken to British rest camp in
Ireland where we were we'll cared for
and entertained by the soldiers (most
Of them Scotch and Irish). Ireland is
very pretty place; as green as you
can imagine from the songs 1t rains
here about every fifteen minutes.
1t is really spring time here onw
We will be moving to another camp
soon I think. The 158th lost only a
few men. One of my best friends, a
fellow from New York, was lost. He
told me several times of how we
would hit New York when we got
back. Our records were all lost and
have to be made over again, which is
some job. Will write again
