Big Campaign Is
On For Recruiting
Trained Nurses

North Dakota's quota Of the 1000
nurses each week. which has been
asked by the surgeon general Of the
army. is 16 nurses per week. This
district Of the state is expected to
furnish five graduate nurses each
week, out Of the number asked from
this state.
To meet this demand, the Red
Cross has started a brisk drive to en-
roll every available trained nurse In
the country for home and foreign
service. The surgeon general has an
nounced that this state is expected
to furnish 1000 graduate nurses each
week, until further notice." This
means that every nook and corner
will have to be searched for trained
nurses who are eligible, and that peo-
pie will have to extend their under
standing of the word conservation"
They will not only have to conserve
on food, and wooden clothing, and
some OF the other things that we have
been asked to use sparingly, but to
the list they will have to add trained
nurses. 1t will behoove every ,person
to adopt strenuous measures toward
keeping we'll, because there will be
difficulty in securing the services OF
a trained nurse, and people who are
only a little i'll, and have heretofore
been in the habit of engaging a train
ed nurse during the periods Of slight
illness, will be, the first ones to learn
the broader meaning Of that word
Conservation" It will be absolute
ly necessary to conserve on the T
vices Of graduate nurses, in order to
release these women for military SER
vice. and the few who do remain on
S,,fxr tn r}1ys1ior h1urifa1S will he
needed for the people who are very
i'll. =
The state Red Cross organization,
under the direction Of the executive
secretary. Harry Curran Wilbur, has
begun-a campaign to secure the
names of every graduate nurse in the
state, the enrolment Of every nurse
willing to go into service, and a rec
ord Of the ason why any nurse
cannot now enroll.
At the same time an educational
campaign is under way, to induce
physicians and hospitals to cut their
work can De carried on. Complete
reorganization Is to be urged wher-
ever necessary.
The public must be educated not to
employ nurses in private homes. Sick
people. needing a nurses care, mus
be sent to hospitals, and hospital pa.
tients who do not need 1t must be
willing to do without a special nurse
The third feature Of the education
al campaign Is to induce nurses who
have married or adopted some other
profession to go into the hospitals ir
this country. thus releasing many
nurses for foreign service.

HELPFUL "TIP"
ON PRESERVING

Housekeepers who are busy at this
time making jams, jellies and pre-
serves will probably be grateful for
this tip from the U. s. department
Of agriculture:
""Do. not use galvanized utensils in
making preserves, jellies or fruit juic-
es. Some of the zinc with which the
vessels are galvanized may be chang
ed to salts of zinc, which will give
taste and render it unsuitable for HUI
man use. Moreover. the dissolving OF
this zinc coating tends to ruin the con-
tainer. The use of galvanized utensils
for boiling down fruit juice is espe-
cfally risky ,

Home Service.

Home service sections Of the Amer
lean Red Cross m organized with
just one purpose-to see that all
families OF soldiers and sailors are
maintained in comfort and peace Of
mind, while the men are in service.
Any soldier or sailor who knows or
fears that his family is in trouble
should appeal at once to Home Ser
vice. He should go at once to the
Home Service man attached tt his
division here or abroad, or write to
his family to take their troubles to
the Red Cross Home Service section
in their home town. y
Men in service know they, will be
taken ARE Of when wounded or sick;
they should know also that the Home
Service workers of the Red Cross are
willing to relieve them of worry con-
corning their families. so far as that
is possible.
Relations between Home Service
workers and families are as confiden-
|tialsias those between doctors and
their patients. Home service means
sympathy. advice, expert information
about laws and regulations, medical
care, spiritual comfort nj every
thing which can be given by real
friends to compensate the family for
the absence OF the man in service.

Big Allotment.

In, the July shipment which the
Grand Forks county chapter made to
they division headquarters, there was
a shortage in the number Of garments
that. --had been asked. The country
district did very we'll in meeting it's
allotment, but the city circles and
workers apparently were mot so act
i've, and as a consequence there is a
larger amount OF. work Is be done
during - this month, since each
months allotment has to be met.
Last month the, city workers were
short on their allotments: SO pajam-
as, 90f helpless 81 shirts, ~ mems
day shirts, So boys suits, 25 pinafores
and 40 shirts. AS a result Of this the
city workers will have to make dur
ing the present months 253 pajannas,
$40 helpless ase shirts, 157 mems
day shirts, 200 boys suits, 1875 pima
fores and 103 shirts.
Circles and groups cannot be ex-
pected to make all Of these, so the
chapter -is appealing very strongly
for individual workers. The gar
ments may be taken home for MAX
ing. They are cut at the chapter
rooms and given out with instruc-
tions for making, n any individual
may take one Or more Of the gar
ments. In this way, a months allot-
ment may be easily MET without too
much work falling or any individual
shoulders.
The chapter rooms in the basement
of the First National Bank building
are open every week day, except Sat
urday, between 8 and S o'clock. On
Saturday the rooms are open only
during the morning closing prompt
lily at IL o'clock. Materials and In

the United States Bureau of Educa-
ton, who he's just returned to WASH

.The Eskimos' contributions repre-
sent real sacrifice" continued Mr..

purchase Of a emuch-needed sawmill
and had accumulated $3.50, donated
500 of its scanty hoard. and then
procured further contributions rs
cents apiece by the children Of the

BY selling furs. cutting ivory, and
longshoring for the ships that visit
their isolated home.
Indian villages have +, collected as
much as $500 for the Red Cross.
Hoonah. Metlakatla, Kake. Hyda-
burg, Klawock, and Klukwan have
each raised between $3.50 and $500.
The native women have proved pro-
ficient in Red Cross classes; homo
nursing, surgical dressings. and
knitting they have done extremely
well. There is no hyphen in the In
dams Americanism.
Teachers in the Alaskan schools
have done yeoman service in organ
izing the school children into junior

Gross chapters. Miss Isabel Gilman,
teacher Of the school at Juneau, has
been especially successful; her
classes have done remarkable work."

HELP THE ALLIES;
EAT MORE POTATOES
Consuming of Tubers in Large
Quantity Is a War
Measure.

Belgium and Italy are starving;
France and England, standing off the
Germans with blood. are crying TO
America for bread. Every potato eaten
means that much more wheat which
can be shipped overseas to feed those
who have given all except life to stop
the invader.
1t Is as much a war measure to
eat potatoes at this time as it is to
manufacture shells or give your money
for the use of the government" SAYS
Charles Hebberd food administrator
for Washington,
I'VE are short of wheat; we have
great quantities of potatoes. Potatoes
are not such good travellers as wheat.
consequently we must eat the former
and send the wheat on the long, dan
gerous journey to the war zone, where
1t will be received as necessary factor
of success.
washington has a great surplus
crop OF potatoes, large part of which
will be wasted if not consumed in the
next few weeks"

A VALUABLE SERVICE

The all-Northwest power farming
demonstration has proved a tremen-
dous success from both the stand
point of attendance and of service
rendered. The fact that thousands
OF farmers from several states at
tended the demonstration proved
that the question of substituting ma
chinery for horses is a live one in
their minds. A valuable service was
rendered to these farmers by afford
ing them an opportunity to make up
their minds as to the merits of the
different makes of tractors by see
ing them in actual operation, under
varied conditions, instead of by lis
tenlng to the claims of rival agents.
The tests given proved what the
tractors can not do as well as what
they can do.
Pullman and the State College
will benefit by the demonstration as
well as the farmers. 1t brought a
great many strangers here who left
considerable money and took away
with them favorable impressions of
the beauty and progressiveness of the
city. These visitors also had an op-
portunity to visit the State College
and learn by inspection what a great
and useful institution it is.
By arranging the demonstration
the State College and cham Der of
commerce not only rendered a splen-
did service to the farmers, but Sc
cured some very valuable advertis-
ing for themselves. The power
farming demonstration should be
made, an annual event in this COM
munity.

Nobody can understand how ii
happens that when the great war be-
gan, in 1914, Prince Lichnowsky
was the prime minister to Great
Britain from Germany. He was APP

is a man of wealth, an artist and

and quite different in almost every
way from the men who have occu-

could to bring about an understand

One of the most valuable services
the Pullman schools are rendering is
the fostering of patriotism among
the pupils and the encouraging OF
self-sacrifice on their part, that they
may give of their time and money tC
the support of war work. The splen-
did response made by boys and girls
in buying Liberty Bonds and thrift
stamps and in contributing work
and money to the Red Cross and
other war needs proves the patriotic
influence of the teachers.
