Has War Experience.

Mrs. Rinehart has had considerable war experience. During the first year of the war she went abroad for a weekly publication of national cir culation and was fortunate, at q time when correspondents were forbidden in spending five weeks with the Bel gian army at the front.
 She crossed No Mans Land spent several days at General Foch's head quarters and also visited French and British trenches. But she has no de- sire to repeat these experiences as such.
 'T want to work, she resumed, and I believe that every trained wo- man in the country should work, too Not long ago a boy wrote me from hospital in France. He had been wounded three times and was about to go back again to the trenches.
 T am just going to keep on, he wrote. And perhaps out of all this wretchedness and struggle, I shall gain some honorable advancement for my soul. He was killed two weeks later. So it seems to me that the wo- man who can, should gain this hon. orable advancement for her soul. We cannot gain it through fighting. We must gain it through service.''
 In addition to enrolling nurses for assignment as needed to the Army and Navy Nurse corps for military service, the American Red Cross through all it's chapters is making a special effort to encourage every nurse who, because of marriage or other reasons, has given up her profession to enroll as a home defense nurse for part time service at least in public health nursing or in hospitals clin- ics and dispensaries.
