SPECIAL FUND AVAILABLE FOR
 SCHOLARSHIPS
Will Enable Registered Nurses to Take 4 Months
 Post Graduate Course.

Hartford, Nov. 3O.---An visiting and accredited hospitals in Connecti- cut are soon to be notified by the wo- mems division, Connecticut State | Council of Defense. that a special fund of $1,9O3 is available for scholarships for registered nurses to enable them to take a four months post graduate course in public health nursing. The selection of nurses to whom the schol- arships wifi be awarded will be made by the child welfare department of the Connecticut Defense Council, which has been authorized to spend 1 the money.
 The fund to be thus expended was subscribed in Connecticut for child welfare work. Miss Margaret K. Stack, field director of the child well fare department, said that in view of this fact it seemed best to award the scholarships on the condition that the first year of the nurses professional work after her postgraduate course would be done in Connecticut in one of the many towns that are waiting for trained public health nurses before starting their work.
 The need Of more trained public health nurses has been especially felt in Connecticut since the child welfare campaign by the womans division, Defense Council, and since the recent influenza epidemic.
 "F'orty-tWto of the 16S towns in the state now have public nursing organ izations, and seven more are consid- Miss Stack said. She added that there were several reasons why every town should have public health nurs- ing. Some of these reasons was to re- duce the number of infant deaths by giving prenatal care and instructions to mothers, making available good nursing and medical care at time o1 confinement, establishing milk sta Itions and child welfare conferences and supplying skilled attention 1o1 young children during their first dan gerous years.
 Other reasons demanding public health nursing were to assure nursing care to 75 per cent. of the sick who cannot have full time private nurses to use every human means for con- trolling epidemics and to supervise the tuberculosis problem in the commu. nifty.
 Tt is obvious that there will be 2 place for every nurse who takes the 1our months course, said Miss Stack

ANTI-SUFFRACE LEADERS SCORE
 SUFFRAGE LEADER FOR SPEECH

The Connecticut State Association OPPOSED to Woman Suffrage asks every woman of the State if she will TACITLY ACCEPT AND SUBMIT TO THE FOLLOWING?
 "If the women of this war had had the status of the women in the days of the Civil War 1t would have ended quickly and German militarism would have triumphed. What the women have done at home has made it possi- ble for the men to keep up the war they have said so."-Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt at a meeting at the Hotel McAlpin, N. Y. City, Nov. 1th, 1918.
 Is this contemptuos slur on the par allel sacrifices and untold service of the women, not only of the Civil War, but women of the same "status'' in the Revolutionary War generations before women to whose status Is directly traceable the willingness and the abil- ity of men to fight this war-to go un- challenged and unpunished? Do YOU agree with and accept this estimate of AMERICAN WOMEN? Never has there been such gigantic war machine for both MEN AND WOMEN. But, measuring the contribution demanded INCLUDING WITH THE PURELY PATRIOTIC all the picturesque poIit- ical and paid activities which this world has opened up to the women of America-IS IT TO BE CONCED- ED FOR ONE MOMENT that our women's sacrifices came within any possibility of comparison with the heart breaking struggle, steadfastness and service of American women of the wars that were the foundation of the success of this world war? The women of today have gone into munitions fac tories and done valiant service-at big wages, good food and good housing. WOMEN OF '69
 The women of '61 and '76 melted their own precious pewter for the bull lets they made, under starving condi- tions, without money and without price The women of today donned "cork- 1 ing uniforms and were on group call night and day in canteens, Red Cross rooms and Motors. Women of the 1 Civil War-many in isolated sections | tore up their own linen and scraped the lint for bandages. covering theil emaciated bodies and those of the aged and children with clothing made by their hands from meal sacks and cof- | fee bags.

CARE OF EYES.

If one is obliged to use the eyes great deal one should be very careful of the light you use. It should fall over the left shoulder, never full in the face or eyes. At night, before retiring to use the eyes, wet soft cloth with hot water. Lay it softly on the eyes and lie down for ten minutes. Then battle the eyes with cold water.
 Nothing is quite so bad or quite so hard on the eyes as to have the light directly facing them and an electric bulb swinging in front of the sight is the worst possible thing.
 The electric needle is the only sat- isfactory way to shape the eyebrows. A slender face can wear a narrower eyebrow. In every case they must be arched more or less and all of the
 uneven hairs removed. If the eye | brows seem little too thin try using for month a little vaseline on them. Brush it in very carefully just where | you wish the broWs to grow. i A little vaseline is good to rub into 1 the scalp once month. Rut 1t with 1 the tips of the fingers and part the hair while doing so. It should be well rubbed in until not a bit of the | grease is noticed.

Women trudged miles after dark to take their soldiers the last bit of meat or bread, and themselves drank tea of dried leaves and coffee of burnt beans, with whatever remnants of food they could get together. Have, the men of the South and North forgotten this? These women were not featured as ''farmerettes," but they took care of the mules they drove in the fields and hitched themselves to the wood they brought in from the wood lots to keep the "home fires burning" What they could not SOW, nor make, nor reap, they did without They nursed the sick and dying under very different conditions from those of expertly put up medical supplies and surgeons near at hand; and with it all they worked for and fed and clothed and educated the children who now ''rise up and call them blessed" When the war was over and men came home broken in body and spirit, these were not the women of status to talk about sup planting them wherever possible, of | wrenching from them any opportunity of getting back their own that might still be theirs. Instead, the women | ON J S'hSA NAe1y W lle1l IS I1IS SldluS u 1 day, made the country and conserved the womanhood that men found worth fighting for today.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS

To keep a white woolen sweater from shrinking: Wash in Iukewarm water with a heaping tablespoonful of saleratus and rinse in the saleratus water.
 For chapped hands use borax water. A teaspoonful of borax in basin of luke warm water is healing.
 If an ink spot is dipped at once in cold water and the water changed several times, it will disappear en- tirely. Simple and always at hand.
 A piece of waxed paper placed un- der the centrepiece on table will prevent the linen adhering to the pol ished wood in hot weather, as well as prevent stain from cold water in case of an over-filled vase or rose bowel.

THERE are many women whose com
 plexions never give the impression
 of freshness and clearness. They wash their faces diligently with soap and water. sometimes even making them shine with their effort, and still their complexions appear grayish.
 Are you sure your face is clean? Apol- ogies may seem in order for such a question, but not only the surface, but also the pores of the skin should be thoroughly cleansed. Lack of attention to this fact is what produces those un- slightly blacl1heads.
 Improper washing of the face is q common enough fault, doubtless due to the habit of axes past, when sanitation and personal hygiene such as we prac- tise today were unknown. For instance, the face is more apt to be thoroughly washed in the morning and carelessly
