NOT AFTER MONEY.

Indians of Robson Not Making Ap-
peal to Government For Financial
Aid-Want Credit For What They
Are Doing to Help Win the War
Want to Be Classified as Indians. i.
as Indians.
To the Editar of The Robesonian:
l have made several trips to Wash
ington, D. c., during the last twelve
months, and from what ! am able to
learn my motives have been greatly
misunderstood. l have been asked re-
peatedly, when are you going to get
the money for the Robeson county In
d:ans?" In explanation of the above
question l am writing this article.
In the first place l want to say
that the Indians of Robeson county
are making no efforts at this time to
secure an appropriation for any pur-
pose for themselves from the Federal
Government. We do not think that
this is the proper time to ask our gov
ernment for any financial assistance.
The principal thing we are working
for, and I might say the only thing
that we are working for at this time,
is to get credit for what we, as a race
Of people, are doing to help our great
country win the war and make the
world safe for Democracy"
We want our boys who are going
forth to war to be classified and known
as the Indians Of Robson county,
North Carolina, so that when they re-
turn to US, if they return, and when
the war is over, We may have the
glory, honor and praise, if any there
be, for the work they have done. We
are making our efforts in this direc-
ton in no secret manner, but frank
and above board. We have already
appealed to the proper authorities in
Washington, D. c., and we intend
taking the matter up with our State
officials at an early date and we will
continue to press our claims until
we have been heard and we have re-
ceived what we are justly entitled to.
Numbers Of our bravest and best
young men have gone, or will go, to
France to make the supreme sacri-
flee; we at home are doing all that
we can in the way of buying Liberty
Bonds, War Savings Stamps, contri =
uting to the Red Cross, the w. M.
C. A., etc., and we feel that we
should have such classification that
will entitle US, and give US, full credit
for what the Indians of Robson coun-
ty accomplish during the trying times
ahead Of US.
Very truly yours,

Nobody will be assigned to any
schools whose conditions of training
are rot approved by the State Board
of Nurse Examiners.
Terms Of training-The term Of
training varies from two to three
years, according to the requirements
Of the particular school to which the
student nurse may be sent. No course
takes less than two years nor more
than three.
What the training course prepares
for.-At present every woman who
completes satisfactorily her training
in any accredited school is eligible
for service as an Army nurse at the
front and stands a chance Of being
assigned to duty abroad. At the
same time she will be qualified to earn
her living in one Of the noblest pr -
fessions open TO women. 1t should be
remembered, furthermore that her
usefulness will begin not when she
graduates from the training school
but as soon as she enters it. Practical
nursing work is 2 part of the work cf
every training school, and the student
rurse is cot only learning to serve
but serving her country from the out
set.
Finances.-The student nurse gets
her board, lodging, and tuition free
at practically every training school,
and in most cases receives small re-
rluneration to cover the cost Of books
and uniforms. After graduation sh'=
has an earning capacity of from 800
to $500 a month. Private-duty nurses
now receive an average of from SOD
to S12O a month together with board
while on duty; institutions nurses
from $50 to $3.50 a month together
with board, lodging, and laundry; and
public7health nurses from 500 to
$3.50 a month without maintenance.
There is no danger Of the earning ca
pacity of nurses being lowered aft..
the war ends on account of the great
number who will then be qualified for
the profession; the country will need
all the nurses that can be trained, not
only during the war but after it, -s
pecially for reconstruction work. Even
if the war ends within three years,
every student nurse Will De aOle t.
complete her training and will be
needed.
An honorable service-Ever Stree
the days Of Florence Nightingale the
nursing profession has been one Of
especial honor. 1t was never so hon
orable as it is today. The Army
needs every nurse it can get to keep
up with the draft" The United
States Student Nurse Reserve is the
equivalent for women of the great
National army training camps for SOL
diers. The Government will rely up
On the student nurses to fight dis
eases at nome, to care fot those injur-
ed and disabled in our hazardous wal
industries, and to make themselves
ready to serve when the time comes
as fully trained nurses, either abroad
or at home. Let US show that We
know how to answer the Government
call to the women of the country.
All young ladies who will enroll in
this grand cause are asked to send
their name and address to Mrs. L. T.
Townsend, chairman woman's commit
tee council of national defense Of
Robson county.
