al dispatches to the French embassy
In Washington pay tribute to the val
or of the American soldiers. in the
great counter offensive On the French
front.
"An the newspapers emphasize the
valor and dash Of the American
troops. who have played such glori-
GUS role in these last combats." the
dispatches say.
For instance, the Gaulois OF July
20. says:
AT the front the dash Of the Ameri-
can soldiers, their desire to be In
structed in the art OF warfare. their
disdain of death compel the admira-
tion Of their new comrades. With
one bound they have equalled the he
roism OF the troops that have been
hardened by long terms OF combat"

EMERGENCY NURSE SERVICE
Women Asked to Go Into Training
for Reserve Line.


An appeal for $4,000 women to en-
roll in the United States student
nurse reserve to hold themselves In
readiness for service has just been
issued by the women's committe OF
the Council OF National Defense
Only those nurses who have taken
the full training course are eligible
for service with our forces abroad,
and as these nurses are being drawn
from our hospitals at home. their
places must be filled by students en-
rolling for the full training course OF
from two to three years. Thus. the
appeal points out, every young wom-
an who enrolls in the United States
student nurse reserve Is releasing a
nurse for service at the front and
swelling the home army which must
be relied upon as the nations second
line Of hospital defense. The call Is
for women between the ages Of Is
and IS years Of age.
Qualiflcations-Intel respon-
sible women Of good education and
sound health are wanted-the pick
of the country. A college education
Is valuable asset, and many hospi-
tals viii give credit for IL Credit

tifc equipment or for preliminary
training in nursing. such as that
given in special courses now being
given by various colleges and schools
Some Of the training schools do not
even require a full high school edu-
cation.
Observation-Disclosures will be given
an opportunity TO enroll in the U. :.
student nurse reserve in any one
Of the following ways:
First.-As engaging TO hold them
selves in readiness until April l, 1919.
TO accept assignments TO nurses
training schools. These women will
be sent to the schools as fast as va
cancies occur. Those of superior
qualifications will be given prefer
ence and it is possible that not every
one who enrolls will be accepted.
Second.-As desiring to become
candidates for the army nursing
schools recently established 10y au-
thority of the war department, with
branch schools in selected military
hospitals.
Third-As engaging 20 hold them
selves in readiness until April /. 1919,
to accept assignments TO either IL
civilian training school or the army
nursing school. Those who so en-
roll will he called when the first need
arises. The government is ho?cful
that majority of those who enroll
will thus put down their names for
either service.
There are 1879 nurses training
schools in this country. and their
need is as great and imperative as
that of the army school OF nursing,
so that those who enroll for these
schools will be assigned as soon as
vacancies occur.
The enrolment card will indicate
two classes of Observation-Disclosures
and deferred.
The preferred class will be those
who are ready to accept assignments
to whatever hospital the government
directs them. although they may state
what training school they prefer TO hc
sent to. Those who register In the
preferred class will he assigned first
and all possible consideration Will hc
given to their preference as stated.
The deferred class will be composed
of those who limit their pledge OF ser
vice to certain hospitals. This class
is intended largely for those who for
family reasons cannot accept training
at n distance from their homes. They
will be assigned only after the pre-
fcrred class Is exhausted.
The term of training varies from
two TO three years. according to the
requirements OF the particular school
to which the student nurse may bc
sent, and every woman who completes
her training in any accredited school
is eligible for service as an army
nurse nj the front and stands a
chance of being assigned to duty
abroad. Student nurses get their
board, lodging and tuition free at
practically every training school, and
in most cases receive u small remu-
neration to cover tne cost OF books
and uniforms. After graduation they
have an earning capacity OF from
500 to $500 a month.
The appeal emphasizes the fact that
~ l. ,,E, h., ,i,,.r s.n
pacity OF nurses being lowered after
the war ends because Of the great
number who will then be qualified for
the profession, for the country will
need all the nurses that can bc
trained for reconstruction work.
