Yesterday afternoon, before the call
for nurses was given publicity, five young
ladies Of Morgan City offered their serv-
ices. Dr. c. G. "a Gravelles and Mrs.
N. 7. Palmer were deeply touched with
this immediate demonstration Of Morgan
City spirit and predicted that no matter
what happened this sort of spirit would
pull the city through.
The young ladies. who are now in
active service as volunteer nurses and
have been assigned to eases, reported
to The Review this morning, are
Misses Olivia Giroir, Esther Drackett,
Pearl Ainsworth, Mrs. Rebecca Aucoin
and Miss Gertrude Thomas. The last
named is a colored woman and has had

Mrs. Palmer reports that two of the
cases, one in Morgan City and one in
Berwick. are pitiful and should convince
the most skeptieal Of the need for help.
The Morgan City case consists Of faith
er and mother and two children, all Of
them sick in bed. When Mrs. Palmer
visited them last night they were utterly
unable to assist themselves in any way.
A few more days or possibly hours with
out nursing attention would probably
bring fatal results. Two Of the young
ladies have been assigned to this home.
The case in Berwick concerns father,
mother and five children, all Of whom are
stricken. They are absolutely help
less, Mrs. Palmer stated. They now have
a chance for recovery due TO the simple |
attention which will be given them bv the
two volunteers from the Morgan City i
branch
"All of the young ladies who have
thus far offered themselves have been
said Mrs. Palmer. "There
will likely be more cases just as heart
rending and Just as unbelievable as the
two I have reported. It is inconceivable
that they will have to suffer and possibly
die for lack Of attention. IT is essential

Of the committee may call volunteers for

Volunteers should send in their names

committee at the earliest possible mo-

that new cases continued to be reported

Persuasion Is Tried.
This committee consists of three men
Of good physique able to take care Of
themselves no matter in how strenuous
a position they would be placed, even
II bcscgcd bv German spies. The work
of these three men who style themselves
peaccmakcrs Tor the time being, is to
call at each disloyal address turned in
and obtain confirmation Of the first
report on dlSloyalty submitted. II
there is confirmation the three men
adopt oral methods Of conversion to
try TO change the pro-Gcrman and in
different citlcn's point Of view so that
what he says and his example will no
longer be a menace to this community
The members ot the committee, whose
chairman is John Boardman report
that in some instances the expressed
opinions and uttcranccs of the disloyal
suspect have been framed, either by
purpose beforehand or otherwise, so that
50 far as the law is concerned no legal
action can be started against them In
q case like this nothing remains but for
the committee 10 withdraw, and, after
consultation, apply some of the meth
DDS which are secretly effective
and which, when encountered by the
d,sloyalst, bring him to frame Of
, mind when he either decides TO inilict
his presence on some other community
or, if remaining in the city, to keep
his mouth closed.
