Many questions have been asked
here about the effect of the bill pend
ing in Congress to ratify the treaty
with Canada about shooting of GER
tain birds. If it goes through there
will be no more reed bird shooting.
Some protests have been made on
the matter, especially from eastern
counties where the birds furnish
some fine sport. The central coun-
ties are not so much interested, al
though certain other birds will be
affected.

The enrolment card will indicate
two classes of egistrants--P
and Deferred. The Preferred class
will be those who are ready to accept
assignm ent to whatever Army Or Civ
ilian hospital the Governm ent directs
them. although they may state what
training school they prefer to be sent
to. Those who register in the Pre-
ferred class will be assigned first, and
all possible consideration will be Civ
Ell to their preference as stated. The
Deferred class is composed of those
who limit their pledge of service
that is, who will not engage to go ex-
cept to certain hospitals. This class
is intended largely for those who, for
family reasons cannot accept training
at a, distance from their homes. Those
who register in the Deferred class will
be assigned only after the Preferred
class is exhausted.
The Government relies on the pa
triotism of those who enroll to fill out
preferred cards If they possibly can,
thus volunteering to go where they
are most needed.
Nobody will be assigned TO any
schools whose COnOlClOnS OF framing
are not. approved by the State Board
of Nurse examiners.
At present every woman who COM
pletes 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 ltv-
ing in one of the noblest professions
open to women. It should be re-
membered, Furthermore, that her USE
fulness will begin not when she grad
yates from the training school but as
soon as she enters 1t. Practical nurs-
ing work is a part of the work of
every training school and the student.

learning to serve but serving her
