TRAINED NURSES NEEDED

There Is demand Tor trained
nurses TO assist in the care OF the
WOUNDED and SICK men oil the United
States army ana navy and to meet IL
in idaho as well as over the country
the Council oil National Defense
has issued the following TO the
several state councils OF defense in
ciua1ng that OF this state:
The committee on nursing OF
the general medical board OF the
Council OF National defense asks
your cooperation IN meeting the
nursing problems which have arisen
because OF the war.
The object OF the committee on
nursing IL 10 insure sufficient and
Adequately trained supply OF nurses.
both Tor military and civilian pur-
poses and both Tor immediate needs
and for the demands OF long war.
TO accomplish this purpose, the
committee investigates the supply OF
nurses which is ayailible at present
and prospectiyely, and recommends
policies regarding the training and
use OF nurses. The committee acts
in close touch with all branches OF
the national government which
have to do with nursing matters
Il especially army and navy nurse
corps and the American Red Cross,
the latter now being the recruiting
agency for all nurses entering fed
eral service OF any kind, and Its
policies have their Endorsement.
THE state councils OF defense can
help in two directions: "a On the
positive side, by encouraging hos
pitfalls to increase facilities for the
thorough training OF nurses and by
stim ulating women to take advant-
age OF these; CD on the negative
side, by discouraging make-shift
schemes OF training by short-term
hospital courses, which are at pre-
sent unnecessary and likely to re-
suit in harm. The second OF these
lines OF assistance is as important
as the first; the two can scarcely be
separated and can be best carried ON
together.
"(I The committee on nursing
points out that the fully trained
nurse is the crucial factor in
Americas wartime nursing program
only fully trained nurses are being
taken at present by the Surgeon
General for military service; such
nurses must also continue to meet
the serious needs OF the civilian
population. The committee finds
that there is no unusual or serious
shortage OF nurses at present. A
long view Of nursing needs can and
should be taken. Strenuous efforts
must be made now to insure 2 con-
tinuous and increased supply or
thoroughly trained nurses In the
future.

Mrs. Owenby Gained 12 Pounds on Tanlac and Her Health Has Been

"Ever since 1 was eleven years old until after 1 started taking Tanlac, recently, I've suffered misery with my stomach" said Mrs. Kate Oowenby well-known Chattanooga, Tennessee woman, living at 121 Vine street, re- gently.
 "Yes. sir, for twenty-two long years 1 never knew what it was to be able to eat what l wanted without terrible sufefring afterward,' she continued. "I suffered with pains between my shoulders and my stomach just felt like there was a hot brick in 1t. It would get all bloated up from gas that formed, and I woudl choke and smother so I could hardly get my breath. was so nervous that often l couldn't lay in bed, but would get up and walk the floor for hours at the time.
 "I had heard so much about the wonderful relief Tanlac was bringing sufefring people that I decided to try it, and it's the honest truth, after talk ing five bottles I haven't 9 sign of trouble I eat anything I want and nev never have any pains or even feel uncomfortable. The nervousness is all gone and I sleep sound all night long, and get up in the morning feeling fine and full of energy.

MONEY AND FOOD WANTED
Dollars Are Only Bullets That Never Miss Mark, He Says in Urg-
 ing Vigorous Lean Campaign.
By Dr. Cosmo Gordon Lang, The Archbishop of York and Prinate of England.

2 Come to England and France quickly with money, ships and food. There is ter rible strain upon my country men in the trenches. We are not whining and asking for sympathy, but you will be cheering us to new hope, if we know that all the power and resources of your country will be given to the future of civil ization.
 "You cannot send as many men as you wish. but you can send other things. Send money. Where men cannot go, money can The ocean cannot stop it. Your dollars are the only bullets that will never miss their mark. You are go- ing to have a great Liberty Loan soon. Put all the vigor into it that you can. Don't de- lay. We are asking you as brothers and partners, to come and help us. Every man, wom- an and child can help in this fight to free the world from the menace of German domina- tion.
 we have to settle whether the spirit of irresponsible au- tocracy or the spirit of free dom is to prevail among the nations of the world. So vast and fundamental an issue nat urally draws all the free na- tions of the world together. It must be settled now and for ever, cost what it may. The world must decide whether it will submit to the domination of a spirit which, if it were to prevail, would plunge the na- tions of the world into long, restless career of military rival ry. On such an issue there can be no such thing as compro- mise. We must be worthy of our task. We must recover for the world the atmosphere of. freedom"

Following his address at banquet given by the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce, the Archbishop of York au- thorized the above message to the American people.
 Hts Grace, the Most Rev. Dr. Cosmo Gordon Lang, Archbishop of York and Primate of England. Is the highest prelate in the Church of England save one. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Primate of All England, is the ranking archbishop of the Church of England. The office of Primate of England was created in the year A. D. 62T. This ancient and honorable office and title nas been held by many distinguished pzeiates. Dr. Lang is the ninetyeighth Archbishop of York and Primate of England. The office of Primate of All
 England was created in the year A. D. 5s7.
 The difference between the office of Primate of All England and the Fri mate of England is slight. Centuries ago, to keep peace between two arch bishops and primates. the added words "of all'' to the title of the Fri mate of England solved the problem. The Archbishop of York not only is one of the heads of the Church of England, but is member of the House of Lords. A member of the House of Lords owes no allegiance 10 any political party and therefore his actions as statesman are not curbed or influenced. He represents the gov ernment and the people with equal in terest and frequently fights the bat ties in Parliament of the laboring classes.
 Dr. Lang Is a Sootchman, the son of . Presbyterian minister, but he joined
 the Church of England early in life and while youth began to study for the ministry. He rose from the rec torship of small church when yet a young man and before he had attained the age of 50 was named Archbishop of York and Primate of England. He soon distinguished himself not only as prelate but as fearless and bril- liant statesman and champion of the people in the House of Lords.
 The Archbishop has visited many cities in the United States recently, where he delivered addresses before chambers of commerce and other civic organizations. He brings not l only message of brotherhood and ap. preciation from Great Britain. but he emphasizes the need for undivided sup. port of the government of the United
 States by the people if the war is to be won. He pleads for speeding up
 of shipbuilding. of money raising and 'ef troop mobilization. Dr. Lang makes
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1918-04-11

it clear that the people of England are in dire need of food and that the man power of the nation is waning
 A member of the Archbishop's party said the distinguished Britons were surprised and delighted with the en- thusiasm of the American people to support the war. He said Americans have come to realization of what the threat of German domination means to the world. and especially to America, He explained that many persons in Great Britain were slow to realize the necessity for shedding their blood upon the battletields of Franco to halt the Hun.

SORGHUM PLANT . i. DEPENDS UPON
 BIG PLANTERS
Richards Says Ind us tr y Cannot Start This Year
 With Present Acreage.

The question of whether or not the opening of our plant here will be de- layed year rests entirely with the large planters of this section," said ]. A. Richards, who is in charge of ar engagements for the FOrst Scott Sor- ghum- Syrup company's proposed plant here. "We have been unable so far to get the necessary acreage to war rant our opening our plant" cOntin- ued Mir Richards. "This has been due to the fact that the small farmers, whom we relied on to supply the sor- xhum, have already planted their land to other crops. We have found any number of men willing and anxious to, take up our proposition, but they had no available land this year. On the. other hand we find that number of the larger planters have land they could devote to the crop, and if they will help us out and help themselves at the same time-they can assure the new plant for Pine Bluff this year." Mr. Richards explained that the acreage of sorghum in sight so far was, still several hundred acres short of the amount that would warrant his O68luuln& OpeIduOHS. I1c pOAAtcu OuI the necessity of having comparative ly large acreage of. sorghum within a certain radius in order to save haul ing cost by establishing concentra- tion stations.
 May Make Jams and Preserves.
 Mir. Richards plans urging his com pany to include the manufacture of jams, jellies and preserves in their plans for the local plant.
 "The manufacture of such products Is closely allied with syrup making" said Mir. Richards, "and I believe it could be made great success here. We could draw upon the surrounding country for large quantities of the necessary fruits. which, unlike the sorghum. could be marketed in small quantities. In this we would have the advantage of obtaining absolutely fresh fruit, where as many of the plants now making such products ob- tain their supplies in damaged fruit from the big city markets. This would give brand if the first quality. which we would be able to place on the market quickly thru the organization already built up to market our sor- ghum products-an organization which reaches all over the country

Less than a week before he sailed for France in the service of the Y. M. C. A., Rev. Elmer T. Clark, Litt. D., former min ister of the Shaw Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and former secretary of the St. Louis Ministerial Ali ance, prepared the following prayer for the Third Liberty Loan for use on Liberty Loan Sunday, April 7th:

 "In this time of crisis and judgment. inspire us to think, act and serve together in the common cause of a victorious righteousness. Touch our souls with a high sense of patriotic sacrifice. Consecrate our means as we'll as our men.
 Bless, we beseeeh Thee, the Third Liberty Loan with the benediction of Thy benignant favor. May no act or word from us impede its sanctified will. And arouse our enthusi- asm to see it through to a most successful conclusion. Amen"
