corps is about $500. Increasing the
enrolment by nearly 1000 per cent in
a year is the task confronting the
corps.
Daily numbers of nurses are being
called for to meet immediate needs
in army hospitals in the United States
and for duty overseas. The pres
ent rate of enrolment does not meet
the demands. Hospitals at National
Guard and National army camps still
need 371 nurses to bring the quotas of
all up to the minimum considered
necessary each.
In order to get the enrollments up
to the needed number some of the re-
quirements heretofore imposed are be-
ing waived. According to estimates of
the nursing committee of the general
medical board of the council of nation
al defense, there are between $4,000
and 10000 registered nurses in the
country and about 100000 other gradu-
ate and practical nurses
Just as soon as immediate needs of
cantOnment hospitals have been cared
for a reserve of 100 nurses will be or
ganiZed for emergency service in the
United States. Lakewood hotel, Lake
wood, N. J., has been leased by the
government for use as a general hospi-
tai for the army and provisions will
be made for housing the reserve nurs-
es there. This hotel has not yet been
turned over to the war department,
but Will be in q week or so. The nee
essary alterations will be made as soon
as practicable and the 100 nurses for
the reserve will be needed in addition
to the permanent nursing staff of the
hospital.

Red Cross Trains Women for

Series Of Institutes In Home Science

Washington.-Scient training and
efficient service are the keynotes of
the civilian relief work which has just
been inaugurated throughout the coun-
try by the American Red Cross.
Contrary to The popular belief that
most of the Red Cross is being done by
unframed volunteer workers, the lat
est venture of the organization is char
acterized by a series of institutes in
home science for the purpose of train
ing women to do social service work
among the families of our fighting men.
Financial aid for the families of
our soldiers and sailors is only a small
part of the problem which these fam

a six weeks course which follows a

Particular emphasis is placed by
Mrs. Ufford upon the value of the
work outlined in the syllabus, not only
to relieve the stress of war difficulties,
but to meet the needs of reconstruc-

BIG LEAGUE LEADERS SEE.
SMALL HOPE FOR BASEBALL

NEW YORK, Oct. 8. - Major
league baseball magnates face a
knotty problem at the coming an
nual meetings when they will be
called upon to decide the status of
the player al present under con-
tract or reserve. Very few of the
club hold the opinion, APP
parently, that it will be possible to
resume league operations next
spring. If such proves to be the
case, and there are few indications
to the contrary, it would appear
that the majority of players who
figured in the 1918 pennant races
will not receive contracts during he
early months of next year.
According to the present system,
it is mandatory upon the clubs to
their options or reserve
clause upon players not later than
Jan. l of each year and to follow
this action by mailing contracts to
the players not later than Feb. l..

acting for the Detroit Trust COM
pany, filed a complaint asking for
the foreclosure of a mortgage on
the Nevada-Utah Sugar company
at Fallon. The suit to fsreclose is
the beginning of the end of an in
dustry that promised much for west
ern Nevada and which at the start
promised success. Last season the
farmers refused to enter into CON
tracts with the sugar company, ow-
ing to scarcity of labor and unwil-

INFLUENZA
REACHES RENO;
3 CASES

Gazette: Four Eases of Spanish
influenza, three in Reno and one in
Sparks, were reported today by
County Health officer ]. A. Ascher
of Sparks, who made an official re-
port to DR.. S, l.. Lee, state health
officer. All were reported by the
physician today, although 1t is
thought that at least two OF them
are several days old. These are of
travelling men who recently came
from the east, where it is supposed
they contracted the disease. A di-
agnosis was made this afternoon by
City Physician Mcintyre and one of
the men from the state hygienic
laboratory to verify the diagnosis
of the attending physicians.
DR.. Ascher said the closing of all
places of amusement, schools,
churches and other places where
people congregate would probably
take place in a very few days.
