one back to the good old days when
peculiarly English terms were com

licensed victualer," batting" and
other terms that now excite the cur

an" means a woman of good birth or
breeding. In this country we can
easily pass the matter of birth, for,
according to Thomas Jefferson and
his friends, the French philosophers,
all men, and presumably all women,
are born free and equal. Surely
there is no better opportunity for
showing good breeding than when the
telephone is taken in hand.
Pleasant telephone voces are by NO

NURSES CAMPAIGN

The registrants in the campaign for
the Student Nurses Reserve number

at the fact that this city went over

this number that will not be accepted.

It begins to look as if every availa-

sued from Washington that 1000
nurses must go forward towards the

the qualifications ase to age and train
