War Work for Young Women

War work for Young women
Young women of Marion county,
| this is a call to you for definite war
work.
The war is creating an unprece-
denied demand for trained nurses.
Only those who have taken the full
training course are eligible for serv-
| ice with our forces overseas. These
nurses are being drawn largely from
our hospitals at home. Their places
| must be filled by student nurses en-
rolled for the full training course of
from two to three years. Every
young woman who enrolls in the u.
S. Student Nurse Reserve is releas-
| ing nurse for service at the front
and swelling the home army which
| we must rely on to act as our second
| line of hospital defense. Upon the
health of the American people will
| depend the spirit of their fighting
| forces.
Nightingale the nursing profession
has been one of special honor. 1t was
never SO honorable as it is today. The
army needs every nurse it can get to
| keep up with the draft" The United
States Student Nurse Reserve is the
equivalent for women of the great
national army training camps for
soldiers. The government will rely
upon the student nurses to fight dis
ease at home. to care for those in
jured and disabled in our hazardous
war industries, and to make them
selves ready to serve when the time
comes as fully trained nurses, either
abroad or at home. Let US show that
we know how to answer the govern
ment's call to the women of the
country.
