Homesickness and the Nurse

The American boys need American
Nurses. Only the kindred spirit
aroused by a common language can
bridge the 5000 odd miles between
France and the Statue of Liberty.
The American Red Cross Nurse
r.cans Home and Mother to the
wounded soldier, lying on his army
cot in base hospital in France.
He can talk to her. She can under
stand his slang and him.
Her training gives her the oppor-
tlnity; her womans tenderness and
devotion the means of helping to
keep up the morale of the Army and
Navy, and bring America closer to
the boys fighting and dying in
France.

Storrow Thinks Order
Restricting Gasoline
Will Not Be Necessary

Boston. Aug 29.--No order restricting
the use of automobiles is likely to prove
necessary if everyone will do his share
of gasoline conservation as recently re-
quested by the United States fuel adj
minstration, James J. Storrow. New
England fuel administrator. said tonight
Every man is the keeper of his own
conscience said Mr.. storrow. Give
Uncle Sam the gasoline he wants and
keep giving him gasoline until he says
he has enough to go on without any
anxiety in his job OF beating the Ger
mans and then bringing our boys home.
Probably no definite order restricting
the use OF automobile will prove neces-
sary if each Of US will take hold in good
part and do his share
