A name to which is attached n
wealth of the romance and reputation
of traveller and writer is that of Lady
Lugard, in the British empire honors
list She was Miss Flora Shaw in for
mer days, and of her travels there are
many humorous incidents to tell. Once,
for instance, on arriving at an up
country town in South Africa, the peo-
pie wished Immediately to do her
honor. But Miss Shaw asked that she
might first be allowed to have a wash.
She had to wait little time before
water was brought to her, and then
the fish that she was to have for din
ner had already been cooked in it!

SURGEONS DEPEND ON NURSES,
-. NURSES LOOK TO Y. ". c. A.

Paris, France-When the tide of
wounded flows in, surgeons work at
lightning speed. with such trained
assistants that an outstretched hand
| receives the proper instrument, asep-
tic, and ready for instant use. The
American doctors prefer American
nurses for this work, and American
wounded are almost miraculously
improved by the presence of nurses
from their own home country.
When the endless procession OF
wounded comes in, not infrequently
these nurses have worked as long
as seventeen hours among the tor
tured men. When they go off duty,
the problem Of the Young Womens s
Christian Association secretary is
their physical and spiritual restora-
ton, that they may continue their
work for the men rather than be-
come themselves objects of medical
care.
Our secretaries labor indefatig-
ably to bring a touch OF friendliness
TO the nurses" says Miss Ethel c..
iScrbner, formerly secretary Of the
Association at the University Of Col.

angle in Paris, Our efforts to keep
them fit for their work nges all

ABSENCE OF WITNESS
 MAY BRING CONTEMPT

Failure of Mrs. Angus Mckay to ap- pear in court for examination yester- day in connection with the $1,200,0O0 will contest case may lead to her at torneys being cited for contempt of court, according to the statement made by Judge Lyman. An order was issued for the appearance of Mrs. Mckay, whose counsel admitted she was out of the state That she was not showing good faith by leaving the court juris- diction was the statement of Judge Sloan, who declared she had made the statement that she would never appear in court.
 Earl Drake, a member of the law firm of Townsend, Stockton and Drake, who with Joseph Lacey represent Mrs. Mckay, stated last evening that he wished it understood that Mrs. Mckay was in California when the court made the order for her appearance. He said she left town on Wednesday and the order was not entered until the fol- lowing day. The fact that Judge Sloan made that statement in court Monday that he would ask for the order, he did not give consideration.
