The county nurse has been of greatest service in the case of the sick soldier who was taken with in fluenza on his way to Camp Pike. Unlike that of the soldier who had the same misfortune in the summer, through her, he has had the expert nursing he needs. Before, we had no nurse.) This soldier has been very sick and the people in the com munity are assured that he is having every care and attention possible. In the shortest possible time after we were advised of his illness, the Nurse and Doctor were working together. The Home Service section of the Red Cross advised his mother and also took the matter up with Camp Pike to extend his furlough. This is only one of the many examples of what the Red Cross is doing here at home. The cases of real service of the Nurse are daily multiplying.

MOTHER HAD REASONED WELL.
Decision That Combined Strict Justice
ard knowledge of the Child
Character.

My child and my sisters two chill
dren were playing in the room next to
where my sister and I were talking.
Presently her older boy came in and
said that the others were bothering
him. He was building a railroad and
they took his things; would mother
please make them stop? To my sur
prise, she said surely she would; it
was too bad they bothered him, and
she called them in with us, and when
she had started them playing there
she quietly closed the door between the
two rooms. In a moment 1t opened,
and the young railroad builder said he
did not care about having the door
shut, he only did not want to be both
cred. But the mother answered that
she could not keep the little folks hap
py If they saw him with all the things;
the door would have to stay shut. Ev-
cry little while, for half an hour or so,
on one excuse or another, that door
came open, and just as surely a rea-
son was given why it must be kept
shut. Then the law of the Kingdom,
the Spirit in Man, worked; every one
knows what would happen. The boy
came where we were, and leaning
against his mother, had treble in his
voice as he said: "Id rather stay in
here; it's lonesome in there and L
don't care about the things"
She had not told him he was wrong,
but it was just as the inventor said:
eff you understand the case and the
law governing it, any one can tell what
will happen. Certain things always
work certain ways."-EleanOr Scott
Sharples, in the Philadelphia Ledger.
