SECRETARY OF WAR
APPEALS FOR MORE
RED CROSS NURSES

Secretary of War Baker has is
sued an official call for nurses tc
care for the soldiers who are sure
/ TO need them in the heavy fighting
ahead Of them in France. He made
the call through the American Red
Cross, which is in charge of tie
recruiting of nurses.
Next after the arming, sheItering
and transporting of the army. the
secretary said, comes the duty OF
conserving its health and vitality,
and binding up the wounds which
unhappily. but inevitably, must
come to it
Secretary Baker urges all hos
pitfalls to release as many nurses
as possible for overseas service g:
all training schools to increase
their output OF graduate nurses /;
civil communities to take care Of
the public health so that fewer
nurses will be needed; and all per
sons TO take as little time of nurs
es as possible, but to rely on al
PENDANTS who cannot serve the
army.
The call from Secretary Baker
is in line with the original appeal
from Surgeons Generals Gorgas OF
the army and BREASTED of the navy,
declaring that they must have 25.-
900 nurses before the end OF the
year
The Red Cross made public the
new need OF nurses on June 3. and
all its chapters began the work of
calling on nurses to enroll. and
people to release all the nurses
they possibly could. Instantly
the nurses began to respond. and
inquiries by the score were re-

ceived from devoted women who
are trained to relieve suffering and
save life
There is no room for doubt that
army and navy will get the nurses
they need at this time. More i'm
portant is the matter Of a supply
for next year. and the years there
after, if the war shall last so long.
To make sure of that supply, it is
proposed to establish. at many or
all the army cantOnments, train
ing schools where young women
can be given course similar TO
that in the large hospitals. After
a certain amount of training in
camp they VIII be sent to civilian
hospitals, graduated. and given di-
plomas, when they will be eligibie
for service as Red Cross nurses.
The campaign for nurses is just
as much a part of the peoples
business as the saving of food, the
paying of taxes, the recruiting Of
the army and navy. The people
can do their part by waiting on
each other in sickness, and letting
the fighting men have the nurses

Dear Mrs Thompson: ] am the

You told me to try him with mon
ey. | have tried it very often, but
he spends too much. He went to
the circus and spent Sc and saw
everything twice. / also promised
him a watch for his birthday.
In January he went away from
home for a week. when II was very
cold. | was worried to death and
thought something had happened
to him. Then he came back home
and l promised him anything If he
would be a good boy. He is boy
whose love you cannot buy with
money and he does not care for
jewelry.
Another thing, he will not clean
himself. | bought him a suit which
cost S35. He wore it five weeks
and it looks something awful. he
wears expensive clothes. His faith
er could use him in business. but
on Saturday he goes down town.

Sunday. All the week | give him
his everyday money. He Is very
hard on clothes and careless. !

school and make up what he lost,
but he won't. He wants to go for

like to give him a good education.
What shall 1 60? NJ. 5.
You are over-indulgent. Your
husband should work with you n
disciplining your son. The burden
is too heavy FOR you to bear alone.
You and your husband should de-
eide upon a fair allowance with
which he should be compelled to
buy his clothes and finance him
self. Do not make the allowance
larger than necessary or it will
only spoil him more. You love
your boy too much for his own
good.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am II
years old and have been going with
a girl about a year. She always
seemed to like me, but lately she
has been going out with soldiers
and does not seem to like my com
pany. I dropped her. Did I do
right? DOUBTFUL.
Since she did not seem to like
your company there was not mucn
you could do besides drop her.
When a girl does not enjoy boy
he would be foolish to spend his
time with her.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: There is
a man friend of mine and every
time he sees me on the street he
stops and talks to me and wants
to walk home with me. Do you
think he cares for me?
DIMPLES.
He likes you apparently, but he
does not care a great deal or he
would ask permission to call on
you and to take you places.
Dear Mrs Thompson: % Should
a widow lay aside her wedding
ring when she becomes engaged
the second time?
(2) Should she use her given
name in writing letters, signing
checks and so forth! Or should
she use her husbands initials?
IN DOUBT.
~ She should lay aside her
wedding ring when she becomes
engaged again.
(2) 1t is a matter of preference
whether q widow uses her given
name or her husbands initials.
When a widow becomes engaged
again I should think she would
prefer to use her given name.
Dear Mrs. Thompson. I have
been going with a very nice young
man for three years. I am IT.

Movement Of Troops Across
Atlantic Clearing Out
CantoIanents

Washington, May 14.-Thousands OF
men called in the last two draft in
crements will soon be on their way to
France. So rapid has the movement Of
American troops across the Atlantic
become that soldiers who had no hope
Of active service within six or eight
months will perhaps be on the firing
line this summer.
After two or three months elemen-
tary training, these new selected men
will be given their finishing touches
in the sound of the enemy's guns and
even under fire if the need for men is
acute.
Reports from the environments, army
officers said today, tell of an acceler-
alton in the training work under good
weather conditions.
Meantime, the impression grew here
today that British politics had a hand
in the mysterious Ottawa statement
anent using American troops only as q
full individual army.
Explanation that the statement was
due ito Can error" only served to ac.
centuate the mystery around it. The
fact that the British ambassador. was
