| 0R, CHANCE TO SERVE
President of National Association of
Graduate Nurses Sends Greeting
to Race Representative in
the War Department.

Special to The Kansas City Sun.
Washington, d. c., Aug. 21.-The
colored people throughout the coun'
try continue to feel deep satisfaction
over the authorization of the enroll
ment of colored women as nurses in
the base hospitals and camps where
soldiers of the Negro race are station
ed in large numbers. The hundreds
of competent colored nurses, who
have been registering their names for
many months with the Nursing Di
vision of the American Red Cross,
with the hope of finally securing po-
sitions where their skill and expert
ence might be utilized to proper ad-
vantage, are particularly gratified
over the happy turn of affairs. At the
coming convention of the National As
sociation of Colored Graduate Nurses
at st. Louis, Mo-, it is expected that a
formal message of appreciation will
be sent to the War Department, The
American Red Cross Society and other
agencies that have been instrumental
in pushing their claims for recogni-
ton.
The following letter from Mrs. Adah
b. Thoms, R. ~, president of the
National Association of Graduate
Nurses, attached to the staff of the
Lincoln Hospital and Home in New
York City, gives typical expression
of the sentiments of the colored
nurses ard of the colored people gen.
orally, with reference to the admis-
sion of colored women to this helpful
branch of Army service:
