$4,000 Women Wanted to Enroll ID the
u. S. Student Nurse Reserve.

The Kentucky Division, Women's
Committee, Council of National De-
Tense, has been asked to recruit $50
young women of sound physical and
mental qualihc cations, for nurses
training to release American gradu
ate nurses for service in the military
hospitals overseas. 1t is officially
stated by the Federal authorities in
Washington that $4,000 such stu
dents are needed now, to form "a
"United States Student Nurse Re-
serve"
The chairman of the National
Womans' Committee states the need
as follows:
"What is needed is the enrolment
of IS, 900 physically fit young wom-
en- between the ages of 70 and IS,
having full high school training
wherever possible, and preferably
college training. Enrolment in the
Student Nurse Reserve means that
the candidate will hold herself ready
until April I, 1919 to take training
when she is offered an assignment in
training school, unless she has IN
the meantime entered other govern
ment war scrvice.n
Every woman who completes the
training course satisfactorily may
be eligible for enrolment as a Red
Cross nurse and stands a chance of
being assigned 10 duty abroad. At
the same time she will be qualified
to earn her living in one of the no
blest professions open to women.
The work of the nurse is a nation
al service for women which seems
more nearly the equiv alent of the
Army and Navy service for men
than any other. She stands side by
side with the fighting force in the
first line of defense and out of the
fearful waste and havoc of war>she
saves numberless prescious lives,
besides helping to protect our men
from the .scourge of disease, which
is often more deadly than bullets.
She also relieves the suffering and
boosts the courage and spirit of
wounded and battered men.
The important thing to remember
IS that as a student recruit IN the
hospital training school you are act
ually rendering a vital service to
your country from the moment you
enter, for you become at once q
member of the national life-savIng
corps and each day you are steadily
advancing to more and more respoa-
sible and varied duties and steadily
preparing to replace graduate
nurse on the firing line. The op-
portunities for service to your count
ry and of benefit to your future well
fare are too numerous to even men
ton in this article, but if you are in
terested you can secure leaflets which
give detailed information on this
subject or you can enlist with Miss
Jessie Barley, in Moore's and Tan
ner's Office, who is acting as recruit
ing officers for Muhlenberg county.
Lets keep up the standard already
set by Muhlenberg county and Ken
lucky.

PRISON LABOR A. FACTOR

Prison labor as a factor in winning
the war is being urged by Warden
John Francies of the Western Peni-
Tertiary, who is a recognized author
ity on the management of penal in
situations, and reclaiming recreant
manhood. Mr.. Francies has taken up
the subject with the Chamber of
Commerce of Pittsburgh, which body
has called upon Congress to enact
! Legislation which will permit $4,000
inmates of prisons in the country to
engage in war work.
According to the view of Mr.. Fran
cies the criminal is a patriot accord
ing to his lights. He will be glad to
help to win the war if allowed to do
so. State laws passed to fit peace con-
/ ditions prevent this. He holds that it
should be possible to suspend these
laws for war purposes during the
continuance of the war by act of Con-
gress. That it has been done Mr.. Fan.
cies thinks is due to make use of the
resources of the prisoners labor
Mr.. Francis expressed a firm be-
lief in the patriotism of labor and
does not think it will oppose the use
of prison labor in making supplies
under present conditins.
81 am in possession of data which
shows that 5 pecent of the prison
labor of the country, engaged on the
manufacture of socks, will turn out

have had twice that many socks
ready to send our soldiers in
France to keep them from freezing
during the coming winter. We could
have had them if this proposition of
our prisoners had been allowed to
work on them.
lF'What is true of socks is true Of
other supplies. There are buildings,
and machinery available to turn out
immense quantities of supplies and
they are not being used. There are
$4,000 persons rotting in idleness in
prison cells in this country because
they have no employment. They arc
degenerating morally, mentally and
physically, while their country and
the people of Europe need the work
they would be glad to give. Some
thing should be done to change this
