bulance driven by Lieut.. Constance

to start the drive. The weather pre-
vented the parade, but Lieut.. Cole
drove the ambulance from Atlanta

able of doing under difficulties. The

SOUTHEASTERN FAIR
GREATEST IN SOUTH

The advertisement of the Southeas-
ern Fair, Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 1918,
which appears In another part of the
paper is of especial interest to every
one in Georgia, because of the fact
that the United States Government
has given its direct approval by send
ing big war exhibit which graphic
ally shows everything that is being
done to win the war. The equip
ment. Of the Southeastern Fair in the
way OF adequate buildings pruperIy
arranged is such that the exhibit will
be seen to a better advantage III At
lanta than in any other southern City.
In addition to this very important
feature, the entries of live stock, ag-
riculture, boys and girls clubs and
poultry have been received In such
number as to indicate that the Fair
equipment which has already cost a
half millioR dollars, must be augment
ed to take care of later entries. This
emphasizes the fact that no other fair
in the South will have the complete
ness in every part even approaching
the Southeastern Fair.
Of the recreational and entertain
ment features, it may be said that no
expense or trouble has been spared
to provide a program meeting the
needs of the people who have been
working this year in the farm trench
es and producing war necessities IN
the factories of Georgia. The race
horses from the Grand Circuit include
the speed kings and queens of the
world. The running races VIII have
the speediest sprinters in the South.
The free attractions in front of the
grand stand comprise fifteen big hip
podrome acts. The patriotic fire
works program will alone be worth
twice the price of admission.

Goodrich, president of the American
Nurses Association, and newly ap-
pointed dean of the school in process
of organization, lis based on the
standard of training schools of the
high standing of Johns Hopkins, the
Massachusetts, General, the Peter Bent
Brigham, the Lakeside, Cleveland,
the Presbyterian, st. Luke's, etc. the
plan as presented provides that the
school. should be located in the office
of the surgeon general in Washing
ton; that through the central school
the enrolment of the students take
place, and all matters relating to its
general management be dealt with.
"The course of training is to be
given in the various base hospitals
assigned as training camps, each or
which is to be a complete unit haV-
ing it's director, staff of lecturers in
structors, supervisors and teachlns
equipment, the development Of the
unit depending upon the development
of the enrolment.
1.-THE course leading to a diploma
is to extend over a period OF three
years. Surgical nursing will include
orthopedic, eye, ear. nose ana throat,
and the medical will take in PERIODS
of training concerned with communl-
cable, nervous and mental diseases.
Experience in children's diseases,
gynecology, obstetrics and public
health nursing is to be arranged Tor
through the civil hospitals and visit
ing nursing organizations.
"The reconstruction work, in which
nurses take So great part, will con-
tinue not alone in this country. but
in other countries, many years after
the war has ceased, and it is i'm
perative that we should increase
through every avenue the number of
highly trained nurses in every field.
Nothing but a very wide and deep
scope Of training must be thought of.
ut is stated outside that this
school of ours will defect students
from the civil schools. It will not
do so any more than the use OF
nurses aids. Even If this were the
case it would not be just to the sick
in the military hospitals not to pro-
vide them with the best nursing care.
..By the requirement of the full high
school or an educational equivalent
for admission to the Army Nurses
Training School, a large group now
entering our civil hospitals will not
be touched. A number of states, not
ably Maryland, require full high school
training for every applicant to their
hospital schools. The Army school must
not be on a lesser grade than the high
est civilian school Of this kind.
"a large number of prominent men
have been called to the military hos
pitfalls of the country.

I'M HIS is the hour of specialized
occupations for women as well
as men. Perhaps even more
true for women, since the
business of war is massing most of the
younger men, and many fine art or
science in the budding is lost in the
stout defenses of the firing line for
civilizations sake. Strangely, there is
one profession for women that must
be highly specialized and now goes
out to counteract and bless the young
soldiers surrender of careers This
IS nursing. The world is calling for
women trained in the science of nurs-
ing. The United States Army Nurse
Corps, organized shortly after the
spanish-American war, is striding to
the fore with plans worth while.
The Army Nurse Corps, a small or
ganizatfon comparatively before the
war broke, has 10000 nurses on active
military duty or awaiting call But
the question around which the new
movement for thousands of additional
nurses revolves is what civilian hos
pitfalls could do if depleted of any
great percentage of their nurses. The
military hospitals are expanding.
settlHS TSduy LOT the lHlO" III ~
thousand more nurses are needed, is
the statement Surgeon General Cor
fas. chief of the medical division of
the Army, stated in recent address
to the graduates of Washington
training school for nurses.
There . is need for the 10000
nurses by the 1st of January, 1919,
for the rolls of the Army Nurse
Corps alone. There has been very lit
tie publicity given the matter, except
within professional circles. Now, DR..
Gorgas and his assistants are work
ing night and day on the big drive,
not for money as big drives go
usually. but for women-women from
twenty-one to thirty-five who are
willing to step from home or school
into new fields.
No superficial, rather elastic, title
of nurses aid" is to be attached to
these young women, who quietly step
into the big gap and learn to go on

FLASHES FROM THE FRONT. By
Charles H. Grasty. illustrated.
New York: The Century Company.
An extremely useful book to the
general reader. Out of a mass Of war
observation and war study Mr.. Grasty
has brought together here certain
high points of fact that serve as an
outline under which, from other
sources. one may group the essential
details of these various salient war
features. Without access to records
of this wide scope the average reader
is lost in a maze of unfocuSed move
ments. These flashes" come from the
front itself, from headquarters and
from ministerial Offices. The Ameri-
can soldier and the French, and Brit
ish are in turn brought into the light.
There are face-to-face meetings with
famous generals, with diplomats ana
with political leaders. There are van
tage points Of different locale. There
are comparisons and contrasts with
the various arms of the service to one
another. There Is a swift backward
look into Germany for a sidelight on
the German himself All in all. this is
a widespreading view of big and es-
sential matters bearing upon the war
Most interesting, both from its sub
stance and from the fair-minded vigor

of Columbia University, in a pam
phlet now being circulated, land cannot

out a continuous period of experience
and training and the mastery of a
considerable body of scientific knowl-

up in response to a passing impulse
or as a temporary occupation for ones

'If you are interested in nursing or
any other real work, the final test of your
devotion and sincerity of purpose, as well
