At Least Two Years of Hard Work
and Expert Training Required
to Equip Women for War
Hospital Service.

The thought of the Red Cross nurse
calls up a picture Of self possession
and efficiency. We see her In her
white uniform passing from one hos
pital bed to another, combining tender
ness with skill In relieving suffering.
We think of her always as finish
ed product, perfectly equipped and
trained to meet emergency, maintain
ing her poise and resourcefulness un-
der the most trying circumstances
1t does not occur TO us that her
poise and efficiency are the result of
years OF training. We seldom think
Of the Red Cross nurse as anything
but Red Cross nurse. The sacri-
fees she has made, the hardshIps she
has undergone while acquiring ability
as q war nurse are real assets to her,
but do not form part Of our judgment
Of her work.
How Is the Red Cross nurse nader
We know her skill is not the result of
short course school of nursing"
We know she is not self developed
product whose natural instinct for

~mothering" and ability to relieve suf.
fering have made her what she Is.
We know that she is not mail order
product Of correspondence school.
Let us examine the process that
turns out this finished product of skill,
dependabillty and sensibility. Let US
consider the raw material" as IL went
into the hospital school for nurses and
the work required to transform It into
the Red Cross nurse of today, the
light Of service shining in her eyes, her
whole being responding to the call of
patriotism.
The Red Cross nurse was at one
time a schoolgirl, just like thousands
Of schoolgirls who today are longing
to grow up so they may do their part
in the worlds work. She was a high
school graduate, confronted with the
necessity for earning her living or else
eager to do something for humanity
and for herself. She gained the con-
sent Of her parents by showing them
the tremendous advances that have
been made recently In nursing educa-
ton and set out to discover what she
must do to become a nurse.
She was wise. She got in touch
with the nursing association of her
state and sought advice. She was told
TO select school for nurses Ia which
the course OF study and practical work
covers two years, or. better still, three

health of the families OF our soldiers
and sailors. 1t is important, therefore,
that Red Cross nurse Is trained to an
swer any call and to pass readily from
one branch OF service to another.
If she is properly advised the pros
pective pupil will be told to select a
raining school connected with a hos
pttal, in which the hours Of duty are
reasonable, where care is taken of the
nurses health and time and opportuni-
ty allowed for recreation.
The hospital must provide good op-
portunlty for training in the main
branches Of nursing and must be sup
piled with good teaching staff. The
Red Cross will not accept a candidate
who has not had actual experience in
a hospital with at least so beds and
in which students are taught to nurse
men as well as women.

RAPID PROGRESS ON
MUNITIONS PLANT

Work on the government muhi-
tions plant at Nashville, Tenn, is
progressing rapidly. Such was the
report received this morning by the
federal state employment office 200
l-2 West Main street.
Approximately $50 men will leave
Ardmore at ! o'clock Sunday morn
ing for work on this plant and all
who have made application or in
tend doing so should report at the
office either this afternoon or to-
morrow. The work takes in prac-
tically every building trade and
laborers. A special call is made to
negroes to enlist as this class OF
workmen is particularly needed.
They will be provided with first
class transportation and meals en-
route TO Nashville and have special
quarters assigned 10 them on their
arrival.
Work on this plant will last about
eighteen months, and other work is
on hand so that those who enlist
may be assured of steady employ
ment.

Let US now suppose the girl has
chosen her school for nurses. Her
trunk Is packed with her simple, al
most soldierly, equipment, and she Is
on the threshold Of her career.
One wonder after another unfolds
itself in the hospital The orderliness
and quiet of the place impress her.
She marvels at its system and the well
oiled machinery which keeps 1t going.
The thought that she Is part Of this
system brings in turn feelings of awe
and interest. In her classroom she finds
the answer to many of the questions
which perplex her in the wards Of the
hospital to which she Is soon intro
duced. In the wards she finds prac-
teal demonstrations to help her un-
derstand the theoretical knowledge
she is gaining from books and lee
