B WERE LOST ON AMERICAN
 SHIP CUDAHY

WASHINGTON. D. C., Aug. 31.- The United States cargo ship Joseph Cudahy is reported to have been sunk 700 miles from the English coast on August 17. SiXty-two of the crew are reported to have been drowned. According to the officials, all vessels which were in the vi- cinity of the sinking have been heard from and it is impossible that the men could have taken d lifeboat and still be alive and at sea. The only chance that some of them may still be alive is that they might have been taken aboard some submarine, and that possibility is very remote. The men lost included mostly naval armed guards.

experiment on and to create sensa-

This is the latest inspiration Of a

ed chintz makes the smock which is
a comfortable garment loosely belt
ed. Knee breeches take the place of
the conventional skirt and button
snugly about the knee. The heavy
socks serve as a good protection, es-
pecially If the wearer is going berry,

are the very essence of good sense.

Trained Nurses
Urged to Enroll
For Active Duty

In answer to Surgeon General Cor
gas cali for 1000 nurses per week,
which the American Red Cross is ex-
pected to furnish, the Red Cross ma
chinery has been put in motion, with
the result that a nationwide, Disk
campaign is in progress.
North Dakota is asked to furnish
16 nurses each week, this number be-
ing apportioned to the various dis
tricts Of the state. Grand Forks
county belongs to the northwestern
district, over which Miss Mae Nc
J Culloch of this city has charge. Other
counties in the district are Walsh.
Pembina, Cavalier, Ramsey, Nelson,
Towner, Benson, Rolette and Pierce.
Every trained nurse in every county
in the state is being listed, and those
who are available for active service
are being urged to volunteer at once.
Practical nurses also are being listed.
not for service with he Red Cross.
but for home service. BY handling
certain features of the nursing, these
practical nurses may release the train
ed nurses for service with the Red
Cross.
People are urged to do without
trained nurses as much as possible IN
order to release them for Red Cross
service. The American people have
learned that this war a not he won
without sacrifices. We have learned
to do without many things h a a
year ago were considered essentials.
If we call for the services of n grad
uate or registered nurse when such
services are not absolutely necessary,
we are helping keep a nurse away
from a wounded boy in France.
On July 1 there were 406 registered
nurses in North Dakota, and of these
1853 had enrolled with the Red Cross.
OF the 1853 enrolled, los have been
assigned to duty. This leaves Just CO
registered nurses enrolled, and the
majority of these. for wholly valid
reasons, cannot be assigned to do
duty outside of their home cities.
These figures also near too. that
there are 238 registered nurses in
North Dakota who have not enrolled
with the Red Cross. The present
drive will give an accurate record
of these, and the reasons that they
are not enrolled.
