RED CROSS NURSING CLASS TO BE. FORMED
 ON MONDAY EVENING
Meeting Will Be Held at the Gov: ernor's House Monday Even ing-Rare Chance Is
 Offered

Anyone wishing to joint Red Cross class for Home Care of the Sick" will be welcomed at the Gov ernor's House on Monday evening, October 27, at o'clock when the class will be organized. The course consists of 15 lectures which will be given two evenings a week, and is a most interesting and practical one. There are few of us so fortunate as to escape an occasional illness in our household. What wonderful thing it will be to feel that we are com potent and that skillful care will not only add to the comfort but mate rially aid in the recovery of the be- loved patient. The course is particu- larly recommended to mothers. The management of St. Ann's hospital has kindly offered the Red Cross a room and complete equipment for the lectures and demonstrations. This greatly simplifes the course as there is quite long list of hospital equip 'ment required, including beds, tray tables, running water. etc. Although the number attending a class must be limited it is to be hoped that all those who have had really little ex- perience in nursing and feel the need of the teaching, will take advantage of the opportunity offered.

 SCRIPT TO SUIT HIMSELF

Desmond wanted to ride his own "cow," but Director Wells refused to take a chance of his star being injured and a cowboy known as curley drew the assign. ment This will be an exclusive fea- ture at the Liberty theatre fors to- night only. FE xF& I
 A small three-cornered pen was constructed, the camera set up at the far end and the long horn sad died with care After the close-ups, showing Desmond mounted on the steer Curley vaulted into the saddle and the fun began.
 The steer had ideas of his own. He didn't think the small pen gave him fair chance to show his fighting ability, and like some temperamental artists he changed the script to suit himself Though the pen tore the long horn and into the frightened crowd it charged Curlcy still stuck without pulling leather"
 They say that the steer bucked would be putting it mildly. With bawls and shorts, leaps and plunges the frightened beast took to the hills and when the Triangle cow-punch CTS finally coralled it, there was Cur Icy still holding his seat.
