MISS BOARDMAN LAUDS
VISITING NURSE SOCIETY
Tells Of Work of Organization
Which Is Conducting Drive
for Membership.

Approval of the work of the In
structive Visiting Nurse Society. which
is carrying on two weeks member
ship drive, is given by Miss Mabel T.
Boa rdman of the American Red Cross.
Miss Boardman calls attention to the
aid given by the society during the
influenza epidemic and declares it to
be one Of the most important insti-
buttons in Washington.
The Instructive Visiting Nurse So
ciety." said Miss Boardman, is carry
ing on one of the most important
works of any welfare organization in
Washington, and it is accomplishing
much more than the public realizes.
Were it not for the cooperation of
this society with the Red Cross dur
ing the influenza epidemic" the results
would have been more serious than
they were. The society on that occa-
sion worked untiringly and is ac-
complishments were Of untold value
to the public and the community.
The need of such an institution
for the caring of the sick and the
| teaching of hygiene and sanitation in
every community is evident from ex-
perienc c. gained l., in the creation OF
ciety is worthy of the support of the
Washington public"
Mrs. Whitman Cross. president Of
the society, commenting on the work
of the society, said:
Our nurses are angels of mercy
among the people, who are unable to
pay for nursing service. They pro-
tect the sick in their troubles and
teach them hygiene for the benefit
Of the whole community. They restore
hope to the hopeless and joy to child
hood deprived of its birthright. They
carry comfort healing and some of
the zest anu beauty of normal life
into homes that seem gray and mega
tive in the extreme. One of the re-
wards of the work is that success
oftentimes attends efforts when
strong-hearted nurses had anticipat-
ed failure. The great joy is in the
service rendered."1ot-
Checks for memberships should be
, made payable to Mrs. A. P. Gardner,
treasurer Instructive Visiting Nurse
Society, 1413 G street northwest.
There are memberships at 81. So, IS

Austro-German Affiliations.

Though Austria will be prevented
from uniting with Germany in the terms
of peace about to be announced, no at
tempt Is made to disguise the fact in
Washington that Austria, because of the
common ground Of race and language,
will continue to work in close utilization
with Germany. Inasmuch as the char
acter of the present German government
yet is to be proven, there exists strong
suspicion that the very elements which
backed the kaiser and which are strong
ly convinced Of the old ideas of Euro
pean territorial expansion also dominate
the present government. in which case
the allies believe that Austria will be
used as the catspaw for Germany in
further attempts at domination of all of
southeastern Europe.
That strong barriers eventually will be
erected against the accomplishment of
this purpose is conceded, but the ques-
ton of how peoples under new regimes
can best be protected during the period
Of reconstruction is problem which
has given the allied statesmen in Paris
considerable worry. The Austrian dep
relations and prosecutions of once sub
ject people are but an example Of what
may happen.

Greeted With Silence.

This was greeted with absolute
silence on the part Of the men gath
cred at the luncheon, numbering be-
tween ESQ and 800, nearly all of whom
were British. A few minutes before
they had cheered heartily the state
ment that the American Navy aviators
had been successful in reaching
Europe
Hawker disclosed that on Saturday
night. Immediately preceding his start.
he and Raynham had agreed that I'M
less the wind changed they would
start on Sunday for flight by way
Of the Azores and Portugal. The
wind veered slightly Saturday night,
enough to give Hawker and Grieve
the chance to start from their air
drome. but it was unfavorable for
Raynham.
He declared that. although the
weather was unfavorable. the sue
cess of the Americans in reaching the
Azores forced him to start.
ANY Englishman here" he added,
would have done the same thing I'M
der the same circumstances"

Hear Mr.. Taft's Plea for League.

Many of the committeeman heard
Mr.. Taft urge that the league be
considered without respect to party,
but wholly as patriotic question.
Chairman Homer S. Cummings of
the committee in an address said
that failure of Congress to approve
the covenant might force President
Wilson to enter the race for a third
term on this one issue.
while 1 do not consider the league
of nations covenant a party issue at
this time" said Chairman Cummings.
Il do say that it would strengthen
the pressure on the President to run
again if it should be defeated in the
Senate"
The selection of the meeting place
of the next democratic national con-
vention was informally discussed by
the committeeman, although the ques-
ton will not be decided until next
winter.
