WASHINGTON, March 9.-To equip
graduate nurses soon to be released
from military service to enter public
health nursing the American Red Cross
has appropriated 100000 for scholar
ship funds.
There are about 5000 public health
nurses in the United States, and the
Red Cross hopes by the establishment
of this fund to induce many of the 20
600 graduate nurses soon to be released
from the army and navy nurse CORPS to
take either an eight months or four
months training in public health nurs-
ing, so that future demands for such
personnel may be met so far as pos
sible.
The Red Cross Public Health Schol-
arshp Fund will be administered by the
ked Cross department Of nursing, The
maximum scholarship for an eight
months course of training will be $500
and for four months course $500.
These scholarships will be granted on
the recommendatio of the Red Cross
division directors of public health nurs-
ing and the joint committee REPRESENT
ing the three national nursing organ
lzatlons through their representatives
at the Red Cross bureau of information
in New York City.

2O-Year Blight on Serbia
Red Gross Worker Tells of the
Peopie's Pifiable PLIGHT

1t would require fifteen or twenty
years to restore Serbia, DR.. Louis 1.
Dublin, who recently returned from a
Red Cross mission in the Balkans, de-
clared yesterday. He said disease had
taken terrific toll in all the countries
occupied by Austrians or Germans.
Serbia's plight was worst of ali, he
said. He continued:
at is safe to estimate that 10 per
cent of the civilian population died
each year during the occupation pc
riod.
The Bulgarians immediately after
their occupation of Serbia segregated
the best specimens of Serbian man
hood, womanhood and childhood, and
drove them out of Serbia into Bulgaria,
where they worked them mercilessly.
They worked women and mere children
on the road. Many children showed
trachoma.
THE only possible hindrance to
quick relief will be Italy's refusal to
allow our provisions to pass through
Fiume."

Zirnbalist Plays a Powell
Sonata With the Cornnoser

John Powell's sonata in A fat major
Tor planoforte and violin, was played
by the composer and Efrem Zimbalist
at the latter's recital yesterday after
noon at Carnegie Hall. The work is
IN one elaborate movement, and bv
far the more imposing pages have
been given to the piano. Perhaps it
ls natural that pianst-composer
should favor his own instrument. In
the performance of the music Mr.
Zimbelist was often overwhelmed by
Mr.. Powells vigor, and his artistic
modesty did not allow him to force his
part 1t was not until the second
number on the programme, Vieux-
temps Concert in minor, that the
many admirable qualities of the vio-
!!inist were fully revealed. Then, and
in the succeeding pieces, his beauty
of tone and elegance in execution
gave great pleasure to large au-
dience. X. W.

'rhe only number which hasn't q
smile in it is "The Snowy Breasted
Pearl" which James Harrod sings so
beautifully.
The feature picture is delightful
Dorothy Gish is twice as funny when
she only tries to be half as funny
We announced this as our opinion
when Miss Gish appeared some months
ago in slap-stick comedy at the
Rivoli the name of which we have
forgotten, and every one rose up and
said: ooh! how can you? She is a
female Charlie Chaplin!"
"Boots" is so beautifully directed
at least we suppose it is the director
who is responsible when g picture runs
along smoothly and no one is allowed
to leap all over the place and get on
your nerves.
Miss Gish is generous star, for
away with lot of the scenes. The
leading man is Richard Barthelmess
who has something that so few young
leading men have. He combines the
freshness of twenty two with the sober
judgment of fifty, and consequently
his work is marked by sincerity and
reserve which are decidedly pleasing.
