The masquerade dance for the be-
neft of the equipments of the Home
Nursing Class room was success in
spite of the many friends who failed
to cooperate. feel sure the citi-
zens of, Bay st. Louis and Hancock
county did not realize their duty in
regard to extending theis great work
or their want of cooperation would
not have been so keenly felt.
Mrs. Lacoste is teaching the lass
es free of charge, and the entertain
ment was to get meney to buy more
equipment to use in her practical de-
monstrations. in the class room at the
Red Cross Headquarters for the good
of the citizens Of the PEOPLE of Han
cock county.
IL Mrs. Lacoste had not given her
services the Red Cross would have
have been out of money in having to
pay an instructor from headquarters,
and our Chapter here furnish the
necessary equipment for the class
room, which they have already part
ly equipped.
Every dance, etc, given at the w.
o. W. Hall for anything connected
with the RedCross and war work have
been literally patronized, and why
make a distinction when it comes to
Home Nursing? Which is the most
important?
We must get away from our pre-
judices and petty jealousies if we
aim to benefit humanity. really
think all who failed to cooperate
with Mrs. Lacoste in her effort to OBJ
tain all the necessary funds to fur
nish the equipment of the Home Nurs-
ing room is due her an apology. Rest
assured it is all to benefit humanity.
