Great Citizen Amy
Asked by National
Guard Association

Washington, Aug. 30.-Organiza-
ton through a new system of uni
versat military training of great
citizen army to be known as the
National Guard Corps was pro-
posed by the National Guard as
ISOLATION in a statement made pub
lie through the National Security
league. Thirty divisions of the Ma
t;onal Guard Corps, functioning as
4 separate corps of the United
States army under the direction of
the secretary of war, is proposed,
Instead of subjecting all l9-year-
old youths to three-months'
course of intensive military train
inl as proposed by the War depart
ment, the guard association would
have military training as a part of
the national public school system,
with youths entering this course
when IA years of age. After this
preliminary training, they would be
given two months training in the
field and then would be graduated
into the guard. where they would
serve actively for two years and
nine months before being placed in
the reserve for three wears.

present time has failed to give the
nurses the asked for recognition. In
the army reorganization bill, after
enumerating the many officers of the
medical, dental and veterinary corps,
the department says: THE nurse
corps shall be constituted as now
provided by law" This means, in
plain English, that the nurse corps,
a body of highly trained profession
ais, is left on the standard of the en-
listed man. 1t means also that the
nurse corps is the only corps in the
army to which rank is not given.
Still it is given even to the army
bandmaster. Also the standard set
for the nurse corps is higher than
for any other corps in the army.
They must meet not only a physical
test as do the enlisted men, not only
a physical and mental test as do the
officers, but also a moral test such
as no other corps in the army has to
submit to.
During the war almost 1900
nurses entered the service of their
country. There still are 10000 in the
service caring for the $4,000 sick and
wounded men still in Our military
hospitals.

Comes to Omaha.
Both of the first two causes act
uated Mr.. Sweet to forsake the land
of his birth for the haven of refuge
offered by America. In the first
moments of his arrival to "the land
of the free and the home of the
brave" he was bewildered by the
noise and lar of the mighty city. its
teenling population and its millions
who fed ghostlike through the
streets each bent upon the execu-
ton of his own task.
But fortunately, his experiences in
the mightiest city of this continent
were short lived. New York was
left behind and the weary bewild-
cred stranger, pathetically lone
some, arrived in Omaha, one cool
day to take up his residence with
relatives.
And here romance and love
exerted their spell and wove about
the young timid stranger their web
of circumstance.
Old Prejudices Revived.
The crest of the immigration wave
from Europe always breaks on the
cities of the east, but little pools and
eddies of this wave are deposited
Throughout the country. Various
localities claim their portion of
these immigrants. Omaha is one of
these cities. To it annually come
thousands from the opposite side of
the world in the quest of those
things denied them in their home
lands. The old prejudices of race,
of creed, of belief are for time re-
vived by these strangers who clan
together in our midst until the justly
famed melting pot assimilates and
