Appointing kin folks to Office is
Quite common nowadays. 1t used to
be called nepotism. But that was long
Sun.
Haven't you got that hindside be-
fore. colonel? Appointing kin folks to
office began away back yonder, and
was the foundation of monarchy, au-
tocracy and all kindred evils. The
revolution out of which grew the Am
erican republic was a protest against
that order of things. American senti-
rnent and democratic principles are
against it, and democrats the world
over never fail to denounce it when
ever it is done. A steady practice of
nepotism for a generation and this
country would be efectually Prus-
sianiZed.

CLASS IN HOME HYGIENE
AND CARE OF THE SICK

To further universal health educa-
! ton and protection, the Red Cross is
urging the extension of its course in
home hygiene and care of the sick, and
believes that this instruction should
be available to every woman and girl
IN the country
This course is not intended or eX-
pected to prepare women to assume
the responsibilities of a graduate
nurse in a case of serious illness but
it does fit them to care for minor i'll
nesses and emergencies occurring in
every household.
The course consists of fifteen les
sons of about one and one-half hours
duration each. One half of each les
| son period is ordinarily devoted to
theoretical instruction and the other
half to practical work and demonstra-
ton.
In order to help defray expenses a
fee of 81 is charged each person de-
string to take this course, which re-
| quires about two weeks to complete it.
A trained nurse sent from head
quarters in Atlanta will arrive in
Ocala about Sept. Is as instructor for
classes. If sufficient number take
the lessons a night class will be ar
ranged to enable those who can not
attend the day classes to take advant-
age of the night lectures.
All those desiring to join this class
in home hygiene and care of the sick,
please phone 152 or leave their names
at the Red Cross headquarters at the
Board of Trade rooms. All names
must be in before Sept. 18th.
| The following is an outline of the
fifteen chapters of the text book
which has been adopted by the Amer
lean Red Cross as a basis for the
couse:
Causes and Prevention of Sickness
Health and the Home.
Babies and their Care
| Indications of Sickness.
