RICHMOND NURSES
LOYAL TO CAUSE

The Richmond Nurses club met
yesterday afternoon in the audi
forum of the Y. w. G.. 4. and heard
a most interesting address by Mrs. j..
X. Bowman on the convention OF
Professional and Business Women's
clubs of America when they meet to
form a national organization in St
louis last July, She spoke OF tho
great advance of the women OF that
section. and said that the supposition
that the Southern women are behind
the times was untrue. There were
sixty-six delegates from the South,
the largest percentage of any of the
country. All that was done at the
convention was the writing and adop-
ton of the constitution and bylaws
and the election of officers.
After Mrs. Bowmans address rou-
tine business was attended to and
resolution adopted to send a Christ
mas box to nurses at Catawba SAM
tarium, and also to Miss Thompson.
OF Richmond, who served overseas
and is sick in a Washington hospital.
They refuted charges made against
them in their request for shorter
hours. and said that they would not
for anything desert patients who
needed attention. They were very
