PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE
MENTIONED IN BIBLE

II commend unto you Phoebe, our
sister, who is a servant of the Church
which is at Cenchrea," wrote st. Paul
to the Romans, "that ye assist her in
whatsoever business she hath need
of you, for she hath been a succorer
Of many and Of myself also"
Phoebe, explains Biblical history,
was woman who went about nursing
the sick and teaching them better
methods of living. Phoebe was the
first public health nurse.
Public health nursing, which is one
of the most important enterprises in
the peace program Of the American
Red Cross, is not a new movement,
but it is one which heretofore has
never received it's just need of atten-
ton as factor in maintaining the
health Of the nation.
Phoebe's sister in the twentieth cen
tury is the community nurse who
teaches better, cleaner living. Because
the betterment Of public health is now
definitely accepted as an individual
land community responsibility, the
Red Cross will make a definite effort
to raise the standards of living in the
United States by urging the employ
ment Of public health nurses in all
cities, towns and rural districts, par
ticularly in those where there are NO
organized public health activities. A
healthier, happier America-that is
what the Red Cross is striving toward
in its Roll Call the first weeks in No
vember.

Warns Students

"About Fifteen Minutes" was the
subject Of Superintendent Of City
Schools John Todd's special chapel ad-
dress at Willamette Thursday morn
ing. Superintendent Todd considered
his topic from the standpoint of the
way important decisions that are made
in life in that time. He started in with
war decisions, followed these up with
religious and professional decisions,
and closed his remarks with some
sound advice on romance judgments.
Speaking to the boys on this point,
the local educator said: Now all you
men are going to fall in love. o, I
know you. You say, 'Peuh, not me;
I'll never do anything like that but
know you--everyone of you will do
that very act before he is much older.

ishness and vampish qualities: Test the
young woman. Call on her at seven
o'clock some morning unexpectedly,
and If You find her with her hair down
pass her up. for hair down at that
time Of morning means hair in the
hash"
To the girls he said: "All that I
have said to the boys in choosing a
woman, now apply to you in choosing
man. Don't go too much on the way
the young man parts his hair, but
Judge him on his inherent worth. Try
to figure out how far he will pull in
the game of life, and tie up to him on
that basis"
| The city superintendent got most
careful hearing on his romance dis
cussion. Many Of the students ex-
pressed 4 wish that he might finish the
lecture in the near future.

SAYS the RED CROSS

Sixteen thousand mothers die in
childbirth every year in the United
States of America, more than are thus
sacrificed in any other country of i'm

American Red Cross has announced
its belief that these mothers, the very
flower of the womanhood of America
and heroines every one, shall no longer
die through ignorance or neglect, If
the public health nursing resources Of
the country can possibly be extended
to give them the necessary care. This
is one Of the reasons for the Third

Strange Pair with Child
Seen on Streets Of

possibility of little Billy Dansey be-

A strange woman and a little boy,
who Is said to greatly resemble pic
lures OF the missing Hammonton
IN. j. lad have been seen on the
streets here and have aroused no
little suspicion by their queer ac-
tIons.
Those who have seen them say
the boy appears restless and the
woman appears all the time quiet
ing and amusing him.
Mrs. Dora Evans reports having
seen them walk down the street ana
stop in front of her home. She says
both acted Queerly and the woman
did not act like a mother to the
lad.
They stopped and the woman
spent more than two hours sit
ting in the dirt alongside the road
amusing the boy.
The two played together. and the
little fellow seemed to take delight
in throwing dirt on the woman's
skirt.
One indication that they were
strangers was the fact that both sat
down in sand burrs and got them
all over their clothes.
The lad wore a dark blue velvet
felt hat and the woman a dark COL
ored hat trimmed with flowers.
Mrs. Evans says she watched the
pair closely and noted that not once
did the woman call the child by
name.
The Evans home Is on one OF the
most secluded streets in Manhattan
An investigation is being made TO
ascertain whether or not the woman
and strange child are still in Man
