their departure for their homes.
where they will remain for week
or more, since their studies will
not be resumed until January 2.
The big halls at the campus. as
well as other buildings. will be
practically vacated, since the clos
ing of the school is complete, and
there will be no special classes
during the vacation. With the
CLOSING there were many short
programs and a formal obser-
vance of the occasion. There
were many treats given and ma
ny surprises of a pleasing nature.
The return of the students for
the next period will be followed
Iby the beginning of the winter
tern in February. when the
ranks are expecte to be filled,
since there are more than 200 adj
ditional students booked for be-
ginning work at this time.

WEATHER HOLDS UP
WORK ON TOLL LINE:

While present weather is said to be
the best ever for handling tobacco, it
is not conducive to rapid outside
work, especially the building of toll
line, and this is what Superintendent
Harris, of the Cumberland Telephone
and Telegraph Company, is interest
ed in at present, since he has been
very desirfous of having the new line,
the second to connect Richmond and
Winchester, connected before Xmas.
1t is not believed that this can be ac-
complisl1ed now, owing to weather in
reference. The second line, however,
will be completed as soon as possible
The work1nen have been making
splendid progress lately, but when
the volume of work is taken into
consideration, there remains much
yet to do.

TOBACCO SEASON CLOSING

producers this week, and Xmas will
find almost every Madison county
producer with his crop ready for the

past two weeks has been the most ex-
tensive in years, it rs said. The
weather is all that could be asked for
handling the weed and there has been
little, if any; loss by dryness.

NURSING SERVICE IS
RAPIDLY EXPANDING
This American Red Cross Work
FIourishing in Small Towns
Throughout Country.

More than $1,000 graduate nurses
have been enrolled in the American
Red Cross to date and its department
of nursing is daily increasing this en-
rolIment.
The department. Of nursing has been
authorized to maintain an adequate
reserve Of nurses for the army and
navy. 1t will continue to supply the
needs OF the United States Public
Health Service to which it has as
signed more than 1000 nurses in the
last year.
1t will assist in establishing proper
nursing service in foreign countries
where the American Red Cross has Or
ganized hospitals, dispensaries and
schools for nurses. Courses in home
Hygiene and care of the sick have been
started for thousands Of women who
have never received any education in
this direction. Rural nursing which
was in its infancy a short while ago
has been put ahead at least decade
through the work OF the department
Of nursing and local Red Cross
chapters.
Public health nursing has been ex-
tended to many rural communities and
now fiourishes actively in hundreds Of
small towns and counties. Nearly
thousand efficient nurses have already
been assigned to this kind of work.
The department of nursing is unit
| ing with other organizations in years
campaign in recruiting nurses for
| training schools, in educating the gen.
era1 public as to standards OF nursing
education and in showing communities
their responsibility, toward schools of
| nursing. It will endeavor to meet all
| these needs as well as to continue the
enrolment Of dietitians who will be
utilized as instructors in home dietet-
les. in developing nutritional clinics,
and in supplying dietitians for the
United States Public Health Service
and the civilian hospitals.
| The Nursing Service Will continue to
offer to women and young girls the
opportunity Of securing instruction in
home hygiene and care OF the sick in
| every community in tue country. This
instruction has not enfy laid the foun-
| datiOn for public health but in some
places has given impetus to the estab-
! lishnent of hospitals and community

Ruhrort, which had the largest riv-

Between the Rhine and Ruhr is
Dulsburg, city of rolling mills, found

but the school was supplanted by fac
