fANNISTON NURSING A ASSOCIATION HAS
 COMPLETED VERY SUCCESSFUL DRIVE

Anniston, September 4.-(Special.)- The Anniston Nursing Association last week completed a successful drive for funds and started their vital work. which will prove invaluable to the en- tire community.
 The nursing association has secured the services of Miss Agnes Eaton Of savanna, Ga, public health nurse of wide experience and rare executive ability and has brought a car for her use Rachael Atkins. a colored nurse, will work among the colored people un- der the direction of the nursing asso- citation.
 The preventive work will be one of the chief aims of the associa ton. San itary conditions are to be thoroughly investigated throughout Anniston and vicinity and a remedy furnished if pos sible. wherever lack of sanitation threatens the health of the community. Advice and aid will be given by the nurses to mothers in caring for their babies. Tubercular germs are slowly torturng and killing from one to three out of every one hundred men, women and children throughout the county. The nursing association, through their preventive programme, will, no doubt, be the means of saving many lives from this terrible foe.
 All calls that come to the association will be thoroughly investigated by the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-09-05

county health department and where ever case is found worthy. assistance will be given gladly and freely.
 The success of the nursing associa- ton is largely due to the efforts of Mir. H. T. Newell the president of the associat tion. who has entered heart and soul into all phases, of this splendid important work Valuable assistance was given MT. Newell in the associa- tion drive for funds to conduct the work and purchase the car by a com mittee from the Rotary Club and one from the Kiwanians. MT. Newell was also appointed chairman of the commit tee composed of members of the various welfare organizations of Anniston to perfect plans for the formation of an advisory council. The purpose of this council will be to coordinate and pre- vent overlapping of effort of the wei fare organizations now working in the county.
 All of Anniston's philanthropic or ganizations have planned a large amount of work for the coming season and it is believed that not single call will be left unanswered.
 The members of the Matrons' Study Club were entertained on Wednesday afternoon by Mrs Emmett W. Ledbettar at her home on Quintard avenue. Plans for the autumn season were discussed.
