King Solomon
in Feathers


The literary history of the raven be-
gins with Noah and Elijah. Natural
lists call him s'the most wary, the most
amusing, the cieverest of birds" He
has also been described as grave, dig
nified and sedate and many Instances
have been given of the peculiarities of
this historical bird
The bill of the raven is a formidable
weapon-strong stout, sharp at the
edges curved toward the tip. 1t is his
one weapon of offense. but it answers
the purpose of two or three. Like the
dirk of the oldtime plainsman. il is
equally available as dagger or as a
carving knife. 1t can also be used as
"a pair of pIncers. 1t can kill rat at
one blow. The raven can drive its beak
righi through the spines of a hedgehog.
1t is said that tne raven will never at
tack a man Il this be true K is, It
is thought, not ST much from any de-
feet of courage IA from the birds
keen intellectual perception of what
will pay and what win not.
Like most or his tribe, the raven is,
in the strictest sense of the word. om-
nivorous. His dietary ranges from "a
worta TO a whale"
When his nest is built, as 1t general
ly is, beneath some overhanging rock
which quite conceals it from view from
above, its position may sometimes be
discovered by the remains of rabbit
neatly laid in the short grass nj the ron.
Of the cliff in what might be called
his Harder" But larder implies an
amount of economy and self-restraint
that 1t Is not in the raven to practice.
In districts where food is scarce the
ravens win attack without scruple a
newly born lamb or even sheep that
has been east.

Geneva. 1t may be
awarded to only one nurse of a ma
ton each year. Thus these six women
represent Americas high roll of nurs-
tng since the outbreak of the Great
War In 1914. The Florence Nightin-
xale medal was established In 1912.
Ut can be awarded "only to traincd
nurses who may have especially dis
tinguished themselves by great and
exceptional devotion TO the sick and
wounded In peace or war;
The Florence Nightingale medal is
well named Florence Nightingale
1(1S201910) was the pioneer of traired
army nursing. She was an English
woman, born in Florence. She be came
interested in nursing early aud went
through courses of training in France
and Germany. She then made study
OF hospital methods In Europe. She
became the friend of the ragged
schools and other similar institutions
of London.
Opportunity knocked at her door I'm
the Crimean war. In 1854 reports of
the awful conditions surrounding the
wounded and sick reached London
and she sailed for Scutari with a staff
OF 80 volunteer nurses. There she
toiled until the British troops left the
town In 1886. Her nightly round of
the wards won for her from the sol
ldiers the title of LADY With the
lamp" She not only nursed the sick
and wounded but started educational
classes and organized reading.
Fame rewarded her. Her country
made her gift of $250,000. With
this she founded training home for
nurses. Soon she became a general
adviser of the civilized world, in mat
tiers Of nursing and sanitary reform.
Her example and influence brought
about the organization Of the Red
Cross society She wrote ''Notes on
Hospitals" (1S59) and Notes on
Nursing" uS60).
SO the name of Florence Nightin-
gale calls up a brave picture of wo-
manly devotion, made more valuable
by trained skill. The records of the
issS A:perican women honored with the
Florence Nightingale medal show that
they are worthy recipients of this
highly.prized decoration, The six
nurses are:
Helen Scott Hay, Washington, d. G.
Florence Merriam johnson, New
York City.
! Martha NJ. Russell. Boulder, Colo.
Alma f. Forester, Chicago, III.
! Linda X. Meirs, Boston, Mass.
! Mary f. Gladwin, New York City.
All six of these nurses saw service
abroad. Following Is a condensed
