HOME FOLKS WORRIED
DURING FLU EPIDEMIC

The recent influenza epidemic In
this city should not become a closed
chapter without word OF praise and
for the excellent and
unaelfsh work OF the practical nurses
'6f our own home. The Red Cross
did wonderful work M did also the
Red Cross nurses brought In from the
outside. but our home people showed
their worth IN the manner In which
they met the situation and took care
OF pstiepts In the homes. Even
though we were short OF skilled aid
and the few doctors were overworked
the noble women OF this community
responded 10 every demand and
worked every available hour In car
ing for patients. Instances OF self
sacrifice are numerous and some
within the knowledge OF the writer.
In fact right IN the home OF the fam
lily. where one nurse stayed by the
side OF little patient for twenty
four hours without being relieved.
Other instances coming TO the atten-
tlon OF the writer are one teacher
who nursed In several OF the homes
aud was given check In one In
stance for her services which she
very promptly turned over to the
Red Cross; another whore tench-
er volunteered her services az the
emergency hospital and when she
was not longer needed was rendered
IA check b. the Red Cross which she
refused To take. Such work viii
ever be remembered by grateful
people and these women Will certain-
ly BE- rewarded In some manner.
