Another matter OF interest To this
section came under Mrs. Ciark's oh
servation during her attendance up
on the convention at Portland and
also the conference with the State
superintendent was that where the
Red Cross community nurse has been
tried out the people have been entire
ly satisfied and that none OF them
signified their Intention OF dispens-
ing with the services OF such an Of
fscer. They are proving successful
and helpful In every respect and are
big help 10 Ne development OF the
children and the advancement OF
their education. We are going to
have a trial OF this which We feel
sure will convince the public OF the
great need for a community nurse In
Harney county.
