NURSING SERVICE is
RAPIDLY EXPANDING
This American Red Cross Work
FlouriShing 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-
rollment.
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
sanized hospitals, dlspensarIes 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-
ended to many rural communities and
now flourishes actively in hundreds Of
small towss AID counties. Nearly q
thousand efficient nurses have already
been assigned to this kind of work.
The department of nursing Is unit
ing with other organizations in a years
campaign in recruiting nurses for
training schools, In educating the gen.
eral public as to standards of nursing
education and in showing communities
their responsibility toward schools of
nursing. 1t will endeavor to meet all
these needs as well as to continue tha
enrolment of dietitians who will be
utilized as instructors in home dietet-
les, in developing nutrltional clinics,
and in supplying dietltians for the
United States Public Health Service
and the civilian hospitals.
The Nursing Service will continue to
offer to women and young girls the
of securing instruction in
home hygiene and care of the sick in
every community in the country. This
has not only laid the foun-
dalton for public health but in some
places has given Impetus to the estab-
lishment Of hospitals and community
school houses
"As community profits by the work
Of the nurse" says Miss Clara d. !
Noyes. director of the department of
nursing, at Is logical that the COM
nunity should be aroused to its respon-
5ibillty. The American Red Cross
stands ready to help in a general cam
oaign of recruiting and must have the
support, sympathy and understanding
If the medical profession as well as
he intelligent cooperation of the
people at large"

AMERICAN TOYS FOR
AMERICAN BOYS

The effect of protection to American
industries seems nowhere to be more
happily apparent than in the case of
the toy industry. In 1913, the last year
before the war, we imported $9,000,-
900 worth of toys, of which S7,700, 900
worth came from Germany. That year
we exported but $SO9,OOO worth, of
which Canada and England took the
bulk Then came the war and our
toy imports from Germany dwindled
away to nothing for the year 1913
In the meantime. the AmericNa toy
industry was rapidly dev clipping un-
til this is what Harry C. Ives, presi-
dent of the Toy Manufacturers of the
United States, has to say of it:
1.-THE American production of toys
for 1920 is, conservatively, $S0,000,000.
Of that total S15,000,000 represents
the production of dolls ranging from
the stuffed cloth variety to the finest
quality throughout and surpasses
anything in dolls ever produced in
the world. Included in the balance of
SOS, 100000 worth of American toys
are playInings OF ali kinds and ali
made of honest materials, finest
workmanship and durability combin-
ed with originality of ideas and design
and of truly educational value that
place them in a class by themselves. |
Just as carloads of tops are leaving
carloads OF sleds are leav-
ing Maine and Michigan, carloads of |
coaster wagons are leaving New York, |
carloads of wheeled wagons are leav- |
ng the State of Ohio and enormous |
shipments of dolls are leaving New |
York City. If there is any good rea-
son why American children should
nave foreign toys forced upon them
when the supply of their own nation
Il playthings is abundant, have nev-
,r heard of it. Toys are national to
he country of their origin as they
AVE been since the days of the early
Egyptians"
In addition to the fact that our toy
manufacturers have developed to a
,oint where they can supply the do
nestle trade with "Toys Made in Am
rica." we are now exporting them as
ever before, S3,1OO,000 worth having
een exported for the nine months OF
he current year ended September 80.
)uring recent years there has been
,Iite an increase of toy imports from
anan. but the sticks and glue of
gbich those toys are made render
hem so fragile that they give little
1t is the poor wind
rhich blows nobody good, and while
le storms of war have over-toppled
lrones and destroyed property run
ing into many billions, the protec-
on which the war gave to many Am
rican industries enabled them to at
lin a high state of development, ana
nder Republican policies these IN
lstries will not be permitted TO De

leap production of foreign LANDS.
