nurse yesterday. This is COM
mendable work agitating an in
vestigation of conditions locally as
they need 20 be remedied.
Disclose Standards
Let the advice Of the three lead
ing nurses associations be carried
out, as well as that of the Red Cross
regarding the formation Of a COM
mitIee on student nurse recruiting
and it will soon learn what hos
pitfalls are up to the standard and
what ones are not.
There is talk of paying higher
salaries to the student nurses in
order to form an incentive to them
to enlist. This will only CONNER
cialize the profession and not set
the desirable class OF applicants. In
the best schools of the country the
student nurses have to pay for their
tuition, all they get is their text
books and uniforms and room and
board. What the recruit wants most
Of all is congenial surroundings and
the means of obtaining a good
training That is the primary thing
in which the big associations are
most interested

Marine Jailed
Because Corps
Won't Intervene

Reluctance of the navy to restore
Private John e. s. Brown, u. s. NJ.
c., member ofthe Presidents
bodyguard on the U. SIS. Mayfow-
er to the service. was the cause
of Brown being sentenced to six
months in Jail yesterday by Justice
Gould in Criminal Court on a
charge of bigamy.
Brown was told last week that
If the Navy Department would re-
store to him his original status,
he would not have to be in1pris-
oned. The court was informed yes
terday that the department was
chary about doing any such thing,
but would, however, overlook the
fact that he was involved with the
civil authorities and would, on his
return, hail him before a court
martial on a charge of being absent
without leave.
The Marine admitted his offense
but told the court he had no crimi-
nal intent as he had confused an
interlocutory decree his first wife
obtained with a final decree and
married again.
AS things now stand Brown will
have to serve six months and then
be tried by the naval authorities
when he is released for being alb
sent from his ship since last No
vember because of his being con-
fined in the Jail awaiting trial.
Samuel Line. who was out on
probation from a reformatory at
Elmira, n. Y. was sentenced to
serve one year in Jail for attempt
ing to pass a fraudulent check made
out on the Corn Exchange Bank of
Chicago. Ill, for 3125 and bearing
the alleged signature of B. F.
