The Work of the I. V. N. S.

District to the extent ot $50 900. Stand

community in the past-and none who
knows of those services could devise
a more auspicious platform-it seeks,

ciety has served Washington with a
degree of efficiency and devotion which
dollars could not buy. The income
out of which the material side of its
services have been procured has been
fixed and limited. Today larger
sum is needed. And the Washington
public. owing more to the society than
it can ever repay, will not fail to ex-
tend the needed support and encour-
agement.
The key to the work of the T. w. N
s. is contained in the title of the Or
ganiZat ton. 1t visits, it nurses and it
instructs. Its purposes. set forth in
the constitution under which it has
its being are ''to provide trained nurses
to visit and care for such persons as

to secure trained attendance: to teach
proper care Of the sick, and to incul-
cate the principles of simple santa
ton" Starting twenty years ago with
one nurse employed for the three sum-
mer months, the field for it's work has
been found so great that. struggling
to meet the demand for its services
from year to year. today a trained
staff of eighteen nurses is employed.

50. there were many calls to which the
society, organized to the utmost effici-
ency and working at top speed. could
not respond. The number of such ap-
peals has increased in 1921.
1t is to remedy that condition that
the society has turned to the Wash
ington public. asking for funds with
which to carry on. 1t will not ask in
vain. For the value OF it's work to
the community: the knowledge on the
part Of each Washingtonian that with
the $4,000 sought the glad work Of
caring for the sick-helpless old folks,
men and women facing their hour of
darkness alone. little children-will be
done. insure a whole-hearted and gen
erous response. May that response,
bespeaking as it does the confidence
of the community in the I. " n. s.
and true appreciation of its services,
hearten those to whom it will be ad.
dressed in the performance Of a vital
and beautiful work.

If the word is used with the mean

A sensible course has been adopted

controversy over committee jurisdic-

Are the days of the executive ses-

question grows out of two recent
episodes-the discussion of the Colona-

vey appointment after it had been
confirmed in closed session.
The treaty led to some very tart re-

He may do this for one of two reasons:
that the debt is hopelessly bad and

he is sorry for the debtor. But when

This strike is based upon the refusal

cannot understand that the tide has
