I
Nd no a@r1N. vav about SPIRITS. |
wor 4 + -. erer believed in them
from reading Conan or Mr.. Lodge. II
took personal experience to win me
over and | will tell you about it, not
wi h no idear of makeing converts
but because l guess pretty near ev-
erybody is interested in the subject
just at this time.
WISH. the other night / was talk
ing TO friend of mine and we got
talking aboui spirits and etc, and
she said a friend of hers had told
her about q friend Of the gal I was
talking to's friend, and this guy had
piece of property that he wanted
to get rid of it and he got Officer
for the property and he setdown 20
write letter accepting the officer but
when he got all ready to write his
pen begin writeing for him and here
is what it wrote:
Don't sell now but wait till tho
of Jan. and you will get offer that
is $1,000 more" And the pen signed
his old mans name that had died in
the real estate business. SO the guy
waited for the Of Jan. and sure
enough he got the offer with the $1,000
1aise and took it.
So nv friend that was telling me
abou' his says:
"That is what they call automatic
w"i0ing. I hasn't never happened tc
FL" norsonly Ia you can bet that is it
does Will follow the advice they give
re. because | heard of another man

20 write the telegram the pencil he
gin moving in his hand and wrote

ed it to and took the bet and lose
$780,
Well, I said the spirits seemed to
have the right dope in both them
instants though whole lot of peo-
pie that wasn't dead yet had told me
to not bet on Yale, but said it was
silly to disregard tips likethat when
you got them because if they was
such thing as spirits they probably
knowed more about things that is go
! iGg on than we DO.
But | says | didn't suppose a ex
perience such as those would ever
come to me as l don't hardly ever use
a pen only to sign mortgages. So
my friend said she supposed it could
happen with a typewriter just as good
as a pen or pencil so l come home
and didn't think no more about it till
the next morning when / set down
IL front of the typewriter to work.
POOR SPIRITUAL ADVICE
For over an hr. / set there with
! fingers in position to write but not
q word come. Then all of a sudden
my fingers begin 10 move and before
they stopped they was a sentence
wrote on the paper but so dim
could hardly make it out. Here is
what it said:
Now is the lime for all good men
to come to the aid of the party and
get new ribbon
That was what was wrote on the
paper and 1 set there maybe a couple
hours mere but not another word
showed up and finely l remembered
what happened to the man that took
he advice and whaJ happened to
the man tina. didn't, so l jumped on
a train and went to New York city
and bought myself a new ribbon and
set up most of that night getting it
fixed o. X. in the typewriter.
The next day 1 set down at the
desk again and waited and this time
it was 2 hrs. before my fingers begin
to move. The words was Whole
o. palmer than the other time and
was as follows:
Don't work today don't work to-
day don't work today.
Three straight days l set there
the same Tenth of time and three
straight days I got the same advice
and followed it to the letter and this
is the 4th day and I have been wo"l,

PUBLIC HEALTH NURSES AVERAGE
 3 CALLS \ DAY
FIRST PICTURE-RESCUE OF LOST BALOONISTS lPUBLC
Report On Months Work Shows Much Was Done Do Social Service Work As We'll AS Nursing

Three hundred and ten calls, an av- craze of more than three a day, were made during the past month by the Misses Etelka and Yolande Weiss, public health nurses of the MSricopa Anti Tuberculosis Society. There were 102 families on the society's call ing list.
 By no means least among the many problems presented was that of des1- tute transients suffering from tuber- culosis. In several instances the nurse in charge got in touch with the fami- lies of these patients or with philan- thropic organizations of their homo towns, enabling them to return home. Commenting on this, one of the nurses said: "So many people don't seem to realize the fact that climate alone will not effect a cure in tuberculosis; that proper food, shelter and rest are es- sential!"
 However, some patients had to re- main here, and these are being kept under supervision, first, that they may receive the necessary care, and second. that they may not become source of | danger to those with whom they must come in contact.
 Twenty seven new families were re- ported to the nurses during the month some hopeful, some pitiful
 cases. In one instance the nurses have
 to see that food clothing and medical and nursing care were provided at once for a family of five, absolutely destitute through no fault of its mem bers Tn another case young wom- an of 27. untrained and confused by 1 trouble. was trying to nurse a des- perately i'll husband and take care of l five children, the eldest only six. In this case the society provided nurse l to stay constantly with the family 1 two weeks, while the public health | nurses supervised and rendered such | service as was necessary.
 These example show that the nurses | give not only nursing care, but also do l social service work, without which public health nursing would be l failure.
 The nurse in charge, Miss Etelka 1 Weiss, gave a talk on her work be- | fore the Neighborhood club of the
 Roosevelt district and before the
 senior members of the Girls Friendly | society of Trinity pro- cathedral. Splendid cooperation was given the | nurses by the Red Cross, the Assocf- ated Charities, the county supervisors, the Presbyterian church and the Gale donian society and the physicians and individuals who gave all that was
 asked of them.
 I The nurses have their office with the Red Cross at 516 Heard buis6nza
