AS ONE WOMAN SEES IT
Flag Display That Irritatcs Us.
Nurses Problem Now Awaits Us.
Rule Of Rhythm Dominates Us
BY SARAH ID. LOyyRIE

A WOMAN asked me today If I did not
"A think that in view of the war being over
and peace declared, even with Germany, it
would be just as we'll If the churches that
had belatcd flags Of the Allies adorning their
pulpit spaces should gather them in. I
said If they were there for their bright and
cheerful colors, I could sympathize with
their being kept out, but If they symbolized
any sort of feeling such as 'lest we forget" J"
the sooner they were In camphor the better,
EXCEPT on Armistice Day.
I fancy, however, very few churches have
left them about except inadvertently. It
would be rather a facing backward move
ment for any congregation to contemplate
jas present, issue an alliance that except
historically can be said to exist no longer.
Perhaps to a few foreign born enthusiasts
there may yet be hope that America will
enter into foreign alliances with this or
that European Power. But for the most
of us the Monroe Doctrine is preferable
to the balance of power doctrine. and will:
ing as We are to send food to Russia and
grain to China and Zionists to Palestine ana
missionaries to Africa and Standard oil to
Timbuctoo, it docs not strike me that
keeping up the war feeling even symbolically
has much chance except in very dated"
and behind the times bodies of churchgoers.

THERE would. of course. continue to be the
l. professional nurses who belong to our
order and who would enter the work for
purely business or scientific reasons; but
with the necessity that has come to many
women to earn a living, and with the pre-
cariousness Of those earnings to bulwark one
against illness or old age, I think that en-
dowcd orders of more than one type would be
a very great mission for the Church to work
out under modern conditions and with many
of the hampering clauses of mcdIevalism
omitted.
