Recruiting Nurses
Advice by the New York State FEEDER
alton of Women's Clubs

| To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Tho current news letter issued
by the New York State Federation OF
Women's Clubs urges club members tc
encourage young women to take ur
nursing. Mrs. Harry C. B. Dayrell
chairman Of the committee on public
health nursing, gives this advice:
"Do not encourage young women in
taking short courses of few weeks or
months, but urge training in q reput-
able nursing school. Do help recruit
for nursing, but look for the candi-
date with the necessary qualifications
remembering that to make good nurse
one must have an alert and under
standing mind, good judgment, refined
and wholesome taste.
mo diploma is guaranty of these
qualifications, but We know they arc
rarely found except among women with
fair amount Of education, who have
had the advantages Of good home.
"Clubwomen, encourage your young
friends and daughters to prepare them-
selves for nursing, because:
81. 1t is woman's profession, which
offers opportunities to educated. So
cially-minded young women.
"2. 1t is profession which educatcs
for lie. Every normal girl looks for
ward to home and her own children.
a nurse-mothcr is equipped with an in
valuable education for her profession
of homemaking and motherhood.
"3. Tho public health nurse and
nurse citizen becomes familiar with 2ll
the problems of poverty and ignorance
as well as those Of disease, and has an
envisblc background Of knowledge for
civic work,
