Home Nursing Helps For
Women ON Farms

The woman who lives in the country
may not have the things she needs
when sudden sickness comes to the
home. The following suggestions from
Miss May Morrissey, home economics
expert at the University of Wisconsin,
may help.
Salt or sand bags, jars of hot wat
er, or flannel heated in the oven may
be used in place of a hot water bag.
Bandages made from a worn sheet will
be very useful in the home where there
are children
when a feeding cup is not available,
a small cream pitcher is an excellent
thing to use in giving fluids to very i'll
patients
fThe medicine cupboard should con-
tain a mouth wash, disinfectant, cath
artic zinc ointment, and alcohol. This
cupboard should be kept out of the
reach of children and each medicine
should be labeled. Never give drug
NhlSh 10 bOO pAehiAby ioOC1SOs oAlN otN .
measure the dose accurately. Do not
let old medicines collect in the homes
They are dangerous to use because the
label often gives directions without
saying what the medicine is for.
sin case of Group keep the air in the
room moist This may be done by lett
ing teakettle boil in room. A Group
tent is made by draping a sheet or
blanket over the crib, supported at the
head by clothes bars, may be used.
'Poultices are frequent home rem
edy. The poultices should be kept hot.
A hot water bag laid over the poultice
will help it to retain its heat. To pre-
vent burning with mustard plaster, mix
it in the proportion OF one teaspoon OF
mustard to three of -four. Use half the
lquantity of mustard for child"

HERE ON APRIL 8.
To Consider Changes In Party
Rules Providing for Larger
Committee.
MAY INCREASE SIZE TO n

A a result OF the meeting on Sat
urday afternoon by tho New Castle
County Democratic Executive Com
mittee, a cali has been issued for
county convention on April 8. 1t will
be held in Democratic headquarters.
on French street between Sixth and
Seventh. starting at / o'clock In the
afternoon.
The purpose IL to consider propos-
ed amendments In the party rules for
the county. which will make II possi-
BILE to extend the committees scope
and include women in itA membership.
The chief amendment will provide for
the election OF ono man and ono wom-
an from each Of tho ~ election dis
tricts In the county outside OF Will
mington.
No change win be made in tho Will
minGton representation, except the
addition OF one woman from each OF
the five representative districts in
Wilmington. The present Wilmington
delegation comprises Ave men, one
from each OF the five representative
districts. The amendments, II adopted,
Will give Wilmington ten members
OF the County Committee, instead OF
FIVE, as at present.
This is not a discrimination against
wilmington, as might be inferred at
n glance, for the reason that party
matters In Wilmington are handled
largely by the City Committee, which
comprises one man and ono woman
from each OF the 125 election districts
in the city. Therefore, the proposed
change in the county rules merely
gives the county outside OF Whining
ton the Same opportunity TO keep In
close touch with affairs as the lsar-ty
organization Of the city enjoys in VIII
mington,
The County COMMITTEES now num-
oers 10 members. If the rules are

provided. the total membership will
be "a.
The chairman in each hundred will
be notified of the cali for convention
and II will be his duty to call a hun
dred meeting for the election of six DEL
esases TO attend the convention. The

ably hold a meeting next Thursday
night TO arrange for the election OF
three convention delegates for each

friends are to be accepted. Senator
Johnson declared, and abrogation Of
the Anglo-Japanese alliance Is 10 be
regarded as the chief purpose OF the
four power arrangement then the only
conclusion is that the United States
must enter the new alliance" to es-
cape threat OF danger because of the
old.
Mr.. Johnson quoted many utterances
Of Japanese and British statesmen CIV
ing assurance that the Anglo-Japanese
alliance never was directed against
the United States, and asserted II
these solemn declarations were not
TO be believed, then this government
was following a foolish policy by es-
tablishing a partnership with powers
which had deliberately deceived the
American people:

like that which was precipitated by
