NURSE FUND DRIVE

Less Than One Third of Two
Year Budget Obtained in
Campaign.

With less than one-thiId of the
amount it hoped to receive from the
Washington public in its treasury,
the Instructive Visiting Nurse So
ciety tonight officially closes its
campaign for a two-year budget of
100000. Total receipts from appeals
since the first of the year, including
pledges. subscriptions and donations
amount to s31,s34.7o. the society an
nounced today.
This amount, it was stated. Is not

! without the expansion necessary to
meet Increased demands for nursing
service. Therefore, the aim of the
society to avoid a yearly appeal has
not been accomplished.

Cross. president of the l. V. n. s,
today. even though short of it's goal.
the board of managers of the society
feels that the broadening of the
sympathy for and interest in the
knowledge of the visiting nurse and
her work for the city's health
brought about in this campaign
through efforts of the press. the
citlzens associations. clubs and
churches. is an invaluable asset

In 1888. forty years ago, group
Of the foremost residents of South
Washington assembled in the office Of
J. Harrison Johnson, 303 9TH street
southwest, and formed what is now
the South Washington Citizens Asso-
citation. regarded as one of the lead
ing civic organizations In this city.
Organization was deemed necessary
because the right of franchise had
been taken from the residents Of the
District and there was no other way
in which their voices could be heard
in matters pertaining TO further up
building of the city.
J. Harrison Johnson was elected
first president. He believed in rota-
ton in office. it is said, and. while he
surrendered the position of first Off
Ger voluntarily. he remained an en-
thusia site worker up to the time of
his death. The question of street

association when the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company bridged Az street

object the establishment Of coal
dump there. 1t was wholly due to
the associations efforts that the
bridge was removed and determina-
tion to establish the dump was aban-
dnned. removal of the bridge result
ing from AL appeal to the courts.
Having accomplished much in the line
of improvements, the attendance be-
came so small that meetings were
abandoned. in 1912 interest was re-
vived and a renewal Of the work in
augurated.

organization was effected was held

so much startled at my story that ]
had great difficulty in making him
understand where he was to go, and
what he was to do. At last he agreed
to come at once.
It took me only a few moments In
Bartley's car to reach the woods
again; but, when 1 arrived, 1 saw
two other cars already parked on the
roadside, and knew that the police
had preceded me.
1 found Roche and two Of his men
in the vault, comforting with BARLEY
and Black. 1t had been decided to
guard the place until morning, when
the whisky could be removed. The
chauffeur was to be taken to the Sar-
atoga jail and locked up.
When we reached the house, Mrs.
Currie came to meet US. At the sight
Of her husbands black eye, which by
this time was very noticeable, and
the ruin Of Bartley's white suit, she
gave little cry.
"What under heaven have you been
doing?" she asked.
Currie gave me a wink. Looking
for whisky" he answered.
He went to a nearby table, took
something from each pocket and
placed them carefully upon 1t. He
then stood looking down at them
proudly.
"a little souvenir Of the nights
work." he remarked, pointing to two
bottles of whisky which he had taken,
without our knowing it, from the box
that BARLEY had opened in the vault.

before advancing into the vault. 1t
seemed to me that he was startled at

Important to All Women
Readers of This Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes yeu nervous, irri-
table and maybe respondent; it makes
any one 80.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilner's Swamp-Root, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to be just the
remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tons.
Many send for 4 sample bottle to see
what SwampRsot, the great kidney, liver
