NURSES ADOPT NEW
! HEALTH PROGRAM.
Will Develop Community
Nursing Urging Public to
Help Fight Disease.

Every United states citizen Will
ultimately be affected by a revolution
that has just started in Americas
health program Nursing has begun
a new era-to work with and not for
the public. Instead of shutting itself
in and the reople out. which hitherto
has been the policy of professional
groups, it opens it's doors and. with
the public as partner in community
health work. crosses the threshold
into a startlingly new reality"
SO Miss Elizabeth G. Fox, national
director of the American Red Cross
Public Health Nursing Service, newly
reelected president of the national
organization for public health nurs-
ing, just returned to Washington
summed up the results of the great
biennial nursing convention in De-
fessional women ever held in this
country, some 5000 nurses and lay
women attending the various meet
ings.
This realization of partnership in
health she further said. has been
dawning in local groups all over the
country wherever there is a public
health nurse. We now see that We
cannot impose health on the people.
them to make possible facilities and
instruments which bring it. AS a re-
suit of this convention, nursing Will
open its doors to the laity. Its key
note is come in and help US so that
we shall be the better able to help
you Nurses will now take the pub
lie into their confidence, will let peo-
pie know what they are trying to do
the barrier Of old prejudices and mis-
understanding will be swept away.
Better Nurses Wanted.
1.-The new attitude OF mind is partly
the result of the work of Mrs. Chester
G. Bolton, a laywoman with an extra
ing situation, a substantial sign of
whose interest in nursing was the
gift of 100000 she made to Western
Reserve University to establish a
university school slos Of nursing a Bette, Better
educated nurses from such schools of
nursing as. has been established in
connection with Yale University and
Western Reserve University 1t is
to the interest of the public to have
them. If our problems become their
problems. theirs more than ever be-
come ours. And as no one spends
money without becoming deeply in
terested in the reasons for spending,
through helping to educate their
nurses and through developing com
munity nursing, all interested in
health from the bottom up instead of
the few on top trying to impress
health on the majority.
After all, no one is so interested
In whether a man lives or dies, is
healthy or sickly, as that man HIM
self.
mo greater proof that the nursing
profession as a whole has departed
from it's policy OF isolation and recog-
nizes its place as one Of the partners
in the general health movement can
be given than it's choice for the next
biennial convention. This will take
place in Atlantic City in 1926. and for
the first time in the history of nursing
in America, it's three foremost ma
tional organizations will meet other
leading health organizations in a
great Joint convention. SO the public
and the professions Fundamentally
concerned with health will join to-
gether in common cause which indeed
means a new era in the United
States"

MELLON PLOT TO DEFEAT
BONUS ALLEGED BY LEGION

observation-disclosures that employees
of corporations which. he said, are
still known as the Mellon interests
were being coerced into writing letters
to members of congress in opposition
to a soldiers bonus. were made in an
address here by John r. Quinn, ma
tional commander of the American Le-
gion, before the National Press club.
He further asserted that through these
channels the Mellon fortune is being
used in part" to pormote a paid prop
uganda" against the bonus.
Secretary Mellon, replying to the
charge, said he knew nothing about
any activities of corporations known
as the Mellon interests engaging in a
campaign against the soldiers bonus.
Mr.. Mellon added that he had not con-
tributed a penny to any such activity.

National Guard GroDing
at Rate of 1900 a Month

At the present time the National
Guard has an aggregate strength Of
10000 men. which is increasing at
the rate of 1,S0O n month. In the win
ter months the increase is slow, but
just prior to the training season this
increase is greatly augmented. By
June 80. 1924, the bureau expects 49,
600 lei to be enrolled in the guard,
and by June 80, 1925, 1t is expected the
National Guard will number 100000
men, and in 1925 average 10000.
A study reveals the fact that the 1925
estimate of S30,577 $40, which is al
lowed by the budget bureau, is not suf-
icient to provide for the training and
activities of these 10000 men during
the fiscal year Of 1925. Although only
an Increase of S763,SOO for all National
Guard activities allowed by the budget
bureau over the 1924 appropriations,
the strength Of the National Guard
will be increased over this period by

CONGRESS TO PROBE
RAILROAD LAND GRANT
Charge that Northern Pacific Land
Bonus Exceeds Reason Brings
on Senatorial Quiz

Washington.-A complete investiga-
tion of the federal government land
grants to the Northern Pacific Rail
way company is planned by congress
sional leaders. 1t probably will be
conducted by a joint committee of the
house and senate.
Lenroot of the house and senate pub
lie lands committees are comforting
on the subject, with a view to agree
ment as to procedure before inquiry
resolutions are pressed.
Probably the first action by con.
gress will be adoption of the resolu-
ton sponsored by the agriculture and
interior departments and directing the
secretary of the interior to defer adj
jCstments of the Northern Pacific
claims and to withhold the issuing of
any additional patents on lands
claimed by the road pending inquiry.
The railway company is claiming an
additional 3,GO0,OO0 acres of lands in
the national forests in Montana and
Washington under its. grants of more
than half a century ago. The claim
is contested by the agriculture depart
ment which contends that the COM
pany has received more land than it
was entitled to under the two acts of
congress.

Telephone Girls Die in Flames

Andulusia, Ala.-Two sisters, Misses
Edna and Maude Donaldson, met death
in a fire which in early morning Quilted
the Knox building where they were
employed as telephone oprators. 1t
lis believed they were suffocated by
smoke.
Miss Edna Donaldson sacrificed her
life, officials think, in turning in an
alarm. Hell sister, who was her guest,
died by her side. The loss of the
building, a jewelry store, and office, Is
estimated at $4,000.

Seek Data on a
Amount of Game Killed

) L dnesota and New York were pio-
neer states in ~inaugurating systems to
ascertain the amount of game killed
each year. Today a score or more of
the state game departments r striv-
Ing to collect this important data. The
compilation of such data gives a very
good idea of game conditions in the
different states. By reading the tabu-
lated results from the census of game
killed you can also arrive at a pretty
accurate conclusion as to the efficiency
Of the game departments of these
states in years gone by.
From a Denver dispatch we learn
that II is estimated that 600 deer were
killed in Colorado last year. In the
same paper a report from New
Jersey that $50 Virginia deer were
killed in that state the past season.
When you compare the rea of Colo
RADIO and New Jersey. when you think
Of the difference in density of popula-
ton and also consider the mount of
territory in each suitable for deer. you
cannot help but realize that Colorado
has been negligent in the past In the
care Of her game.

Know Your Arkansas

Wherever there are mountains in
Arkansas there is more or less iron.
Fully one-fourth the entire area Of
Arkansas is impregnated with these
deposits. Biologists have examined
the state quite thoroughly to deter
mine the value of its iron ores. All
report that it Is either of a low grade
or the deposit is too small in area for
profitable development. In Randolph
and Lawrence counties there is a very
good grade Of iron ore, but it is infer
iOr in quality to that now mined in
other states. Should a process be dis
covered by which low grade iron ores
can be marketed profitably this will be-
come great industry TO Arkansas.
Wherever chemical analysis has been
made of Arkansas mountain spring
waters the iron content is large, which
indicates the iron deposits extend TO
the very base of the mountains. The
presence of iron is also discernible in
Crowley's Ridge in eastern Arkansas
through heavy strain in the glass sand
strata of this extended elevation. I'm
I'll recent years no data was filed with
the state by prospectors, showing the
formation Of the earth penetrated by
their drills, and in recent years there
has been little mineral development in
the mountain ranges, consequently
what prospecting has been done is of
no geological value to the state. When
these prospectors were searching for
certain minerals they paid no attention
to others they encountered. There is
no doubt that iron in commercial guam
titles and Of high grade exists in Ar
kansas, but its presence will not he
