WAYS TO F|L|P|N0S.
Mrs. de Veyra, Well Known
Here, Improves Health
Conditions.
BY the Associated Press.

MANIAA. May 8.--Mrs. Sofia Reyes
de Veyra, wife OF the former resident
commissioner at Washington. takes
much pride in being the pioneer in
he work Of teaching Filipino women
To he of service in improving health
and sanitation conditions in the Philip
pine Islands.
In 1907, in conjunction with an
American woman. Miss Mary f. Cole
man. Mrs. de Neyra organized the
first training school for nurses, To-
day there are nearly 900 Filipino
trained nurses in the islands. who are
distributed throughout virtually every
province Of the archipelago. She also
has taken great interest in the or
eanization of some 400 women's clubs
in the Philippines. all of which seek
to uplift the native women.
While still a young teacher she was
instrumental in starting the first dor
mitory for girls at Bacolad, occidental
negro province.
Anxious to Help People.
| Mrs. de Veyra was educated in a
| private school in Iloili. which for
| more than 40 years has been conduct
| ed by the five sisters of the chief
| justice of the Philippine supreme
i court, Ramon Avencena. Her instruc-
tion at the school was entirely in
| Spanish. but in order to learn Eng
| lsh she exchanged her Spanish for
| English instruction with an American
| teacher shortly after American occu.
| patton.
Six years residence in Washington
while her husband was resident COM
missioner gave her an opportunity to
| acquire much Information which she
is now employing for the benefit of
her own people. She became the head
| of the domestic science department of
| Centre Escolar de Senoritas, school
OF girls. in which an American cook.
ing outfit is used in demonstration.
Anxious to Help ePOple.
| If can be of some assistance in
teaching my people TO eat proper food
and in building up the health and
| sanitary condition of my country, I
shall feel that I have done something
really worth while" said Mrs. de
| Neyra.
| She is a strong believer in woman
suffrage, and hopes that the recon-
| mendation of Gov. Gen. Wood to the
! legislature for the passage of a suf.
frace bill will be acted upon favorably
! Already Filipino women have
| equality with men in everything eX-
| cept the ballot" declared Mrs. de
Neyra. When they marry they so
into partnership with their husbands.
While the men handle the work and
employees. the women attend to the
| finances, act as cashiers. pay the
workers, and oversee much of the
| business. Several Filipino women are
practicing lawyers. and there are a
| number of successful women
| physicians"

HON. GEORGE T. KERSEY WILL
BE NOMINATED TO MAKE
THE RACE FOR THE LEGIS-
LATURE FROM THE THIRD
SENATORIAL DISTRICT OF
ILLINOIS TUESDAY, APRIL 10

Two years ago some Of the slick and
scheming politicians, who are always
afraid to show their hands or cards in
the dark, residing in the Third Sen
atorial District, shuf1ed or manipulated
their cards IN such a manner that the
final result was that Mr.. Kersey was
defeated at the election in 1924 by a
small margin.
From that time to the present, Mr.
Kersey has been busily engaged in
getting himself together and strength
ening his political fences all along the
line and he is now in good shape to
trample under his political feet all those
who are bitterly opposed to his re-
nomination for member of the Legisla-
ture of Illinois.
Several years ago, Mr.. Kersey was
selected as the Republican committee
man of the Third Ward, and its Re-
publican organization now has mem
bership of more than eight thousand
and it is great political power in that
ward, under the leadership of Mr.. Ker-
sey, and it will accomplish a great
work at the Forthcoming primaries.
Mr.. Kersey, with a great credit and
undying honor to himself and to all the
people Of Illinois, served one term in
the Legislature Of this state and in
every way he made that term count.
He secured an appropriation and the
