NURSES

The highest calling to which a
woman may aspire professionally,
we think, is that of nursing, es-
pecially if she is fitted for it. Her
tenderness, her sympathy, her ma
ternal instinct all combine with her
gentleness, thoroughness and per-
sistence to restore health to the i'll,
to bring back from the shadow of
death those who, but for her minis
trations, would enter it never to
emerge again.
There is called to mind that very
sentimental verse which runs like
this: "Oh woman, in our hours of
ease, uncertain, coy and hard to
please: when pain and anguish rack
the brow, ministering angel thou"
Somebody deleted the second
couplet, and substituted this one
from an entirely different poem:
"But seen too oft, familiar with
your face, we first endure, then pity,
then embrace" Either of these
statements applies to the nurse, for,
as statistics revealed at the Ohio
hospital association convention
show, and as most of us have OBJ
served, many nurses marry their
men patients or others and this mat
ing seriously deletes, annually, the
supply of sick-room attendants.
The life of the nurse is not an
easy one, figured as one will. She
must go into training for three
years. The successful nurse must
be attractive, if not actually beauti-
full, she must be trim and neat she
! is required to give up pleasures for
duty, she must never let go and lose

THE INVISIBLE SCEPTER

When George VI is inducted
through the coronation ceremonies
to be Britain's king he will be pre-
sented with a crown and scepter
that are visible, tangible, weighable
and of ascertainable intrinsic worth.
Further, he and his queen will be
seated upon a throne that can be
measured, weighed and valuated.
But these visible and tangible
things are but emblems and symbols
of what are invisible and intangible
and therefore real. For, after
George has been proclaimed king he
will represent ideals, traditions, pur-
poses and order that have been held
by Britishers to be the most val
liable things in the empire. He will
be honored by being put into the
royal position and it is to be expect
ed that he, in turn, will honor the
throne.
But the vast pOmp, ceremonial
and extravaganza that go with each
coronation will be not particularly
with the purpose in mind to honor a
particular individual. What is be-
hind all the dignity and wealth of a
British coronation is that the crown
and not the visible one at that
may be honored, venerated and
highly exalted. The incumbent of
the British throne at any partic-
ular time may be fine and widely
esteemed parsonage or he may be,
on the contrary, supercilious, vain
and naughty, or of questionable
moral character. The coronation

are no longer living under frontier

has given way to organized groups
with a sense of common interest.
There have evolved group stand
ards of fair practic, enforced by
public opinion. Good ethics is rec
ognized as good business. The un-
derlying philosophy has changed.
A satisfied customer is firm

true that in a business transaction
one man gains what the other man
loses, no transaction is considered
legitimate unless both gain.
businessmen no longer are
ashamed of their vocation. They
take a pride in the particular eco

ILLINOIS GIANT

Barnum, the great circus show
man of other years, once laid down
rule. To be a giant, he said, a
man must be at least seven feet, two
inches tall.
In Alton, Illinois, last week, bet
tering such minimum requirements
by more than foot Robert Wad-
low celebrated his 10Th birthday.
His height, eight feet, five and a
half inches. His weight 450 pounds.
Young Wadlow, college fresh
man, has not stopped growing. The
tallest person ever recorded au-
thentically in this country, he has
an appetite in keeping with his pro-
portions. Daily, he consumes food
equivalent to about 5000 calories--
more than twice that required by
grown-ups of average size.
The Illinois giant, towering far
above all members of his family, is
giant for one reason only-over-
activity of his pituitary gland. This
gland small, oval and reddish-gray
is attached to the brain of all hui
man beings and controls growth.
When it is overactive, it causes
giantism. Pathfinder.

Factory Workers Highest Since 80

The success which has attended
the efforts of American industry 70
reduce unemployment is revealed by
the latest report of the department
of labor showing that factory en-
ployment in February was the high
est since December, 1929
Despite the current epidemic or
strikes, manufacturing and non-man-
ufacturing industries added 215,OOO
employees to their payrolls between
January 5 and February Is, the re-
port shows. This is more than
enough to offset the seasonal decline
after the year-end holidays, it was
pointed out.
Employment rose 1,550,000 be-
tween 1886 and 1887, the report
showed. Among the industries show
ing the greatest gain in employment
were iron and steel, agricultural i'm
plements, machine tools, radios and
monographs, typewriters, aircraft,
automobiles, knit goods, mems and
womens clothing, paper and pulp,
paints and varnishes.

her temper. No wonder, then, that
many Of them escape what may, un-
der circumstances, become drudgery,
to marry a patient or some other
man, and maintain their own homes.
If they don't marry. they grow old,
and nurses after middle age are no
longer in such great demand as IN
their younger years. Hence the
dearth Of nurses who are Al in the
popular mind.
There are 1000 fewer student
nurses in Ohio than 10 years ago,
though $4,000 hospital beds are be-
ing added annually.

will be as splendid and as dignifeI
in one case as the other.
For an age-long system Of gov
ernment. civilization centuries old,
ideals that have been cherished in
British breasts for many genera
tions will be given a renewed al
legiance, the acclaim of all good
citizens and the fitting honors which
these things deserve. OF these the
crown, scepter and throne are mere
and wooden idols are the symbols
set up to remind worshipers of cer-
tain gods that the divinities are
present, powerful and to be feared
and reverenced.
In America we present no crown
or symbol and we seat no executive
upon royal throne. but, in our
inaugural ceremonies we present the
invisible crown of American ideals
and the scepter of American po-
litical and governmental tradition.
In Great Britain the divinity that
doth hedge a king" no longer is
! there. The doctrine that the king
can do no wrong has disappeared al
most wholly. 1t is the king who
wears the crown, but it is the prime
minister who holds the power.
In America, on the contrary, the
power of the president always is
very real and very potent. Not only
has he the constitutional authority
with which he is justly clothed, but
! he also is leader of his political par
! ty, and is expected to try to bring
that party's program into realiza-
ton. He has legislative veto pow
! err, too, and, what is his most val
liable weapon, or scepter, If one will,
is his power of making political ap-
/ pointments.
! Back of it all, whether in Britain
or America, are the heart, the hope,
the aspiration, the dreams and the
determination of the people. We
{ are all Of such childish imagination
/ that it is difficult for us at times to
visualize the intangible, and the in
I visible, hence we must have ready
to hand and eye the concrete repre-
sentatives of the intangible and the
invisible. In Britain there are the
throne, crown, scepter and Union
Jack. In America we have fewer
symbols The American eagle is
one; certainly the Stars and Stripes
are an emblem which represents it

BUSINESS OFFERS FUTURE FOR
YOUNG MAN OF IDEALS

Can a young man become a busi-
nessman and keep his ideals? Are
there places in business for those
who are not ard-boiled These
are questions which face many a
graduate this spring. Edgar L. Heer-
nance, author and economist, an
swers them in the Rotarian Maga-
zine.
''Not only is there a place for
idealism in business, provided it IS
of the practical, intelligent type, !"
says Mr.. Heermance, "but also there
is not much place for anything else.
The hard-boiled rule-of-thumb type
is giving way to the engineering
type. The demand is for manage
ment, and management in it's var
ious aspects is about the most ideal
istic calling I know of. The man
who thinks only in terms of profit
or salary will make very poor busi-
nessman."
"Thirty years ago." he reflects,
"the answer probably would have
been No Business and idealism
were kept in separate compartments.
The typical businessman drove a
sharp bargain. A competitor was an
enemy. Customers were victims to
be plucked. Men did things in busi-
ness they would not have thought
of doing in private life. There is
the story of the old deacon who call
ed down to his clerk: Sam, have you
sanded the sugar' yes, SIR Have
you watered the vinegar?' Yes,

Over 1000 County
Farms Are Signed

Practically all the farms have been
inspected under the 1887 Agricul-
tural Conservation program for which
a card requesting inspection has been
received at the county office. Thus
far, there have been over 1000 farms
inspected.
A few farmers have the idea be-
cause of the fact they signed up last
spring is all that is necessary in order
to have their farm inspected; how
ever, according to the rules of the
program, no farm will be inspected
unless request for inspection card
has been received at the county office.
The county committee would like
to announce that if any farmer wants
his farm inspected and if it has not
yet been inspected, he should see
his community committeeman or
write the county office for a request
for inspection card November l is
the deadline for inspecting farms in
the state.
Each farmer will be given a chance
to 60 over his map and see that the
acreages are right and that the pro-
per entries have been made for each
field. This work will start some time
in the latter part of the month.

Local Trucker Is
Killed In Crash
Near Cass Lake
Companion is Injured but
has Recovered From
Frightful Experience.

Harris Weinberg of Askov and Lake

Tony Ankrum, son of MIR. and Mrs.
James Ankrum of Sandstone, was in
Jured when the large truck in which
they were riding left the road near
Cass Lake early Friday morning. Mr..
Weinberg was crushed by the tipped
truck cab and young Ankrum was
Knocked unconscious. For about two
days the latter was in a daze. but
has recovered now.
1t is not definite as to how the
accident happened but the atmos-
phere was not clear, due to a fog.
and this may have caused Mr.. Wen
berg, who was driving, to leave the
road. According to a statement by
MIR. Ankrum, the driver had asked
him just before the accident if he
were awake and that is the last he
knew until some time after the crash
Weinberg was found crushed over
the steering wheel of the truck and
1t is thought that life was extinct
Immediately. His funeral was held
at Lake Lillian Wednesday.
MIR. Weinberg was in partnership
IN the trucking business with Law
renee Nelson of Askov, and was about
81 years of age.
