GRADUATE NURSES
 ASKED 10 RETURN
Services on Part-Tinle Schedule Would Aid in
 Present Emergency

In an effort to relieve the acute shortage of nurses engaged in hose pital work, to permit student nurses to attend classes more frequently as well as to permit graduates to enter the armed forces Q special appeal has been directed to registered nurs- es now engaged in business or as housewives are believed available to lend their services for at least four hours Q day for one day Q week and help meet the emergency. They are not asked to work as volunteers. They will be paid on an hourly basis and provided with meals.
 The unusual appeal Is outlined in the following letter issued by Miss Lenore Tobins, R. Nv director of School of Nursing Service at the Waterbury hospital:
 "Dear Registered Nurse:
 We at home are waging Q bat- tie to overcome the nurse short- age in the hospitals. Members of our staff are being called into service every day with no one to replace them.
 Of course no nurse should neglect her family or home, but have you considered how much you can give by coming into the hospital for four hours c day, even one day week9 By doing this you relieve two or three Stu- dents for classes and help to re- lease graduate for the Armed Forces. At the same time you allow yourself to keep abreast with the advances in nursing technics. Do you know how to give Oxygen Therapy, Wangensteen Suctions, tidal drainage? Can you give a blood transfusion or figure Q dose of insulin? No one has any idea how this war will affect our future.
 If 1t is possible for you, do come in and work four hours day even for just one day each week. morning, afternoon, evening or night. We do not ask you to be a volunteer. We pay by the hour plus meals, while on duty, plus a lot of appreciation for filling a great need.
 We are Americans and members of a great profession, more needed now than ever before in history"

A ten years record was broken this year in Presbyterian giving also. Contributions by the s.67e churches totaled $47, ,442,7l7, on amount uHl- equaled since 1883. It is 92,6ez,el3 greater than the 444,75e, l04 contrib uted last year.
 The per capita giving of the church during the year, exclusive of six presbyteries in foreign missionary lands, was $2S.60. Last years per capita was $22.50.
 church members received during the year on profession of their Christian faith numbered 72072. Last year in the year ended March was o3,746. Members received on 31, 1942, the corresponding figure certificates of transfer from other churches this year are 5O,026, fig. ure that compares with last years 56,TtS.
 Besides the net colnmunicant membership of 2,05l, ,e6l, the church enrolls also 9,434 ordained ministers. Of these more than 455 are now in war service. In the Presbyterian church ministers are members not of local churches but of presbyteries.

 With local churches reported in every state of the union, the Pres- byterian church in the United States of America continues to cover the entire nation, as 1t has done since its formal organization early in the eighteenth century. Many of the local churches date from even be- fore that formal organization. Na- tionally the church is organized into 40 Synods and 27l Prebyteries, acc cording to the present statistics.
 Of the $47,442.7l7 listed above as contributed by the local churches, $3S, 1891 ,557 was used for local church and denominatlonal expenses.

 Christian Education (promotins educational work in churches schools, colleges and theological sem- inaries), $6I5,599.
 Pensions (relief and pensions to ministers, missionaries and their de" pendents), $l7l ,93l.
 Theological Seminaries Of the church, $86,44l. ...,
 American Bible Society, $33,341.
 federal Council of Churches, slO'" As2. -.
