By the Way
BETH BLAINE :

You've doubtless read about
the shortage of hospital person.
mel at the Glenn Dale Sana-
torium for tuberculosis and how
it will be utterly impossible for
the hospital to carry on without
help and at once. You may
have heard over the radio or
read in the local papers of the
intensive campaign being waged
for volunteers to take the ac-
celerated training course which
will prepare them for the work
they would do at Glenn Dale. At
least 300 volunteers are needed
and to date-we have to report
only a handful of women have
responded.
Statistics have proven that the
nursing technique now being
taught in the care of tubercu-
losis is so thorough that a woman
who has been taught it runs far
less risk of contracting the dis
ease from the patients she is
helping to nurse than she. would
perhaps in the course of her nor
NAL day. If you volunteer your
services for this important work
you will run no more risk of
contracting the disease than in
any other work you might
choose, for in doing this you are
taught how to protect yourself
from infection.
Saturday afternoon we visited
Mrs. Beryl Plumptre, who has
completed both the home nurs-
ing course and the special train
ing course for work at Glenn
Dale, and who, with a small
group of other volunteers, is
working as an aide at Gallinger
Hospital until there are enough
volunteers to warrant their be-
ing sent to Glenn Dale. A
slender, dark-haired, gray-eyed,
and very pretty young woman,
Mrs. Plumptre is the wife of the
Financial Attache of the Cana
dian Embassy, who is also direc-
tor Of the Washington Division
Of the Canadian Wartime Prices
and Trade Board. An Australian
by birth, she met her husband
when she was studying economics
at Cambridge when her husband,
an economist, was lecturing
there. The Plumptres have two
small children, girl and a boy,
and Mrs. Plumptre feels that in
stead of interfering with her care
OF her own children, the training
which she received in this special
course has helped her better to
protect their health and certain
ly she has two fine little speci-
mems to prove it.
If you want to help in this
urgent need 60 to the Volunteer
Office at 1850 Pennsylvania ave
