Nurse
BY MARY BEARD
Director Nursing Service,
American Red Cross
Written for NEA Service


A young cadet nurse of my
acquaintance recently gave an
apt description of her first eX-
perience in trying to make a
bed with a stable patient in it.
She said, Il never saw SO much
person in one bed in my life"
BY the time she had accomplish
ed her objective she didn't
know which was the more eX-
hausted-she or the patient.
Her experience is typical Of
that of many amateur home
nurses. A large mass Of inert
flesh as presented by a helpless
body is very difficult TO lift or
move when the bed must be
changed, but it can be done by
organizing your material and
following a routine procedure.
First, collect the fresh bed
ding and place it on a chair near
the bed. Leave one pillow under
the patients head and remove
all others. Loosen the lower
sheet around the bed. Have the
patient draw up his knees; then
with one hand on the hip and
the other on the farther shoul-
der, draw him over on his side
facing you and as near to the
edge of the bed as it is safe to
move him.
Fold half of the top sheet

back over the sick person, out
OF the way, keeping him well
covered. Gather the lower sheet
along its entire length and tuck
il in close along his back. Lay
the,fresh lower sheet, folded
lengthwiSc, on the mattress with
the center fold in the middle of
the bed, with about eight inches
extra allowed at the top 10 fold
under the head Of the mattress.
Pleat about half of the lower
sheet lengthwiSe and place the
pleated portion as close as pos
sible 10 the soiled sheets. Tuck
the other alf of the fresh sheet
in well at the top, bottom, and
side. Lift the patients feet over
the gathered sheets, keeping his
knees fleXed and his body COW
cred, and turn him back onto
the fresh sheet.
Remove the Soiled sheet and
place it on newspaper on the
floor or in the laundry bag.
Smooth out the fresh sheet,
draw it tightly to remove wrink-
les, and tuck it in firmly at top,
bottom, and sides. Spread the
top sheet, tuck it in, then re-
place the pillows.

Mcfarland, 81, handsome young
Guadalcanal veteran, married
and with a Juvenile crime record,
was held for the killing.
Victims of two other murders
in two months were Mrs. Mar
garet Fitzwater, housekeeper
So, whose nude body was found
floating on a decorative lagoon
near War Departments great
Pentagon Building, and hand
some Frances Erickson, IS, mid
west architect, who was stabbed
TO death.
NEVER WALK ALONE
Omen moved in on the Fitz-
water case, because Of Fedora
Jurisdiction, and Gardner Holm
es, Sc, who lived in a shanty-
boat and found the nude body
floating near his anchorage, was
charged with that murder.
Frances Erickson's slayer has
Mt been caught. She took a
Sunday morning walk alone in
park, was stabbed by a Negro
who stole her purse, and gasped
his description before she died.
Her murder shocked the city
which, however, blamed it on
her neWness here. She didn't
know Washington women never
walk alone in parks, even in
broad daylight, because of past
rapes and murders.
Opinion remained divided on
the issue of safety or danger for
women here. Washington after
dark is crowdeN with service
men and girls; pick-ups are COM
mon-place.
The city is jampacked. Nearly
10000 girls and young women
live in dormitories and barracks,
with some supervision for those
out Of uniform, but not too
much; theory being they won't
stand Wet-nursing.
Police Chief Kelly believes
girls and young women are as
safe in Washington as any other
city, if they take care about
strangers and avoid out Of the
way spots. The War Department
says it has had proportionately
no more incidents" than the av-
erage girls college. The Civil
Service Commission wants to
know why teen age girls should

war offices, when their teen age
brothers and boy friends are
fighting out there on many
fronts.
But the three murders in two
months have shocked Washing
ton into steps for better protec-
ton in thousands of park acres:
more police, lights on after the
Pearl Harbor blackout, addition
al assignments on Navy shore
patrol and military police, and
a bill to be introduced in Con-
gress by Mr.. Hebert, which
would merge now separate city
and park police forces.

WASHINGTON - Three muir.
ders in two months have given
this wartime capital a case OF
filters and raised an issue hot
ter than war or politics: Is Wash.

women and young girls?
Mrs. Roosevelt, a congress
man, Washington's police chief
social workers and ministers
have taken sides, all with the
same objective-to protect wo'
men-but not agreeing how il
shall or can be done.
Mrs. Roosevelt and Rep. F. Ed

ents should prepare their daugh'
tiers to protect themselves by
telling them about evil as wei
as good. Police Chief Edward

A BROKEN-DOWN JALOPPY

1t was just a broken-down jaloppy we saw in a Glasgow
backyard. 1t had definitely seen better days. 1t was denied and
sway-backed. Once it had tires, but no more. Here and there
on its SCARED body were pasted labels and cryptic slogans.
We remember seeing this ancient vehicle in happier times
We have observed it turning corners at an alarming rate, rails
ing dust clouds. Sometimes it would be parked in front OF
some coke" emporium. More often than not, some youthful
partner in its dubious assets would be cranking it. If we re-
member rightly, it did have a wondrous horn that played a
vague and noisy tune, quite often heard on the midnight air.
Sometimes it was a source of annoyance. 1t was a symbol of
carefree youth of not so long ago.
Then we tried to remember some of the boys we used to see
in it or on it. One, we know, is a deck officer at sea, probably
puzzling over more serious problems of navigation than the
ialoppy required. Another is on a now-famous navy carrier.
Another, at little more than 10, has been around the world to
call at ports that are just names to older folks. One was on
the beaches of Normandy. One came back from the miasmic
swamps of a Pacific jungle with malaria.
All these boys have come to mans estate almost overnight,
into a hard, rought and d~eath-filed world. Many have had to
face crises more soul-trying than their elders ever did. And
they have done it like men. They have given their own answer
to some learned folks who thought the younger generation was
going to the dogs. To those former jaloppy owners we can say,
Men, you're doing all right.

WHAT'S IN 1T FOR ME?

Sen. Burton K. Wheelers question in a speech he made
here recently, Were our forefathers fighting to get a few more
dollars out of the treasury" was more than rhetorical.
1t reflected a condition in politics that we are going to have
to face in this years election and we had better be doing some
thinking about it.
Reduced to its simplest proportions the condition is this:
Powerful leaders of large blocks of voters, who say they have
those voters soidly controlled, are willing to trade votes to
certain candidates for special advantages and privileges. In
effect they say, whats in it for us?" and they will swing those
votes to the highest bidder. These leaders were in evidence both
at national and state Democratic conventions.
In return for certain concessions, which would give them a
voice in government out of all proportion to the interests of
our country and its great mass of unorganized voters, these
leaders are undertaking to elect a picked slate of candidates.
America has been threatened, in its history, with all sorts of
monopolies. We believe this monopoly of voting power, of
government by bloc and pressure, is one of the most dangerous
tendencies in many years. AS the senator said, we have all

SCHOOL OR "BIG MONEY!"

Many a teen-ager these days is torn between two thoughts
Shall he return to school or shall he stay out to work in the
big and "easy money jobs he sees on all sides. One answer is
provided in a statement by Gen. H. H. Arnold, commanding
the army air forces, who says:
1--WE of the armed forces urge every young man and woman
of pre-military age who has been filling a summer war job to
return to school this autumn. Such war work is important, but
your education has top priority. You will serve your country
best by making the most of your educational opportunities, for
this is not only a brave mans war-it is also a smart mans
war.
IF YOU plan to enter military service, you will find that
a good education offers the best assurance of progress and recog-
milton. In all branches of service, we need trained leaders, en-
gineers. scientists and specialists. And in the years to follow
victory we will need them even more, as our nation charts its
progress in the postwar world"
General Arnold is right. He might have added that in the
battle of life it is also the smart man and the trained man who
comes out on top. School is a long time investment that will
pay off in the years to come when high-paying, unskilled jobs
won't be growing on trees.

A SHOULDER BAG FOR MEN

&c. j. Doherty in Missoua County Tines
Why not popularize a shoulder bag for men, especially during the
months? I have difficulty managing without coat and vest
Normally my vest contains a little silver. cigaret papers, watch, cigaret
holder, pencils, matches toothpicks and notes. My coat carries my note
book. two pairs of glasses. package of cigares, package of smoking to-
bacco, letters, calendars, more matches and other oddities. One might
say: why not carry your junk in your trousers pockets?" But heres the
normal trousers load: big pack of keys, car keys IS well, pocket knife
bllfold, card case. handkerchief. box of matches. 1 can't get all the
stuff 1 carry in my coat and vest into my trousers pockets. Summer
finds mt looking for something, always something missing. Think how
handy a shoulder bag would be. Why should women be permitted to
monopolize such a convenience? If women can wear trousers, mems shirts
and hats, why shouldn't men wear shoulder bags? A man could go down
the street with but shorts, even bare-footed, and still carry everything
he needs. Let's change to less clothing and more shoulder bags.
