Officers of the navy are authorized by law to accept tho civil assistance of tho American Red Cross which has so capably fulfilled its humanitarian purpose and the preliminary enrollment of nurses has been turned over to that great organization." During the ten days' drive which began Monday every effort will be made; to induce every graduate nucHc who is-eligible for war service to enroll. Married nurses will be urged to return to practice or at least to give a few hours a day to hospital or visiting service or to work in dispensaries, eliet kitchens or public health activities. Graduates of high schools and col leges will be encouraged to become students in military or civilian pitals in order to free as many nurses as possible for army or navy service.

German youths no longer rush to tho colors with tho enthusiasm that marked Immobilization of 1014, according to an article in the Irlin Vossrsche Zei-tung, telling of the wartime impairment of the German educuli n.al system. "The spirit of voluntary service whieih at the beginning of the war revealed itself in its fairest aspect has now disappeared," says the article. "Everywhere we heac lamentations over tho increasing distaste shown for military servie-o." Scholastic standards in the public schools have fallen to low, it is oa'H, that "promotions no longer represent any definite standard of accomplishment." Scholastic efficiency has suffered considerably because pupils subsisting on war diets for lontf periods are found to be generally undernourished.

C. Brai.tcd, surgeon general of the U. S. navy, the following communication to the American Red Cross af tho beginning of its drive to enroll nurses for military and public service. "Never before in history has there been such a great opportunity for the nursing profession to come forward and render the greatest possible service to mankind in caring for the sick and wounded.

A largo number of nurses will be required, neit only immediately but for some time after the war has ended to nurse back to health and usefulness the maimed and injured who have suffered because of the enormous struggle now being wageel in Europe. The nursing profession of the country is called upon the same way as the medicnl profession to render the utmost service of which it is capable and a trained personnel is necessary for success.

Recent reports from commanding generals of certain army div'sions in-dicnii; that one of the fruitful causes of soldiers absenting them'selvi leave is the discouraging letter from home. Such letters frequently give alarming ami exaggerated reports of condit'ens surrounding the soldier's family, that some member is desperately ill, that all are starving or tli.it they are being in some way hurrassed. In instances such letters aveso preyed upon the minds of soldiers that they have absented themselves without leave to go home, only to find that conditions had been greatly exaggerated. Meanwhile, the seddier had been absent without leave a serious military offense.

They should be frequent, 'hojicfuk, cheerful, and appreciative of the Racritice that, he is making for bis country. Threy should be full of family iiieh'ents and clieorful home gossip.

They should protect lr'm from the trifling alarms and the small annoyance of everyday lire. should encourage him by giving full confidence that his family and bis friends stand behind hVn in tho great enterprise ho has undertaken. The value of such letters to soldiers Is beyond estimate. Vbe harm that discouraging letters fiorn homo dfi to him is clearly indicated by reporls at The Adjutant, General's office. Iforo are home extracts from recent reports of division coiiiinacders "I find, that many of the families of the men write to them of unsatisfactory conditions at liomei, sickness of and bow much various members of tho family wish to see the soldier.

The American Red Cross is having stupendous demands made upon its department of nursing. The chief object of this campaign is to awaken the public and physicians as well, to a sense of their responsibility in supporting this department in meetini: the needs of our military hospitals.

They are asked to release nurses not desperately needed and to aid them in every way possible to give this service Without too great a sacrifice, instead, as is often the case, of creating difficulties for them. We have only a sufficient number of nurses eligible for service in this country to answer this call of our government, and it will mean that every nurse who can must prepare for military service-before the end of this year. This division, of which Ford county is a part, has been asked to enroll 2,500 nurs: before January. Thij is more difficult than raising our share of the $100,000,000 War Fund, for nurses are scarcer than dollara. The public must be prepared to release private nurses to as great an extent as possible, even though it involves sacrifice no sacrifice is too great to.

make for the men who at fighting our battles, and the more men we send overseas, the more nurses we need to take care of them. Your chapter can do its share by making your community realize that the problems which the war has brought the Red Cross Nursing liepartment are national problems, failure or success to meet the de- Patriotic Shortening.
