itary Status for Army Nurses

By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24. That tha ! Hospitals, and other army hospitals

army school of nursing will soon be made an integral part of the army or ganization is the hope of Major Julia Stimson, superintendent of the army nurse corps. The nurse corps believes in preparedness for service in peaCe or an

entire emersency. And preparedness, from

. me yoiut 01 view 01 ne corps, means

a training school for nurses, corrcs-

spason. No verv ' lares sales were

staged but each particular sale as i pondlDg ln a generai way With th

own angle. Despite the condition of the roads a great many farmers were present to bid and in every instance the friends and neighbors turned out

to make the sale a "go. And it is mighty lucky that this spirit of neighborliness and friendship prevails on such occasions. As one farmer remarked: "It helps a lot to see your neighbors and friends swarming all over the place on sale day, even if prices are lower than you hoped for." This is especially true when the rain is falling and the air is chill, or when snow banks the roadways and it is blowing a freezing gale, as is so often the case. In our experience we have learned that the weather-god is no respecter of farm sales' days and a whole lot of farmers will agTee in this. The New Westvitle Sale. The members of the Friends' church at New Westville, Ohio, staged a community sale in that town, on Thursday. They took the whole country-side into iheir confidence, weeks in advance; told everybody and his wife and family what their plans were, and just why they wanted to - raise a million dollars on Feb. 23. 1922. Did they get the money? Certainly, or at least all they needed, and enough is always a plenty. The sale is over and the goods have been carted home, so why go into particulars. The assortment was entirely too large to specify, covering as it did a hundred human wants in a

.farm community. There was so much to sell that it was thought best to have three auctioneers handy, said salesmen being, Schwing, Grable and Austerman, well known in the Eaton and t'amden districts.

; Good Things to Eat. - If you have ever attended a community sale at New Westville, or any large "doings" at that church, you 'will remember the dinner. It was a "good dinner, just as the dinner served on Thursday proved to be. What did they have to eat, sez you? WTell, to begin with, there was chicken, creamed chicken and chicken gravy, mashed potatoes, the rich and creamy kind, hiich as our grandmothers served and which you even yet sometimes read about in cook books. And pickles and 'flaw and pies. Why there were more kinds of pie than there are commandments in the Bible, if one took time to count them. Was the dinner a suct ress? It was, and at last reports about "50 people were testifying to that fact. Now, we are not going to tell you what the autos brought, nor how many cords of wood were sold by sample, or what the top hog sold for nor who

bought the carpet weaver, etc. Perish .the thought. But we will tell you who ;provided and served the dinner, genrtle reader, as you may wish to patronize these famous cooks and charming .hostesses on another occasion. The Ladles' Who Served. The women of the Ladies' Aid of the church who provided the dinner and who were present to serve were: Mrs. J." T. Cox. Mrs. Jerry McCarty. Mrs. Jacob Ketron, Mrs. Earl Maddock, Mrs. Thomas Ammerman, Miss Irma Kuth, Miss Jennie Kuth, Mrs. Helen Cox, Mrs. Mary Lancaster, Mrs. Will Banham, Mrs. Roy Cail. Miss Anna Cail, Miss Hazel Cail, Miss Florence Laird, Mrs. Myrtle Ray, Mrs. Riley Hubbard. Miss Lavina Breese, Miss Gladys Ray, Mrs. Linnie Ray, Mrs. William Arnold, Miss Fern Banham, Mis. Edna Campbell. Mrs. M. C. Stegall. Mrs. Laura Shefrer, Mrs. J. L McWbinney. Mrs. Carl Norris, Mrs. G. A. Laird, Mrs. Stanley Cail. Mrs

Frank Wehrley. Mrs. Frank Smelser, Mrs. Elijah Ballenger, Mrs. John Watts. Mrs. B. F. Wehrley and Mrs. Blanche Myers. . . . . Townsend-Kempton Sale. The Kempton farm, on the Williamsburg pike, three miles north of Cenlerville was th,e scene of the J. F. Town.send and F. E. Kempton sale, on Thursday. It was principally a live : tock sale and the net was $2,200. The top cow, with calf at side, sold for S0. No horses were put up, but a tine lot of pigs found eager buyers fit worth the money prices, or a litt'? better. There were 65 head in the pens, including 8 brood sows, which brought from $35 to $45 for top. Two lots of oats were on offer, and '400 bushels of the best brought up to 50 cents. A small lot of corn was taken by John Townsend at 60 cents. Al-

point.

We have Buch a school, but it exists only by order of the secretary of-war.

This may be a permanent enough existence, but it has an indefinite sound. Congress is to be asked, therefore, to give this important school a mlitary status so that it may be a part of the army and so that the student nurses may have the relative rank of cadets instead of the status of civilian employes of the medical department of the army. ' Until the recent war the army maintained a small standing corps of nurses in time of peace and when it needed large numbers, recruited them from the Red Cross nursing service. But during the World war the army opened its own training school to fit women for service, and it proved a successful venture. The first class of 500 young women wrere graduated last June. They served during the training at Walter Reed and Letterman General

bert Hindman cried the sale and L. E. Kinsey made the. settlements, assisted by Charles Bond, who clerked for the

sale. A very fair crowd was in at

tendance. Boston Community Sale. The people of Boston township r-u

on another community sale on Thursday afternoon, following a dinner and basket ball game, in which Boston showed its metal beating Smithfield by a 17 to 4 score. The star offering of the collection was a team of bay mares, put up by Myron Davenport, and which Raymond Druley fancied $310 worth. A number of implements, a cow or two and a good bunch of

I hogs went under the hammer, also

some miscellaneous goods of various kinds. Druley and Ell's were the auctioneers. A lot of corn sold up to CI cents and oats brought 40 cents. . Nathan Starr found a horse that suited him and paid $85 for a permit to take it home. The toatl of the sale was not given but it was reported satisfactory.

in this country, and in that way ren

dered valuable service. , - The school of nursing can not use all of its graduates in ordinary times, but those who are not needed go out well trained to give service in civilian fields. Some of tbe army nurse graduates have gone into the newest lino of nursing, public health work. Others have gone into private hospitals, homes, institutions, and factories. There is need for every one of them, for there are never enough nurses graduated from the first class schools, it seems. It is because of this great

need for well trained nurses and because it is an economy to the government to get its nursing done partly by students as most hospitals do that the army school of nursing ex pects- to continue. Schools in East and West. The school is really two schools. Walter Reid hospital in this city takes the greater part of the students, but to make it easier for western girls to take the course, traning also is given

in San Francisco in the Letterman general hospital. It Is interesting to visit the school at Walter Reed. You go with the vague idea, perhaps, that first aid is the prominent subject in an army nurse's course. You would not. be surprised to find one of the demonstration rooms fitted out like a camp, with dummies dressed in khaki to be used as models for dressing imaginary wounds. You find, however that there is very little of the emergency atmosphere in the school. Hospital and transportation facilities for wartime nursing have been developed so highly during

the late war that the army nurse can count on having practically the same apparatus as the nurse in any civilian hospital. Nor is the army nurse taught only the technique needed n treating battle cases. She goes through the same course of training that the civilian nurse does. From diet in communi cable diseases to public sanitation, the various kinds of thearapy, hospital architecture oral hygiene, and Indus

trial and school nursing run tbe sub

jects with which she is expected to be

familiar when she is graduated. Knowledge of all these subjects may not be required in line of duty in the army, but the school fits its students for service anywhere. One of the instructors points out

with patriotic pride that, the army schools is one of the few schools of,

nursing in the country tnat is aDie 10 rnvpr tho nHr course recommended

by the league of nursing education.

, "The army can do this, saia xne nursft instructor, "because the stud

ents are on ward duty. less than in

most hospitals. And then, too, mere

are so many instructors irom me armv medical school who can be call

ed on to lecture for us.

Corps of Army Instructors. "Where the private hospital must depend upon a small faculty of doctors to give private lectures on all sorts of medical subjects, the army school can have a specialist In every subject from among the army doctors stationed at Walter Reed or at medical school. These doctors who lecture for us do so by army orders. It is part of their regular work. We have 25 of these instructors gfting lectures to one class in the school." Besides the unusual opportunity of studying with so many specialists, the army nurse student has an opportunity to visit and study in other hospitals.

There is no provision lor teacning puolic health nursing at Walter Reed, nor for mental nursing, nor for care of children nor maternity cases. For thRn Riihiects. the armv affiliates with

hospitals specializing in such cases.

Students spend at least a tnira , oi their three years in these other hospitals For nublic health nursing they

have been going to the famous Henry

Street Settlement in New York, and tor other subjects to New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and to St Elizabeth's, the government hospital for the insane, in Washington, D. C. One of the attractive features of the armv iitirso srhnnls is the ODnortunii V

for physical and cultural development. The recreational lectures and tha classes in basketry and other vocational subjects that are held for the soldiers at the hospital are open to the student nurses. At Walter Reed school last year a nature enthusiast took thet girls on outdoor trips in the spring and autumn months. Then there are basket ball, swimming and tennis, and gymnasium classes undoan army specialist in physical culture Major Stimson s enthusiastic about the army school. "We have never had any word of one of our graduates failing to pass a

state registration examination,' she says. "And at the last two examinations in California, out of 400 nurses, each time an army nurse came out on top. Qualification Standard High. "We keep the standard of the school high. Only high school graduates are admitted and we have many normal school and college girls. These col lege graduates are allowed credit fjr nine months' work, which brings the course for them down to a little more than two years. We are starting another class in March, and although no general announcement has been mado

we already have received a number of J a, r-,.11, . i . 1 !

applications, oim iuiuiuer ciass wvi enter in October." Miss Stimson receives many interesting letters from the girls who want to be nurses, and sometimes from their

mothers. One mother wrote from a western farm to know all about the school at Letterman. She wanted to know is someone would meet her daughter and if she could go to church on Sunday and if ther e would be someone to take an interest in her. - "We could give satisfactory answers

to all her questions," says Miss Stimson, "so she sent her daughter. I have a recent letter from this mother saying how much the girl likes her studies and how glad she is that her daughter will have a profession in which she is interested. The fine thing about this case is that the girl has

aptitude as well as enthusiasm. Right

here with the mother's letter I have a report from the chief nurse at the

Letterman school in which she speaks particularly of the good work this girl is doing. "We are interested in every girl in the school. It is partly because of the

advantages which would come to the girls that we want the school to be a part of the army. The student nurse who becomes ill or is injured under the present system is not able to draw insurance or disability allowance from the veteran's bureau because she is a civilian."
