ONLY TRAINED NURSES TO
BE TAKEN INTO SERVICE
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 10.—
For the average American woman
who wants to help her country in
this war by going to the front ps
nurse there is no hope of her ever
realizing her wish.
Only graduate trained nurses are
chosen by the. American Kcd Cross
for war hospital service. And nur
ses’ aids are also specially trained
and chosen with the extremest care.
In previous wars, women nurses
!
i
were not infrequently seen on the
battle field.
In war today they never get any
closer to the front then the base
hospital, which generally is out of
sound of ‘he cannonading. The ma
chine gun and the barrage of mo
dern warfare has forced the retire
ment of women into safer fields.
For the first time in the country’s
history the United States is sending
to the front a modern hospital equip
merit. Uncle Sam sick and wounded i
in France will receive as good care
as they could get in any hospital ir
the United States. The best surge- (
ons and the best nurses in the coun
try are going with the troops.
When the American Red Cross
was organized in 1905 the prin
ciple was adopted that not merely
trained nurses hut nurses of char
acter and experience vouched foi
by recognized hospitals could he en
rolled in the Red Cross service.
She receives onfy $jiO per month
while in service. Her hours of work
at the base hospital are irregula*
but mostly long.
General Pershing's contingent
probably will be served by army
nurses who were on the Mexican
border.

DECORATED FOR RRAVERY
NO ONE KNOWS WHY
LONDON, June 10 (By Mail).-—
Commandor Gordon Campbell, my
sterious hero of the British navy,
leaped TOO junior naval officers in
promotion, became a member of
the Distinguished S rviee Order and
ivas decorated with the \ ietoria
Cross in less than a year and a
half. Yet, with a storm raging
around his secret career, he is
bound by naval ethics not to tell
publicly how he won either his pro
motion or the high honors bestowed
by King George.
Curiosity started mildly, but
when Campbell and the Admiralty
remained silent, the demand for in
formation reached the proportion
of a public uproar. Campboll is not
criticized, exactly; the public really
wants a chance to sing his praises.

Well, we’re mixed up in the war and we’re going the limit
until we win out. Our boys are oing to France—we’ll be fight
ing in the trenches, in the air and on the sea. But what are we
going to do about it at Home here?
Are we going to break down and sob about it or we going
to buck up and look tor the silver lining in the dark cloud.
Over in France, the farmer is digging and hoeing ou tin
fields while stray shells occasionally burst near him, but he does
out pay any attention to them—just keps on a-digging anu
a-lioeing.
Freinds, dont let the old farmer in France have anything
on us—.let’s just keep on digging and hoeing no matter what
happens; that’s the best thing for the soul and business that I
know of.

A high official of the --.imiralty
today assured the United Press that
Campbell’s achievements and r.rave
ry during the war deserve every ray
of honor tuned upon him. When
jthe war is over the people may
know what he did and how he did
it, but for the time being his deeds
must remain behind the veil.
Just recently his name appeared
in the Court Circular as the recipi
ent of the Victoria Cross, highest
of all honors for sheer bravery, so
Campbell must have found sorie
thing more exciting than the com
mand of the Bittern.

LOCAL ITEMS.
Small supplies are coming in for
Nome storekeepers. They expect
prices to dro] it is stated by one
man, and pending this decline t’ney
are holding out a while. One steam
ship man says that this is a mis
take in his estimation; that not only
are prices generally not likely to
drop hut that in addition it orders
are postponed local merchants may
discover considerable difficulty in
getting Their orders filled. This is
not only very possible but highly
probable.
COAL SCARCE
Bl'KNOS AIRES, JULY 7.—Coal
is so scarce in Argentina that the
dredging of the country’s navigable
rivers and of Buenos Aires harbor
has practically been suspended. This
is a particularly serious matter here,
as it was necessary originally to
deepen the local harbor to permit
the entrance of large vessels and
a constant continuation of dredging
is required to prevent it from re
filling. The newspapers are urging
the government to keep the di edges
working off Buenor Aires, at least,
at almost any cost.
