Logoff Soldier Takes English Bride
PAOl FIVt
iulf Skl W. R. Outlaw, Jr., a sou
^ W. R Outlaw of rout® 2, Lugoff,
was inducted into service Feb.
{2,1M2. and who has been stationed
b England a greater part of the war,
pred that country so well that, next
the States, be would like to live
there.
Probably the real reason is that on
f^, S4,1945, Bob became the husband
pretty Mary Madeline Page, daugh-
of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Page of
|jiywnod Gardens, Middlesex, Eng.
lod. The wedding took place in St.
John's Catholic church there, the
BsT. Father Fairy officiating.
In a letter to his fathier laat June,
Sgt Outlaw described . his wedding
also a vivid and dramatic story
gf being under attack from bombs
lod rockets.
He paid a fine tribute to the Eng-
Ish people, declaring that they were
so fine and courteous that he forgot
all about being homesick.
“I was pretty critical of them to
begin with naturally, as they have
their faults the same as we do, but
little by little I began to understand
their mannerisms, customs, their way
of life and I became reconciled to the
fact that it was merely a matter of
understanding them. They are okek
and I admire many things alxMit them,
to numerous to mention."
Since Dec. 6 of last year Sgt. Out-
law has b^n stationed at St. Ger
maine in France. This is about 12
miles from Paris.
"We have a pretty good setup here
but nothing to compare with the one
we had in England. Next to home
there is no place I would tather be
than back there. Not only because
Madelaine is there but because I love
that place."

Why home nursing?
Despite the end of the war, the
doctor-nurse shortage will not be
noticeably relieved for some time to
come. Hence, every American woman
must be ready and able to help her
own overworked doctor when illness
strikes.
Gobal warfare has meant over a
million combat • casualties to U. S
forces—<uid there will be more. Many
of these men will need long and com
plicated care. They must be restored
to health before doctors and nurses
can be returned to civilian practice
The acute shortage of nursing per
sonnel is felt by hospitals as well
as by doctors, and has a direct bear
ing on the necessity of impressing
home makers with the valuable part
they caa play In protecting health
by taking a home nursing course.
The American Red Cross is aiming
at a goal of 3,000,000 persons trained
in home nursing. The goal is high,
but the need la great.
The death of Enizabeth Anne Rich
ardson of Mishawaka, Ind., American
Red Cross staff assistant who died
in a recent airplane crash in France,
raises to 55 the number of Red Cross
workers who have died in oversees
service in World War 2.
