Just as it is necessary to have an army of men in France to win this war, so it Is necessary to have an army of women at home. This army of women is to be nurses; to care for their own families in sicknesp, their neighbors, the sick in our hospitals and our wounded soldiers who will be sent back to us. The government is calling for 25,000 young women to take the nurses' training and fill the places of the many who have gone overseas and the many more' who will go in the near future. It should be the ambition of more than that number of young women in our country to enter such a high and no ble calling. To better prepare the women of our county to care for our sick during the absence of our doctors and nurses, the Red Cross (hlaptir intends giving a course in irst Aid, beginning the first of ISeptImlber.
