Farmerette Wants to Be Nurse

Dear Madim t am a snunc alrl elahteen

Now 10 whom should I address mv ap

rather be a nursr.
I know, madam that vou will not re
fuse to answer this ao I will be iMtient
and wait for a replr. A RKADKR.
Although the official peacetime age for
admitting n girl into training as a nurse
la In most hospitals twentv-one years
I find that In some cases now girls ot
your age who show a good bit of com
mon seme and steadiness of purpose are
edmltted As for educational require
ments, although a high school education
Is preferred in a great manv of the
hospitals, they are willing to admit girls
who have had only one year of high
school The earnest and verv present
able letter jou write leads me to be
lieve ou would have no difficulty In
meeting the educational requirements.
You should write to the superintendent
of nurses to make application to enter
a hospital You can find a list of hos
pitals In the yellow part of the telephone
directory under hospitals. I would write
to some of these and state mv quali
fications and desire to become a nurse.
I am sure you would like to help the
American Poles In this country. Have
you ever got In touch with the Polish
committee of the Emergency Aid? Of
course vou couldn't do much to help
just now If vou went In training as a
nurse, but it would be nice to write,
inyway, and perhaps the committee
could tell jnu how to help in a small
way. aire. HoDert von JioscnzisKer was
formerly the chairman of the commit

as yet been appointed. You could ad
dress your letter to the Polish Commit

After you have finished jour training
you could do a great deal ot good among

I am sending you a personal letter.

The Way Out
MOTHER and Aunt Emily are delight
ed at the prospect of my spend
ing the winter with them In South
Minster,
"Bring your warm clothes," Aunt
Emily wrote, "for the winters are very
severe hefe."
I looked at my new blue fox fur. Mrs.
Ashbv had thrown It around my fchoul
ders as I left'.
"No, no, you must take It, Sara,"
she said when I demurred. "I want you
to think of me now and then. You have
meant much to me."
Now that I am home again I find 1
cannot stop thinking of George Arnold
Terhaps It was not my fault only my
Ignorance. His standards are not my
standards It Is all life, experience.
And I shall know more, be more keenly
alive to situation". Yet I am glad
so glad to leave all that behind me, and
turn my face to the new.
And now South Minster!
As I walked downtown this morning
I met Jeanne. Her face lit up when
she saw me. Happiness at seeing me !
What could it mean?
"Miss Lane." she said at once, "would
you help me?"
I could not very well refuse her
though I do not like Jeanne.
"I do want to make up with Tom.
You are an old friend of his like an
older sIMer. Couldn't vou help me?
Tell him some one wants to meet him.
and then bring me In?"
"You want to nnke up with Topi'
Then why don't you say you were
wrong?"
"I couldn't do that," said Jeanne. "I
have never begged a man's pardon In
my life!"
The silly pride of this whole -ittltude
angered me. But didn't Tom still love
her? Perhaps his love would change
all that?
"I will do what I csn for you. Jeanne."
I said. "But not In your way. I'll
tell Tom ou want to see him. You
must do the rest "
Jeanne thanked me with a pretty
smile.
But somehow I cannot feel that Tom
should marry her.

Separate Skirts in Organdie
A Daily Fashion Talk by Florence Rose
CERTA1NIA all wo w:omen are get
ting to be optimistic beings and
taking things just as they come with
out a murmur. This Is more than evi
dent tn the attitude of woman regarding
fashions, for It has been our custom of
jore to hold up every. new Idea In styles
for Inspection and often to a microscopic
examlnrtlon as to the vvhjs and where
fores. But today how different Is the
situation! -
Take the people, for Instance, who
make skirts. Two years ago they did
all they could to have women see the
advantages of the separate skirt, but
the women could not sec a vaency In
their wardrobe for this garment. Never
theless the designers have kept working
away at their problem to convince
wimen that the separate skirt was es
sential. Well, we have to admit now
that It is useful and dots help out to
have separate skirls to wear with an
odd -suit coat, with a colored sweater or
with a new chemise blouse.
There are. as ou understand, sepa
rate skirts for almost any occasion one
might anticipate. One of the newest
Ideas that the designers have offered Is
shown In today's sketch. This skirt
Is a figured organdie and Indicates the
mode of the deep hem. which In this In
stance Is headed with a narrow plait
ing This same platting finishes the top
of the pockets, which have the added
feature of perky little ribbon bows A
sash of material encircles the waist and
ties In a bow at the center back.
With this skirt may be worn a blouse
of plain white organdie, as Is shown tn
the sketch

Tuna Fish Plentiful Soon
Half a million dollars Is to be expend
ed In the construction of a large tuna
cannery on the Island of Maul. In the
Hawaiian group, states the Canner The
waters around the Island swarm with
fish of everj" description, among which
the tuna Is predominant and attains an
enormous size.
The operation of this, plant will be a
valuable addition to the food supply of
the United States and may lead to the
1 establishment of an important fishing In
dustry In the Island territory.

Can Fish at the Seashore
"Can sea food at the seashore," Is
the advice of Fran P. Lund, specialist
in canning and drying, of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
"Last ear women took home with
them hundreds of cans of Fea food
which they had ranned by means of
the steam-pressure method," FalU Mr.
Lund. "Thlo jear It 13 more necessary
than ever that while the women are
at the seashore they make vacation a
time not wasted. Many hours which
might be Idle can be devoted to canning
fish.
"I am going down Into Florida to
demonstrate that fish which were
thought worthless a few years ago can
he utilized. With the co-operation of
the Bureau of Fisheries we have Proved
that fish that were suppooid to be
worthless as food can be prepared In a
most palatable manner, For Instance
shark, tarpon, and smaller varieties of
whales, such as the porpoise, are good
food when prepared right.
"In Texao we have taught the use
of the armadillo, which resembles the
meat of the young pig. The gizzard
shad was thought worthless because It
has so many bones. By steaminr Until
the bones are soft and then canning
with spleen It Is converted into ,-v de
Ilc'ous product."

Letters From Home
Night like a sable pall
And the clouds hang 'low,
And out of the gloom a star
Shoots by with a pale white glow.
Feet that stumble and eye's
That have lost their sight
A voice whispers. "Courage!"
A hand stretched out In the night.
Dawn and tho day breaks drear-
And how will It end?- '
Hope murmurs once again
In the voice of a friend.
So are your letters to mo i
From across the sea
Winged Courage, winged Cheer
And Hope for what is to be.

Honey as Sugar Substitute
The sweetening qualities of honey S3;
a substitute for sugar In foods are dls-
cussed In Farmers' Bulletin G53, Issued,
by the' Department of Agriculture. The
food value, flavor, whotesomeness and
economical uses of honey are thoroughly J
discussed. The quantities to be used whin
honey Is to take the place of sugar are-1
virtually the same, except that a cup
i
ful of honey carries about one-fifth
h T
water, so that much less liquid shduld t
be used In mixtures.
This bulletin also has recipes for bran,
brown bread, steamed brown bread, j
honey bread, honey and nut bran mufllns,.,
all of which are made without wheat '
flour. Rec,lpes for a number of honey
desserts and candles are given, as well as
directions for using honey In preserving.
When Mr. Hoover,
Says "Conserve!"
When Mr. Hoover asked
housewives to save food, I

one of those pledges saying I'd
adopt the Federal scale of voluntary
rations. Jim didn't like It a bit at
first. He said that what Vvlth buy

to be allowed to cat enough when
he conies home at night. But now'

he says he's glad I'm economizing.'
It saves money, and besides. 5ve have '
all kinds of new dishes that wo. ,

give him these extra little fancy
things he doesn't notice how seldom "

The other night we began the meal
with n delicious 7iors tl'oeuvre, con
sisting of a piece of toasted war'
bread cut rcmnd with a slice of to
mato on It and a strip of herring
across the top. I served It on a let

drops of Al Sauce over It. It was
simply delicious. The next night T,
