FIRST AID T!
; TO W AND WOMEN
American Red Cross Is Teaching j
I Hundreds of Thousands Life- :
Saving Methods. !
The purpose of Instruction in First
! Aid to the Injured offered by the Amer-
ican Ked Cross is (o train men and
women to Administer First Aid treut-
. went promptly and intelligently when
:jeinorjrencles demand it. First Aid
treatment is not Intended to take the
place of u physician's service. A sur-
geon should always be sumtuoceed as
a precautionary measure where there
Is an injury of any consequence but
wlien one cannot be secured a few niln-
'utes' delay niuy ruenn a fatality. In
such a case a person trained in First
Aid Is invaluable not only to the In-
dividual but through hlui to tha com-
! uivmlry In which he lives.
i There Is perhaps no way of ascer-
jtalulnu the number of deaths or serl-
fous disablements which result from
'llack of proper safeguards or prompt
.emergency treatment. It Is safe to as-
fct they number thousands dally.
.There can be no doubt that the apuli-
CHlTon of First Aid methods to eacb'i
cr.se would Immeasurably lighten the
cowitry'e toll of suffering and death.
' The dissemination of First-Aid train-
ing and information has already pro-
Uje ea a inrreuciuug miju uniruimi iu-
jl&Vnre in the prevention of accidents
on railroads in miuea and lu great in-
Oiismut concerns.
The benefit of a widespread knowl- j
edge of First Aid In the eent of a I
great disaster such as a train wreck
au explosion an earthnulke etc. Is
obvious. Laymen who have had First
Aid training can render efficient as-
sistance. Many lives may depend upon
such ei.u rgenry care.
Ked Cross First Aid work includes
(1) Hie formation and conduct through
I'.eif "Cross chapters of classes for In-
st Action lu acMdent prevention and
First Aid to the Injured among men
and women In all communities and In
every Industry; (2) the introduction of
courses of Instruction in high schools
utid colleges.
The lied Cross Is prepared to supply

SPLITTING
THE TICKET
In order to vole a split ticket in
the November election. It will not be
necessary to mark a cross in the
square opposite each name accord-
ing to the ruling of W. C. McAlis-
ter secretary of the state election
board.
There has been some confusion in
the past because thero was a differ-
ence of opinion lis to the construc-
tion of the law by thy various county
election board:-. The. ruling by Mc-
Alister should reduce the number of
invalidated ballots ut the forthcoming
election.
When a voter stamps tho rooster
at the toj) of the democratic county
ticket but goes over in tho republi-
can column to vote for tho repub-
lican candldutH for county treasurer
let us say for illustration the obvious
intent of the voter is to vote for
every democrat on the ticket except
the Democratic candidate for county
treasurer. The intent will bo so con-
strued in thu general election.
If you nro a Democrat but desire
to split your ticket for a particular
favorite on tho opposition ticket put
a cross under the rooster on the
state or county ticket just as though
you intended to '.vote 'er straight"
but mark a cross in tho square in
front of the particular Kepublican
on the ticket that you desire to vote
for and your preference will be count-
ed properly. Daily Oklahoman.

NURSING SERVICE IS
RAPIDLY EXPANDING
This American Red Cross Work
Flourishing in Small Towns
Throughout Country.
More than 37000 graduate nurses
have been enrolled In the American
Ked Cross to data and Its department
of nurslug Is dally increasing this en-
rollment. The department of nursing has been
authorized to maintain an adequate
reserve of nurses for the army and
navy. It will continue to supply tha
needs of the United States . Public
Health Service to which it has as-
signed more than 1000 nurses In the
last year.
It will assist in establishing proper
nursing service In foreign countries
where the American Red Cross haa or
ganized hospitals dtspensarles and
schools for nurses. Courses in home
hygiene and care of the sick have been
started for thousands of women who
hare never received any education in
this direction. Rural nursing which
was in Its infancy a short while ago
has been put ahead at least a decade
through the work of the department
of nursing and local Red Cross
chapters.
Public hen lth nursing has been ex
tended to many rural communities and
now flourishes actively in hundreds of
small towns and counties. Nearly a
thousand efficient nurses have alreudy
been assigned to this kind of work.
The depurtment of nursing Is unit
Ing with other organizations in a year's
campaign in recruiting nurses for
training schools In educating the gen.
eral public ns to standards of nursing
and In supplying dietitians for the
United States Public Health Service
and the civilian hospitals.
The Nursing Service will continue to
offer to women and young girls the
opportunity of securing Instruction In
home hygiene and care of the sick ln
every community In the country. This
Instruction bus not only la.d the foun-
dation for public health but lu some
places bus given Impetus to the estab-
lishment of hospitals and community
school houses.
"As a community profits by the work
of the nurse" says Miss Clara D.
Noyes director of the department of
nursing "it Is logical that C ) com-
munity should be aroused to Its respon-
sibility. The American Ited Cross
stands ready to help in a general cam-
paign of recruiting and must have tho
support sympathy and understanding
of the medical profession as well as
the Intelligent co-operation of the
people at large."

PEACE-TIME WORK
OF THO CROSS
Under its charter the American Mod
Cross a called upon not alone to
furnish aid to the sick and wounded
of armies in time of ' war. Its peace
duty is also clearly outlined.
It is to devise and carry on meas-
ures for preventing pestilence famine
fire floods and other great national
calamities.
With tho work of relief In devastated
Kurope looking toward a close the
Red Cross turned ita face toward home.
It found enemies there ns cruel and
treacherous as It had helped to van-
quish overseas.
Heady as always to serve in time
of war the Ked Cross is unwilling
to stand Iillo in time of peace.
By instruction by administration
by co-operation the Ked Cross aims
at a preparedness that the nation
needs.
Its organization is nation-wide.
It needs the accumulated aid of
a largo and determined membership
to gain a second victory for humanity.
