THE GIRL ON THE JOB
s How to Sucfeed How to Get 5
Ahead How to Make Good s
By JESSIE ROBERTS 1
fiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin
NEED FOK NUKSES
THKUK ore not enough trained
nurses to meet the demand. On
the other hntid nurses are saying
that they cannot make both ends meet
unless their pay Is Increased. Mnny
women who might take up the work
arc deterred because of this fact.
To meet this the alumni societies
of the training schools are combining
with a view to settlo on a proper ad
vnnce. The new rate of psy would bo
$0 a day for l'J-hour periods and $50
n week for contnglous cases.
Nurses nro going to bo asked for by
communities to do public work. Dis-
trict xlsltlng and prenntnl caro at tlio
expense of the community where
circumstances demand will be put In-
to the hands of trained nurses. It
will be worth doing and suro to ap-
peal to certain types of xvoraen xvho
like nursing but xvho do not enre for
private or hospital xvork.
A girl who wants to study for this
profession should select her hospital
with care. Sho will have to expect to
do hard and disagreeable xvork. Hut
In n number of Institutions the eight-
hour schedule Is being ndliered to
more salary Is being paid and other
matters that have given rise to discon-
tent are being Improved.
A trained nurse Is one of the most
Importnnt members of the community.
There Is noxv a great need for more
of her. Most hospitals ncccpt only
college-bred women nnd no xx-omen
without the equlx-nlent of a high school
training wilt be accepted. If you xxiio
read this feel a call for nursing get
Iho address of a good hospital xx-rlte
to the matron of nurses there and fol-
low iier directions. You cannot enter
upou a tlner xx-nlk of life.

LYRICS OF LIFE

THE LITTLE VALLEYS.
THE little valleys lie so far
From xvhere the busy cities are
That men may live and men may
die "
And never find then where they He
The little valleys near the sky.
Shut In by plain and sturdy hills
That feed the grasses with their rills.
The little valleys do not seem
A part of all life's roaring stream
But Just a landscape and a- dream.
A few green acres that Is all.
The mountains like a garden wall
In quiet peace to shut them In
To siut axray the dirt the din.
And all the world of noisy sin.
And oh I wish that weary feet
Could find the little valleys sweet!
And oh I wish the weary heart
Tfcat feels the braises of the mart
Could find this little world apart I
"God's gardcnO so I call the vales
Up yooder by the mountain trans;
And ym x-iio cry for heaven's aid
Tea wilt cot nd It. Tm afraid.
Where man els busy werid has made.

BUT HE BACKSLID
Aunt Nancy's "Gorilla" Forgot
His Religion.
Which Explained tha Necessity for
Taking Up a Collection In tha
Camp Meeting.
The camp nt East Fork has not
only developed somo marvelous fisher-
men but It has brought some hitherto
undrcatncd-of poxvers of Imoslnntlou
among the staid business men In tha
party. Home half dozen tents shelter
the men and women folks and the
children nnd there Is a special cook-
ing tent for Aunt Nancy. They call
It the studio for there the real nrt
xvork Is done Aunt Nnncy Imvlng In-
herited her unusual cnpublllty from
her mother xxho lived and tolled on
the old plantation until freedom came.
Grouped nbout tlio camp fire the
other night the members of the party
told and listened to marvelous tnlcs
of ndventure nnd mystery. Nancy.tlte
cook nn eager listener sat back lu
the shadows until someone spoke up
good naturedly: "Noxv Nancy It's
your turn." Can't you tell us a ghost
story?"
The hlnck woman got up nnd came
a little closer to the Are.
"It's pap's story" modestly explained
Nnncy. "I heard him tell It a dozen
or eight times I reckon : 'L'ong toxvnrd
the end of the war the xvnr to free
the .slaves you knoxx- they was holdln
a big camp meetln' down on Sugar
creek bottoms In Ilandolph county
pap snld. Folks xx-as gettln' awful
tired of the shootln' and klllln' and
stenlln' nnd they Just nachurly took
to' llglon. All the benches xxns full
and big crowds rrnndln' up. Ilrother
Jerry Hardoxer pap said xvns doln'
the exhortln' nr.d you could a-heartl
him a mile the xx-ay the road runs.
"Toxx'ards midnight they was all
worked up some slngln' someshoutln'
and golu' on like they does xvhen the
Dimmykruts hpld a county convention
up at the co't house. Then a tall
thin man with long hair and a white
face gets up nnd walks forward. They
said he xvas n gorilla "
"A xvhat" asked one of the auditors.
"A gorilla. They said he'd been
with Colonel BUI Anderson and Frank
and Jesse James and Mr. Quantrlll
and them other gentlemen xvhat rode
so hard."
