When the fir". IinU-.l.Vnvs " :st in

hat was the most awkwud i.'t f; - o;

led on and lost. Never hawr.: wow
their steel helmets for any cor.ri- -erable

know until they were in the t-en-he;,
that the space between the liar-d 11 ad
tho head permits the wind to b'ow
through. This is fine In summer
but winter wee only a week or two
away.
Some of the follows discovered
that you could use the ehiiulfeiii;
typo of Belgian cap for a head-winner
under tho helmet. It al-o B.r.vn.

sure of the steel hat. And It U
small enough to fit into the pocke-l

The quartermaster of the ' fir:;i
contingent got busy en the doiirJi
boy's tip and ordered c French fact
'ory to turn out enough fore-and-aft
caps of a special design to equip the
whole outfit.
Later the new cap was adopted foi
the whole army. Officers wear their
insignia pinned to the front p'-flt
and the enlisted mr-.n's branch of the
service is Indicated by tho color of a
little braid sewed along the edges.
The old familiar American levins
are about to go tho way of the un
wieldy campaign hat. In thu mud
of the fighting front our troops
found that the logglns let In mud

after troops on the front will wear

1her ts probably not a irothcr

mer of 191 G who old not follow with
.ut Interest tho accounts of tho
enldemic of infantile paralysis. Many
of .hem may have wondered since
what becarao of the little victi ot
tho disease and thought of them per
hapj as .olpless cripples. It will be
encouraging to them to know that
thousands AS these children who were
on their burka a year ago, with cVery
prospect of rom'nintf there perhaps
.for tho rest of then lives, aro now,
thanks to physicians, nurses and mas
seurs, In school with normal children
of their own ago.
In New York city a'one 7,0r0 chil
dren who would have btrn helpleiss
rlpphs are being cuied by "muscle
education," administered by trained
nurses and masseurs. In onr month
these children receive 21,000 treat-
nonts. Each one is under the earu of
a nurse, who sees that It attends a
clinic If able. If not, the nurse al
mlnlstors the muin'V training In tho

quarters is immediately notified and treatment.
tho nurse goes to the child's home
tho following day and takes It to the
hospital. The mother or some other
member of tho family Is taught to
assist in tills muscle training.
The work of after care In lnfantib
paralysis Is not confined to one local
ity. Wherever the epidemic raged In
the summer of 1916 and wherever
public health nurses are employed It
is bing carried on along tho Esme
lire-,.
Hole ? a good example of the treat

Commltteo on After Caro Is a four
yeai gl:I who 13 months ago was par
alyzed fiom the neck down and strap-

had to be given In the form of play.
Every day for 13 months the nurse
has called et her home and put her
through play exercises, comblnine
massage and electrlca
L'ach exercise has been
designed to educato tho hardened
musf.les.
Y'hen the curro bcixan hPr work

Today these ii.-jfcks aie banning tc

Tho little patient can now niov

dren, able to go to school with sturdy
youngsters of her own age, not com

The after carq of victims of ths
poliomyelitis Is only one phase 01
public health nursing which Is today
calling young women from ths besl
homes and the best schools ef thi
country Into the uvmlcg ranka.
Sewing Machine Motor will relieve you of this. It is light and can easily
be carried from your home to tho Hod Cross rooms and back. No complicated
method of attaching. Just set it under the wheel, screw the plug in a socket
and turn on the current.
