THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, OCTOBER 20, 1918. 11 RED CROSS SURVEY OF I KES BEGUN IH CITY lip " F -- School Officials and Teachers of "ultnomah Are Aiding. EACH HOUSE TO BE VISITED So Vrgent la Xeed for Nurses in France That Aids Two Weeks Overseas Are Put la Charge. Acting under instructions from the Secretary of War, the Portland chapter, American Red Cross, yesterday began m. survey which is destined to show the exact whereabouts of every Red Cross or graduate nurse, every Red Cross nurse's aid. every practical aurse. midwife or woman with nursing experience. The survey will be com pleted this week. throughout the country, at the be best of the War Department, the Red Cross is listing the nurse strength of the country. In Multnomah County, as well as In the other counties of the Portland chapter, the school superintendents, principals and teachers are voluntarily making the survey as they make their school census. 33,000 Xarsea Required. The principals and teachers must, of necessity, visit every house In their district. Hence the inquiry of the Red Cross: "Does any women with nursing experience live here?" will be success ful in listing all women with nursing knowledge. With the Increase in the size of the Army. 23,000 more nurses will be re quired. If these nurses are to be ob tained the hospitals must be emptied of them. Nurses must then be drawn from private life to fill the gaps. "So urgent is the need for nurses in France that nurses' aids, just two weeks overseas, have been given the management of entire wards in French hospitals to release the ward nurses for the operating rooms. Need for Xaraes Desperate. This Is what Mrs. M. Barnett Mc Comb, one of the first nurses' aids sent by the American Red Cross to France, reported upon her return to this coun- try- "The need for American nurses, con tinued Mrs. McComb, "is desperate, and those already in France are working far beyond their strength. While there is work to do they will not stop. They cannot go on forever, and It is obvious that unless nurses are supplied to take their place and give them a chance to regain their strength, they will go to pieces. Mrs. McComb told of a GOO-bed hos pital run entirely by three French women, where wounds had to heal by "first intention." that is. to heal shrap nel, bullets and alL It takes the three women Just three days to make the rounds of dressings once.

Sonth Bend Closes Poolrooms. SOUTH BEND, Wash, Oct. 19. (Spe cial.) Sheriff McDonald and Mayor J.awler. of Raymond, this week closed four poolhalls at Raymond where idlers congregated. The officers locked the places up and told the proprietors that they were conducting a non-essential place of business, which was contrary to the wishes of the Government and that the closing order would remain in force until the war was over. Sheriff McDonald also forbid street fakirs from selling their wares In South Bend or Raymond during the continuance of the war.

Letter Indicates What People Abroad Think of Uncle's Sam's, Boys Battling for Democracy. Another of the countless friendships resulting among women of the allied nations through the common bond of the trreat war has been begun in a quaint little letter written in a deli cate foreign hand and received by Miss Ethelburt Harold, 463 North Twenty-second street. The writer. Mademoiselle Tvonne Rillh, of St. Martin du Fresne, Ain. France, has made the acquaintance of Miss Harold's brother, who is billeted with a regiment of engineers near me village. In the following letter sne evinces many interests in common with Amer ican girls or her same age ana a warm love for America and its people: I am not auite a stranger to you ana I believe you are the same. American and French girls are in this terrible war for the same cause, our tnougnts are at the front with our dear own ones, father, friends, brothers. We have the same hope's and fears. Now I will explain you why a lit tle sister of France writes to you. First 1 present me. My name is Tvonne Rillh. I am 20 vears old and I studied English language three years at Superior school. My native village, martin au x resuc, la situated far in the mountains of the Southwest Jura, not far from Geneva. Near it there is a large lorest, wnere the American engineers are working. On Sundays they rest and many of them take a walk. Thus, one day, 1 met someone that is very dear to you. Mas ter Harold, who gave me your address to write you. T think you will receive tne letter In the spirit it was written. I would have you know the country where your brother is living now so far from you and tell you the best thoughts of a French girL I feel and know one is mnre haDDV If someone talks with you of those that are dear to you and far, and I hope you will be glad to know thaf your brother is not quite aione amidst strangers. No, French people conceive how much it is sad to live fas from his native country and his family, and in my village held American sol diers and fraternize with them as much as possible. "Certainly the customs In France are not the same as in America, and things, too. In your new land the life is easier and comfortable. Then, everything here is smaller, I believe; towns, rivers, houses, fields and even people. But hearts are the same. Since the war there Is no distinction for anyone in my village. Perhaps the American peo ple do not like it for this. But, be it as it may, French people say to American soldiers 'Welcome. Before the war I liked America, for it is the land of lib erty. I like it more now for its devo tion to France in this war. I like and.

To look one's best and feel one's best Is to enjoy an inside bath each morning to flush from the system the previous day's waste, sour fermentations and poisonous toxins before it la absorbed into the blood. Just as coal, when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombustible material in the form of ashes, so the fopd and drink taken each day leave in the alimentary organs a certain amount of indigestible ma terial, which if not eliminated, form toxins and poisons, which are then sucked into the blood through the very ducts which are intended to suck in only nourishment to sustain the body.
