Phoebe, explains Biblical history, was a woman who went about nursing the sick and teaching them better methods of living. Phoebe was the first public health nurse. Public health nursing, which ts one of the most Important enterprises In the peace program of the American Rod Cross, Is not a new movement but It is one which heretofore has never received its Just meed of atten tion as a factor In maintaining the health of the nation. Phoebe's sister In the twentieth cen tury Is the community nurse who teaches better, cleaner living. Because the betterment of public health 1 now definitely accepted an Individual and a community responsibility, the Red Cross will make a definite effort to raise the standards of living In the United States by urging the employ ment of public health nurses In all cities, towus and rural district, par ticularly in those where there arc no organized public health activities. A healthier, happier America that i what the Red Cross Is striving toward in Its Roll Call the first weeks In November. Couldn't Fool Oils Kid. Johnny paid his first visit to a farm the other day.

"That ain't a house, John ny, that's hay." "Don't try to Josh me, Mr. Smith!" was the scornful rejoinder. "Don't you suppose I know that hay don't grow in hump like that?" Minn eapolis Tribune.

MOTHERS MUST NOT DIE, SAYS THE RED CROSS Sixteen thousand mothers die In childbirth every year In the United States of America, more than are thus sacrificed in any other country of im portance In the civilized world. The American Red Cross has announced its belief that these mothers, the very flower of the womanhood of America and heroines every one, shall no longer die through Ignorance or neglect if the public health nursing resources of the country can possibly be extended to give them the necessary care.
