Elliott dis cussed the program of health education, of which she is chair man.

The knowledge is useful not only in cases of ordinary illnesses in the home, but is doubly useful in time of emergencies and disas ters, officials state. Taking the instructor's course at this time are Mrs. John Heck- ert, teacher at Washington school; Miss Gertrude Molloy, registered nurse employed at Medford clinic; Mrs. Noel Davis, teacher at Washington; Miss Ha zel Swayne, registered nurse; Mrs. Ruth Amer, RN; Mrs. Mar garet McKechnie, RN; Mrs. Ettie PauyRN, and Miss Eunice Gray, Jackson school teacher. When the training is complet ed, these women in turn teach classes wherever they are need ed. Anyone interested is asked to call the chapter office in the courthouse. Mrs. Lester .Gilman, ,RN, is chairman of the home nursing work of the chapter. While the skill acquired in taking the home nursing course is not a substitute for profession al care, it does enhance the ef forts of the doctor, saves his time and gives him a greater as surance that his plans and orders will be carried out intelligently in the home, it is pointed out. ' Home nursing is considered a special household skill. The stu dent learns to read the clinical thermometer, recognize certain signs of illness and keep a bed side record, as well as many oth er skills beneficial to the patient. ... Home nursing also concerns it self with community health, and public health measures and their effect on the home are studied. 2. & 1 Iva Kilchell, delightful mimic and dance satirist, will appear in Medford Saturday.
