Leave Office Cares at Office,
Nursing Director Advises
Early-Morning Light
Better Than Midnight
Oil, She Finds
By JE88IE FANT EVANS.
Mrs. Josephine Pitman Prescott,
director of the Bureau of Public
Health Nursing of the District
Health Department, practices, in her
own scheme of life, the health slo
gans which she and her aides
preach to others, and looks it.
Slender, vital, youthful looking,
and in the pink of physical condi
tion herself, this exper* specialist
in her field, who has jurisdiction
over the staff of 92 nurses, public
health, makes a practice of walk
ing to her office in room 17 of the
District Building every morning.
Prom her home at 2000 Connecti
cut avenue, this takes 40 minutes,
although she is a brisk walker. But,
as the result of her relaxed after
hours program from her job, get
ting up early enough to get this
exercise in without rushing is no
particular feat for Mrs. Prescott.
“The function of public health
nurses in Washington's Health De
partment is,” I was told, "primarily
to instruct patients and their fami
lies in good hygienic conduct.” Their
hours are from 8:45 a m. until 4:15
pm., with one-half hour off from
lunch, and their range of territory
is the entire District, without re
gard to race, color or creed.
They reach their various assign
ments on foot, or by the use of
street cars or buses. Motor trans
portation, except at their own ex
pense, is not available to them in
making their calls, no matter in
what outlying districts their er
rands of mercy may call them.
76,000 Calls In Year.
During the calendar year of 1938
the nurses from the Bureau of Pub
lic Nursing in Washington’s Health
Department made some 76.679 visits
to patients and their families where
the need was greatest. Of this
number, 39,134 were paid to as
many homes, where specific instruc
tion was given as to essential health
habits and the proper carrying out
of physicians’ instructions. The
other 37,545 visits were in the na
ture of follow-up conferences with
patients in the public and parochial
schools of the District, and its
health clinics.
The Health Department, Mrs.
Prescott emphasizes, maintains six
offices in our Capital City, where
special public health facilities are
available. Two are in our public
schools, one at the Gage and the
other at the Abbot Vocational. An
other is located in Georgetown at
police precinct number 7. Three
others are child welfare stations
housed with the Health Department
itself.
The public health nurses con
nected with Washingtons Health
Department perform an invaluable
service in the followup of patients
registered with the tuberculosis, so
cial hygiene and materr-ii and child
welfare clinics conducted by the
public health physicians of the Dis
trict. They also assist with many
of the over 100,000 routine examina
tions which are yearly given by the
medical inspectors to the school
children of this city. They also en
deavor to work with the parents of
all children who are found to have
serious defects at the time of these
examinations.
“The influence of the public health
nurses of the Health Department
in encouraging the mothers of
Washington voluntarily to seek
smallpox vaccination and inocula
tion against diphtheria for their
children has been of inestimable
value to the community at large,"
Mrs. Prescott says.
No Overlapping of Service.
“Especially effective likewise," Mrs.
Prescott told me, “is their co-oper
atlon with all of the other social
and health agencies in the city for
the avoidance of economic and so
ciological adjustment difficulties.”
Por instance, the work of the public
health nurse of the Health Depart
ment and those of the Instructive
Visiting Nurse Society is so pro
grammed that there is no over
lapping of service or duplication be
tween the tax-supported group on
the one hand and the community
supported on the other. Rather is
there complete dovetailing for the
greatest possible good to the com
munity at large, with the public
health nurses of the Health Depart
ment specializing in public health
Instruction and those of the Visiting
Nurse Society in bedside care.
Brought here from New York City
by Dr. George C. Ruhland to estab
lish the Bureau of Public Health
Nursing of the Health Department,
which she heads, Mrs. Prescott’s
professional background and prac
tical experience in public health
nursing was a wide and varied one
in this great metropolitan center.
Prom it she has learned, she says,
“if I am to be as effective in my
MRS. JOSEPHINE P.
PRESCOTT.

profession as possible. I must have
the common sense not to take desk
work home with me unless it is ab
solutely unavoidable. By leaving
my evenings free for professional
and social contacts and long-range
planning, I invariably get a broader
perspective on the next day’s tasks
and perform them more efficiently
because of it.
’’With an adequate program for
leisure as well as for work, better
work inevitably results thereby in
the long run for the average person.’’
Leave Office Cares at Home.
It is also Mrs. Prescott's opinion
that if an executive is to keep well,
balanced in viewpoint and properly
sympathetic toward as well as
undertsanding of the point of view
of others, he does well in so far as
it is possible to leave his office cares
behind him.
“An early morning tussle with
stubborn problems,” she affirms,
"usually does far more to conquer
them than endless burning of the
midnight oil.”
"Improved public health,” she em
phasizes, “is not an end in Itself
but a very important means for
bringing greater happiness to the
individual and affording him great
er opportunity to serve his com
munity wisely and well.”
In Mrs. Prescott’s opinion public
health nursing offers a distinct ca
reer for women who themselves have
something to contribute to the work
in the way of good social background
and educational advantages.
The basis for the selection of
public health nurses in the Health
Department is from the list of eligi
bles passed upon by the Civil Serv
ice Commission. All candidates must
have taken and successfully passed
the examination for public health
nurses given by the commission.
“This,” Mrs. Prescott tells you, “has
are serving the public health nurs
resulted in a wide geographical dis
tribution on the part of those who
ing needs of Washington, although
preference under the law is always
given to eligible candidates from
the District.”
New Hampshire Native.
New Hampshire born and bred,
Mrs. Prescott is a member of its
Society of Colonial Dames, her fore
bears having l^een among the early
Colonial leaders of this State. Fol
lowing her graduation from Welles
ley College with the A. B. degree
she trained as a nurse at the Mas
sachusetts General Hospital School
of Nursing and is one of this schools'
graduates. Then followed her spe
cialization in public health nursing
at Columbia University, where she
obtained her M. A. in educatioh.
Prior to Mrs. Prescott’s selection
for her present position she was a
consultant in public health nursing
for the Milbank Memorial Fund in
the Bellevue and Yorkville health
demonstration work and a special
assistant ta Miss Amelia Grant, di
rector of the Bureau of Public
Health Nursing of the Health De
partment of New York City. She
won her spurs for these important
posts as a supervisor with the
Henry Street Visiting Nurse Service
of New York City. Mrs. Prescott
was also on the staff of Columbia
University as an instructor in pub
lic health nursing.
Among Mrs. Prescott's after-hour
avocations from her duties as direc
tor of the Washington Health De
partments Bureau of Public Health
Nursing are her classes in the prih
ciples of public health nursing at
Catholic University and the art
classes which she attends at the
Corcoran Art Gallery's School of
Art.
An Artist by Avocation.
With a flash of humor she admits,
“I never have been able to get en
tirely out of my mind the fact that
I would really like to be an artist.
The result is that I have spent sev
eral summer vacations in art col
onies trying to express myself with
brush and pencil.” Two have gone
into this cause at the Booth Bay
Harbor (Me.) School of Art and one
at Provincetown, Mass.
Among Mrs. Prescott s Washing
ton club affiliations are her mem
berships with the Zonta Club and
with the American Association of
University Women.

Model Senate Meets
Here This Week With
3. W. U. as Host
Student- Opinion Forum
To Have Two-Day Session
On Capitol Hill
George Washington University will
be host for the meeting of the Model
Senate here in Washington on Fri
lay and Saturday.
This forum of student opinion,
which meets annually, is patterned
ifter the United States Senate, and
the proceedings during the two-day
session will follow the proceedings of
the national body. Meetings will be
held in one of the committee rooms
bn Capitol Hill. Each participating
jniversity seats two “senators,” and
nay send additional delegates, who
set as lobbyists.
At the opening session Friday
ifternoon Dean Elmer Louis Kayser
will give an address. At this session
committees will be appointed and
bills will be Introduced and referred
to the appropriate committees. On
Saturday morning committee chair
men will report back on the bills
and there will be debate. Votes will
be taken on the measures Saturday
afternoon.
Delegates will be entertained at a
banquet Friday night.
Elizabeth Ann Green, president of
the Model Senate, and Stuart Rus
sell, executive vice president, both of
George Washington, will preside at
the sessions.
Questions to be considered by the
Senate include international rela
tions, government and business,
labor and government and health.

William the.Conqueror Blamed
For Peculiar English Spelling
By ROT EASTIN.
William the Conqueror was to
blame for many of the orthograph
ical peculiarities of the English lan
guage, according to Prof. De Witt
Clinton Croissant, head of the Eng
lish department at George Wash
ington University.
“English was originally a pho
netic language and the Norman
scribes thought that they were writ
ing it phonetically. But they heard
the language differently and they
used a different set of symbols,”
Prof. Croissant said. He has advo
cated simplified spelling for more
than 30 years.
rae Normans introduced "qu • xor
"cw” as In the word “quick,” which I
was originally spelled “cwic,” he
said.
The Dutch printers that Canton
brought over to introduce printing
into England are responsible for
putting the "h” in “ghost,” which
was originally spelled “gost,” he be
lieves. "Through” was also changed
from the original “thruh.”
“Spelling is a habit,” Prof. Crois
sant said. “The minute you think of
how to spell a word you get con
fused.”
Simplified spelling is gradually
making progress, he believes, and
at the seat of the Federal Govern
ment is drawing delegates from a
larger number of colleges and uni
versities than have attended pre
vious meetings. Students will come
not only from the New England and
Middle Atlantic States, but from
the South and from as far West as
Missouri. It is expected that be
tween 30 and 40 institutions will be
represented.
Delegates from George Washing
ton will be Edgar Baker, Roy Lowry.
Michael McKool, Evelyn Morris and
George Pughe.
cites the changes in Government
documents in spelling "catalog” in
stead of "catalogue” and "dgaret”
instead of "cigarette.”
The adoption of some newspapers
of such forms as "thru,” "nite” and
“tho” are considered steps forward
by the professor.
As examples of the progress that
has been made, he cites James How
ell's grammar of 1062, which recom
mended that "logique” be changed to
"logic,” that "sinne” be changed to
"sin,” and that "bodilie” be made
"bodily,” all of which have come
about.
"Musick” has been changed to
“music” but “sick” has not lost the
“k.” “Scltuate” has become “sit
uate,” but “scent” has retained
the “c."
jonnsons dictionary or 1775 is
blamed by the George Washington
professor for “crystallizing our spell
ing."
“The words with their unnatural
spellings were embalmed and since
then it has been considered sacri
legious to disturb the corpse." he
said.
Noah Webster was an advocate of
simplified spelling and his first dic
tionary contained forms far more
simplied than even the Simplified
Spelling Board recommended. But
there was so much objection that
Webster had to retreat from his
stand. Prof. Croissant said.
Henry Holt, late publisher, esti
mated that a 15 per cent reduction
in the cost of books could be brought
about by leaving out silent letters.
The thing about simplified spell
ing that appeals to me is that it
would be easier to spell correctly
than incorrectly,” Prof. Croissant
said. "We wouldn’t have to learn
to spell. If you could pronounce a
word you could spell it.”
But the professor doesn't expect
any immediate change.

Scandinavia Leads
In Social Progress,
Professor Asserts
Nations Co-operate
In Caring for Citizens,
He Points Out
The best and most modern legis
lation and public administration are
not found in the great “Western
democracies," but in the Scandi
navian countries, In the opinion
Or. Anma.
k of Dr. Ben A.
\ Ameson, former
visiting professor
at the American
University, now
returned to Ohio
Wesleyan Uni
versity, where he
is professor of
; political science.
This idea is
presented in Dr.
t Ameson's new
I book, "The Dem
I ocratic Monar
I chies of Scandi
I navia,” just pub
lished. The book
was written while he was in Wash
ington during a two-year term at
the American University.
In pointing out examples of the
way in which the Scandinavian
countries co-operate to form a
"league of nations,” Dr. Ameson
calls attention to the fact that a
citizen of any of these countries
can live in any other of the coun
tries and receive relief benefits as
though he were in his own country.
Careful accounting and an annual
balancing off of these expenditures
make it possible, he said.
Extradition is handled as expe
ditiously as though the countries
were one.
