PUBLIC NURSES
PLANNING WORK
By KATHLEEN M'KEE.
In order to cope with the prevalent
maladies of the summer months the
Public Nursing association is organiz
ing a number of units composed of
graduate nurses to work in homes where
competent nursing care could not other
wise be procured.
The association either renders free
service or, if the family can afford It,
charges a nominal fee.
At the present time the staff Is com
posed of eighteen trained graduate nurses.
Mis.s Mary Crist is acting superin
tendent of the organization.
The nurses are assigned to their work
every morning.
Hourly nursing, which was abandoned
during the month of May on account of
an insufficient staff, has been resumed
this month, since the staff has been re
cruited to Its full strength.
"Wo hope this fall," said Miss Ethel
B. Clark, superintendent of the Nurses’
Training School at the Robert W. Long
hospital, and director in the Public
Health Nursing association, "to have a
very large staff of nurses.
“There Is room In the public nursing
staff for several more efficient nurses.
“Young women who have worked with
the association have found the expe
rience most valuable.
“We are hoping to obtain for our or
ganization some of the fine material re
cently graduated from the various train
schools of Indianapolis.”
In order to have a good supply of
surgical dressings and sick room sup
plies, such as are needed In nursing, a
sewing department has been opened in
room 27, Baldwin block, under the direc
tion of Mrs. C. F. Neu.
The work is similar to that of the Red
Cross and Mrs. Neu urges women to
spend any time they can spare helping
the association.
The supply room will be open Tues-
The Quality of
Your Service
Your telephone service is dependent on the
rates you pay. Inadequate rates must even
tually mean poor service.
The bulk of the money you pay goes to our
employees in their pay envelopes and for the
purchase of materials.
Your service is bound up in our ability to
meet these obligations.
Service—the kind you want and the kind
we want to give you—cannot be furnished
at inadequate rates.
\
Adequate rates alone will give you good
service.

Donations of old linens are solicited
by the association for use in making

In discussing the needs of the asso
ciation in order to continue Us work,
Mrs. W. W. Thornton, chairman of pub
licity, said that the association is bad
ly in need of an automobile.
“We hope,” she said, ‘'that some gen
erous men's club of the city or some
philanthropic person will find it con
venient to present a car for the use of
the nurses.
“An automobile for transportation pur
poses would at least save an enormous
amount of car fare, in addition to ths
time consumed in the slow transit of
street cars.
“Last year the nurses' car fare was
$1,142.65.” she said.
Mrs. Henry B. Haywood is president
of the organization: Mrs. W. W. Thorn
