The task of the Red Cross Public Health nurse in the 1,240 nursing serv ices now operating 'throughout the country instructing their commufrittal in health essentials and disease''pre-, vention is demonstrating the possibili ties of human betterment and thegrea benefits of enlightenment Puring the last year 313 new public health nursing services were establish ed by Red Cross Chapters^and several hundred services so. convincingly prov ed their effectiveness* that they were taken over by public authorities. In order to promote this work $30,000 was allotted to provide women to prepare themselves for public nursing. The home visits made by. the 2,240 nurses aggregated nearly 1,500,000, visits to schools numbered 140,000, and in six months 1,250,000 school children were inspected by these nurses and where defects were found advised examina tion by physicians. In rural commu nities this service has made a very marked advance and has won thou sands of converts to approved methods of disease prevention. In home hygiene and care of the sick instruction, which fits the student In methods of proper care where illness is not so serious as to require profes sional service, the Red Crosa conduct ed 3,884 classes during the last year, enrolled 2,356 instructors, 93,448 stu dents and issued 42,656 certificates.

Reasonahle Rates FRED ANDERSON, Prop. 202 2 3rd Stnet READ THE PIONEER WANT ARS "A Good Advertiser Is a Safe Borrower" Under the bank cashier's wicket every day pass thousands of dollars in loans to the manufacturers of America. They make automobiles or soap, ad- ding machines or candy, talcum powder or furni- ture. Why do these business men borrow large sums with conf idenc|? Because by persistent Advertising they have each created in the |reat buying public a demand fpr a particular automobile, a special brand of candy, a particular make of furniture, They judge the future by thejpast. What adver- tising has donep it will do, and do increasingly. There is an inexhaustible fund of good-will for the advertised trademarked product. An idea is sold to the public and kept sold by well planned reiterated Advertising. \T* AsMatMB tUa f AAvwttaiaf A 1 1 1 VJf wvftfyi 4 Phon. 129 Minnesota fifteen (15} for ^4
