THE HOUSE OP SERVICE II NEBRASKA WAGES HEALTH DRIVES State Shows Wonderful Progress in Nursing Service, Espe cially in Rural Districts. The Nursing Service of the American Red Cross throughout Nebraska has assumed propor tions undreamed of during the last year, A year ago tho stato had but one Red Cross nurse. Today prac tically every large city hi tho stato has a lnrgo or s in n 1 1 staff of trained nurses. STILL tK, GREATEST .MOTHDm6VCORLD Tho chapters aro paying particular attention to their districts where health work hns been neglected. For this reason vi lnrgo number of classes In inirslng Instruc tion aro in progress at this time. Tho city problem and the rural prob lem for visiting nurses aro nccossnrily different, but tho same fundamentals of training aro needed to prepare tho nurse to copo with them,' nnd the young woman who assumes tho respon sibility of a rural situation must bo exceptionally broad vlsloncd and well prepared, because the servlco usually Is Isolated and the Individual nurse has to depend upon her own lnltlatlvo In matters that aro exclusively profes sional. Great Task Ahead. The Nursing Servlco has a great work to perform in Nebraska. Do splto tho fact that work along this lino has been neglected, tho Red Cross chapters nre rallying to tho cnuso and Intend to "enrry on." An exnmplo of tho excellent work the Nursing Service Is doing "was clear ly demonstrated recently during tho school inspection in ono of tho rurnl schools. Tho nurse, In her examina tion found that tho school ot UC5 pu pils did ' not huvo one normal child. She Immediately called a mooting of tho parents and Informed them as to tho eorlous condition. '-Tho-chlldrpti niso wero lectured on health essen tials. This nurso will, from tlnio to time, rocclvo a report of the children's henltU nnd will follow up her work throughout tho year. Teaches Many Subjects. Tho examination of tho school chil dren Is Just ono of the important phases of the nurse's work. Sljo con ducts cIiibscs In homo hyglejio nnd mal nutrition; she aids In tho establishing of health centers; sho Instructs vol unteer workers, and organizes commu nity work in all she Is tho tenchcr. In mnny of tho smaller districts of Nebraska whero tho Red Cross chap ters huvo been unable to carry on tho task through lack of workers, a num ber of tho chapters huvo combined their Interests nnd work under ono Red Cross chapter. This was true in tho community around Knox county, where, eight Red Cross chapters con solidated and now work under ono chapter tho Knox County chapter. Everywhere In Nebraska tho great est Interest Is being manifested in tho work for health nnd tho chnptora aro furnishing recreational and other com munity needs.
