C. Campbell Urges omen to Train as Nurses I.O.D.E. President Appeals For Recruits to Fill Depleted Ranks I An to, (he women cf Wln-ripeg to i nervier as nurses is in a letter received today front Mrs. Colin II. Campbell, provincial president of the Manitoba Daughters of the Empire.

Campbell writes under the caption, "An Kijual Chance." The letter follows: "Here is an eiual chance! The call eornes to all "fit" young women, now! Manitoba's greatest need is nurses. We have envied our Manitoba nursing sisters overseas, and have longed for a larger opportunity. We have hundreds of young women who will makrt splendid nurses. Classes are waiting. Sign up! In this crisis there is immediate urgent need.

No man, woman or child should pitrish with help no near. Xo victim should call in vain for the help it Is ours to give. What would we think of our soldiers If they did not strive to reach the wounded oh the field? Many have given their lives in this endeavor'." Shall our young women not follow their lead? Nursing must be taken up as a vocation by more of our women to meet the growing demand, and to take the places of our nurses who will come home broken and in need of a rest. It is a work of mercy and the truest patriotism to nerve the sick and helpless. All honor to the women who have answered the call in this national emergency.

It's my regret that I am not accepted for this work. Make Vour Fiffht I Xotod Banker's Wife Sues For Divorce Robert R.

i Huns Treat Kindness As Sign of Weakness THR IIAOUE Reports from escaped allied prisoners further prove Hie futility of expecting any chlvalrr ous action on the part of the Huns In their treatment of war prisoners. Most of the camps where they are kept are placed In the hands of officers and men exchanged from England, and reports show that the. lenient treatment accorded them has made little Impression on them. War prisoners are still treated In the most brutal manner by the Huns.

L00k for the Red Front Premium Store at 654 Main Street, Winnipeg I Spanish "Flu" Increases Sales -by Telephone Plan Many Wamen Do Their Shopping "By Wire" Small Orders i Block Service A mail order system In miniature 1 Is the method Winnipeg housewives have adopted to fight the "flu." Shopping by telephone has come into vogue since Spanish influenza made its appearance yi the city.

I Women are doing thelf buying over the wire. Department store heads say tele-: phone calls have trebled in volume In the last month. The switchboard i service Is taxed. Kxtra hello Kil ls have been added to the staffs. "We are rushed to death." one store manager said.

"If lasts much longer wc vn not be able to meet all calls." Kxtra delivery rigs have -been pressed Into service to meet the I emergency. Managers say shoppers (over the wire should remember small parcels cannot be delivered. "It's the woman who wants a ten-cent packet of pins delivered to the end of the city, who Is holding up the service." in the opinion of one merchant. "If they must have small parcels, let them come down early, before the crowd, and do their shopping Personally." Switchboard girls report the situation has its humorous aspect. Things are apt to get twisted in the course of switching from line toline.

For example: One woman telephoned a department store and ordered two packages of a sort of instant macaroni, that was on sale. The af-ternon delivery brought two yards of cream lace. Slake Your Money Flaht DICKY AND THE TURTLE FISHERS Dicky had spent the biggest part of the morning catching a little turtle, only to have it get away from i him in the tall grass as lie was taking it home. He searched everywhere, but the tuiUe had scrambled out or dght and Dicky, very much peeved, aat down on a stone and began to cry. "Tut! Tut!" laughed a merry voice, and Dicky looked up to see his little friend, Gocomeback, the travel elfin, standing before him.

"If your living depended on that little turtle you might be excused for crying over losing 4t." "Living!" exclaimed Dicky, wiping his eyes and looking at Gocomeback. Who ever heard of anyone making money catching turtles!" 'You never heard of the Turtle-fishers of Jamaica?" asked G6come-back. "Come along with me and I'll I show vou how our Jamaica forown brothers catch turtles and how they keep them from petting away fumi them." Hefore Dicky knew what was happening he was whisked through the air and set down beside a deep-sea pool, boarded off from the, open bay. Hundreds of boats tilled with dark-sklnnPd fellows were anchored in the waters, but Gocomeback called Dicky's attention to one boat in particular. "See that native -holding the rope In his hands? He's going dowlnto the pool after turtles," vhispered Go- wwy, Jit "Tut.

Tut!" comeibaek. "The fishermen for days have been fishing with nets made from the leaves of the thatch-palm, out In the sen. When they have caught all they want they throw them into this Tino! nnd nntivew who do nothing eise for their living, dive down under the water and bring the turtles up to the boats Just-as he finished, the native, with the rope In his left hand, fell feet first Into the pool and disappeared completely under the water. Soon his head reappeared and he called to the men on the boat and they ibe-gan pulling In on the other end of the rope, that sank with the tiative and the biggest turtle Dicky had ever seen was pulled upon the shore and quickly turned over on its back. 't)f cuurso, he weighs something like 200 pounds," said Gocomeback, 'Init you sec how he's struggling to turn over on his legs? Well he'd soon make tracks 'for the water if he did, but a turtle once placed on his back finds it almost impossible to right himself again." "Well, I never knew turtles grew terribly big!" exclaimed Dicky.

"Now would my little turtle ilnd It hard to get away It I turned him over on his hack? And isn't it dangerous for that fellpw to Jump down Into the pool?" "Ves to all your questions," laughed Gocomeback. "That's why I whs trying to shame you for crying because you lost th tiny turtle you had emight, Think what it would mean to these chaps if they lost the one you have seen them pull on shore. They risk their very 11 fo every tlmo they go under the water, for some of 'the large turtles certainly can light if they take a notion. How would you like to catch a turtle tike this one out of your stream?" Dicky laughed and ii If by magic everything disappeared and he was once more sitting alone on the stone where (kcomback had found him. "I guews I'm silly to cry over such a little thing," ho laughed and ran Into iho house to ask his Mamma If there really ever wore R'uoh persons fts turtle-fishers.
