Miss Martin Advocates Special War Training For College Graduates
ers' Places
Need Many Nurses at Home to Take Red Cross Workers' Places
Miss Pearl Martin, secretary of the Kansas State Nurses Association, who talked to the women of the University yesterday in Room 110 Fraser Hall, advocated special training above all else in preparation for war work. Miss Martin is representing the National Council of Defense in presenting the great need for trained nurses in this country and abroad.
Four thousand nurses have been called into service, according to Miss Martin. The country turns to high school and college women to fill this vacancy. In entering training one is performing a national service for by so doing the experienced nurses are released to go abroad.
Nursing, she said covers from twenty to thirty lines of activity including the public health nurse, those going into infant welfare work, laboratory assistants, army, navy and Red Cross nursing.
MANY FIELDS FOR NURSES
Simons College, Boston, Vassar College, Columbia Teachers College, University of Minnesota and Colorado University are offering three month's courses for nurses' aids. Miss Martin mentioned these but her plea was for a larger term training which will give greater efficiency.
OFFER TWO YEARS' COURSE
OFFER FOREMOST CHOICES
The foremost hospitals of the United States have reduced the three years course of training to two years for supervisors and teachers in order that supervisors and teachers may be acquired in shorter time. Obviously, this is the opportunity for college trained women.
In advising the women who desired to enter training Miss Martin said that the important things were the registration of the hospital in the hospital in the state, the housing, and the working hours. The best period for training she said is between the ages of twentw-one and twenty-five years. Size and height are not restricted but a strong healthy body means poise and self-control in emergency.
MUST LIVE PATRIOTISM
"No one will succeed with nursing who is afraid of work," Miss Martin said in closing. "We are facing a national crisis as well as a world crisis. We must live our patriotic Absolute renunciation, expected of college men; it is so much the duty women to enter training for this emergency as of the college men to go into training camps. She will receive the honor of every one worthy the name of citizen."
In answer to Miss Martin's question as to how many women present thought of entering hospitals for nursing courses, fourteen students stood up.
