“There are other problgms which in-

One of these with which we will be
much ouncerned very soon after the
restoration of peace is that of the bet

"An argument for the repeal of the
La k‘oilette seaman's law prescribing
the numbe r of sailors to be employed
aboard a ship and fixing the wages to
be paid them was advanced in a report

Mr. Farrell, chairman; i’. A. S. Frank

“For one thing is absolutely sure

can be operated profitably under the

My Dear Madarirz-—i am constrain-

ed to write you this little note con-

gratulating you on girinc such a fill’

daughter and nurse to Uncle Sam
“i such a time as this. ' V
We, have been in the midst of an l\0 CliAhGE IN

epidemic of influenza and pneurnouq
in in this military comp. and 1 ha“-
seen her at her work day after dav.
And I am sure she has been a. great
factor in saving the lives of a mint
ber of soldiers who might have eon--
had it not been for her constancv and
patient care. indeed. she has seem—
ed in :- few instances to bring them
back from the very brink.

i am sure that every man who rc-
ceives such care as she and others
are giving will realize that wars
are not won bv men alone. but
women have their important place.
too. i told her yesterday that i was
going to write to the mother of a
boy whom she secured to bring back
twice. but urrtortunatcly there arose
a complication which made it im-
possible to save. him. so i am writ-
ing to you to encourage you in be-
ing patient. in your anxiety and long
calibration from her, for she is do
ing a very noble work. . ,

The one redeeming thing ’about
this war is this—that it is revealing
in an unprecedented manner the fine
traits of human. character. 1 never
dreamed that men and women were
capable of such sacrifices and such
devotion to duty. The men and the
women who have come over here
have left behind them every joy.
indeed. all that is dear and precious
in life is afar across the seas. but.
i am glad to say they are finding a
deeper satisfaction and Joy. in do-
ing their duty day by day.

Again 1 congratulate you on send-
ing her over here to minister to the
sulerlng with a boundless patience
and an invincible optimism. I am
certain that her reward will be even

greater than those of whom the Ma!-
“inasmuch

ter spoke when he said
as you have done unto the'least of these
you have done it unto Me." And, if

“cup of cold water" do‘es not lose its
reward. then how much may we ex-
pect for those who offer their lives
from the danger of dl’ttéase. in.
deed. till the heroes and heroines
are not at the battle front; many
face the dangers of contagion. a
thousand times more‘ subtle and
deadly than “iluns.”
i am. yours most truly.
