Saving...
2 or 3 of our girls enrolled at the very first call for nurses training, but have never heard one word regarding the matter-- and their enthusiasm is waning rapidly-- especially in the face of published statements that we see each day of how much such girls are needed and how over worked the hospital forces are, etc. etc. One girl (very competent) is anxious to get into work in a munitions factory-- How and where can I write to find a place for her? Two want training as Aviatrix-- In fact some of these cards are apt to prove white elephants on my hands. Can you tell me where to get information along any of these lines? Very Truly, Jessie R. Hyland
