Receives Testi- | monial Letter. | _ 1 | The declaration that to the “fait- | ful and continuous care” of the in- structive visiting nurses her mother owes her life. is contatned In a letter recetved by the society today from Mrs. Mary A. Sheehy, daughter of Mrs. Josephine Cady, who more than two months ago was severely burned by boiling water, at her home, 1422 Sth street notthwest. Mrs. Cady stlil 1s under the care of the visiting nurse, |who to date has made elghty-one visits to her home. “1 wish to express my sincere appre- ciaito wrote Mrs. Sheehy, “for the care that your nurses have taken of my mother, who was serfously Lurned during the month of February. At that time her recovery was very doubtful and I feel that ¢ is to their faithful and continuous care that she owes her life, as she is now well on the road to recovery. “I sincerely hope that vour pres- ent drive for funds, with which to add more nurses to your staff, will be a| great success.” Refused to Leave Home. In removing a clothes boller o steaming water from the stove in her | home, Mrs. Cady's hand slipped and | the boiling fluld ran over her arm, entire right side and leg below the knee. The nurse, Miss Kathryn Ma- lone, answered the call for help, and arrived shortly after the family phy- sician had been called in. She and the doctor examined the third degree burns, ‘the latter declaring that the injured woman should go to a hos- plial, where, for a case of that kind, the best treatment could be given. | Mrs. Cady refused to leave her home, and neither Miss Malone nor the doc- tor was able to move her from the determined stand she had taken. So the doctor prescribed treatments which Miss Malone was to carry out. | Daily, and sometimes twice daily, the nurse visited the home, dressing the burned areas or assisting the doctor, i when on two occasions it was nec-| estary for the patlent to take an anesthetic in order to bear up under | the severe pain which the dressing, entalled. | Now, Mrs. Cady is beginning tol walk with the nurse’s heip and. the, doctor feels she has redlly made a remarkable recovery.

Adams, chairman of the re- publican national committee, who ac- companied President Harding to New York and heard his speech on the In- ternational Court of Justice, returned today. Commenting entirely informal- 1y on the address. Chalrman Adams said he thought the speech made a deep impression on the President’s auditors, as doubtless it will, he belleved, on the country. Personally, he thought it was a splendld address, claritylng the rituation. Those of the President’s real friends, he added, who may have been appre- hensive that in the lack of fuller understanding of the effects of this country’s entering the world court, some affilation with the league of nations might ensue, will now, Mr. Adams predicted, find their fears re- lleved by the complete assurance that yno such thing can be possible, when the reservations which Secretary of State Hughes and tie President have recoramaended are adopted. Mr. Adams thinks the President ‘{made 1t so plain that the former ap- prelienstons are unfounded that there will be no split in the republican party. He mald there may be some who will find language in the address an excuse for continuing in their gens eral resistance to the President, but he does not fear any widespread revolt over the policy the President now ad- vocates and explains. $10,000,000 CAMPAIGN PLANNED BY CHURCH Southern Methodists to Raise Fund for Superannuated Ministers.
