A flag processional and massing of colors, in which all patriotic and veteran organizations in the Dis- trict have been invited to participate, will be the first event on the program. The remainder of the program, as| outlined by Mrs. Peeples, will include a reading of the Declaration of Inde- | pendence “by an outstanding jurist,”! an Independence day oration “by an | cutstanding statesman” and a salute to the colors by Army, Navy and Marine Corps colorbearers, with Boy Scout colorbearers representing the 13 original States. ‘This will be followed, the fireworks display.

INEW MENTAL ATTITUDES PART OF “RELIEF" GIVEN BY NURSES Instructive Visiting Society’s Staff Finds Opportunities in Being Philos- opher and Friend. The 60-cdd members of the grad- | uate field nursing staff of the In- structive Visiting Nurse Society of | Washington habitually encounter ap- i pealing. curious and sometimes humor- ous cases and incidents in the course rounds. The heads of the organization urged them to write in brief form at least one of { these, a prize being offered cach month The little con- test ran six months. The activities of a visiting nurse often go beycnd the limits of actual professional nursing; she sometimes becomes the guide, philosopher and friend cof the individual or family for which she cares. The | winning efforts for the final two months of the contest are printed herewith. NO. 5. Didn’t Suffer Alone.

Only Anne knew that it wasn't. It was Yester- day the dcctor had told her she had diabetes. For more than 20 years she had traveled to work on this same car. Each day had been much like the one before. There hadn't been much ex- citement about a clerical job with a large business firm, but she had earned a living. What she really liked was to putter about her kitchen and vaguely she had planned some day, when she and her sister had_saved a little, to open a tea room. But who wants to cook pies and cakes and biscuits for a hungry world when one can only eat lettuce and cucumbers and spinach! Rabbit food! with a hypodermic.

But heavens, she couldn't have a vacation! The inex- pensive little mountain hotel they could afford wouldn't bother with a diabetic diet! Her spirits sank lower and lower and before she reached her destination she was steeped in self pity. The next day and the next the nurse came, and day after day Anne wept and protested that she couldn’t do it. She couldn't push the hypodermic needle into her flesh. But the nurse was unconvinced. It might take a week or a month, but Anne could learn, and the nurse stood patiently by until the tears were over. Weeks later, when the nurse visited | to see how Anne was managing alone, she found her working contentedly in | her_kitchen. | “You know, Miss Allen, you told me anybody could cook with a recipe and | a good stove, but it took brains to| make something palatable out of rabbit | food.

Elimi- nating saloon premises would not do it. | Whoever ran whatever kind of dispen- | sarfes that might be set up would have | the same motives for corrupting poli- | tics that saloonkeepers had. “I still incline,” he said, “toward lt plan something like Col.
