Long before America joined forces with the Allies the Red Cross had organized and sent abroad medical and nursing units. Intricate and arduous details accompanied their selection for such strictly neutral missions. From Au- gust, 1914, to May, 1916, Miss Delano held in her hands the strands of policy and adminis- tration which extended from Washington to the 15 supervising nurses located in England, Russia, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Serbia and Belgium.

THE - 7O 88 CONTINUED RO RO ERREERTOLRRROCAEADAERRARCRIRRRERRERA AR TRARR A Miss Delano was wearied in spirit and ex- hausted in body and mind, and she faced the task of making an official visit to the over- seas hospitals of the A. E. F. with none of her accustomed enthusiasm. On the eve of her sailing for France she replied to a friend quizzically inquiring why her uniform was not adorned with some of the many decorations with which she had been honored: “What do those ribbons mean to me? All I want is the love of the nurses.” How lavishly that love was poured out, mingling with the honors and tributes of the people under every flag that had profited by her unstinted devotion is one of the proudest records of the American Red Cross. In the official “History of the American Red Cross Nursing” are chronicled the details of Miss Delano’s last days; of how she was stricken in the line of duty in France; of how her splen- did constitution *prolonged the' struggle for a time. She died April 15, 1919, in the barracks hospital at Savenay, in Brittany. R RN : , PN e E N Believe Anything Continued from Eleventh Page and important he is right as to his facts. His prestige lulls our judgment to sleep and makes us gullible. The remaining questions, 7, 8 and 9, are based on facts, and a well-informed person should know that the answer to them is affirmative. There is a fish that both swims and climbs trees. Ambergris is most offensive to smell and yet, through miracles of science, yields the most «elightful perfumes. And Dr. Carrel has kept the bit of chicken heart alive for 21 years. Yet it is a distinct probability that many per- sons, most conscious of their gullibility in past instances or incidents of their lives, thinking to persuade themselves they are not really gullible, will have answered these questions “no.” Which proves, of course, that there is omly one way for all but the very exceptional among us to avoid being gullible in one field or : and that is by digging into it thoroughly a finding out whether or not it is true. 350 Woodpecker Types T}m woodpecker is not a single type of bird, but cne of a family which numbers some 350 branches. About half the species are found in the New World and about 25 species in the United States. The woodpecker is probably the greatel§ friend of the farmer and orchardist among the birds, for it is the most effective of all birds in keeping down insect attacks on trees, both of the forest and the orchard, )
