Roger Babson may have advised against building; if so it has escaped our attention. Babson has empha- sized the advantages of this time for authorizing municipal bonds. Her- bert Hoover has explained the wis- dom of stopping IFederal construction, saying that all the labor is now needed for private construction. Building needed schools more of the nature of private than Federal construction. Tt is this sort of work that has to be done and yet, is | as previously stated in these columns, school committee will go as slowly in its building program as possible, while prices are high, even though it has funds for this purpose. And, as before pointed out, this is a good time to authorize the bonds— as they have been authorized.

As long as the ideals which now are con- sidered fine remain in the world such women will be admired for the good they do in the world. There is, per- haps, no calling to which a woman can devote herself that gives the practical opportunity for unselfish- ness and devotion equal to that of the profession of nursing. value of the nurse is being more and more recognized in the very practical rewards given them, all of which they deserve.
