The women of the motor corps feel that if there is Anything they can do to make these children whole again they are going to do It A large percentage of the treatments given the children is successful as most of the children are young. Another form of service rendered by the women of the motor corps, still using Jamaica as an illustration, takes the district nurse all over the city. This nurse follows up the cases of the children who have been treated at the hospital and does good work In finding out what the other needs of the children are. In some cases it is nourishing food, in others shoes, in others clothes. There Is only one district nurse In Jamaica and her salary Is paid out of the proceeds of a secondo hand clothing shop which Is run by the women of the community. This shop is patronized by the poorer people of Jamaica and has proved a source of great help to them. One day a shabbily dressed woman walked into the shop and looked around. She saw two Holland shades on the counter and paid three cents apiece for them. The woman who waited on her was very interested and could not imagine what she wanted the shades for, when she was evidently in greater need of other things. A few days later the woman reappeared at the store and proudly displayed a white w nlst and a pair of white pants her little boy was wearing.

Widowed fathers" are a new problem since the influenza epidemic robbed thousands of homes of the mother and homemaker. Almost any woman can make a home for her children, given the dollars and cents to buy bread and butter and shoes; but It takes so much more than dollars and cents to enable a father to make a home. Women engaged in administering mothers pensions funds and other forms of welfare work have found that funds were totally Inadequate to solve the problem of the father left a widower with several small children.
