publish such a remarkable record tor for sevier county demonstrating on the interest with which tho the chapters efforts have been received both in richfield and mon man roe she would appreciate the

divided between richfield and salina where the course will be conducted in the high school three times a week monday wednesday and friday A strange story has been rumored about which we trust will be short lived namely that obtaining a certificate would involve compulsion on the part of its holder to serve in case of epidemics may the preventative measures emphasized pha sized in the course tend to forestall epidemics and may the individual be better equipped to meet her personal problems and volunteer valuable help should her heart so dictate to her neighbors the course implies nothing further as its objective than the title it holds that of home hygiene and care of the sick |
