D.\nDear Miss Klomani--\nRealizing the increasing and unusual demand for public health\nnursos, I could not holp but regrot that you felt you were not meeting a\nconsiderable noed at Pargo. The spirit of unrest soens to have attacioed\nthe zuses quite gonornlly. Personally I think it is a great mistake\nto sive up one's present work for another field. We havo done all de could\nas you know to urgo our murses to romain at their presont nost. The\nRed Cros3 considers the public health work in which they are engaged as very\nSupor tant.\nThis Bureau does not havo arything to do with the assignment\nof narses for Waux rolief work. It youl bo bost for you to wite directly\nto Miss Noyes and let hor know your wishos. If you winh to refer her to\nme I shall bo glad to talk with hor about you\nMiss Brown in regard to wiom I wrote you sometimo ago has\ndecided to give up her plans for a public health muroing course at present\nand consider war relief service. I do not know just what will happen to\npublic health nursing Certainly there is going to be a call for this\nwork as never before.\nI cannot tell you definitely about the orphans in rogard to\nwhich you write. A good miny I bolieve have been brought to this country\nbut a definite effort is being made. to care for them in their own country\nwhich of course would be the best way if such a plan is practicable.\nI wish that you felt as I do that you were rendering a patriotic service by caring\nfor the welfare of those who are carrying the burdens at home,as I feel that\nyou aré, by remaining in Fargo.\nVery sincerely yours,\nDirector,\nfowm and Country\nC-S\nnursing Service."
