Applications to the Iowa Council of National Defense, Women's Committee, 1917-1919

1917-08-22 Millie B. Andrews to Mrs Francis N. Whitley Page 2

experience at home.  Then I can give all of my time and go anywhere without salary until I am trained.  At college I took a great deal of language could read French quite well, if it were possible to have a place where I could be doing something to help and at the same time some training in conversational French, I would be glad.
I have had no experience in caring for sick people only at home and would not care for that kind of work unless it could be in the way of cooking, serving meals or work along house keeping lines.  I am not afraid of work and tho I may not have actual physical strength I am able to endure long hours and tedious work.  I do not want to make the mistake of so many untrained workers and be more of a hindrance than a help but I'm very willing to begin in a small way and I hope do real service
Very sincerely
