       words: 9242
      flesch: 67
     summary: The purpose of this paper is to characterize simple sabotage, to outline its possible effects, and to present suggestions for inciting and executing it. Simple sabotage does not require specially prepared tools or equipment; it is executed by an ordinary citizen who may or may not act individually and without the necessity for active connection with an organized group; and it is carried out in such a way as to involve a minimum danger of injury, detection, and reprisal.

     summary: Miss Nightingale was a hoarder, and as she lived to be 90 the accumulation of papers, stored in her house at the time of her death, was very great. After that date, time and strength to sort and weed had been wanting, and Miss Nightingale seems to have thrown little away.

     summary: Although every house has become an infirmary, and every family has dedicated itself to nursing the wounded officers, that it has gathered in, nevertheless I succeed by Sunday morning in collecting a certain number of women of the people, who assist, as best they can, in the efforts made to help so many thousands of wounded men who are without succor.

     summary: I was only on for a short time after this came into force, just to set things going, and then I was appointed day sister of M.

I believe he went straight back to the hospital and made inquiries about our food, for not many days after we had bacon for breakfast; and now there is always _something_ besides the bread put on the table, and we find it a vast improvement.
