Miss Ione DOVEY departed a few days since responding to a call for work in the Canteen Service, and hurried to New York, from where she will sail for France, to take up the work of the Red Cross. Miss Ione Dovey is one of Plattsmouth’s capable young women and imbued with a patriotic spirit, and fired with the American enthusiasm, she will make good as a worker in Europe. Her training has been such that she knows how to meet and work with all people, and her sentiments respond to the work which she has received a call to do. We are sure that this Plattsmouth girl will exert an influence for good, in what sphere she shall enter and will relieve the suffering of any who may be in need of a kind act or encouraging word. Plattsmouth Journal, Thursday, December 26, 1918 SAILED FOR FRANCE SATURDAY >From Monday’s Daily. H.N. DOVEY and wife received a message from their daughter, Miss Ione, last Saturday, telling of her sailing for France, at noon Saturday, where she goes as a worker in the Red Cross. Miss Ione is well qualified for such work, her sympathy naturally in the direction of doing something for some one, and having an excellent education, and capacity, with natural tact, put her in a position to do eminently efficient work, in this line of her choice.
