' 'TMEQQQQ 5355!-,-., W And this looks like water, can it be that we are going to see some of our class' mates on the other side of one of the great bodies of water. We must wait and watch. Ch yes, and isn't that beautiful tho? Helen Kolstad leaning o'er the bed of a little dusky boy. Isn't she displaying all her nursing technic tho? I'm so glad one of our class did take up that part of the work. 'lHow soon the picture we would love to look at more closely, is gone. They bring back so many thoughts of our training days, don't they? Now isn't that Sweden? Sure, because there's Olga Carlson, and a class of nurses. Bet she's telling them how we do things at Augustana. nWho are these? Radzom and Rothkath, I declare. Visiting Nurses. Let's see how they travel. Perhaps as in the good old days, catching on to backs of sleighs, but not so now. See that Ford coupe. fThey high hat it now.j These boats are odd looking, and so are the people. This is a small port off South America. I see someone in white and it looks like a demonstration in correct posture. Now we have the whole story. There is Hazel Ottoson. She is doing Edu' cational Woi'k at the ports. It must be hard to get these places organized, and I wonder how the people respond and cofoperatef' A piano. That means someone has found music more worthy of chief conf sideration. Why couldn't we have guessed it. Gunny Crown, and just look at that music rack. There's her time and record chart too. Must be she's giving music les' sons, and by the looks of that schedule every hour, That looks enviable. 'ljust an ideal type of a library. This Yogi certainly does give us an elaborate view of all four walls. And there's the familiar Line Book on the table. Well, if it isn't Catherine Jensen, and just look what she is writing. It's to the Line 'C Type. Can you believe it? Of course we can because Catherine had such a good sense of humor. Illusions, delusions, hallucinations or whatever they may be, just look at the beautiful gowns. Hundreds of them and each one we see is prettier than the first. Notice the model, fourth from the end, wearing the jade green, and see if that isn't our own Wiggie. She always loved pretty clothes and seemed to have a new one each day and now can't you just imagine she just revels in them? The light is fading from this ball of fire so evidently it has displayed all it is going to. L'Yes, and my eyes are about faded out too, Katherine, and here I haven't even read the Daily News. Would you mind reading it to me? A With pleasure, my dear Naomi. To tell the truth I haven't looked much at it myself. Let's see, we'll begin with the Society News. That ought to be interesting Page lhirty sefven

TMEQQQQ 5555! L'Sure enough, we are back at the New Augustana. A beautiful building. Elef vators any minute too, I see. There is Lillie Olson, night Superintendent. Isn't it queer how some people can enjoy night duty? fRemember ours on third iIoor?j Lill sure makes a good night Sup. too, donlt you think? 'LThis is another of those beautiful scenes. Reminds me of 'lThe Trail of the Lonesome Pine, and the picture is completed with a girl on horseback. It's Harriet Carter, anyone could have guessed it, and in one of her thinking moods. She's quite a literary woman now, you know. Aren't they a bunch of bright little ones though? Reminds me of our O. B. ward, but it's much larger, and here comes Dorothy Hanway, Supervisor. I'm so glad she has attained the place in the nursing field she wanted to. Wonder if 'I heard' means as much to her new friends there, as it did to us? L'Isn't that a well planned playfground? Wolider who we are going to see now. This is certainly a wealthy district. Who could have guessed it, but it's Edna Kit- tleson. I never knew Kitty liked school nursing, did you? She has her own car too. Pretty nice for Kitty. Aren't we having fun though? We must let each one know about our exf perience here someway. Little did they realize what the next ten years would bring them, and each one has been a success too. Our Class-one hundred percent strong, always. Look, look, all the books and there at the large table sits Eva Nelson taking notes on some new theory I suppose. She, you know, is Editor of the new magaf zine, Nursing Today. L'This is something new, a small room, pieces of cloth, paper and models all around, and who but Sophie Lund at the wheel of the sewing machine. From the looks of things, coats must be her specialty. But no, she is an Importer and maker of Gowns, Frocks, Suits, Wraps for all occasions, so her window poster reads. French lvlfillinery too, wish we could see some of her hatsf' L'Doesn't that walk and act like Mu1'iel Hanson? Sure, and it is too. See, she has a blue uniform on. l'm glad she rightened what she once told us she was going to do. Wonder though, if she's getting any time in at the HU. ' A NA class room, and isn't that a good looking class of nurses, but where is the instructress? There, she's coming down that side hall. Pretty fine, Eh? M1'S. Cooper, with her Ethics book in her hand. Superintendent of Nurses! We must ind out which hospital this is, and send our congratulations and best wishes. Page thirty-:ix

-TMEQQQQ 5555! enough to keep you awake. Now listen to this. Two very prominent women are entertaining at bridge next Wednesday afternoon and who ,do you suppose it is? The two Traners. Good! Mathilda and Signe did after all become sistersfinflaw. Bet they are good trainers in how to please the husband's appetite too. This is great. Ha! ha. Coma who never did believe in sleeping and listen to this: Miss Edna Larson will appear at the Nurses Club this afternoon, and lecture on, 'LSleep and It's Beneficial Effects. This afternoon's lecture will be a continuaf tion of the three preceding lectures, and will mark the end of this series. Naomi, we must go, and perhaps if we abide by her beliefs we can get a little more sleep and thus improve our health. I see you're doing so without any lecture, but even at that, we rnust hear Coma. ,Agar nw op?
