A DAY IN RESIDENCE At dawn each morning if you hap¬ pen to be within hearing distance of the Nurses’ Residence you will hear what sounds like a hundred alarm clocks ringing in the dark¬ ness. Suddenly you hear the creak¬ ing of numerous doors as you en¬ counter many sleepy victims of the early hour in the corridors. From other rooms comes the sound of cold running water, followed by consecutive splashes, telling us that the sleepy eyes have been opened. About 15 minutes elapse until the doors are again opened and out step refreshed young ladies in crisp white aprons ready to start another day. At mid-day all steps lead towards the residence where the second most important thought, besides dinner, is the mail. A steady humm is heard at the many tables as the girls chatter about the morning’s happenings, or from whom they get the letter. Following dinner it is not long until 3:30 when most of the girls get off duty and begin to enjoy their own free time. To most of the clock watchers 8:30 is an important time when the kitchenette- door is opened for the evening. And soon the aroma of toast and coffee floats through the corridor. During the evening you may stroll down to the sitting-room where you will find the evening-hostess busy with her duties of answering numerous phone-calls and receiving visitors. At eleven her duty done, she winds her way up the stairs, and is free to retire with the others. Again we hear queer sounds as preparations for bed-time begin. Finally as the residence settles down for the night the little noises subside and as the lights flicker out one by one the long day is done.
