NURSES ' RESIDENCE yHE life of a Student Nurse and her acquaintances ii s centered around two main factors; her work the Nurses ' Home. In this edition of our Year Book we wish to take you, our friends and relations, on a tour throughout the hospital and residence and try to give to you a picture of our duties and pleasures during our three years of training. To begin with, we will take you on a short trip through the Nurses’ Home. Our lobby is for the convenience of our friends whom, after asking the Home Matron if they may see Miss-, sit here and wait. Finally after what seems to be hours of wondering if there is any connection between this outer room and the inside, we come along and cheerfully inform them that we were late getting off duty or the lecturer went overtime. To continue, the large sections you see lining the walls are made especially for our mail and our class books. The corridor leading to the right goes to our demonstration room and lecture hall. The walls of the lecture room are decorated with nick-nacks to resemble the normal human ' s innards and the pictures show the disease apart from the normal. One day I told a fellow we had a skeleton in the closet and he laughed heartily. I wonder if he would laugh if he got the chance to open the closet door? You see “Oscar” is getting old now and squeeks considerably when his bones aren’t rattling.
