Crflwm D1 the ' NURSING SCHOOL No noise here! No frills here! No slouching here! And the scenes before us suddenly come alive. A correlation between theory and technical skill is stressed in a dynamic type of educational program. A considerable portion of the theory is devoted to general principles, the manifestations of diseases which affect the different organs and to principles of nursing care and diet in disease conditions. - d P-2110 . gf! cx Backus Ubi mdfen MTS'

. E., l think that l shall never see A patient who so patiently Lets strangers Wash her teet and tace, As our phlegmatic Mrs. Chase. A patient who in calm repose, Lets probies irrigate her nose, Or when they give her a hot pack, And happen to expose her back, She never murmurs or complains, But in her state ot calm remains, A 'credit to the human race, A blessing on thee, Mrs. Chase!
