We are rather proud of those trim blue and white stripes and those snowy white aprons, but like any other material, after many scrubbings, they be- come tattered and torn. What a relief it is to have a sewing room where they can be mended! lt would take us hours to do what these able seamstresses do in minutes. Nutrition is the basis of good health to both well and sick bodies. Here in the cafeteria, nurses, students and personnel can select foods to balance their diets according to their individual tastes. The diet kitchen cooks and serves food to the pa- tients whose well-being and treatment requires special attention to diet. lt is here that students learn to balance, calculate, and serve nourishing meals.

I Nancy Sanders is all set for another week as she receives clean uniforms from Mrs. Deshmk. N ff'
