af- W5 , ., lffzf'-ix-- f 1 Q Q mfg- ' X RECIPE FOR MAKING A GOOD NURSE Mix together equal parts of pluck, good health, and well-balanced sympathyg stiffen with energy, and soften with the milk of human kindness. Use a first-class training school as the mixer. Add the sweetness of a smile, a little ginger, and generous amounts of: Tact, Humor, And unselhshness, W'ith plenty of patience. Pour into the mould of womanhood, time with enthusiasm, finish with a cap, and garnish with ambition. The sauce of experience is always an improvement to this recipe, which if followed closely, should be very successful and exceedingly popular. P. H. N., 1930. -EXCHANGE. VV Lors OF TIME Lots of time for lots of things, Though it's said that time has wings, There is always time to Hnd VVays of being sweet and kind. Time to send the trowns away, Time a gentle word to say, Time for helpfulness, and time To assist the weak to climb. Time to give a little Hower, Time for friendship any hour, But there is no time to spare For unkindness anywhere. -AUTHOR UNKNQWN. gl T : ' 58 n

ODE TO FIRLAND NEVER before saw a city like this, Made up of a family so great W'here everyones happy, friendly, it seems There could not be room for old hate. I marvelled at first at the interest each had In his work or his hours of playg And the utter content of the great multitude As it reached the close of the day. And I saw all the patients so eager, it seemed, To hasten recoveryg and then, Each member was wishing the greatest of luck Wfould come to his fellow men. It's a thing of rare beauty to someone like me just to learn the great lesson its taught, Of patience, endurance and good fellowship And the satisfied feeling its brought. I was asked to comment from a nurse's viewpoint And there's only this I can say, I will never forget in the years that will come The things I have learned here today. I -HELEN LOUISE JXLLEN, R. N.
