Freshmen ul T IS a Common opinion that the Freshman is the unlucky individual who i ' receives all the blame for everything that does not seem fit to lay upon Q the ,lunior or Senior. The Freshman is that little, green, insignificant V being seen on every college campus, or perhaps in bed con-red with black and blue bumps from some cruel initiation stunt. But at Hinsdale you find an entirely different situation. Now just suppose you were visiting the Hinsdale Sanitarium, .-Xs you eoint- in the main entrance at Fresh- man girl will quietly arise from the bell-lit,p's bench to art as your guide, Un the First Hoor, one of the deoarlnieiits you will no doubt visit will be the kitchen and serving room. Here you will iiotiee L'Yt,'l'y' emi doing her work as best she knows how, .AIHUIIQ those working here you will tind a iumbvr of the lfreshmen girls dressed in white aprons preparing dinner for scores ttf hungry pt-re.oiis, After you have seen all you wish lo here, the guide will take you lu the second Hoot' ward. :Xs you walk down the long hall you will meet a happy little lass with a broom in one hand and a dust cloth in the other. You will become in- terested in this happy-go-lucky, little girl and before your visit is over you will have learned that She is one of the Freshmen. l't-rehance your guide should es- cort you to the third floor a similar scene would meet your eyes. On your way from the laundry the guide gasps as she has almost lorgotteiv to show you the most important department of all-the ladies' treatment rooms. Here you will notice that everytliing is clean and the woodwork washed as whitt as soap and water allows, Each booth is kept in order by the girl occupying it, There is a cheerful atmosphere you will be aware of the moment you enter. Now to whom shall we attribute this happy corner?-NVhy, to the Freshmen, of course. XVhen you have seen all the departments of importance, you suggest looking over the grounds. Your guide will take you around on the lawn, but your attention is drawn to several Freshmen enjoying a few hours of nature, with their patients Upon inquiry the guide tells you that some of the nurses are on special, while some are only relieving the special nurses who may be in class or at dinner. By this time you will be wondering if there is anything around the sanitariuni of which the Freshman is not the center. llefore you leave no one could tell yon that the Freshie does not play a very important part in the systematic running- of he Hinsdale Sanatarium family.
