There is nothing small in it, forthe greatest things grow by God's law out of the smallest. But to live your life, you must discipline it. You must not fritter it away in 'fair purpose, erring act, ineonstant Willg' but must make your thought, your Words, your acts all Work to the same end, and that end not self but God.

' 16 Miss MARIE FLURER Night Superintendent MISS AGNES TIFFANY Second Assistant Directress of Nurses MISS LUCRETIA MOTT GUSS, R. N Assistant Instructor of Nurses ur hiefs War has brought many changes in the lifelong habits of mankind in general. Physically we have learned to adjust ourselves to simpler modes of life, intellectually we have been stimulated in the pursuit of warring against war, morally we have learned anew the lesson of kindness and consideration for our fellow beings. These are some of the readjustments that war has wrought and which must endure for the beneht of mankind during peace times. These virtues, which the average man and woman have consciously cultivated during the past four years, are the very ones which the nurse by the very choice of her profession has consciously made her own. Simple living she owes to herselfg well-trained habits of mind she must have in her battle against disease, in which she represents the olhcers and privates indispensable to the medical general staff in the fight to end disease, kindness and consideration are the most essential adjuncts to her success in her calling. If I may be permitted to offer a word of advice to the noble band of women who are today more than ever the forces that make for constructive service, I should say: Let not the professional overshadow the personal element in your ministrations. The sick want all you have to offer in the way of knowledge and skill, but they also want your cheerful sympathy, in a word, your mothering, with all that expressive term implies. Surely the poet must have had a nurse in mind when he described 'fthe perfect woman, nobly planned, to warn, to comfort, and to command, and yet a Spirit, still and bright, with something of angelic lightf, fsignazy JOHN B. DEAVER. To the Illembers of the Class of 1919: I am very glad of the opportunity of congratulating you upon your choice of a profession, and also upon successfully completing the course in a school whose diploma I know you will always take pride in possessing. I You surely deserve the best the world has to offer, for you have earned it in preparing yourselves, by unremitting application for the most useful vocation open to you.

TURNER THOMAS Associate Professor of Surgery To the Class of 1919: In the work which is to follow the discipline and drudgery of your training-school days, it is my Wish that you may never h21V6 occasion to regret them. KSignedj T. TURNER THOMAS. Dear Friends: The last two years have been strenuous ones for both nurses and physicians, Whether under the urgency of war service, or under the stress of hospital or civil practice. Your Class, like the Medical Class of 1918 and 1919, have Worked under the handicap of a greatly decreased corps of instructors, hence your scholastic life has been more difficult, but in the face of all of these difficulties those of us who have Watched your work in the clinic and in Ward service feel that you have come through most creditably. Added to this increased burden came the tragic epidemic of influenza, which claimed its victims with the virulence of the plagues of a century ago. ln this crisis, you shirked not, even though some of your members bravely fell at their posts. Through this splendid service to the great number of stricken ones, you have an especial claim for our highest admiration and regard. lt is, therefore, a great pleasure to congratulate your Class upon the completion of aniunusually trying year, full of difficulties to each member, and, therefore, especially replete with honor. With such a satisfactory record behind you, I am sure your future Will be a bright and happy one. ' Gordiezlly yours, Y fSign-edj JOHN G. CLARK. Best wishes for the Class of 1919, on entering a profession Without whose aid our profession would be helpless. KSignedj BARTON CooKE HIRST. 22 1w+:::2vw1sa4'-1. .--2 f . .. . .

' Q A broad outlook as to the fundamentals of your work is hard to combine with the needful attention to detail. Yet your patients will always be more conscious of the minor acts which minister to their comfort than of your philosophy of nursing. Your feet must tread firm ground whether or not your head is in the clouds. This is a good motto to take from Michael Angelo- Perfection is made of trifles, but perfection is no trifle. ' KSign,edj B. ALEXANDER RANDALL. Nothing has contributed so greatly to the pleasure of my many years of service in the University Hospital as the invariable courtesy of the nurses who have shared and lightened my work. It has always been a source of regret to me that the special nature of my work has limited the constancy and closeness of my association with you, for I would have regarded it as a very great privilege to have known each .of you better, and to have been counted as one of your friends instead of as just one of the unimportant and quickly forgotten incidents of your days of training. However kind Fate may have been to me in other respects, I shall never forgive h-er for having denied me this pleasure. I Yours most cordially, KSignedj CHAS. P.

MILTON BIXLER HARTZELL Professor of Dermatology DR. B. ALEXANDER RANDALL Professor of Otology To th-e Gradurzting Class of Nurses: After thr-ee years of study and self-sacrificing work in the Hospital Wards it is pleasant to know that you are soon to havef NEO great rewards: The possession of a diploma from the Hospital of the oldest Medical School in America, and induction into one o tile noblest of professions. Your work here has been hard, your hours long and your discipline at times seemingly severe, but you W1 hereafter look back on all three of these conditions with approval, for they are essential to the development of those qualities that will give you distinction and make your future work a constant satisfaction. I Only those who rate their calling high and see in sacrifice the greatest of life's opportunities, will find in professional work an ade- quate recompense for all its hardships. You are about to enter upon a career full of trials, but equally full of that joy which 'comes from giving comfort, and often returning to health those committed to your care. It is not given to us to cure all our patients, but do not forget that, even if the battle with disease goes against us, the fact that we have been able to assuage the sufferings of those in affliction, may be as great a triumph as saving life itself. I remember how a dear old lady once said to- her' da,ughter's doctor: I know it was not to beg my poor girl could not be saved, but I want you to realize how m her and that you saved her for me these last two yearsf, y V uch I appreciate your kind and sympathetic care of Do not forget that the greatest triumphs are sometimes those of the vanquished, and that if material victory does not perch on our banners, the feeling that we have been kind, gentle, sympathetic, and untiring in our efforts to relieve, as well as cure, will more than b l counter a ance the regret at failure to achieve that which, perhaps, was impossible from the very beginning. I wish you all the greatest success and the greatest satisfaction in your future lives. - KSig,nr-dj ALFRED STENGEL. f The profession of nursing is one which calls for much self-sacrifice and love of humanity, and has aided greatly in the winning of the war for liberty and right. The Nurses of the University Hospital are worthy members of that sisterhood in which Florence Nightingale and Edith Cavell shine as two bright stars. I V - I heartily wish to the Members of the Graduatin C1 h h g ass muc appiness in the work of their noble callin Very sincerely yours, g. I KSMWKU WM. G. SPILLER. 26 DR. WILLIAM G.

An indifferent nurse is a hindrance. fSignedj M. H. FUSSELL. But few of us ever attain the highest standards we set for ourselves, but it is far better to fall short of our standards than to lack ambition to reach them. KSign-edj H. K. PANCOAST. To the Class of 1919: Your three years of study and hospital work are almost over, and in a short 'time you will leave the University Hospital each one 3 to make her own way, depending upon her ability and perseverance. It is needless to say that those of us who have been closely associated with you in your hospital work will miss you, for we have learned to know you and to depend upon you. The war placed many additional burdens upon our Nursing Staff, and last October your class passed through the most dreadful ordeal which any of our nurses have ever had to face. lt has been a genuine pleasure to teach this class Orthopaedic Surgerf for ou h d l' l ' 3, y s owe a ive y interest in a rather difficult subject, and were quick to grasp the important details from the nursing standpoint. So far as your teacher was concerned, there wasn't a dull moment during our meetin s i th l - - ' ' ' g n e cassroom the nurses wouldnt permit it. It appreciate the high standard you have set for the classes that follow you and I know that each one of you will make a success of your work. p Our best wishes go with you. KSignedj WALTER G.

We were very much tempted to omit the noble part of the above salL1t2lf10Ui , . . - ' h than ours. On necessary. We know of no profession or walk in life that is less tainted with selfis ness . g Y the other hand, it was impossible for us to address you merely as our de,arkgragt12QgI1g1if1353g 35155 Igfgtulgflfigx hospital etiquette to use such familiar terms. Were. each one of us to spea 1111 H31 Uh Yin not only in Words already done, quite a differ-ent story would be written. A few of us have a rfgllgfl-5 SW i C some of ous but in actions, how we miss you and will miss you as you leave the Hospital. U U y ADH - f th Cnior number have even decided that they cannot live without the presence of the inspiring in UCHCC O C S class of the Hospital. This is but an expression of our whole attitude. t Although we have known you for only a very short time, and our acquaintance-has by no means been encouraged, we know it will be a long time before the University Hospital will again have such 21 Cl2lSS 38 yours. It seldom happens that such an eHicient class as yours can combine with it an appreciation of humOr and common sense. We hope you will always retain this combination, as we run across the lack of it too often to make our daily work a continual pleasure. We shall never forget the willingness and promptness with which you have always carried out our requests. Always ready and never too busy, has been your spirit toward us. We cannot see how you did it on seven dollars a month and the uniforms you bought or obtained otherwise from a predecessor. - VVe have seen over and over again little touches of kindness that have been showered on the patients of the Hospital by your class Qto say nothing of the alcohol rubs at nightj. They. have been a great lesson to us and one that we shall never forget. Too often has a patient been a patient to us but to you they have - . , ' 'C always-been human beings. Many a time have we taken the credit of them in such a state where Utheir con- dition is about the s ' 1 h ' . ame, on y t e real truth has been the gentle touch and kind words of one of your mem- bers. Wewill never be able to appreciate what it means to stand hour by hour alon the bed 'd f u u g si e o a poor soul who is about to pass across the great divide, trying to comfort him until he has apparently ceased to breathe. ' ' . In conclusion let us express our extreme interest in your future as has be d ' , 1 en one in a few individual casies. It is not necessary to say that you will all be very successful Your work here has proven that. We on yhope that you will treat your husbands as you have treated your patients and not forget your nurse's training.

HSS Here's to the Class of old '19, The largest and wisest we ever have seen, The greatest, the prettiest, the wittiest by far, Their worth and good fellowship nothing can mar Perhaps you'd have me introduce The members of this Class ' Perchance you'd think far more of them Than' if they were en masse. Daisy is our President And we find her quite worth while, For no matter what o'ertakes her She comes up with a smile. Qur girl of wild romantic dreams ls Bobbie, bright and airy, She dances, sings, does everything, She is our Senior fairy. From up the State came Mollie, A Winsome country lass, Who so quickly learned our city ways We are sure that she will pass. Oh, yes! We all love Maggie VVith her Irish eyes of blue, Whether she hates or whether she loves She surely will ring true. f '19 Our Kate we now shall introduce, Good-natured and kind-hearted, 'Tis sad to think that soon from her We must ere long be parted. Next on the list comes P. T. Clark, She is called the quiet one, P She deems it sin to laugh or grin Cr to delightrin fun. . We never shall forget Peg K. Who cost us passes quite a few Because she risked our future joys For one trip on the Avenue. Pop Goff, it now must be confessed Is surely quite a tease, With all her faults we love her still And her we try to please. V To say that Ella is a flirt, If true, would make one faint, But she will have to mend her ways Before she turns to saint. And as we think of. Maude Munro, So gentle and so good, e We would all do well to follow her In kindliness of mood. She's gentle, sweet, demure and grave, We know she's never bossy, By this, you surely must have guessed We mean our darling Rossy. That little dark-eyed girl you see, With the dainty little feet, Is Myrtle Hursh, and a sweeter nurse You surely ne'er could meet. A Miss Prince steadily goes her way, Where'er she is she plays the game, And come or go, or rain or shine We find her always just the' same. The one who makes the biggest fuss When duty hours are long, Is Charlotte, but she's never caught In anything that's wrong. Of girls who like to boss a job Miss Cady wins the majority. She s only happy when she feels That she is in authority. 3 To speak of Vandy as a bride, Will seem to us quite strange, As a sister of the golden circlef' Her duties soon will change.- Miss Leader is next on our list She has talent too, methinks, Not one of us can e'er excel Her skill in mixing drinks. On duty, we all admire Miss Hunt, Who wears a mask of dignity, On all things rash and frivolous She gazes with malignity. Bonnie is the beauty of our class With big dark eyes and soft brown hair We really hope she won't object To being called Our Lady Fair. H VVe love to listen all night long To Mabel's voice so sweet, With clear rich tones she always sings And with a smile doth greet. Peg VVingate all our hearts has won, VV ith her weedling, babyish way, If she asks us for our fortune, We can not say her Nay. Cf all the girls in the whole class There's none more sweet than Bess. We've heard, she soon will happy be In a cozy little nest. vxk '-Nik,-1 i,4'-' ,-!L,. .. 5 ,- . ,' ,' 'jTfi2?1 wQXif:v1lf iff.: l.-- ' '. -' W C.11!'f.iX'1y1- 5 P: N5 Q .

I We hope the training she's received, Will earn her many dollars. A woman of great conviction, Mary Rogers is her name, Whate'er she does, where'er she speaks She surely will win fame. A patient of Miss Kinsella's Would come many and many a mile, Just to be nursed by Mona, And to see her pleasant smile. To look at Betty's big dark eyes ls always quite a treat. A truer friend or a better sport You surely could not meet. We next introduce Miss StofHet Who is better known as Mayme, A We all admit she is pretty And we trust she is not vain. But, if you're looking for a winning face We bring Emma to your mind, She is always in a happy mood, When a new beau she can find. Helen is known by all our class As a sincere loyal friend, She is daring and impulsive, But she's true until the end. lVIiss Hufford, lithe and dignified, Has an air of strange, deep mystery 3 Something tells me that her name Will be handed down in history. From bonny Scotland came our Mac, For training in the U. of P. She is steadfast, earnest and sincere, And filled with capability. In times of great excitement On duty, day or night, If Zimmie comes upon the scene It's sure to turn out right. Miss Taylor tries with all her might To be exact and true, But often all the fates oppose ' Which leaves her plans quite blue. A dainty little southern miss ls Mary Gray, so sweet and charming We greatly fear her mighty wrath, E'en though her size is not alarming. 6 i A 1 From Texas hailed our Georgia, And her life's one great ambition Is to sail away to a heathen land On some soul-saving mission. Bernice Maine is a well-trained nurse With a gentle disposition, . She's never cross, she never seolds, She has great intuition. Wllen Miss Gayman goes to Heaven If she can have her way, She'll sit and rock in an old arm chair, And continually crochet. Miss Dreher, another Senior lass, So flippant and so gay, We fear that from the Residents She will steal their hearts away. From the pines of Vermont came Miss Nelson, Where the skies are bright and blue, It's true, she is always on the job, When there is work to- do. Emily often gets unstrung But soon again composed, To then look at her pleasant face Would drive away one's woes. Our comedienne' is Helen Wise, And many is the tale she's told Cf the wild life of the woolly West, And the cow-boys brave and bold. Criss is the youngest of our class, And also the most ambitious, She's a vampire and she's dangerous, But she never is oflicious. Now, we hope that each one ere they leave A motto will have taken, That they'll ,keep it ever fresh in mind When the school they have forsaken. Whate'er they do, where'er they go, Whatever fortune brings, We trust that each one will aspire To highest, noblest things. It has been deemed from days of ofa' That from the dearest, men doth hola'- ' Th ere's parting. .li , , ,,-,,,,.,,.,,- .,,,, , ,, X, X ., -,,, . X . , ,M M wbwb A X V - Xa' ,X X, .

How many of us in our wildest moments ever dream-ed what was before us? But we had a faint idea of what It meant, an were eager to learn more. As soon as we arrived, we were told to get into uniform, then Miss Snyder assigned us to our various wards. Of that first day we have only vague recollections-blurred visions of doctors, nurses, dishes and trays, of one thing we were sure, there was no end to white beds and in each one was a patient. The sun- parlor seemed miles away, and the trays were heavy-would the day never end! But it did, and in the days that followed, things became clear, and each new duty thrilled us and filled us with a sense of responsibility. Then we were accepted on our two months' probation. Is there any other feeling quite the same as the half-frightened one which comes when you are told to report at my oflice, innocent or guilty? The proud moment finally arrived when we went in check and were no longer called probies. We plumed our feathers with satisfaction, and gazed with studied forbearance and an air of patronage upon those who were still at the arduous task of probation work. The first time we were told to take the UP. M. temperatures, we wondered how the others did it so calmly. We clutched the patient's ,wrist and counted and recounted the pulse until the patient was sure something was wrong, and we were worried sick because the count never came out the same. Then came our first experience in the dressing room. Bewildered we gazed with awe at the resident 7 but were suddenly .brought to earth by a crash, and all that was left 'of a fiask was the metal-rimmed tag which read N, S. S. for Intravenous only. Even the comforting, Don't worry, child, accidents will happen 7' did not reassure us, we could feel the anger and wrath of the dressi i ng-room nurse who had s ent all ' filtering the solution. ' P mmnmg 60 At this time came our first term of night duty. Now we went to bed in the morning and arose just as the sun was setting. At Hrst it seemed strange and we could not sleep, but lived over again the events of the night before, thought of what we had done and more of what we had not done. But we get used to every- thing, it is said, and after the first few weeks, night duty had no terrors for us. , Qur Hrst emergency-a woman in convulsions-and we were told to watch her. Imagine our surprise when, standing at the foot of the bed, we saw the patient wink. At first we could not understand why the innocent question ls she conscious?l' brought forth laughter. VVe were covered with confusion when told that it was the sign of a recurring convulsion. Would we ever learn? The longer we stayed, the more and more diflicult our tasks often seemed to us. We were told to pour medicines for the first time in Wfard D. Men's Medical. iBefore us were rows upon rows of bottles, large and small, Hlled with every known medicine. How were we to know that .32 meant the 5 grs. written in the order book? Will we ever forget the feeling that we might perchance give someon-e the wrong medicine, and then would come a vision of the 'fincline hike with all its consequences. At the close of each day we whis- pered a little prayer of thanks that all was well. I The Hrst day in clinic is simply chaos in our minds. Let it suHice that there we learned the essentials of sterilization, we scrubbed and scrubbed until it seemed that the most persistent ,micro-organism must surely have been scrubbed away. How we prided ourselves in scrubbing up for a chief! Not for worlds would we be the means of breaking one of the connecting links in the chain of asepsis. T - Time flies quickly when one is busy, and before we knew it we were Hin blue 'l filling the responsible 7 position of staff, making rounds with chiefs, and answering the telephone by saying, 'cYes, this is the nurse in chargef' ' 61 But little did we know what was coming during that last year. We were called to volunteer for foreign made. Then came the epidemic service, and practically all of our class were ready to go and our plans were of influenza, and our plans for service were brought to a standstill, for we had all we could manage at home. Ever in our hearts will remain the memory of those classmates we lost during that awful period. Maternity nursery-babies crying and babies smiling, how could we ever hold and bathe the wee kickers? Yet after the first few times it seemed easy enough, and we found ourselves striving to establish a new speed record in weighing, bathing and dressing the babes. Is it possible that we could not at first dis- tinguish between an electric light button and the emergency bell? The Night Superintendent, we are afraid, will say that this is true. 4 ' T Mingled with all this were classes, lectures and examinations, sometimes dreaded, but more or less fre- quently enjoyed. Can we ever obtain anywhere else more practical instruction than we have received here? We have not been without social gatherings. It has been our 'good fortune to attend two masquerade parties given by Miss Smith. A mock operation performed by the residents added much to the enjoyment of the last one. Our Senior Farewell Party in honor of Miss Snyder and .Miss Stephenson was one of the most enjoyable of our training. 1' Three years .have passed and the great day has arrived. The older members of our class' have already begun their careers as graduate nurses. We are no longer the Seniors, but the 4'Graduating Class. Are we glad? Yes, in a way we are, for it means a new life full of opportunities. Whatever our future may have in store for us, we shall be the better fitted to meet it because of our training-school days. But it is with a feeling of regret that we sever the ties that have bound us together as a class. As the years go by, we shall look back on our training-school days with their checkered sunshine and shadow, and recall foremost the many pleasant associations in the classroom, the ward, and the nurses' home. 62 False Alarm at the Mat Two of our classmates, one winter night, To take a bath Qand take, it rightj Made' up their minds, then hied away To get themselves ready for the 'Hfrayf' . The room where the Uscrub-upl' was to be wrought Was one with many memories fraught Of operations in days long ago, But now for a bathroom used, and so Into the bathroom, they rushed with glee, Laughing and singing so merrily We knew if occasion itself Would present, Someone would pay for this merriment. Fastened up on the wall quite high t A bell-cord one of the girls did spy, 'KNOW what in the world can this thing be? Let's ring it and then perhaps we shall see. As she spoke, she pressed her hand on the bell But nothing happened that they could tell, The nurses waited, thinking to hear The sound of a bell from somewhere near. ' They waited breathlessly, somewhat in doubt As to whether or not the had better et out Y E ' But all seemed serene, so with forebodings gone They once moreuindulged in merry song. 63 Then into the bathtub one Went to repose, While the other one started to Wash out some clotbCS Which she meant to hang on the bathroom rack, And then, on the morrow, put on her back. But out in the hall, things were not as they seemed To the girls in the bathroom-they little dreamed l Of the awful commotion they'd caused by the ringing Of the bell on the Wall-and they kept up their singing. Doctors and nurses Were all rushing 'round, Each trying to learn from Where came the sound Of the bell, used only in emergency cases, And a look of alarm was on all their faces. They searched every room, but no one could tell Who had caused all this fuss by a push on the bell, They had visions of someone slowly expiring While they all rushed around the location inquiring. But all things must come to an end, they say: And, as With all, with this 7tWas the Way. i The head nurse, remembering, to the bathroom Went To see if the call from there had been Sent. y As she. came down the hall, on a moderate run, The girls in the bathroom, in the midst of their fun Were singing aloud and shouting with glee, i 'fHere comes Tootsie, they sang, in high VC, 64 She knocked on the door and then gave a loud call, UDid anyone here ring that bell on the WallP', ' But Within, silence reigned, from the girls not a sound, So the nurse, on the door gave another hard pound. f'Yes, ma'am, piped a small, frightened voice very low, We thot it was not connected, you know! 'fWell, it was! snapped the head nurse, in tones of deep scorn, 'fI'll attend to you girls tomorrow morn! But when morning came, she'd forgotten her Wrath At the poor frightened girls and their last night's bath. But the girls will remember for many a day and how 'f'loots1e came their Way --Y 'Y-f 'Here comes Tootsiefl 1 ' i , ' 1, , Lf? X ff- , i Tfa' 1, 'li' i l 10 P.

I gazed for a breathless moment, when greatly to my surprise, The gates of the future opened before my very eyes. Into diverse lanes and by-paths I followed a beckoning hand ' And to me for all my colleagues was revealed what the fates had planned. 1. Miss WELCH y f As a writer of books and papers on fKeeping Awake at Night ' And Hospital Rules for Nurses to the public-she'll give delight. By her genial disposition she'll numerous friends collect, - - But no matter how well they know her, shelll always demand respectff 2. Miss BoBB y r , I On the stage you may look for Bobby, as a brilliant star 4 I she'll shine I Q She has curly hair and laughing eyes and acting is in her line. ' a Shels an able nurse, but she likes to flirt, and her eyes she can't control, So it's safe to ,say that an actress' life will be Bobby's ' ultimate goal. I I . , 3. MISS MESSERSCHMIDT In Illinois she'll settle down, as an bI.D.'s happy wife, Theylil both pitch in and work with vim for a long successful life. With her doc's career and her family cares, her days will be occupied . ' And the Doc will always bless the day when he made her his blushing bride. 4. MISS MASTIN i' It is safe to say that the aim of Kate Is a class 'of students to educate - So I predict that the Fates have planned ' In Columbia College shelll some day land. 5. Miss CLARK An exciting life for her I see ,S I She'll wed but soon divorced she'll be, Then for rest and quiet from a life so gay For the South Sea Islands she'll sail away. 6. Miss MAGUIRE For her we know it's safe to say That a man of science shelll wed some dayg Cn their honeymoon they'll go for a while To visit Pearl on her South Sea Isle. 7. MISS KRAMLICH A widower with heart so true Will ask that she be number twog ' She'll give consent and then we'll see His child brought up at la Ward G. s. Miss ooFF On a farm she'll live way up the state As Rudy's wife-'tis decreed by fateg And all the time Rud has to spare From his wife and kids-there'll be a pair,- I-Ie'll spend in making different tests To drive from earth the cootie pests. 9. MISS BENDER f From Ella's own experience she's fittedafor the ,role Of writing UHints to Lovelorn Folks to heal a lovesick soul, ' So Beatrice Fairfax shelll succeed and some day we shall hear - She'swriting recipes to dry the lovesick maiden's tear. l0. MISS MUNRO For her we can say it is easy to see That her life will be that of a famous M.D. And whatever the task she is given to do Her sweet disposition will carry her through. ll. MISS SWEENEY An eminent physician she once nursed back to health Will some day ask her to share his home and wealthg So down in North Carolina he'll take her as his wife And there with Doctor and the kids she'll lead a happy life. 12. MISS I-IURSI-I Domestic science is her line, a school some day she'll start - Shelll demonstrate the quickest route to reach a loverls heart. ' l3. MISS PRINCE D Some day shelll 'marry a doctor and sail away for France . Q , s To help with reconstruction and see if there isnlt some -chance To quietly search for someone who's missing and whom she fears I May be held by the Bolsheviki for years and years and ' years. l4. MISS BROCK Q ' s A'Naval doctor she will wed, there's no one else would do ' ' For her ideal is a Navy man with a uniform of blue. 15. Miss CADY f Her own hospital she'll build someday Where shelll have complete controlg She'll be content when she has her say And can superintend the whole. 16. MISS VANDENBURGH In a cottage down in Richmond with the roses all aglow . She'll thrive, and prosper day by day, quite buxom she Will grovvg I The diamond novv around her neck suspended from a string Will then repose upon her hand with a golden Wed- ding ring. ' 17. MISS LEADER Of all the things she likes to do therels one that beats them all In summer or in Winter, in spring or in the fall, . For her to eat is happiness, so that is prophesied, ' A large hotel she'll run some day and in it shelll reside. Her dining rooms will serve the best, roof gardens there will be ' . And they'll be patronized by folks from the dear old U.,of P. - 18. MISS HUNT I I In nursing infants I foresee that she Will specialize, In this she'll be successful, to fame she'll quickly rise As she has done in other lines of more exciting trend, But Who of us Would e'er have thought that this was how she'd end? . ' , , so 19. MISS TETE I prophesy that for Bonnie a society belle she Will be, At a fashionable club We shall see her holding forth at an afternoon tea, She'll 'tell how a pet Pomeranian should be raised with the greatest of care, And shelll knovv all the gowns that are proper for a Woman of fashion to Wear. 20. Miss ELWELL is I can see her happily married to an engineer of note When over the sea he sails for home in a U. S. Army boat, And in later years her tenor voice will be crooning lullabies f ' When the hour comes for the little folks to close their sleepy eyes. I Z1. MISS VVINGATE '- An M.D. she Will Wed some day. In his office her interest lies, I Shelll .jolly all his patients and make them think him Wise. She'll tell them how courageous they are in standing pain .. ' I So every time a thing goes Wrong, they come to him again. xg Q 22. MISS B. ROGERS An operating room she'll run for just a little while Where Ucases of the head and such will only make her smile, s . A visit of a chief to her will be a small detail, No matter what the case may be, her nerve will never fail. But with it all she'll not forget the uniform of blue She'll wed the boy who wears it and prove her love is true. 23. MISS DELCAMP She has a talent few can boast-the thing she best can do Is making over her old clothes to look as good as new, So in a shop I see her placed, a sign upon the door, 'fCome in and see how Mistress Ann can make your old clothes o'er. 24. MISS M. ROGERS In her own home town she'll practice law and never lose a case, In asking questions she's the one who always sets the pace. She's able to cross question and argue day and night, And for every client that she has, she'll win his legal fight. 25. MISS KINSELLA She'll wed and live in Canada, of children there'll be three, In bows of pinkshe'll deck them out, a pretty sight to see. For recreation they will coast-these kiddies, ma and dad, Down hills all covered o'er with snow on sleds that go like mad. 21. MISS DUNCAN In the Stengel Sanitarium for Diabetics she Will be chief nurse and in this line an able head she'll be. She'll take a chance most any time in any kind of game, But risky though this chance may be, she'll get there just the same. ' 27. MISS STGFFLET Shels a Pennsylvania Dutch girl and she owns a pair of feet That for shapeliness and beauty are pretty hard to beat, So when she's tired of nursing, this asset she can use And fill a job in any shop by demonstrating shoes. 28. MISS MARTIN Good-natured and pretty, she has lots of beaux The longer you know her, the sweeter she grows. A dark, handsome doctor some day she will wed That they will be happy can be safely said. 29. M I S S HARTLEY J. D. she will marry, though this she denies And says if it happens herself she'll surprise, ,But he'll surely win her, this D., M.D. And so in the future his bride she will be. 30. MISS HUFFORD As a special nurse she d make a hit, but I fear there is no chance For the Fates are planning a wedding with af soldier boy in France When Uncle Sammy sends him back just wait and you will see , p The first place that he lands in, will be the U. of P.. 31. Miss MACROBBIE For her the ,Fates were not so kind, the future they withheld , , And so to wait till time rolls by it seems she'll be compelled. ' But if the Fates would be so kind, now wouldn't it be grand ' y V I If she some day should find a gay, rich widower to land?f , ' 32. MISS ZIMMERMAN Up in Shamokin there will be A place to treat those with T.B. A And Zimmie there will find her niche In which she'll Ht without a hitch. 33. MISS TAYLGR In real estate she'll dabble to quite a great extent, A row of summer homes shelll build and these she'll have for rent To those who've never had the luck to live the year around In what she calls God's country where her bungalows are found. .D 34. MISS NEWLIN A In the South shelll live where her time is her own, Where it's plain to be seen fDeaver Daysl' are unknown, VVhere she between cases will have ample time To get in some tennis-Won't, that be sublime? 35. Miss HEwsoN . Shelll go far away and will nurse the Chinese By her calm assured manner thesepeople shelll please, So cool and collected, there's nothing will phase The Georgia of olden Maternity days. - 36. MISS MAINE Sheis strong and stout with common sense Andisoon you'll see Bernice commence Her district nursing, up the, state Where some day she will meet her fate. 37. MISS GAYMAN It's often been seen how she bothered her head About various methods of mixing up bread, I-Iow she cherished a hope chest with linens well stocked, How -she never would tell and kept everything locked. But soon she will marry and live at Bryn Mawr And her husband will buy her an elegant car. 38. MISS DREHER A college widow some might say, With a different fellow every day, But some time she will settle down And live in a small coal-region town. 39. MISS NELSON - She never bothers anyone, but minds her p's and q's, And it is hard to prophesy just what career she'll choose, But out in California if she should specialize In nursing ills and heartaches too, it would not cause surprise. I 40. MISS ROATI-I Over in jersey she'll go to live as a clergyman's happy wife, Far away from the rush of clinics and the hospital's wild, wild life. She'll often remember the duties that were hers to per- form in Ward M, But her husband will chase away sadness and call her his own little gem. 4l. MISS VVISE As the energetic mistress of the U-U ranch she'll be Down in Texas with the cowboys from hospital duties free. ' Bucking broncos will be triiies and horned toads in her back yard Will be naught compared to cases in the old Receiving Ward. 42. MISS C-RISSMAN As a Government employee she will travel through the land De-monstrating ,first-aid treatments with the things one has at hand. Once while riding round the city, she proved to be a star Giving first aid to a woman in a crowded trolley car. Then slowly the vision faded and the crystals clouded o'erg In the land of the living present I found myself once more. And now as you journey onward and the future years unfold, just remember the lines you have read above and the story the crystal told. ' rfji fa f ' I E. Q. 5 L. .

One happy morn' in early May, Dan Cupid came alongythe way, His bow was glancing in the sun As from his rosy arm it swung. He stopped before the U. of P. And said, UIs this the place for me? I wonder if I shot a dart, Would it pierce the depth of a doctor's heart? Then he laughed aloud in bubbling glee, I guess I'll try it just to seef' I He carefully aimed at a figure in white V Who.looked as if he'd been up all night. But doc heeded not and Cupid got sore An' said, '4It's one of those hard-hit guys, I remember now I shot him before, 'Tvvas in the-dressing room back of the door. From down the stair another came And Dan drew back his bow again. Suddenly 'round the corner ran Another youth all spick and span, But Cupid gave his shoulder a hunch And said in despair, 'Tm tired of thisbunchf' f'It's that popular fellow, no work for me heref' He said in accents dull and drear, . UI-Ie's forgotten more than I ever will know About the heart firels passionate glow. '4'He's loved every girl around for miles, just lives in the sunshine of their smiles, No thanks, not for me, he's not my game, It's for a whole heart that I take aim. ' Then mingled voices came to him From out the Hospital's muffled din. s The voices heralded the approach of two, An Interne in white and a Nurse in blue. Dan picked up his arrows with mischievous g And he took himself off in a merry dance, lance The arrow shot from the quivering bow, 4' ,Tis not the season for whole hearts,'l said he, But the Interne had th-e dart in tow.

A Rare Escapade One DREHER day, a WELCH PRINCE, who was a GAYMAN, accompanied by a ZIMMERMAN and a CRISSIWAN, also by his two sons, NEL and I-IEW, went to DEL-CAMP, MAINE, to HUNT. Beyond the WINGATE at the ELWELL, they saw a HART-LEY BOBB up. If you are WISE, said their LEADER, Uyou will let that creature alone. Whereupon he was greeted with cries of 'TETE! You're a CAD-Y! UNIX-ON that! ' f'Tell it to SWEENEYV' , 'tThis party's G-OFF! cried the PRINCE in a rage. With a R-OATH, he seized one B-ROCK after the other, and hurling them at his scoffers, threw them into the MCAGUJIRE, soiling their NEVV- LINen. '4HaI you can go to your TAYLCR. I've had enough of this STOFF-LET me hereafter live in solitude. I'll take my horse to a MESSER-SCHMIDT where I KIN-SELL-A. Then I'll go to ROGERS on the B SL M and there make my future home.

THEREFORE, as a result of these accomplishments, we do herein declare this to be our last will and testament. . FIRST: We appoint DR. JOHN B. DEAVER as our Executor and ask him to see, first of all, that we get a Hall of Fame, as a resting place. SECOND: We having been classed as the brightest, the most original, and most dignihed Seniors ever graduated at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, it has been one of our greatest desires to bequeath some of our wisdom and dignity to the under- graduates of this institution. So we leave our insatiable thirst for knowledge, our perfect decorum, and our matchless adaptability, in the hands of the Epgecutor to dispose of as hetsees fit to the afore-mentioned undergraduates. .To our Superintendent, Miss Smith, we bequeath eighteen Head Nurses and twenty-four Special Nurses, and do herewith advise our Executor to hasten the completion of the new surgical building in all of its departments, so that our Superintendent will not be encumbered with this enormous legacy. To Miss Snyder, our Directress, we bequeath a new oriental rug for her office, to take the place of the old one, which we as a class have worn threadbare. To Miss Stephenson, our Instructress, we bequeath the northeast corner room, second floor, of the new surgical building to be used as a classroom. Although the old classroom held for us many pleasant hours during our training, yet this new classroom will have its advantages for the classes to follow, it being well equipped, well lighted, well ventilated, and remote from the under- drainage. .L , ' .To the Juniors we bequeath all Senior privileges, namely, exemption from all rules of the Institution. Note: This privilege will permit you--CU To go out without a hat in the summertime. C25 A twelve o'clock pass once a week. C35 'To go out with students and residents ad libitum. Q45 To have breakfast served in your room Sunday morning. I I To the Residents we leave memories of stolen pleasures.

From the month of A ril l9l7 until the month of March of the following year, the , P 7 i . i V buildings of the University Hospital were overrun by innumerable organisms of a new and ? unknown species, whose only common characteristic seemed to be their brilliant green hue. This led some scientists to :believe that they might be classed as chlorophyl, or green plants, and, therefore, independent in manner of life, until, by a code known as Hospital x Etiquette, they were compelled to manifest at an early date various forms of dependency. The characteristics of these organisms were so varied that any attempt at classification V has been found impossible. After enduring the storms of 'fAnatomy', and HBandaging, mm, and weathering the rough winds of 4fMateria Medica, these organisms began to assume a peculiar color-a faded blue check, which gradually became paler,, until, suddenly April l, l9l9, they changed to a vivid blue hue. A Q M s In spite of the uncertain knowledge concerning them, in regard to which there was no definite information, scientists predict, that if 'unhampered by the obnoxious organism ' '4Suspension,', within twelve months this color will become a paler hue, until finally, weak g ,y in pulse, and neurotic in temperament, thes-e organisms will fade into snowy whiteness, 1 4 and be disseminated through the world, some to become 'l'parasites, some Uhospitalitesf' 7,2 ,Q O and others just plain sites. , Q5 -2215 ,, 'Ji i if :af :': ai QM? i A ' E- 4- twff?

A small table and a chair to each bed were the only furniture. fWe hung our clothes on a T at the head of our beds. There was one bathroom to each ward. The entire place was well heated, and we were very comfortable. Qur meals were served in a small restaurant on Island No. Z, breakfast from 7 to 8, lunch 11 to 1, and dinner 4.30 toX5. The dining room held ninety-eight, and at times there were two hundred to three hundred nurses stationed on the Island. Roll call was held each morning at 9 o'clock in the general assembly room, at which time each unit received orders for the day. ' Y k th 10.30 boat to Red Cross Headquarters The first day after our arrival, we were sent to New or on e 65 rses one dietitian and two secretaries. We were divided into three sec- to be outfitted.

At the end of two days our measurements had all been taken, and at the end of one week we were all in uniform, and a very proud- and happy set we were. After spending two days in the various outfitting places, we were sent to Hoboken to have passports made out, there we posed for photographs and had our finger-prints taken. Then the next few days were spent in filling out papers for War Risk Insurance and Allotments, and at the end of one week we were ready ,to 'l From that time on after 9 -o'clock each day,.we were free to do as we pleased, and the 10.30 boat sai . usually found us on our way to New York to shop and see the shows.

For three weeks we had a grand time seeing New York, and then quite sud en y we we Immigration Hospital of Ellis Island was to be taken over by the Army, and the nurses of Base .Hospital No. Z0 were to go on duty March 8, 1918. We were very much disappointed over the news, for we were fearful it might mean our permanent stay on Ellis Island. However, we all went to work getting the place cleaned and the wards equippedg The experience was well worth while, for we had our initiation into the H ' fi . k 1 hen army routine and were better prepared for our work UOver There. We were on duty just ve wee s w l ' d to Ellis Island. , Q V we were relieved by the nurses who were permanent y assigne O A 'l l the ofiicers and enlisted men of the Unit arrived at Camp Merrit, N. J., and -then we were n pri , hopeful we might be on our way. During the time they were at Camp Merrit, someone of the ofiicers came ' ' ' A ' k d set but finall to Ellis Island each. day to teach the nurses military drills. At first we were a very aw war , y were able to keep in step and march either two or four abreast. . 100 B On April 20, we were told that orders were expected and that the following day was the last day we might have shore leave. Everyone was very much excited and hastened to New York to do a last bit of shopping. VVe left Ellis Island April 22d on the small boat Holyoake for Pier No. ZZ, Hoboken, N. J. On arriving at the Pier, we learned with joy that we were to sail on the Leviathan, formerly the Vaterland, the boat upon which many of us hoped we would sail. We immediately went on board and were assigned state- rooms, two, three, four and five in each room. We were very comfortable. Our oflicers and men came on board the same day and we were delighted to see them, as there had been a rumor we might sail on separate boats. We were on board two days before we sailed, during which time we were much interested in the loading of the boat with supplies, and saw much of our own equipment loaded. We sailed April 24th, leaving port 6 A. M. At last we were on our way. The trip over was one delight from beginning to end. The boat is the largest in the world and we felt perfectly safe. At no time did anyone have the slightest fear. We were convoyed the last 36 hours by 4 destroyers, and even in the danger zone when we were ordered to wear our life preservers constantly and sleep in our clothes, we could not scare up any fear. Both the army and navy oflicers did everything to make the voyage a pleasant one and they succeeded wonderfully well. There were three bands on board and we danced every afternoon and every evening until the lights were turned off. The weather was delightful and we spent the days on deck. The boat was so large there was scarcely any motion, and consequently no one was seasick. At sunset the ship was darkened and no one was allowed on deck. If you were fortunate enough to have an inside stateroom you were permitted to have light, but no lights were allowed on the outside staterooms. The nurses were allowed in the navy lounge until 9 P. M. The only hardship of the whole trip was the fact that we had to be in our rooms at 9 olclock. It took just eight days to cross, and we landed in Brest May 2, 1918, at 7 A. M. The nurses remained on board the ship and the officers and men were sent to a rest camp for a few days. We bade them good-bye very reluctantly, we were fearful we might be separated. On Sunday, May Sth, we went ashore and met them at the station in Brest. We, entrained about ll A. M. Rations were issued to us, which consisted of bully beef, salmon, baked beans, canned tomatoes, canned sweet potatoes, a loaf of bread each and jam. The nurses did not have mess kits, but the odicers were kind enough to share theirs, and we managed very well. There were six nurses to a compartment. At night we put our suitcases in the center, and most of us slept fairly well. There was no water on the train, and two or three times a day the train would stop, some- times we would have time to wash a bit, but more often not. However, at one place on the second day of the trip, the train stopped at a place where there was one hydrant, and several, tubs of water had been pro- 101 vided for us. Armed with soap, towels and toothbrushes, everybody got off the train, and there was a general cleaning up. The men shaved and the girls combed, it was really a very funny sight. The train trip with its very novel experiences covered two days and two nights. T We arrived May 7th in Chatel-Guyon, a very beautiful summer resort in the south central part of France. We found our hospital was to be in various hotels scattered through the town. VVe were quartered in the Du Pare Hotel, our main hospital building for the first few days, until a permanent nurses' home was selected. Part of our equipmentcame with us, and we immediately began to unpack and get things into shape. But first, the hotel needed a thorough cleaning, and the nurses played a very important part in this. With pails of water, brushes and soap, the windows, woodwork and fioors were scrubbed until the building did not look like the same place. The unpacking and placing of the equipment was no small matter, but under Col. Carnett's efiicient management, things moved along very quickly, and at the end of ten days we were ready for two hundred patients. But as each hospital train carried from three hundred and fifty to five hundred patients, we did not receive our first train until june 8th, just one month after we arrived in Chatel- Guyon. The nurses helped a great deal in the setting up of the Hospital, one detail marked linen on the marking machine and sewed marked tapes on pajamas, etc., that could not be put in the marking machine, another detail stocked the linen, rooms, another made up beds, and others equipped the wards and operating rooms. A few days after our arrival here, six of the nurses were sent for temporary duty to Camp Hospital No. 44 Riom, a little later twenty nurses were sent to Base Hospital No. l8, six to Base Hospital No. 66, and fifteen to Base Hospital No. l5, all for temporary duty until our patients arrived. On june Sth our first surgical team, which included two nurses, was ordered to the front. I , A At the time the Hrst train. of 359 patients arrived, there were only sixteen nurses for duty, they worked very hard for a few days until the nurses on detached duty were returned. At first we were disappointed to be so far from the front, and our surroundings were so beautiful it was hard for us to realize we were at war, but when the train loads of our own boys came in with such horrible wounds-and a number of trains came directly from the front-we realized there was a war and also plenty to do even in the rear. - T - The American ,boys were wonderful patients, and we are all probably spoiled for going back to special nursing. Not until after the armistice was signed, did we have our full number of nurses. When we were the busiest withaZZ75 patients w-e had just forty-nine nurses for duty. It was impossible to do everything for the patients we would like to have done, but the sickest ones always received the best of care. 102 ' -:Q-5.5 lx ggi, R. ,':.1,,f3 ..1 ' .- . t.1.-.'.:si,-:.,,t,,.- .. .

Our Nurses' Home was one of the newer hotels in the town, with just enough rooms to accommodate the sixty-Hve nurses, two secretaries, and one dietitian. The rooms accommodated two and three persons very nicely. There were large built-in wardrobes with mirrored doors, hot and cold running water, and electric lights in each room. During the winter, electric stoves were in every room. The rooms were equipped with beds and bedding and a chair. Many of the girls had tables, desks and even chiffoniers made with cretonne curtains furnished by the Red Cross. Our rooms were very attractive and most comfortable. We had one fairly large living. room and two small ones. The Red Cross rented very pretty wicker furniture, a piano and victrola, and with our U. of P. pictures and pennants, our quarters were very homelike. The dining room was a very pretty one, our tables were long wooden ones, picnic style. Gur food was always very good, and we had plenty of everything at all times. 4 Before our patients came we had a number of dances. Our Hrst one will always linger in our memories, it was held in the dining room of the Du Pare Hotel, and everybody was interested and helped in some way. VVe gathered wild flowers, and there were beautiful ones growing everywhere, and with our large American flags, Base Hospital, U. of P. and RedfCross flags, red and blue bunting and pennants, the dance hall was beautifully decorated. The music was furnished by our orchestra of Unit men. After the patients arrived, when we were not busy, we had numerous dances and parties of various kinds, sometimes held in the Nurses' Home, but usually in the Du Pare Hotel. 0ne dance was held in the dining room of the Continental Hotel, rented for the evening by the Red Cross. Aviators from a nearby camp were always invited to our parties and seemed to enjoy th-em very much. They gave a number of dances for us at their camp and always were excellent hosts. Also when not busy, we had time for a number of picnics and walks among the hills of the beautiful country around Chatel-Guyon. There were a number of interest- ing old chateaux within walking distance and we enjoyed exploring them. . Cn October 19, 1918, three nurses were detached and sent to Hospital. Train No. S6 for duty. January 7, 1919, three nurses were sent to Camp Hospital No. 45, Aix-les-Bains, january 13th, fifteen nurses to Treves, Germany, for duty with the Third Army, and January 22d, twenty were sent for further duty to Beau Desseta Hospital Center near Bordeaux. j During our stayin France we were allowed seven days' leave every four months, and most of us were able to see some of the interesting cities and the southern part of France along the beautiful Mediterranean. j EDITH B. IRWIN. 103 j Nursing With Operating Teams at the Front VVhen the United States started activities in this World War,t e e ' and the care of the wounded in the Field fact that something had to be done to speed up the operating upon, ' ' f h hos itals was not sufficient in numbers to attend to all the and Evacuation hospitals, as the personnel o t ese p I h M dical Department recognized the surgery in times of activity. Hence, from the Surgeon-General came orders to the medical organizations to form operating or sur- gical teams, as quickly and in as great numbers as possible. The order stated that a team should be composed of an operator an assistant, an anaesthetizer, two nurses and two corps men. It further indicated that it was 7 desirable to have the members of a team accustomed to working together. With this in view, Base Hospital No. Z0 chose two teams, later designated as No. ol and No. 62- Major Carnett, now Lieutenant-Colonel, headed one team with Captain Laws as assistant, Lieutenant Gold- smith as anaesthetizer, Miss Pratt and Miss Bergstresser as the nurses and Sergeant Bell and Private jones as the corps men. Major Eliason headed the other team with Major Keene as assistant, Captain Bates as anmsthetizer, Miss Williams and Miss Landis as the nurses, and Sergeant Dougherty and Private Farabaugh as the corps men. Later, because of sickness, No. 62 had Miss Gallagher as nurse and Private Yost ascorps many Still later Major Keene replaced Lieutenant-Colonel Carnett, who became Commanding officer of Base No. 20. Captain Laws, with Miss Grenville, headed another team. Major Eliason had also replaced Miss Williams with Miss Hume, due to sickness, and lWajor Keene with Captain Edwards. Major Keene had to beleft at the base which otherwise wouldihave been destitute of an experiencd surgeon. Very shortly after their formation 'both teams were called to the front to work. Y The members were told to travel light, that is with the minimum of baggage, which meant a bedding roll, a hand bag each, and ra package of instruments. A p ' Traveling was very uncomfortable, there were, of course, no sleeping accommodations, and only occa- sionally could seats be obtained. Nurses and men alike had to sit and sleep or lie upon the seats or floor, either in the compartments or in the corridor of the car. Very frequently the trains were stopped when near the zone of activities, and 'Hhostile aeroplanes alertw would be given. Of course, alllights were shaded or hooded and covered with a blue globe. The trains of course did notrun very near, and so ambulances and trucks carried you to your post farther up and nearer the fighting. This traveling had to be accomplished at night and without lights. n From this point on, the hardships of the nurses were increased in greater proportion than were those of the male members of the teams. 104 ' lN1any of the hospitals were in tents, some in old chateaux and others in abandoned French hospitals made up of barrack fAdrianj buildings. As a rule, the nurses were the last persons thought of when organ- ization matters were on hand, but the first ones thought of when surgical work was pending. A camp or ad- vanced hospital is no Ht place for females, the hardships, deprivations, dangers and embarrassments are too manifold. The lavatory facilities were nil, merely a flimsy blanket screen protection out of door. There were no bath facilities at all. The men would rig up a hose or an inadequate talcum box top spray in some shed and so get a canary-bird bath. The nurse had to take her bath in her tent with a towel and basin and very often cold water. They had to do their own laundry in buckets and with a limited supply of water at that, sometimes. To dry the washed articles, they hung them on tent ropes, wire fences, posts or trees in plain view of thousands of people's eyes. Very often our nurses stood in line at mess and received their meals in mess kits borrowed from an ofiicer, as they were not furnished eating utensils by the government. Occasionally it happened that there was no table for the mess, and nurses, officers and men had to stand or sit on anything available while they ate. This was especially disagreeable when it was raining hard, as it often was, for orders precluded the taking of food into your tent. Rubber boots and heavy shoes were very frequently the only foot gear to be thought of, because of the rain and mud. Then, too, sometimes the tents were not water-tight and you awoke to find your cot and blankets soaked. . A team operated in shifts, twelve hours on and twelve hours off, or eight on and eight off, and ran three operating tables. One nurse would be suture nurse, and the other would be floor nurse to wait on the Hrst one. She would receive her instruments through a small window or door from a central sterilizing room if in an old French Evacuation hospital. If the work was in a tent, the sterilizing was done over an alcohol lamp. Gloves, dressings, and supplies were very dear and had to be used very sparingly. Our two teams took their own gloves which they had dry sterilized. ' ' The work was hard, and the nurses had more than their share of the load, for in addition to running three tables which were kept filled with patients all the time, the suture nurse often acted as first assistant on the second case while the ofiicer assistant was Hnishing the first case. Later on, the teams were cut down to one nurse and she got her supplies and instruments direct from our central sterilizing nurse. After we were through operating, the nurse and her corps men had to clean up the rooms, which were quite bloody after thirty and forty cases had been done, dry and wipe the instruments and fix up the gloves. 105 Often while operating, the Hun bombing planes would be heard with their undulating zum-zum-zum, and out would go the hospital lights, and the work would continue by the aid of a pocket flashlight. Now and then, the Hun would drop a bomb on the hospital or several shells would hit a hospital, prob- ably because of the proximity of the hospital to a railhead frailroad sidingj or an ammunitionpile. It is generally conceded that the Germans did not intentionally bomb or shell American hospitals. Throughout the operating work, the cry always was, speed, speed, speed, for patients would be brought in by the ambulance train loads. To work at top speed for twelve hours, demanded every ounce of strength one had. For a nurse to fully fill her position with a team she must know her surgeon's technic, his tricks, signs and peculiarities, she 'must act and move quickly, and she must be strong. Slow, frail nurses can work at the front, but they cripple an otherwise fast team woefully. When on the- off shift, in f'push times, everyone wanted rest and sleep, both hard to get for the night shift, with the many noises of trucks, ambulances, aeroplanes, machine guns and distant barrage Hreg but one can become accustomed to anything, even hanging, if one survives often enough. When the work was light the team members frequently went sightseeing over the country and up close behind the lines. Transportation was, for the asking, out on any road, one merely had to wave to any truck or lorry or machine going in the desired direction, and a ride was forthcoming. The American nurse was an ex- ceedingly popular person in the front areas, and the men could not do enough for them. ' Very occasionally in between 'fdrives, when the hospital had been emptied and there was a wooden Hoor available, the nurses and officers who were free, would have a strictly informal dance, most often to the music of an old phonograph. ' '- V just about th-e time, however, when everything seemed quiet and safe, and it was about ten or eleven o'clock at night, you would hear that characteristic wavy zum-zum of the Hun on his wings, and then the rat4tat-tat of the machine gun and the anti-aircraft. Out of bed you would come, and on with whatever you could reach, in addition to your tin Lizzie, and into the abri you would go. At times this happened so frequently, sometimes three or four times in one night, that everyone slept in their clothes. Q There were times when the teams would do dressings in the wards inaddition to their operating shift. Fortunately this happened only when an Evacuation train was in, to carry patients back to the base hospitals in the rear. 'These trains accommodated Hve hundred patients, and were beautifully equipped with dressing facilities and even an operating room. They had a corps of medical men and nurses to attend the patients in transit. , a 106 l P ' .,.. , . . , ,. , Y ,,,, W U, 4 ,fY If:fr---: 1-V 4 -Il-41?----43--Y -YYY--Y Y Y - YY Y 'rim ' just abou in the dark, without falling into ditches and holes, the active Hghting would shift to another sector and your team Would get orders to report to another hospital. Usually at night an ambulance would carry you farther up, and after a ride from ten to forty miles you would arrive just in time to go on for all night shift in the WOfSt Jam Of Wounded you ever saw. Up with your sleeves and on with a rubber apron and into the jam you would plunge. t the time you became accustomed to the hospital and could learn your way around the camp If you were attached to a mobile hospital you moved with it on trucks or in ambulances, often having to sleep on top of a pile of mattresses or blankets during the trip. Perhaps you arrive at your new site at night in a heavy downpour. This does not delay the setting up of the tents and the operating room or tent, and you are ready to work on the wounded in a. few hours. Perhaps in an hour or a day before a patient comes to your place,'the Hun makes it too hot for a hospital or the attack shifts, and you up stakes and gypsy it again. This sort of life soon wears the veneer from one's nature, the surplus flesh from one's frame, the useless things from one's luggage, and puts one sorely on their mettle, to keep an even temper, to smile always and to help lighten the others' load. ' My hat is off to the American nurse who has gone through it and has stuck it out for weeks on end when the original place called for a stay in the Held for six to eight weeks only. What really happened was that teams left Southern France in midsummer with light clothing, the nurses with straw hats, and stayed up front well into cold weather without a chance to get back and re-equip. Sickness only, came to be the only valid excuse for a return and a replacement by another nurse. I tell you it's some sacrifice when a woman will pass through Paris in December with last summer's dress and straw hat as her coverings.

IQS A Tribute from the Social Service Department Of all the ills to which we're heir, What evil could be worse Than Social Service going on Without a Pupil Nurse! Not long ago we knew such woe, But ne'er shall know it more, For our Directress saw our plight And promptly sent us four. Then four more nurses hurried up All eager for the treat, Their uniforms were blue, their shoes Were black upon their feet, And this was hardly odd, they were Not ready for the street. Their little caps were white and trim, Their capes were lined with red, Their hair did not puff boldly out On each side of the head. fFor if it had, they would have been Some other place insteadj O Nurses, come and talk with us! The Social Workers cried, UOf all the things of which we know And many more beside, K'Of Evidence and Alcohol And Underdrainage, too, Of Social Diagnosis and Initial Interview, And why the Murphy family Should live the way they did. 'UWe will, the dauntless nurses said uAnd show us where to find The Registration Bureau, for We have a questing mind, And when inspecting tenements Oh, leave us not behind. Pray teach us the Signihcance Qf each Obstetric Case, Does it concern the Family Or just the Human Race? And if we lack Heredity, Can training take its place? 'fThe Patient is not all the Case, The social one replied, f'The Unit is the Household, and It has a Home outside. '4No, no, another Worker urged, 4'You make me quite distressed, The Unit is the Patient, and ' The Background is the rest. The Face-sheet is not quite the same As the Draw-sheet, you must know, Upon that sheet, the Household stands Alllisted in a row. With Outside Sources close at hand If all is' rightly done, But when you call on Number Two Donlt ask for Number Une, For Number One is innocent And may not see the fun. The nurses heeded all they heard Till they could learn no more, And as each group departed, still There came another four. Long may they come! Though cold the day They'll find an open door.

Then they took us up to a big long room where there was a great many white beds all alike. They put me in one of them an' give me a cuss basin fer vomitin'. Then Abe had to go. I didn't like the nurse that told Abe he'd have to go 'cause she looked as if she meant it.

They was awful careful after that what they give me to eat, fer they wanted to. please me. I asked for an X-ray. They told meI didn't-need one, but I knowed that was what I oughta had.

To this persuasion they yielded, and in a few years, through careful and efficient service, became one of the leading makers of nurses' uniforms in the United States. -Today their products may be found, not only in every State of the Union, but in many foreign lands as well. To paraphrase what Oliver Goldsmith said of the village school master's head: And still the wonder grew A That one small store couldisuch a business do. N . c.1 D. WILLIAMS at co.
