'KDLACEB0 'vw-1 -.nf-, , -1 K , .3 1 rt Li' i hx. N .- 7 , Un the Birth oil' at Babe ESTERDAY morning there was a strange and unusual commotion in Heaven. A little angel, with big, black eyes, and the softest of white wings, asked St. Peter to let him out of the pearly gates. The good Saint hesitated- he was loath to lose so sweet a creature, but when the little angel told him he would come back sometime, the gate was opened a trifle and the treasure crept out. Of course, he came right down to earth, and peeping anxiously around, he found no pleasanter, easier home than that of Mrs. Skin. It was very early in the morning and so he slipped quietly in through the door, and snuggling up close to the lady, said, 'Tm a little angel and you must be very good to me. I will stay with you always and when you are old and weak you will be very glad the little angel came to you. Mrs. Skiff bade the stranger angel welcome, and just then good Dr. French, happening to pass the house, heard sweet music that he knew could only come from Heaven, so he went in and saw the little angel on the couch. ln a moment his keen lance went out, and he had clipped off the wings of the little angel and they had flown back to Heaven alone. This is too precious a treasure to lose, said the Doctor, we must keep him with us always. And so the little angel stays, joy to the home he has found here on earth and a pride to those whom he will, God willing, call Father and Mother. Let us hope the angels in Heaven may not so miss their Cherub that they will say, Come back. But when the sum- mons comes, let it come from the lips of the father and mother on the confines of the beautiful, away over there in the Beyond. -EUGENE FIELD. l l R some l 0 .I ll W mil 'W' l7+lls '

DLACEGGBU Believe llt or Not The most cheerful sound known to a nurse is an alarm clock ringing at six .-LM. on a December morn. Every nurses light is out and room quiet at ten-hfteen IKM. There is always an empty tub and plenty of hot water at the Mansion when you are in a hurry for a bath. The majority of student nurses love their watch, scissors and hair net so much they sleep with them. It has never been known for a nurse to borrow her room mates hose. No nurse likes fried chicken. The student always looks forward to the fall school term. For the past six months each nurse has received her full check at the end of the month. A nurse never expects to be called back on duty. It is impossible to hnd a nurse hungry at ten P.M. The greatest tragedy known is to step into the post ofhce and hnd a package from home, A-X rare discovery-Night Supervisor Miss Reed finding a nurse asleep on duty. It is rather a bore to come home and hnd friend room mate has cleaned the room, fixed the laundry and changed the bed. Every nurse looks forward to study hour. The nurses most favored garment is the hairnet. The probationer fully expects to be first in the bread line at six-thirty .-XM. -M. L. COLLIER.

FLEMING. elle The Supervisors The superzfisofs life is a life of ease But the student nurses are as busy as bees, In fart her job is really a snap While the rest of ns work, She enjoys a nap. All she does is tell us when and about, The way our work is to be turned out. When that's done, she twiddles her thumbs, And sits and waits till lnnfh hour comes. Franz then on out she's nothing to da, Sha has to keep things going tis true A nd at times we re so possessed of the devils She has to do half the work herself. e . We almost run her distraeted Ill haze to admit And if she reads this she ll throw a bad 1 But compared to mine her berth s a downy bed. -R.
