Some More Department Heads CLASBY Rlsvseiv 'FANAKA TUMULTY The Board of Ijlealth call these men heads of departments. We call them our friends. Mr. Clasby comes to our rescue in more ways than we are admitting for print. Mr. Gus Reysen is the man about the hospital who tries to keep every one satisfied in terms of up-keepn and equipment. In spite of this difficult task he retains the ability to keep on smiling. Mr. Tanaka gives us flowers and bedecks our home with flowers and greens for festive occasions. Mr, Tumulty holds the master-key to supplies, but with exactness and con- sideration he deals them out to us. Mr. Parks is our ever present help in time of trouble or need in relation to electrical fixtures or appliances. It is not enough for a nurse to have a clean heart and clean mind,', she must also have clean uniforms and clean linen for her patients. Mr. Jordan has charge of the laundry and 'tis many a tale he could tell of personal service rendered to us. We are all agreed that: It's just the little homely things, The unobstrusive, friendly things, The 'Wont-you-let-me-help-you' things That make us happy quite. So, here's to all the little things, The 'done-and-then-forgotten' things, Those 'Oh-it's-simply-nothing, things That make life's pathway bright. Pfuuuz JORDAN Page 81
