THE PITCANOOK CIQSS PTOPLCCY Cologne, Germany June 4, 1949 Dear Sister Helen, I was very glad to receive your letter, and I should have answered it sooner. I have not told you of my advancement yet, but I am now traveling for the International Bureau of Chemists. As I have not written you for some time, I will tell you about my travels for the last year. I left New York City May 19, 1948, on the Leviathan, bound for Scotland. We had been on our way only a few hours when a terrible catastrophe befell me. It was nothing else than that dreadful plague they call sea-sickness. When the long-waited-for doctor arrived, I beheld none other than our class president, Dr. Ralph Burnett. He has been with the Leviathan for several years. He told me that not long ago Lilly Lay had sailed for Persia as a missionary nurse to assist Elder Harold Jenks and his wife in their evangelistic work. Ralph also told me that Harland is practicing as a dentist in Glasgow, Scotland. I arrived there Friday, and on Sabbath I saw him at the Glasgow church, where he was leader of the choir. After the service, I went home with him and his wife to dinner. He told me that Adna Meeker had been serving him as office nurse for the past year, but I did not get to see her. My next trip took me to the Science Laboratories in Paris. While there, I visited the show rooms of the Commercial Designing Company and here I saw Rizpah Bishop, who is manager of the Paris division. During the dinner hour we went to see her cousin, George Walker, who is a master artist at one of Paris's most exclusive art insti- tutes. They are both assisting in a tabernacle effort, Rizpah with her musical talent, and George in giving Bible studies. My stay in Paris was very short, however, as I received a call to come back to the States. I arrived in New York on September 19, and left at once for Loma Linda, Cali- fornia, to assist the School of Medical Evangelists in making some 'chemical surveys. Here I learned that Richard Smith has finished his medical course and is on the surgical staff at White Memorial Hospital. Los Angeles. His cousin, Charlotte Smith, is his head nurse. On my way to Portland, I spent one night at Pacific Union College. While there I enjoyed the wholesome meals which were prepared by Georgia Madson, who is in charge of the culinary department. I was also reminded of some of my experiences which I had in the academy as I talked to Enid Rasmussen-Lind, who is head of the English department there. While in Portland, I stayed one night at the Portland Sanitarium. I was informed that Jean Smick, R. N., was head nurse there, but I did not get to see her as she was on her vacation at her home in Washington. IConlinued on page 131 I2
