This consists of bedside nursing and instructing gome members of the household in the care of the patient during the nurses | absence Assisting physicians at confinements and minor operations, and general in- our bedside nursing 175 patients received nursing, and 1,436 visits | were made, Of these 105 were free | visits. Our nursing service with the | Metropolitan Life Insurance Co, fs #eing carried on satisfactorily, 619 visits being made during the year, including 101 calls to Infants of obstetrical cases, We appreciate the assistance we receive from the Company, beth as a source of re- venue and as a means of getting in tough with cases where perhaps our service would not otherwise be requested. Ten operations were attended in the homes, 1012 non- nursing or educational visits were made, 443 of these being child welfare visits to homes, One par- ticular interesting phase of ow work is the Well Bahy Clinic, held in the auditorium of the Public Library every Friday afternoon, for all classes and creeds. "Here the halyies are weighed, in- structions given to the mothers, helpful literature distributed, ana babies referred to a family physi- clan when necessary. Thirty-two clinies were held with a total at- tendance of 381, There were 87 visits to the Whitby sehools and 140 home school visits made. Classroom {inspection takes place once monthy in the publie schools. The object of this service Is to see that existing defects are corrected by the family dentist or family physician. It is imperative that all defects be corrected as early as poeible, since proper physieal and mental development alike are hindered by their presence. "Allow me to take this oppor- tunity of thanking the Medical Profession for their support, the loeal committee for their eo-opera- tion, and all those who have in any way helped to further the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses." The report, after some favor- able comment, was adopted, Treasurer's Report The report of the treasurer, Mrs, J. Waterhouse, for 11 months only was as follows: Receipts --$ 529.39 8389.00 300.00 250.00 Balance 1928 Patients fees Town Couneil grant Board of Edveation grant Telephone refund and calls .

The Samaritan Com- mittee has been doing some splen- did work as an auxiliary to the Victorian Order, such as supplying clothing to needy families, grocer- le,s nurses uniforms, layettes etc. We feel that this Is a very worth while work and the different re- ports give us encouragement to lar and several excutive meetings. Our nurse, Miss E. Patterson's splendid devotion to duty, and the many claims on her time, show that the Vietorian Order is certain- ly functioning as a real benificial organization in the town. There has not been as large an attendance at the regular meetings as one might desire. but the willingness to help when there is need has been gen- erously manifested. The annual canvas was respond. ed very well considering the lack Report Recording Secretary The Recording Secretary, Mrs, J H. Ormiston reported as follows: In looking back over the year, which has been one of quiet but steady work, 1 feel we have much reason for gratitude and sat- fgaction. There have been 10 regu- "carry on' for the benefit of our homes and town at large. The' report on motion was adopt- 4. ' Work of Samaritan Committee Mrs, John Thompson, treasurer of the Samaritan Committee gave the following report of the activi- ties of that committee: "The Samaritan Committee have little to report for 1929, There was not the need in the early part of the year, Coming on to the colder weather, underwear, shoes and stockings and good cast off cloth- ing has been given to the neady. COLORS IN DRAPES ARE NOW FA VYORED The modern woman in planning the furnishing of a room gives much thought to the hangings, which must harmonize in both style and color with the whole decorative scheme. Sunlight and color are the chief de- sires of the present generation. Plen- ty of sunlight is first consideration. Lhe days of closed doors and drawn blinds went out with the stage coach, Window shades are being discarded in favor of sheer, cool curtains. Nets Favoured Of the various materials used at the present time for sindow drapes, nets are strongly favoured in win- dow curtains, The fillet curtains in imitation hand-tied, and in genuine hand-tied are in the more expensive lines, and hung with hand-blocked chintz, or beauitful side curtains, give brilliant color harmony. Panels are also rashionoble in ei- ther silk or cotton, the designs be- ing smaller than in pdst seasons, Many of the present day windows require a panel effect in curtains, and for that reason they continue to scll, For side curtains rayon silk is shown in the most fascinating colors, There is the striped effect, after the Roman stripes so popular in dress materials this year, only the curtain material shows broad stripes which rose into gold, none of the colors vivid, but all of them shimmering and shading into the next one. A silk with a crinkled effect is an- other fabric with which one could ac- complish many unusual effects in a room. The crinkled effect runs up and down and the material could be used for cushions, slip covers and bed spreads, as well as window cur- tains, TO PREVENT COLDS The right dict and a hardening pro- cess may make one almost immune to colds. Colds are often encouraged by the lack of vitamins in the diet, and by a diet too rich in starches and sugars. The dict which helps one to avoid infections is composed largely of cream, butter, milk, fresh fruits and vegetables and nuts, Some common causes of colds arc the dryness of the air in our homes and the overheating of the rooms, the lack of proper ventilation, and pro- Icuged chilling, when not cl re. Colds are infectious and per sons who have one should keep away from others. Cold water baths and air baths are a part of the hardening processes. hose who cannot take cold baths cun at least dash cold water on che:t id arms. An hour of vigorous ex- creise outdoors daily will build up one's resistance. Evidently what Prohibition needs blend delicately from green, blue and clothed | warmly enough, during a sudden] U. S.

This soon has your little one comforted; if not, you should call a doctor, Don't experiment with medicines intended for the stronger systems of adults! Most of those little upsets are soon soothed away by a little of this pleasant-tasting, ntle-acting children's remedy that children like. ry, * It may be the stomach, or may be the little bowels. Or in the case of older children, a sluggish, con- stipated condition, Castoria is still the thing to give. It is almost certain to clear up any minor ailment, and could by no possi- bility do the youngest child the slightest harm.
