Oshawa General Hospital is observ ing "National Hospital Day," and all citizens are cordially invited to visit there on May 12th. when all depat- ments will be open for inspection." These hospitals that you visit are, themselves, monuments to the mem- ory of Florence Nightingale, the wo- man whose name has become a syms- bol that is everlasting, for the lamp she carried through the wards of Scutari still shines brightly in the hands of each generation of trained nurses, The story of Florence Nightingale is too well known to need repeating. In 1915, at Waterloo Place in London, there was unveiled a new statuary group, a memorial to the Crimean War, and one of the figures in the heroic group was that of a nurse, the lady with the lamp, Florence Nightingale. This was the first pub lic statue to a woman in London with the exception of a few to members of the royal family. It was at Scu- tari, near © Constantinople, in 1854, that Florence Nightingale first brought comfort and healing to the British soldiers, and all down the years nurses haye bravely followed in her path. In 1856, when the war ended, Florence Nightingale returned to. England,.and training schools for 'nurses were established through the efforts of wives and mothers of men she had nursed back to life in Scutari Her own health had broken down during the strain, though, and until her death in 1910, she was an invalid. A pretty romance in connection with Florence Nightingale, and one not generally known, is one in which a small town in our own land and province figures. In St. John's Ang- lican Church in Elora there is a trea- sured Communion set which was sent by Florence Nightingale to it's one time rector, the Rev. John Smith- hurst. Mr. Smithhurst, who was a cousin of 'the lady with the lamp", had wanted to marry her but, know- ing that she was sorely needed in her work, she refused him and bade him go as a missionary. He settled in Elora, but always maintained a correspondence with Florence Night- ingale. Hence the gift of the Com- munion Set, There is a monument to his memory in the old church yard at Elora, and many nurses have gone there to partake of Communion from the treasured set. Show your appreciation of her work by visiting and taking an in- terest in your own hospital wherever it may be, thus keeping alive the memory of the wonderful work for mankind of the "lady with the lamp." en were winners of the two first prizes and Mrs. M.

Two of these were young ladies from Oshawa, Miss Rose Hawkes and Miss Ida Arnott. Two years ago, when travelling from New York to Australia, Miss Hawkes met Ignace Padere- wiski, the noted musician, who was on the same boat. On Wednesday evening one of hundreds who crowded to the stage at the close of the concert, Miss Hawkes was recognized by Mr. Padere- wgki, the noted musician, who said immediately, "You must see Paddy." He led the way to a little room off the stage that guarded heav- ily on the outside and where, inside, the great artist was meeting only a very few of his Toronto acquaintances. "You remember Miss Hawkes," said Mr. Joubert. "Oh, yes!" answered Pad- erewski and cordially shook hands with his Canadian friend. Miss Arnott, who ac- companied Miss Hawkes to the coucert was also intro- duced to him. For five. or ten minutes, the Oshawa la- dies chatted with the famous piapist. The artist appeared very tired after the strenuous work of the evening. He had played almost steadily for two hours and forty minutes.

HEADACHES Ended by Kruschen "I was a martyr to headaches, with frequent attacks of dizziness affecting my vision. My occupation is a very sedentary one--a printer's reader. I gave Kruschen Salts a good trial, and from then onwards I seemed quite another person. The headaches dis- appeared and the dizziness, and the most wonderful thing to me 'is that I have gone back to weaker glasses, a lens which I had discarded some years ago as not being strong enough. I also suffered from bad circulation durng the early morning of winter. Now at 58 I can enjoy cold baths all the year round, enjoy and am eager for my food, and am what I consider very fit--the sort of fitness that makes living a joy."--(G.F.) Headaches can nearly always be traced to a disordered stomach or to partial constipation -- a complaint many indoor workers suffer from without ever suspecting it.

Especially is this true in the school of life, which is a school that everybody attends from the least to the greatest. With the little people of the Green Meadows, the Green . Forest, the Smiling Pool and the Laughing Brook,, failure to learn needed lessons very early in life is sure to mean ® very short life. It was that way with the smart young Flicker who was caught and carried away by Sharpshin the Hawk. He had been so sure of his own smartness that he had not done as his mother had warned him to do, with the result that there were now but eight children in the family of Yellow Wing and Mrs. Yellow Wing. His brothers and sisters had seen the foolish young Flicker tak- en, and it had made a great im- pression. It was their first great lesson in life, a sad one hut one they never forgot. When Mrs. Yel- low Wing returned they all tried to tell her at once what had hap- pened. "It ic very sad," said she sorrow- fully. "It is very sad, but I was afraid it might happen.

To wait to find out if there is real danger may be to wait too long, as was the case with your brother. I think you have learned this les- son, 80 we will say no more about it now, for there are many things you still have to learn before you will be fitted to go out into the great world alone." "If you please," spoke up a young Flicker, "when can we leave this pole?" "I was coming to that," said Mrs. Yellow Wing. "That Hawk is likely to return the next time he is hungry and I think it will be just as well if you are somewhere else. You have learned all you can on this bare pole. You have learned how to use your feet and tails in climbing and how to dodge. Now it is time for you to learn to use your wings in flight and your eyes, bills and tongues in getting food. Here comes your father and if he says 80, we'll all move over to the Old Orchard." Yellow Wing was told what had happened and he agreed that the time had come for the family to move. He led the way to the near- est tree and one by one the thil- dren followed. It took some of the more timid some time to make up their minds to trust themselves to those untried wings, hut finally the last one was in the tree. It being their first experience in a tree, they wanted to climb all over it. It was fun to venture out on branches. They liked the feel of the bark. They liked the shade of the branches. It was all so new and wonderful. But Yellow Wing and Mrs. Yel- low Wing were anxious to get them over to the Old Orchard, so pres- ently they flew to the next tree and then to the next and so oun until they reached the Old Orchard. By this time they were tired and were wisely given a long rest. In the afternoon they were taken down on the ground and shown an ants' est.
