C, and Lon- don, Conn. The Visiting Nurse association of Evanston has been in existence for sixteen years. In 1897 a mother, who had recently been bereaved, feeling that she would like to commemorate the memory of her daughter in some worthy manner, called a number of women, experienced In charity work, together for a consultation and asked their advice as to the need of a visit- ing nurse among the sick poor. of Evanston. It was thought to be a splendid idea and the work that was carried on by the first nurse, who was supported for six months by Mrs. R. B. McMullen, made this endeavor so indispensable to the city that th*> women were determined that the proj- ect should become permanent Thus the Visiting Nurse association had its inception, with Mrs. C. H. Chand- ler as its president, and Mrs. P. C. Lutkin, treasurer and secretary. Its present officers are: Chairman and treasurer, Mrs. P. C. Lutkin and sec- retary, Mrs. W. C. Fabian. Miss Fsltz First Nurse. Miss Faltz was the nurse chosen to inaugurate the work. The present visiting nurse, Miss Harriet Ely, has had charge of the work for two years. The practical value of a visiting nurse to the community la recognised by an annual appropriation from the city council and by donations from the various churches and organiza- tions of the city. These sources of income, however, have not been suf- ficient to defray entirely the expense of maintenance, and each year cir- culars telling about the visiting nurse and the association are sent to Indi- viduals soliciting their support A play, called "Thursday," written by Mrs. Guy S. McCabe, and played by prominent Evanstonians, will be given to raise funds to meet this year's de- ficit This play, a two-act farce, will be given Thursday evening, at 8:15 o'clock at the Woman's club house. No Charge for Service. The nurse goes anywhere within the limits of Evanston, tree of charge, except where patients prefer to pay a small fee. The certainty that the services of the visiting nurse may be relied upon in time of need to bring aid and comfort relieves a strain, the intensity of which can scarcely be appreciated by those in more inde- pendent circumstances. The visits of the nurse bring bur in close social contact with her patients and she thus becomes intimately acquainted with existing conditions, a knowledge that is invaluable to the various phil- anthropic agencies. Clinic cases, chronic cases and sick- nesses of every nature, except con- tagious' diseases, are cared for by the visiting nurse, and where the services of a doctor are not necessary she saves the patient ue expense of one and also saves the doctors' time, who «....., . erred to them. Severe tabs*. cular cases are sent to testltatlons. buf the less dangerous cases are cared for at home, the nurse teaohlng flm need of proper nourishment, sanita- tion and ventilation. It is encourag- ing to note the decided decrease In the number of tubercular cases each year. In 180$, five out of thirteen tubercular patients died; in 191Q, Ave out of fifteen: in- 1*11, two out of nine, while in 1911, three out of tea. Interesting ttatietlcc. _ The following statistics may provs of interest: During 1912 there were 403 new patients reported to the vis- iting nurse and ^administered to by her. Five hundred* and ninety-nine pa- tients were visited and 2,681 ealls made. There were seventy-six births and eight deaths. Thirteen patients received medical aid at the Evanston hospital and three at St Francis. $2,000,000 GIFT FOR NORTHWESTERN A gift of $2,000,000 to the univer- sity is expected to be announced at the coming commencement exercises of Northwestern. The sum will be applied to the endowment fund, bring- ing its total up to more than $11,- 000,000. Dr. A. W. Harris, president of the university, has declined to give tho exact amount or the names of the principal donors. "The conditions of the pledges are such that no information can be given for at least a month," he said. A year ago there was some talk of an effort to persuaoe the Methodist conference to abandon the effort to establish Its American university at Washington, D. C, owing to the need of asking the conference to reconsid- er its ultimatum that the institution could not start until a 15,000,000 en- dowment should be citaitol. Instead of going to Washington the money was to be diverted to Northwestern. This plan is believed to have fallen through, however, as the American university appears to be getting more support, with a good share of the to- tal endowment raised, two of the halls erected, the street car line ex- tended to its campus, and other ar- rangements made. VOLMEY A. FOSTER TO LIVE IN UKE FOREST Volney A. Foster, wno formerly re- sided at 1014 Greenwood boulevard, Evanston, and, who during the winter was married, Is planning on taking his bride to Lake Forest for the sum- mer. They have leased the home of Mr. and Mrs. Franklin Corning Ken- ly, the latter having arranged to spend the next six months on their ranch In Medford, Ore. Mrs. Foster was formerly Miss Baxter of Tennessee, a sister of Mrs. Baxter-Tevis,of New York and Paris, one of a quartet of sisters noted for their beauty and brilliancy. After their wedding Mr. and Mrs. Foster visited Cuba and Panama and had contemplated a trip to Mexico when the revolutionary troubles caused them to return to Chicago. The young couple have been much feted by Chicago and North Shore so- ciety folk since their return from their wedding trip.

The new club house is a credit to Evanston. The members of the club are ever active in the Interests of the community.
