Brock, Cor. King St. NURSES Bf FROM Be -- yo. Exercises Were Held in Convoca- tion Hall Before An w Audience--Dr. Bruce Smith Urges Erection of Hospital For Tuberculosis Gases. +» Convocatiort Hall was not nearly large enough 10 yaccommodate the large crowd, Frick turned out last night, to the graduating exercises of the nurses of the training school, of the Kingston General hospital. . The auditorinm and allery were crowded to the rs, a arge number were in the hall, and many others were turned away. No doubt next year, Grant Hall' will be secured for this 'annual event. The interest taken in the noble work of the nurses was amply shown, when such a large number were willing to stand all through the proceedings. The nurses occupied the seats on the left side of the platform, with the members of the hospical board on the right. Lt.-Col. H. R. Duff, ably filled the duties of chairman, and with him on the platform were Principal Gordon * and v, Douglas Laing, the latter conducting the opening 'exercises. The following is a list of the nine nurkes who graduated: --Veda Dier, Mella Calder, Annie' Green, Mamie Meldrum, Alice Shannette, Amelia Greer, Gladys Creegan, Beatrice 'J, Nicholson, and Ella Shaver. Dr. R. W. Bruce Smith, inspector of provincial hospitals, was present, and delivered a. fine address, in which he made a strong appeal for the erection of a hospital in Kingston, for the care of tuberculosis patients. Col. Duff delivered a brief address, as chairman, and referred to the fact that the training school was now celes brating i:s 21st' anniversary. He re- ferred to the good work of the gradu ates, and asked that the school be given financial support by the\city. He paid a warm tribute to the 'work -of the ladies in carrying on the work. Mayor Couper was on the programme for an address, bur owing to another engagement, could not be present, and the address to the graduating class was delivered by Canon Starr, in the absence of Dean Bidwell, as the latter could not attend Canon Starr delivered an eloquent ad- dress, and in the opening, referred to the great responsibility of the work undertaken by the nurses. The nobility of the vocation was also touched "upon. There must be self-sacrifice, and this was one great thing the world' was ever ready to recognize. He, spoke of one's fitness for such a calling. he order to graduate, three years of study were necessary, and as far as he had been able to judge, it 'was no child's play. It was something which required great skill, and experience. The speaker = wished to congratulate the nurses on their success, and he hoped that they would. continue to. go forth. and build on the foundation already laid down fof them. He, utged that they ' whemselves build up a healthy so that they would be able to stand the hard work, and so they would not suffer a breakdown in health, The world looked forward to something from a trained nurse, and the ' latter musc recognize her respon- sibility.

In the" "Citizen's ' League Message," recently issued, there: ap] ared under the heading, "Municipal Licenses," a article suggestihg the ' licensing of ali laundries and . reférenoe was made = to tome rather 'disagreeable disclosures that 'had .come to: light in casnection with some of the city laundries. This nid not 'in any way- refer to the two gity steam laundries but to several Chinese ' laundries, whose propriétors had figured in a police investigation soveral weeks before and the com" mittee in charge of the (itizen's Lea- 'gue Message vegret- that it was not mede quite clear that the article did 'not refer, to the steam laundries, + Injured In Toronto. Edward O'Brien, - a former known Kingstoniap, 'who was well em- Nurses were looked fipon as the aux- iliaries of the medical profession. It! was the duty of the doctor to give oul' certain medicine and orders for the patients and the duty of the nurses, | to see that these orders were carried out. The nurse must ever be full of sunshine and hope in the sick room. "Canon Starr said that he wished to remind the nurses of their trust. In the sick room, many words and secreis' would be given, which should never be betrayed. The nurses must also recog- filge their responsibility to their Alma Mater. After Clnon Starr's address, Dr. Isaac Woods, M.A. was called upon to resent the diplomas to the nurses, and before making the presentations, he delivered a timely address. Then fol- lowed the presentation of pins to the nurses, by Mrs. Duff and Mrs, J. C Connell, : Dr; Bruce Smith yas the chairman, and his add¥ess was lis- tened 'to with keen interest. Dr. Smith is» a graduate of Queen's University. He paid a warm tribute to thie work at the Kingston General Hospital, and Vaid that it was one carried on at the lowest figugé of expense of any of the, hospitals* Barrie and Kingston were each registered at gyc. per day. He had warms words of praise for the ladies who had taken hold of athe work. Without the work of the ladies, the success would not have been nearly so great. This same story could be told all over the province, at the different' hospitdls. Without the work. of the ladies, the hospitals might just as well close their doors, but he was glad to say that -seventy-one hospitals came under his 'care, and not one of these liad to close yet, and all were doing good work. + He wished to point put also, that-= hospitals in the smaller places were doing jhst as good work as those in the large centres, like Tor- onto. The day was now passed, when we had to look only to the large hos- pitals for importany surgical: operations. The speaker said that he ho the city would do something to help the hospitals, but stated that such help gould not be depended upon. In Kings- ton, better means were needed for the care of tuberculosis cases. He had no sympathy for the hospital which would take in a patient; and after the case had been diagnosed as tuberculosis turn the patiemt from the door. He was | glad to know that in Kingston, both | Muroduced by. hospitals were Christlike and would { not do such a thing as this. It would | be much better to have a separate build- | ing erected dn Kingston; for the care and treatment of these patients. All that was necessary to carry on the work, was-to-get the people interested. Tor- onto sent its patients tothe hospital at the Humber, the city paid $400 per week. fo maintenance, and the govern- ment, $3 'and this covered all the ex- pense, London, Hamilton, and Ottawa were following the same example, and and the speaker did not want Kingston to go behind in this matter. There would be no great expense in such an undertaking, as only a small building would be required. The air was just as good in. Kingston as' any other place, and if would not be necessary to say that we must go farther away. Too much was' made of the contagionsness of the disease, There was need of edu- sheds pro- {'oyed in the G.T.R. freight is here from Toronto, and will bably remain in' the city. Mr. 0" Brien has been in St. Michael's hos pital, in Toronto, several weeks, as the result of an accident. He was n aged by a firni there as carter and while driving out near the Humber he was thrown out on to the roadwa: when the rig struck a stone. At the time he was able to keep at his work and only suffered a slight pain in his head. ater, it was found that his skull had been fractured and he war removed to the hospital. He has fally 'recovered from his injuries. Clever From Boyhood. Hon.
