My aim, right from the start was to have, more people visit Pinecrest Manor or rather to visit those living here. They are here due to no fault of their own, they just needed nursing care. We have tried to describe the building and well kept grounds on the outside artd- then took one section at a time and gave a "word picture" of the inside and the manner of those by whom it is managed. There was just one part that I did not touch on, "The Nurses". There is a great possibility that I should not now, but as I always say about the rest of Pinecrest "We have the best". I will say it about the nurses, too. This strip has always been strictly my own composition and my own thoughts. So if you will permit me, I will give you what I believe it takes to be a Registered Nurse. A person that deserves to wear the cap of distinction proudly. In the first place she must be born with a built-in feeling for this kind of work. She does not have to be the type we have here because there are so many branches they can follow now. I feel she should be gifted with the ability to help a person who is sick to help themselves as much as possible. As well as what she has to do, I believe that kindness and gentle- ness must show through in all that she is doing. I fully understand that they each have a different personality but that in no way prevents them from being a "lady of mercy". One, that if she is having trouble with a patient, will find out why. There are many many more fine qualities that our nurses have. Yes, I believe, that a nurse must have a talent for it, as a good salesman, a good dress designer, a good farmer who can take a piece of land that someone else was a complete failure with, and he can make it produce heavenly. • Yes, we have the best in nurses, too. I have heard it called many names such as "the gift" or having the "knack" or even just plain "luck". But call it what you want, it is what is necessary to make a woman a real registered nurse. I sincerely believe that a nurse having these qualities (and using some of them) saved my life at University Hospital in London. Later, in talking to her and trying in some way to show my appreciation, she simply "poo poo" me and with a simple 'remark said, "That was my job".. I have an awful lot of respect for that little white cap with the black band when it is where it belongs, nestled in the hair that is ' on the head of a real registered nurse. • Sincerely submitted by, • Aubrey Higgins. Gave Travelogue At WI Meeting "World Affairs" was the theme of the Febru\ary meeting of the Lucknow Women's Institute, under the convenership of Mrs. Ross Shiells.
