The first public graduationAlter- eises in connection with the Clinton Public. hospital, although there have been several graduates, were held in the town hall on Tuesday evening, ,a largo, audience of • people from town and vicinity exhibiting their interest in the hospital and its work by attend- ing. The three nurses to receive their diplomas were: Mr's. Aikenhead, Miss Menary and Miss Ross, Mayor :jacicson occupied the chair and in his opening address he spoke• of. the pride Clutton and community had in their hospital, which he said was the equal of any in equipment and management.' He congratulated. the town and community in the possession - of such a fine institution, which he said had been provided by self-sacri- fice; on the part of the women 'cello took up the project, and of those who had contributed toward it time, money and thought. He spoke ' of the new Ji -Ray, which had been made possible by the generous gift of a former -Clin- ton citizen, and, by the gifts of others who had contributed toward its in- stallment. Ile thought the public generally should value highly the facilities pi'ovided for the relief of sickness and said the services of dos - tors and nurses could not be com- puted in dollars and cents, they were beyond price. Dr, Gandier spoke for a. few min- utes on the evork of the nurses. He said the three who were tonight re- ceiving their diplomas had, during their three years of probatic)l, been most •faitlefel in t ieirwork.' Ile -said touch depended upon a nurse, not only for professional skill but for the kindly, sympathetic spirit exhibited. In a small hospital, he thought this Personal touch was more marked than in the larger institutions, where both doctors andtnurses were to same extent not individuals, btlt cogs in a ; big wheel, each performing duties 1 with ability but lacking the human, personal touch. A nurse he said could so instill -courage into a patient that, in some cases meant the difference 1 between Iife and death. Patients had 1 told hire, he said, that they felt that i the nurses hada personal interest in ' their and in their recovery, arid this , <r d fns interest had h d been most helpful =t o I then. Dr. Shaw presented the diplomas, the young ladies; belting charming in their white uniforms and caps and carrying a y a a msful of flowers, taking their places on the platform amid applause. Dr, Shaw expressed )egret that the superintendent, Miss Grain- ger, under whose training these nurses had been far the past three years, was unable to be present. Miss Grainger, he said had turned out scene fine nurses and here •was a goad sample of her work. •' He congratu- lated the girls on their choice of a profession, saying that it was an old one,older than that of the doctor anci' being older was the mare honourable. He said they would be the better wo- men for their training and eeinincled thein of the great responsibility a nurse assutned. He said the success of a doctor's work was almost en- tirely id the hands of the nurse: that he depended upon her care and faith- fulness in carrying out alders and caring for the patient. Ile said some people' had the idea that the small hospital could not possibly do as -good work as the large one but he'dis- agreed, as having seed nmeh of the work of lioth he thought.a small, well- equipped hospital could do better work than a large one, 'He recalled the work done -in Dr. Gunn's little hospital' years ago and declarecl that • work had been peormed in Clinton Hospital equal to anything done any -- where in -Canada. Dr. Gunn had done nioneer work in surgery, ::he said, :and it was being ;carried on by Dn, Gandier and others. `.`I would' put the Clinton " Hospital," he said, "beside any hospital I' have ever seen:" Dr. Shaw presented •'the diplomas to the gradbating nurses, Mrs,', Mee Math presented pins to'eaeh and Mrs, W. J. Stevenson gifts from the hos- pital board.. And three 'little maid- ens, N0rma Cook, IIel e "Gnn xer an r, Ruth: Levis, presented -them with flowers,uritil they were almost, buried in diem. Dr. ,Hearn also' spoke briefly. ':I e cong1'atulatsd the three graduates and wished them success, in their Career,' wwhich was just''beginning. He said' it would bring them both pleasure and +hardship but he felt they were pre- pared to honour their profession. During' the evening • Miss Marion' Gibbings and Miss Mary 'R. Stewart melt sang a charming Solo ' and each "d to respond :to an encore.
