SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1925,

NURSES GRADUATE.
An unique, event took place in
Card+io's hall last Friday evening,
Sept, 18th, when tbo Seaforth Hos-
pital Training •School of Nurses ob-
served its initial graduating exercises,
when a large number were present.
The graduating class, nemely, Gladys
Bolger, Wilma Scip, Maud Sherbert
and Olive Hackney, sat in chairs
placed about the centre of the stage,
directly in front of the audience. Back
of them, were the boys' and girls'
orchestra, taught and trained for the
event, by the' kindness of the Sisters
of 'St. Joseph's convent, Mayor Gold-
ing officiated as chairman. In front of
the nurses and aacting as a 'border to
the stage were garlands and banks of
beautiful Bowers, ferns and foliage,
and the diplomas .and medals were
p'l'aced upon tables in front of the
stage. These were pl•.esented to the
nurses, individually, by Dr. H. H.
Ross and .s[r..f, MacTavish, the lat-
ter taking the place of Dr, F, J.
-Burrows, who was unavoidably ab-
sent.- The valedictory address was
inade by Wilma ;Scip, whose mellow
timbre of voice, made it not only
very clearly. heard all over 'the hall,
but likewise impressive in its' sincer-
ity. Two little girls 'presented the
nurses with prettily arranged bou-
quets of flowers immediately after
they had received their -diplomas and
medals Miss tCleary, superintendent
and ,Mrs Alex. McLennan were giv-
en large bouquets by 'Nurses M.
Wilson and L. Doherty.
Speeches appropriate to the oc-
casion, were made by Mayor Golding,
Dr. C. A'iackay, Rev. Dr. Larkin and
Father Goetz; Dr, Mackay, who
made the special address to the
nurses, dealt with the earliest stkges
of what might 'be called professional
nursing, He emphasizedthe life
n'nrk of the woman who was known
to the thousands of wounded sold-
iers of the Crimean War as "The
[.ady with the Lapp," none other
than the heroine,. Florence Nightin-
gale, She it was who raised the
standard of nursing in England when
there was no such thing used as
'chloroform. and she did, this seeking
neither fame nor glory. The nurses,
listening, must have realized that a
couch .of contentment oyer something
achieved, may be for one night only,
Almost every marrow brings with it
new problems to solve, new difficul-
ties to face. And the nurse's duty
,i to cope bravely with these and at-
tain still greater achievement, even at
the cost '`f Much personal sacrifice.
Solos' that were highly appreciat-
ed were .sting by Mrs. Len Fortune.
Mr. Dalton Reid and .Mr. James T.
Scott, The Crescent Five orchestra
supplied the music for an informal
dance which took mace after a buf-
fet luncheon had been served in the
hall.
On Saturday evenhtg, the trained
nurses, namely, Superintendent Miss
Cleary, and Misses M. Wilson, Ltrlu
Doherty and Helen Swan, gave a
banquet in the Olympia restaurant in
honor of the graduating nurses, a
few friends and the medical doctors
of town, and Mr, and Mrs. Alex,
McLennan, who have efficiently con-
ducted the hospital since its inception:

CONSERVATIVE •CONVENTION.
of
Neverin the political history
South Huron was such enthusias
{manifested as at the crowded co,
vention held in Ilensall on Pride
afternoon. There was not a tedlot
moment from 2 o'clock when
met until 6.30 when the ball rang wit
cheers for Mercer and Meighen.
Perhaps the most tense moment
,were those in which Messrs: Middle
ton and 'McQuaid voiced their it
dign'atioil at Mr, King, calling mem
hers of the Conservative cabinet "lis
credited L• dlierals" 'because they. pu
their, country in 1917 ;before party.
The writer has never seen,.
sterner indignation present ,in. an
-meeting-'w:hich,,.13 held generally i
Canada, will speak on Oct. 29th, wit
no uncertain sound. They will sa
to Mr. King that he had better hav
remained in the States than to corn
back after the war to sneer a

for their country, or at men wh
risked their whole fortunes for thei
'country.

the following names were presented'

Mr. Middleton asked Mr, N. W
Trewartha, .M.L.A., to take the chair
as he himself was a candidate. In
doing so, Mr. Trewartha said, "It
looks 1'as if we were again going
to win South Huron, it will, how-
ever, need everyone to take off his
coat and work.1
Mr. G. C. Petty said he was not in
the field but ready and willing to
work for the candidate chosen.
In introducing ;Mr. F. -J. McQuaid,
reeve of McKillop, the chairman said
he was one of the best workers of
the..County Council where he was
known as the "Irish orator." and Mr,
McQuaid upheld -that reputation in
his address on Friday. He dwelt on
the lack of work for yotyg g Canad-
ians, which drove so meil'y to the
States, He asked why we spent so
much -money an our schools, and,said
we are only educating our young
people for Uncle Sam. It was time
for change. Mr. Ring had made
pledges in 1921 but not a single one
was 'kept:' He compared Ring's
references to reforming the Senate
to those of Sir Richard Cartwright,
who while stepping backward into
the Senate chamber, kept up the
sante cry until at last himself said
'Good night." Mr McQuaid said he
was not a candidate this time, but
said his head was leaning towards,
J. J. Merner.
Mr, Henry Horton also declined
and gave strong, reasons why the
armers needed protection.
Mr. Henry Salkeld said the coun-
ry was in a had state from the
vent of management on the .part
of the present government, but'

Conservative party, He_ was not a

back to headquarters at London a
report• of the great scene he had
witnessed here to -day. He had 00
doubt of the result. This riding was
already marked clown in the column
of those supporting our great leader,
Arthur Meighen. We must face a
crisis in the history of Canada to -day
where progress is blocked on every
hand by the present government. It
is time for action. -
Mr, LeSueur, of West Lambton,
congratulated the convention. He
thought all the reeves and ex -reeves
must be with them in S. Huron, He
alluded to the bad dream King had
in Nova Scotia which turned to a
nightmare in New Brunawick;,the
entry of Mr. Patenttude in the fed-
eral field in Quebec, and the deser-
tion of King by Gatlin and Walter
Mitchell, Even Mr, Crerar had turn-
ed away from King. He noted how
the great -newspapers were deserting
King. At present only one paper
west of Winnipeg was supporting
him. He referred to the- lack of
business principles in Canada's gov-
ernment. While' countries are
