By her own choice, that’s where you will find Miss Char lotte Ellen Sparkman, even though her retirement begins on the stroke of twelve. Known and loved by hund reds of patients, nurses and doctors for her bright smile and her quiet competence, Miss Spaceman is leaving her posi tion as night supervisor of nur sing at Vancouver, General Hos pital. The “Happy New Year" wishes that will follow her through the wards will have a special meaning for her friends know that she has given 25 years of unexcelled devotion to her profession. Hey plans call for the open spaces and that "little place in the country" that is the dream of so many. "You see, I grew up in the country in Ontario, so I want to live In the country again," she explains. "I’ll prob ably go to Vancouver Island.’ Miss Spackman's smile is the first thing her associates tell you. about. "She is quite short and always lias a smile—she reminds you of the queen," said one of the senior staff doctors. "I got to know her very well when I was an interne here and I have never seen her flustered and never heard her raise her 'voice. She never seems to hurry but she is al ways in the right place at the right time." "No matter what happened, she would give a chuckle and put things right”, said a nurse, Both doctors and patients relaxed and had confidence that everything was in j order when Miss Spackman was there. | Miss Spackman is an alumnus of VGH and began her training there in May, 1922. She had formerly taught school for three years at Prince Albert, Sask, She joined the staff of the hos pital in July, 1925 and in Feb ruary the next year was made assistant night supervisor. Sev en months later she became the night supervisor. Her responsi bilities have grown with the hospital. "We just had the old annex when I first came," she said; "The infectious disease hospital, the private ward pav ilion—all those buildings have been built since I came. “We worked long hours, too. When I became night supervisor I had one assistant and we were the whole night staff. I have no idea how many there are now. We worked from seven to sev en, for seven nights a week but one night each of us was off duty until midnight." Monday afternoon the nursing and medical staff gathered at a farewell tea for Miss Spackman and presented her with a ster ling silver tray. Miss Spackman loves all sorts of handicrafts and she loves gardening, so she will have full days when she picks out and settles on that little place on the island. The Vancouver Sun Miss Spackman as a child lived with her parents, Mr, and Mrs. Hugh Spackman, four miles west of Dashwood on the Lake Road, he attended Wey- burn public School, Later the family moved to Manitoulin where she attended High School at Gore Bay and later Normal School at North Bay, We join in this delightful tribute to one so deserving of praise as evidenced by the testimony of those among whom she worked and served so well.
