MISS JESSIE GRAINGER
GRADUATES HONOUR
BEFORE RETIREMENT
Clinton Legion Hall wee the scene.
of a very pleasant gathering on Wed.
nesday evening last when about 40
1, members of the nursing profession,
f), both those actively engaged in the
h, profession and those who have retired,
gathered to honour Miss Jessie
I, Grainger. Miss Grainger is retiring
0 at the end of this month as supeein-
h, tendent of ,Olintou Public Hospital
s,ffter servn'g in that capacity since
1919. The gathering was composed
mostly of graduates of the Hospital
in Miss 'Grainger's time,
The evening was pleesaetly spent
in games and social chat and in
4. pleasantly reminisaing some of the
more interesting things which had
° happened at the hospital clueing Miss
Graingee's tenure of office.
In behalf of the gathering, Mee.
Gretta lVfustarci. Crooks read the fol-
lowing. address to Miss Grainger:
"We, your graduate nurses, have
gathered here tonight to bid farewell
to you as our supeeinteudent of
nurses, If we could visualize as a
whole your 27 yeaws of service, I am
sure we would all say `you have been
and are a wonderful women.' We
know that the hospital which had
been elosed during Dr. Gunners ab-
sence overseas in 1914-18 had to be
cleaned and put in order before the
first patients could be admitted, and
that you, with two girls whose only
qualifications were willingness and
courage, bravely started in to bring
Older out of chaos.
"As soon as the first rooms were
ready the patients were waiting to
be admibted. How well we remember
our first patient, a little Shanahan
lad admitted for anpendeelenny. From
that day on Inc 14 years you carried
the entire eesponsibility of the hos-
pital on your shoulders without
any graduate nurses on your
etaff. We are all better women
for having spent these years under
your guidance."
Mrs. Myrtle Batkin presented Miss
Grainger with a lovely silver tea
service. Miss Grainger, although
taken by surprise, replied in a fitting
manner. A delicious lunch was serv-
ed and a social time was enjoyed by
all present.

Boy Tree -Builders
Along the boundary of Hullett and
East W,awanosh, just inside the vil-
lage limits, there is a grove of trees
bordering what is known as Gypsy's
Lane. In the centre of the grove is a
beautiful beech tree. To a casual ob-
server nothing out of the ordinary
may be seen but as you look up into
the branches you see a veritable
"cabin in the sky" built by four
boys around 13 to 15 years of age.
The floor of the cabin is approxi-
mately 20 feet from the ground and
is laid on two-by-four scantling neatly
bevelled at the corners. The walls,
roof and cornice are all complete. The
It would be interesting to watch
the boys enter their cabin as there
is no ladder, but perhaps more inter-
esting to watch them make their exit
when necessary.
Nearby in another tree is another
cabin under construction, being built
by another group of boys, and a few
feet farther on a cave is dug much
the same dimensions as the cabin and
used by still another group.
All these dwellings, while they do
not relieve the housing shortage, show
great skill and hard, constructive
work on the part of the boys and we
need not worry for future carpenters,
but the contractors who are held up
for want of nails and lumber wonder
where the boys are making their con-
tacts.
