WHEN Lizzie sputters and lays right down, an' you get out, with a thoughtful frown, an' you're 20 miles ;from home; and you putter and fuss and say a prayer an' bark your fingers an' cttss'and swear, tearing hairs from your concrete dome; it's dark and dreary out there in the night, an' y' can't "see nothin' without a light," and your spirits sink 'down and down; you lose your -tem- per, and vigor and vine, till suddenly you think of him—the gar- age man, back in town. • Yost: call him up, then crawl in the car and soon he comes—wherever you are -and starts to work with'a will; he crawls 'neath the car be it dry or wet; and goon hoe's holler- ing ollering "There, all set!"—and you purr away, .o'er the hill. You al- ways feel thankful out there in the night and .mighty obliged to this cheerful wight, this 'scion of the grimy . clan. As a "Friend in need" he's a "Friend indeed," this 24 Hour Service Man. He's worth ':supporting, this "Trouble Boss," and he can't run a busi- ness on applesauce, so here's another plan. He sells GAS and OIL of which you need lots,—and hell give you FREE AIR and also FREE "SHOTS"—and it means a lot to him.—Yes, he'll be migh- ty thankful to you, at the end of the month when hits rent is 'due, and his bills come tumbling in."

Dr, H, C. Wales, who made the presentation, declared that the staff and sister nurses of Miss . Gilkinson were proud of her achievement par- ticularly when it was pointed out that', during her first year in the hospital she won first prize, repeated during' tier second year, and now made her success unanimous by winning the staff medal. Jenkins' Art Galleries, where the presentation was made, was a verit- able garden of flowers 'sent to the graduates andundergraduates for the happy occasion. Scarlet, pink, white and yellow roses together with car- nations, sweet peas and a few orchids were used while the graduating class of 17 young ladies wore generous cor- sages of deep crimson Virginia roses tied with crimson standards. These aganst the white background afforded by. the graduating frocks formed the hospital colors of red and white, while the same colors in silk were used to tie the diplomas. • Mr. E. R. Wood, chairman of the board of governors, was unfortun- ately absent -through illness and Dr. W. H. Harris presided in his stead, He congratulated the nurses upon their splendid showing in the recent examination for which, he pointed out, much credit was due Superinten- dent, Miss G. L.
