Wilson reported | that new cases totaled 100 on Monday and 120 on Tuesday of this week, many of them being grippe and pneu- monia cases. She said she did not know how the staff could continue to do good work under the influx of the new cases, in addition to the heavy case load of medical, surgical and ma- ternity cases which the nurses carry throughout the city. It was pointed out by Joshua Evans, jr., treasurer of the society, that the kind of work done by the society both in actual nursing care of the sick and in the protection of pub- lic health, through co-operation with all agencies, is of vital importance to the city. In case of an epidemic, he | said, the society is the only organ- ization giving bedside care to pa- tients in private homes. | ‘Those present at the emergency meeting, in addition to Mrs. Davidge and Mr. Evans, were George Hewitt Myers, chairman of the Finance Com- mittee; Mrs. Land, Mrs. John J.
