PULLAR VOT’]‘PR '\[EETS BRI'I'I‘OW New York, Jan, 6.—Frankie:Notter, the Brooklyn welterweight, will = be put to a severe test on Saturday night when he meets Jack Britton, the Chi- ‘¢ago boxer, at the Broadway S. C. ‘Notter can fight somewhat, but it is a question if he will be able to locate the shifty scrapper from the Windy City. It is just that question that ought to make the bout interesting. Notter says that he has a knockout wallop, and he defies himself to prove it, so Britton had better look out! I have known and esteemed Mrs. Maud Pennington and her family for many years. Mrs. Pennington was, as a girl, a pupil of mine for some years and took a course of lessons under my direction in preparation for the associate diplo- mas both in singing and pilanoforte playing—musical theory and har- mony. She was always in. great re- quest as a soloist. In addition to her musical she possesses social gifts of a high order. She has a winning power of giving clear and lucid exposition, a good knowledge of human nature— especially child-nature—and has had considerable experience. All.this, of course, adds to her competency, effi- ciency apd worth as a teacher. She is thoroughly reliable and will, I am sure, win the regard and confi- dence of those with whom she has to deal. I shall always be glad to hear of her success in the art of music, both as teacher and performer. (Signed) JAMES DUDDLE, Mus. Bac.

That beautiful, even shade of dark, glossy hair can only be had by brew- ablility ing a mixture of Sage Tea and Sul- | phur. Your hair i{s your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray, streaked and looks dry, wispy and scraggly, just an ap- plication or two of Sage and Sul- phur enhances its appearance a hundredfold. Don’t bother to prepare the tonie; you can get from any drug store a 50 cent bottle of “Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy,” ready to use. This can always be depended dpon to bring back the natural color, thickness and lustre of your hair and remove dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Everybody uses and Sulphur because naturally and evenly that can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or - soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another ap- pifcation it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy, lustrous and abundant. “Wyeth’s"” it darkens Sage 80 nobody GRADUATE NURSES RECEIVE DIPLOMAS| Dr. £ T. Bradstreer Makes Ad- dress at Exercises Last Night. “There is no true and lasting hap- piness for any of us except by work- ing for some other’s good.” This sentiment was, perhaps, keynote of the address given evening by Dr. E. T. Bradstreet, Meriden, to the graduating class the New Britain General Training school in the chapel of the First Congregational church. It was an inspiring talk and dealt broadly with the work of the trained nurse, touching upon the ideals of the pro- fession, the influence of and the beauty of service. The speak- er also gave many practical sugges- tions in regard to the psychological problems confronting a nurse in the private home which greatly interested the audience. The chapel was well filled with friends of the graduating class, the Misses Elizabeth Agnes Mansel, Clara Belle Fritz, Anna Maria Palmlund, Maragret Veronica Lowney and Jennie Gould. None of the graduates is a New Britain girl. Therc were twenty nurses, including the five graduates and Mrs. Jennie L. Bassett, the super- intendent, that filed into the chapel and took their places in the front row to the tune of “Good Luck,” played by Lynch’s orchestra. Rev. Henry W. Maier gave the in. vocation, the nurses sang the class song, the orchestra played a selection from ““Sari” and then Judge James E. Cooper, who presided over the exer- cises, introduced Dr. Bradstreet, the speaker of the evening. Nurses Recelve Many Gifts. A well done xylophone solo George H. Lynch preceded the awarding of the diplomas by Dr. E. T. Fromen, president of the hospital staff. Dr. John Purney made the pre- sentation of the school pins, a gift of E. H. Davison of the board of di- rectors, and also presented thelcom- panion cases, the gift of Mrs. Frank L. Hungerford, to the class. Each member of the class was given a re- the last of o by membrance from Dr. Fromen, the presdent of the staff. Each member also received bouquets of flowers from the Women’s Hospital Board, from Mr, Davison, from Miss Jennie L. Bassett and from Miss Claire Des- jardin, the assistant superintendent. Each nurse also received flowers from personal friends. Miss Alice E. McBroome, a mem- ber of the hospital staff, sang “A Per- fect Day,” and responded to an en- core with onther song- A selection by the orchestra ended the program in the chapel and adjournment was taken to Booth’s hall where a recep- tion was given by the nurses to their friends. One of the striking features of Dr. Bradstreet’s address was the em- phasis he placed upon the human side of a nurse’s career, which gave the opportunity for interpolating a little humor now and then. After a short introduction in which he spoke of the transition of the graduates from the training stage to the real work be- fore them, he asked his audlence to take some things he would say on faith as no one gets a good perspective of his work by looking at it from himself outward- The Nurse in the Home. “Although the tendencies of _the times,” he said, in speaking on private nursing, ‘“‘seems to be to become en- gaged on the high seas, married in an airship, and have the baby in the hospital, and, when one is unable to work, to go to a hospital and have something removed, there are still a good many overconservative people who will insist on being sick in their own homes. “You know a man’s home is his castle. That castle is ruled over by a queen with a big Q. From a nurse’s point of view there are no humble homes. To a home ruled over by a queen that, like all queens, can do no wrong, you are called because trouble has arisen. Every one in that home feels as if that home should have been passed over when Fate was dealing out ailments and, conse- quently, every one is on edge. Every one is glad to see you, but regrets the necessity. “Your position unique. in that home is You are neither servant nor guest. From the ordinary point of view, you are a servant and fortunate in getting a job. Your pay seems large and your work easy. In most cases when you leave, the: total amount is thought over and com- pared with the wages of the domestic servants and it seems as if they could have got along without you, ! that last week anyway. They will { hope it will be a long time before they have another trained nurse. “‘She didn't do anything anyway.’ “They recall some good old woman their parents had who did a lot more Malt Whiskey 18 BEST FOR SUDDEN JLLNESS “Get Duffy's R e cnmmmnnminid Hospital { character, | RENIER,PICKHARDT & DUNN | "Phone 317-2 127 MAIN STREET Opp. Arch DUR ANNUAL JANUARY CLEARANGE SALE OF SUITS,COATS and SKIRTS SUITS AT $8.75, Values to $19.50.

He probably would have been all right, but we didn’t know it. She told us she had seen worse cases get well. After all, I am glad we had her. It seemed awful swell to have a real nurse with that dinky cap. I bet she wouldn't wear it if she didn’t know it made her look pretty,” and so on. “The Sweetest Thing.” “You are not sent for to that home as a reformer,” continued the speaker. “Every home, like a nation, likes its cwn laws and customs. Its ways may be beyond understanding. You must remember we have each one of us more than a million ancestors and get some queer traits. If you find, dirt, step over it the first day; it may be normal for that home. If you find everything clean and scientific, con- ceal your surprise. If the patient is the man of the house, he hopes you will fall in love with him, and the wife knows he will with you. Every man thinks he is the sweetest thing God ever made, and the wife wonders he isn’'t kidnapped. “You will notice how a man enjoys his first shave, for then he feels irre- sistible, especially if he is the kind of man that leaves his hair as the barber brushes it. His hands haven’t beem so clean for a long time. Ir the wife is the patient, she will like vou as well as her last nurse. There are some families that will make you very unhappy. But there are many others that will make you feel easy and happy, and when you leave, it will be the parting of true friends and as long as you live you will know their heme is always open to you.” Don’t Expect Gratitude, “Don’'t look for gratitude nor ex- prect it,”’ said Dr. Bradstreet. “You will probably get all you desire, but any one looking for gratitude is about as foolish as the politician who ex- pects uninterrupted success. We are put into this world not merely to en- joy life, but to help things along. And if any of vou entered your pro- fession with any purpose lower than the desire to be of some use in the world, T am sorry for such a one.” “In the awful turmoil now going on in the world we are brought face to face with startling suddenness with vital and far-reaching questions,” said the speaker in one of his concluding remarks. “IWWe have been sailing rather serenely under the flag of Christianity, Nations which boasted of following the Prince of Peace and which preached and sang “Good Will to Men” are now shooting each other up with all the slaughter that proud sclence makes possible. Neither Christianity nor science is under trial, put society is. I have no misgivings as to the final working out of civiliza- tion—God’s in His heaven—but I am gure there will be no lasting peace on earth until the principles with which you begin your life work become the key to all actions. There is no true and lasting happiness for any of us except by working for some other's good.” Tribute to Dr. W, W, Brackett. Dr. Fromen in his speech of pre- cutation of the diplomas paid a warm tribute to the late Dr. \WV. W. Brackett. “On ocecasions like this,” he said, are apt, and rightly, to look forw to the future, but sometimes we - not help looking backward for a “we ard | cision into the moment, and when I do so tonight.

I refer to Dr. W. W. Brackett, a valuable member of the hospital staff, who diied last April at the height of his activities, and I am sure that you ladies who all knew him so well will long cherish his memory and remember his kindness, his cheer- ful and smiling countenance, his en- ccuraging words, and also his ability as a teacher, both in the lecture room as well as in the operating room and at the bedside.” “The trained nurse of today,” *“e continued, ‘is as different the nurse of fifly or sixty vears ago as a mocdern hospital differs from a hos- pital in the pre-antiseptic era. We of today are hardly able even to imagine the conditions of the hospital in the days before aseptic surgerv. Picture to yourself the rooms or wards filled with foul odors from supporating wounds or hospital gangrene, the latter practically unknown today: the operating room, where the surgeons cperated expecting to have infection in nearly every wound, where an in- abdominal cavity was undertaken only as a last resort and generally meant a fatal outcome. And can you further imagine a hospital without trained nurses, simple thing as temperature taking had to be done by thes physicians themselves for lack of skilled help and where the ward attendants were of the lowest class, some of them ad- dicted to strong drink and without the least sympathies with the suffer- ers entr to their care.” Ly cenditions and the trained nurse not home, but also in the study cng diseases, her assistance to the physician in the study of the different phenomena in the course of a disease “The socialogical sphere of a nurse's work is going to be more and more from sted Fromen then described modern told of the ot only in the of differ- when such a | usefulness | prominent, he added. only its beginning, decade will witness strides in this respect. Marriage Market Demand. We have seen but the great forward “The training school,” he explained | in conclusion, “is not alone a school for professional work, but school for home work. The trained nurse is particularly well fitted to be- come a helpmate for a n:other. She is therefore very much scught for in the marriage market and a large proportion of graduates enter the married state very early, for the man who gets one of them.” Reception in Booth’s Hall. The reception given by the nurses to their friends in Booth's hall the last event in the graduation pro- gram and was attended by many who had been unable to attend the exer- cises. Lynch’s orchestra furnished the music the reception. The directors of the hospital and their wives and members of the woman's hospital board were present to congratulate the nurses and to wish them success.
