In former years, under Mrs. W. C. Hungerford’s supervision, the enter- tainment for the nurses was one dance during the winter at the Y. W. C. A. Last fall, in 1920, Dr. Reeks and Miss Graham, the supervisor of nurses, suggested that there be more enter- tainment for the nurses. These should be simple and held almost every Sat- turday evening in the nurses’ own par- lors or club rooms. After deliberation and discussion by the committee of ladies, these meet- ings, or Saturday entertainments, were planned for three Saturdays out of each month and took the form of a musical evening, an evening devoted to reading and current events led by Mrs. H. B. Humason and assisted by Mrs. Walter Hart. The third evening was used for dancing and games in charge of the nurses themselves, with our help. Our musical evenings were siven through the courtesy of our musical friends in the city. Miss Frances Parker and Mr. Gal- and willingness to help.

About March 1st, 1920, a ictter was sent out to 42 churches—27 in New Britain, 8 in Plainville and 7 in Ber- iin and Kensington. * The text of the letter was as follows: The officers and directors of the Woman's Hospital Board of the New Britain general hospital have voted to ask each church interested to un. dertake its share in supplying the linens needed during the year 1920. The list of requirements enclosed has been furnished by the matron®of tne hospital and it is hoped that the cambined efforts of all the churches “vill be adequate for these needs.

Learned, secretary: To the Members of Board: I have the honor of presenting to ou the secretary’s report for °the ear 1920-1921. The year we have just completed will always be a red-letter year in r’k anpale #f anr haspticl ‘dar sinee the Woman's v y our last annual meeting in October, 1920, money has been raised, and the ground broken for our new building. In common with all branches of the work the woman’s board rejoices and has gained new enthusiasm for better service. For some time past all reports from the hospital have had a keynote of distress on account of crowded con- ditions and inadequate equipment, and although these conditions, some- what alleviated this .year by more space and careful planning—are in the main still in existence, we know that in every department splendid | work has heen done. Our regular weekly visitors have invariably brought back reports to this effect. Mrs. W. C. Hungerford has had charge of this part of the work and her re- port will show that many ladies have made these careful, sympathetic visits of inspection. The very courteous treatment and cordial welcome they have always received has been es- pecially noted. In all’ our work through the year we have followed to a great extent the routine of the past and have tried to supplement the work of the men and to supply as much help as we could in the ways we are best fitted to do. Two varia- tions from this routine, however, may be noted.

Besides the ten Saturday evenings in the parlors, two dances were given at the house of the chairman. An orchestra and refreshments were pro- vided by the ladies’ board, and our committee and some friends. Messrs. N. P. Cooley and George Hart. Besides the entertainments, our committee provided flowers and greens for the nurses dining room on Thanks- giving and Christmas. The first entertainment was given Saturday, December 4th, and these Saturday night affairs continued until April 16th. During October and November, be- .fore our meetings began, it was sug- gested that the nurses’ parlors have some additions, i the way of pictures and plants and dishes and a victrola. Our committee took hold of this work and ‘accomplished it in a short time. The nurses’ committee and the Aadies’ board paid for everything that was not donated, and the parlors were much improved. The committee appointed for this work of entertainment is called the nurses’ committee and during ~1920 and 1921 was composed of: Mesdames H. B. Humason, J. B. Wilbor, George Kimball, Walter Hart, George Hart, J. E. Coopér, Allen Mc- Kinnie, E:. H. Cooper, chaiman. I cannot thank the committee ~nough for all that it has doge.

The second variation was the greatly increased activities of the nurses'’ committee in charge of Mrs. E. H. Cooper. Our treasurer's report will show that our finances are in good condition. The money from our two new life memberships has been added to the children’s free bed fund. The Jane Case and Citizens’ free bed fund have been used to the li.alt.

The bi-monthly meetings of e executive board have been held regu- larly with good attendance. The meetings of the executive committee have been held on the al- ternate months. At these times re- ports have been read, plans have been made and problems discussed and often solved and a splendid spirit of co-operation m:aintained through- out the year. At one of our meetings Dr. Reeks accepted an invitation from our president to speak to the ladies about the plans that had been made for conducting a campaign for the rais- ing of $600,000. His optimistic hopes were as you know fully jus- tified. Dr."Reeks also gave a very interesting outline of the building plans. As in past years, flowers were ‘serit to the graduating nurses at com- mencement time. We feel that this custom not only brightens the occa- sion. but shows our interest and good wishes.
