No girl under 18 or more than 30 years | 0ld is received as a pupil, and before a | pupil Is taken into the institution she | must show evidence of a common school education and recommendations as to her moral character. ‘She must also pledge | herself to wear a uniform after she grad- uates and nct to ask more than $ a week ‘wages for the first vear. This school for hurse nected with the West End Day Nursery | The girls have their home in the institu- maids is con- | tion while taking the one year's course| and receive in addition $5 a month. Lec- tures are held daily and and the young women are taught how to bathe children, what clothing is best for the little ones under varying conditions, how to put it on and take it off, and all about diet. The need of trustfulness on their part and the great crime of frightening children are firmly impressed on them. They are taught what kind of stories to tell their voung charges and how to play kinder- garten games with them. In addition, they are given lessons in plain laundry work, plain sewing and mending. Positions are found for the puplls two months before they graduate and the de- mand for the thoroughly trained voung woman is go great that there s no diffi- culty about getting places. Many girls have become convinced that it is better to care for_ the children in a_ well-regu- lated household' than to stand behind a counter all day at $3 or even 36 a week. The number of girls now attending the school is nearly thirty. —_———————— The largest flower in the world grows in Sumatra. Some of the specimens are thirty-nine inches in diameter.
