Trained Nurses Form an Association.
A meeting OF graduate nurses was held
Friday. June 4. at 1914 I street northwest
for the purpose Of adopting a scale Of prices
for visiting attendance. This is Intended to
furnish the best nursing to people who can
not afford to pay the regular price. Officers
were elected, and an association formed for
the transaction Of business, which, 1t is
thought, may be the nucleus of a DER.
manent organization for the benefit of
nurses. though no plans have been for
mulated. c.
The plan which suggested itself has
grown out OF prevailing conditions. It ap-
pears to be feasible, and has been tried
with success in other eities. The plan is to
attend by the hour cases requiring period
ical attention, making visits once or twice
day, as the cases may demand time not
to exceed two hours and the work to be
done under the direction Of the phy sfcfan
or surgeon in charge,
Persons unable to employ a trained nurse
regularly would be glad to have skilled at
tention part of the time. 1t is believed that
through this organization a Iong-felt want
will be supplied-that of providing trained
nurses for people in moderate circum-
stances.

Christmas Sleighing Song.

There's loving lure in the pine cones ember
When the white frost etches the.window pane;
There's lingering chasm that all remember
In the tender voice and the lifted strain;
But, depite the joys of the dear December
The CAROLS glamour, theYule logs plow--
I'd rather be where the night winds rally
And blow their bugles, a-ho, heigh 20,
Down the valley a-seighing with Sally
Over the cripsy snow!
Forsooth it's jolly unoer the holly
When the feet of the dancers trip in time,
And there's never a touch of melancholy
When the fiddle follows the cello's rhyme,
But for all the fun and for all the folly,
And forall the hanging the mistletoe,
I'd rather be where the night winds rally
And blow their bugles, a-ho, heigh- ho,
Down the valley a-sleighing with Sally
over the crispy snow!

The Beautiful Star.

The wise men came out of the east
Following the beautiful star
And the camels they rode
Were weighed down with their load
Otspices and gold from afar.
They came to Jerusaem's gate
And message to Herod dispatched
Saying, Tell us the news
OF the King of the Jews,
Whose wonderful birth star we've watched !"
King Herod sprang up in alarm,
Anu the seventy summoned at morn,
And demanded of them,
20 King, Bethlehem
they replied, sis where Christ shall be born ;
SO the wise men to Bethlehem came.
Still following the beautiful star
And they laid at the feet
OF the Christ Child so sweet
Their spices and gold from afar.
Then they rev'rently worshiped him there
Though rude manger Graded the boy,
And gave thanks to the Lord
For fulfilling his word,
And returned to their country with Joy.
And the low bending heavens rang out.
While the thrilling. seraphc refrain
Filled the earth like flood
GLORY be unto God
And on earth peace, good will unto menu

viding rows of seats in transepts, etc, in
order to avoid the necessity OF compelling
them to move about These vergcrs so
stationed were not those who had seated
the great congregation, but We're others
seated in advance at or near the places
where they were to serve. In this way
all confusion from stationing of vergers
during the service was prevented.
Arranged in Advance.
"Details OF which men should be beckoned
first which others were to follow and
what should be done under certain contin-
gencies-an these details were arranged in
advance. The two lines were formed quiet
ly. There was never a break in the line.
Each man was told by the verger at the
altar rail just when to retire, and those at
the altar steps kept the retiring line free
from the advancing one. In fifty-five min
utes every man in the church had COM
municated There had been almost no
staring about the church. Almost every
man remained on mis- knees the entire time,
and practically all observed the injunction
not to leave the church.
'In connection with the latter, it should
be remembered that it was for forty-nine
ing communion. and the hour was near .
before the service was concluded. During
the singing of the Gloria in Exceisis, at
the very close, there were not only the
same men in the rear seats who were in
them at the opening, but the same men
were kneeling in the aisles, the latter nee
essary because the church in which the
service was held does not contain 400
