NURSING ASSOCIATION.
Organization Formed to Furnish
Nurses at Nominal Cost to Poor
and Needy Families.

An organization to be known as the
Scranton District Nursing association
was formed on Saturday afternoon last
by several well known citizens.
The following officers We're elected:
President, +. Il. Foote; vice-president,
DR.. G. Il. Dean; secretary, A. b. Dun
ming; treasurer, j. George Eisele. At
torney w. A. Wilcox was chosen as
legal adviser and was directed to pro-
cure charter as soon as possible.
The object sought TO be attained by
the association is to furnish nurses at
II nominal cost to poor persons IN
whose families sickness may exist and
who may be unable to pay the high
wages usually demanded by trained
nurses. The association proposes IT,
furnish a nurse one hour every day for
the sum of thirty-five cents.
Subscriptions for the carrying on OF
the work will be asked for at first but
it is elieyed that later on the associa-
tion can become self-supporting. One
nurse will be employed at the outset
and she will begin her duties early in
January.

Splendid Programme Rendered at
Penn Avenue Baptist Church.

The annual Christmas service of the
Sunday school of the Penn avenue Bap-
tist church was conducted yesterday
afternoon in the main auditorium in
the presence of Il large gathering.
The Sunday school children of this
church have two distinctive Christmas
celebrations every year. At one, gifts

largely the nature of IL religious SER

ed yesterday afternoon.
The principal feature of the pro-
gramme was an emblematic exercise
arranged by the pastor. Rev. DR.. Rob-
ert r. Y. Pierce and entitled. 1.-The
Christmas Message" This was enact
ed by number of young ladies. one of
whom was dressed to represent a pill
grim weary of the world and seeking
the real meaning of the Christian mes
sage
Young ladies attired to represent
wealth, pleasure, ambition. learning,
etc. sought to show these things We're
the Christmas message. but the pill
grim found no rest until a figure
garbed as mercy led to /; gate opening
into the celestial city. The gate was
opened and inside was revealed a cross
from which a crown was taken and
placed upon the head of the pilgrim.
The rest of the programme included
an address of welcome by Paul Benton,
recitations by Minnie Smith, Walter
Harris and Dorothy Capwell and the
singing Of carols by the rest of the
children.
Luther Keller. who presided yester-
day rounded out his fifteenth year as
superintendent of the Sunday school of
this church.
