| In anticipation of what that gentle
mans decision will be, the Canadians
are already preparing the way for an
easy come-down on the ruling OF the
boundary commission by declaring
that rather than give otfense to the
United States the British commissioner
will hold that Canada's claim is I'M
warranted and not tenable and vote
to give us all the territory we maintain
is ours under the treaty with Russia.
Of course, not all the Canadians are
of the opinion that the contentious
OF their government are right; some
of them realize the weakness OF their
case and are frank enough to admit
it. Thus the correspondent OF a Lon
don newspaper, writing from the Do
minion capital, says. after stating that
it was not until within a few years
ago that Canada began insisting that
the United States was claiming 90
much: Indeed, we scarcely regarded
our case as worth the candle until at
ter the discovery of gold in the Yukon
seven or eight years ago, when, OF
course. we desired to control the
routes running north from the Lynn
canal to the Yukon river and Daw-

of the case is a correct and true one.
Some of the democratic newspapers

to the attitude or the New York Sun

Mrs. Johnston Chris
tens Assembly Room.

Mrs. r. d. Johnston, Alabama regent
of the Mt Vernon association, gave a
talk yesterday to the children of the
Ensley public schools.
Her address was the first to be given
in the handsome new assembly room,
and the occasion was quite an inspiring
one as blended with the spirit of local
pride in the completion of the assembly
room was the feeling of patriotism
aroused by Mrs. Johnstons eloquent APP
peal to the children to assist in the fur
nishng of the Alabama room at Mt. Yer
non.
A short time ago Mrs. Johnston ad-
dressed circular letters to the public
schools throughout the state advising
the school children of her plans to have
them furnish the Alabama room.
She has already received many contri-
buttons, and her Acknowledgement of the
donations takes the form of an Ivy plant
from Mt. Vernon.
The children in the Ensley public
schools are greatly interested In the
plans.
In the course of Mrs. Johnston's talk
she referred to Ensley's growth as a
city, and when she said that Birming-
ham might be the tail to Ensleys kite.
the children applauded enthusiastically.

The Graduate Nurse
And Her Uniform.

One of Brmingham's young graduate
nurses In one of the hospitals remarked
recently that she was having made a
fresh supply of uniforms, about a dozen
new gowns of Immaculate whiteness and
of extreme simplicity, and the group of
women who were admiring and half en-
vying her spotess appearance seemed
somewhat surprised when she said that
the uniform and especially the cap, were
the dearest possessions in the eyes of the
graduate nurse, since the uniform was
as significant as that of the soldier, and
the cap was her badge of authority.
And the views held by this young Bir-
mingham woman are emphasized in the
following interview with the head nurse
OF the surgical ward in the New York
hospital:
"A girl who enters one of the great
| training schools of the city-say New
York, st. Luke's, the Presbyterian or
Roosevelt-must make up her mind TO
work like a dog before she earns the right
to wear her uniform all the rest of her
| life-on duty, l mean.
THE New York uniform-you see it is
nurse of this hospital as his uniform is
to the soldier. 1t is made of a gingham
which has for years been woven exclu-
sively for the New York hospital by a
house in Scotland-a soft, pale blue,
flecked with white and checked with a
darker blue. You see, it's quite an or
binary affair, but nobody on earth can
buy or wear this particular Bingham I'M
less she is a New York hospital trained
nurse or graduate trained nurse. Women
who sell their clothes and women who
give theirs away sometimes have the
modification of meeting them on the
street or in the cars; the New York
nurse, never. When a uniform is outworn
it must be torn into shreds and then
burned
This hospital" continued the head
nurse. Exercises the greatest care in the
selection of its candidates. Not every
girl who fancies she would like to be a
trained nurse is accepted. She must bring
to the work education. good family con-
nections, ability, moral earnestness, per-
sonal refinement and an unblemished
character. Even after she has been ac-
cepted and has begun to take the lectures
and do the practical work of the wards, IL
she fails to satisfy the authorities tina,
she is going to be Il credit to the hospital
she must go. Many a girl who fails of
admittance at the best hospitals, or who
is not a success later, goes to one of the
smaller or less exacting institutions, COM
pletes her course and is graduated Such
nurses, although they may be only second
or third class, Judged by the highest
standards. may make a great financial
success, as there are so many second and
third class physicians whom they would
amply satisfy. a @
