MOST VALUABLE IMMIGRANTS.

England Is being made uneasy by e
discovery that a large number OF its
skilled artisans have become discOn-
tented and emigrated 10 other coun-
tries. America may take a politely
sympathetic attitude. but IL cannot be
much grieved thereat II Is reasonable
10 suppose that a large Part OF these
trained workers have come TO the
United States. Many of the British
artisans have settled in Canada a few
have gone 10 Australia It is rea sOnably
certain that most OF them have settled
IN the United States where they viii
become citizens. II they have not al
ready done so. This is the class Of i'm
migl alton that IS most welcome. The
skilled artisans give more than value

become qualified 10 be good citizens.

TRAINED HOSPITAL NURSE.

before graduating class of trained
The Trained Nurse as a Factor in
Modern Life paid this eloquent tribute
to this profession. He said in part:
The evolution which has produced
our modern social life. with it's peculiar
evils. has brought with il also one new
panacea. Many OF us nave viewed with
alarm the passing OF the old-fashioned
homes, occcsioned by a Capitalization
of populaticF il, metropolitan cities. and
the change1 ideals which are coincident
with the increasing wealth and luxury
of our people. over against these tend
encies, which are as evil as undeniable.
among many others is one which is
worthy of consideration, product of
our modern conditions, namely. the
trained hospital nurse.
This new woman viii play by no
means insignificant part in our future
higher life, moral, political and social
'''The tendency Of the nurses life is to
produce woman who is the direct op-
posite Of the butterfly of fashion, the
vain ard frivolous derotee of the ball
room the wine glass. the bridge whist
table, and. sad to say, the cigarette
case. As we observe the growth of the
latter class. which will be worth as
much to the future life of the nation
as a plague in the bones. II is good to
perceive also the rapidly increa sing
thousands of trained nurses throughout
our country
my association with these young
women in the practice of my profession
makes it plain to me that I am indulg-
ing in no chin srical theorizing when I
assert the possibility of great spiritual
influence which is within the power of
this class I have often come into con-
tact with godly nurses in our hospitals.
character and equipment make it easy
to entertain the highest hopes OF the
conserving influence of the new profess
sion upon our modern American life."
