NLORENCE NIGHTINGALE, who
Il for the past fifty years has been
one of the best known women in the
world and whose name has been synO-
nymous with all that is noble and self
sacrificing, has just been vested by
King Edward with the Order of Mer-
it. This order was created I'm 1902 by
King Edward for the recognition Of
especially distinguished services in all
walks of life.
Miss Nightingale is the first woman
to receive this honor and only nine
teen men have been thus recognized.
Florence Nightingale was the pio-
neer in the profession of trained nurs-
ing and it is partly through recOgni-
ton of her success that it has reached
its present high standard In 1854 she
went out with the British army, re-
naming when it went TO the Crimea,
at the base hospital on the Heights Of
Scutari, opposite ConstantinoDle,
where her devoted work has made her
name famous. She is an Englishwo-
man but her knowledge Of nursing
was gained partly in Germany and
partly from the Sisters of st. Vincent
de Paul. She is now eighty-seyeD
years old

Comedy characters like Germany
and Reddy in ION the Bridge al
Midnight" are hard to match, and
the excellent company that the
k.mt and Gazzolo company have
provided this year for their famous
scenic drama should make these
two hits as enjoyable as ever. The
bridge scene will be given elabo-
rately and faithfully. and shows
what the combined skill of scenic
artist, stage carpenter, dlramatist.
and producer can do with the re-
sources of the modern stage. The
m ngling Of humOr and pathos i'm
this play is as remarkable as the
chief scene. and the story of the
blind mother seeking her stolen
child is so fashioned that for the
deeply interested audience that
great bridge lifting it's valves to let
steamer pass, is only an incident
alter all. There is laudable effect
shown in this play to avoid the
cheap effects Of reckless, sensation
al melodrama. There are many
characters beside the professor and
the bootblack that appeal to all.
