pointed, with Miss NJ. E. P. Davis as chair
man. with limited powers to look into the
subject and report on the advisability OF
the scheme Miss Davis pointed out that
there was no system expansive enough to
provide for the sick and infirm nurses OF
the country She said that there were sew
enty-1ve thousand nurses in the country
and urged a plan that would solve the
problem constructively from the national
point Of view.
While there was some opposition the
majority voted that the Investigations OF
the committee be continued. Many of those
onposed said that nurses ought TO save
their money, TO which others replied that
thrift was not the matter under discussion
hut adequate care of women who found
themselves penniless after a lifetime OF
activity in the care of the sick and inflrr1
One woman, no longer young, who sat on
the platform, rose and said:
Some of you younger women do not ap-
nreciste the awful horror of prospective
dependency. AS one grows older and less
strong the disagreeable possibilities or lie
strike home more forcibly.'

ditional capital stock of the Anaconda.

MED the charges. and the matter may not
be taken up by the High Schools Com
mittee.

lated simply to irritability of temper and
loss Of poise. and that the trouble was due
TO DIR. Lun1ley's nervous condition. Dr.

made because of letters from the parents
of DR.. Lumley's pupils. He said there was
some foundation for the charges, but that
there was nothing of serious nature ana
that all regretted the unpleasantness-
