the island on the Majestic Is the guests
of George C. Wiedenmayer.
Those who had tickets for today's
outing may present them next Monday.
The fund has now reached a total of
SO, 0.56, and letters which come to the
office daily show the appreciation which
those who have attended the outings
have Of the good that is being done by
them.
On Thursday the boys Of the Catholic
Protectory, in Kearny, will be taken to
Rockaway Beach.
Every reader of the STAR is asked to
remember that every little bit helps in
making the work more successful.

MISS NIGHTINGALE,
MOST NOTED WAR
NURSE, DEAD At 90
Was First Woman Decorated by
British King for Work
on BattlefeldS.

LONDON. Aug. 1~5.-FIorence Night
ingale, known the world over. is dead
here after a lingering illness. She
gained undying fame as an army nurse
and even after her retirement, an in
valid after her work in the face of
great odds, she was beloved, 1t may be
said, by the entire world.
Florence Nightingale was born in
the italian city of Florence. She was
the daughter of an English gentle
man, who, with his wife, was travel
ing in Italy. The date Of her birth
was May II, 1920, so that she had not
so long since passed her ninetieth
birthday. Before she was II, it Is re-
corded of her, she was skilled in
science, the classics and mathematics,
had a wide acquaintance with stand
ard literature and was a fair artist,
a clever musician and an excellent
linguist. speaking French, German
and Italian.
When she was IS she was taken to
London to be presented at court. In
1851 she enrolled herself as a voluntary
nurse In the training home at Kaiser
werth, in Germany. Later she studied
in a Paris hospital, but her health
broke down and she returned home to
Lee Hurst.
When she recovered her strength she
went to work with the Harley Street
Hospital. N institution which was
languishing through need of proper
management. This she developed to a
htOh nOint of ofnafnnrU and hrAtoh4 a.

A oma Task.
The activities of Miss Nightingale
had not passed unnoticed at home, and
Sir Sidney Herbert, at the head of the
Wan Department, said it was a
woman's task hat had to be under
taken at the Crimea. 1t happened that
in 1858, just at the time that Miss
Nightingale wrote a letter to him, ask
Ing that she might go there to help
succor the sick, that Sir Sidney wrote
a letter which crossed the other, asking
her to do this very thing. A few days
later she left with a party of thirty
four nurses to take up the work.
The reception upon her return would
have been great and ostentatlous had
not he woman, who heartily disliked
public show, managed to come back at
a time when she was not expected and
under an assumed name. But the
British people raised a fund of $3.50, 900,
which was given to her. This she &C.
cepted, not for herself, bu to apply
it to a school for nurses which she es-
tablished in London
In 1907 she was gazetted as the re-
cipient of the Order Of Merit for Brit
ish subjects who have won conspicuous
distinction in the naval or military
service or in letters. art or science.
She is supposed to nave been the first
woman to be honored so. Only recent
ly, on the occasion of her Goth BIRTH
day, King George sent her a message
of congratulation. Her friends had not
told her of the death of King Edward,
fearing that the intelligence would be
too much of a shock to her. King
Georges message was read to her as
