Club Notes

In the yearly report submitted to st.
Mark IS Hospital Charity association by
Miss Rose Korous. gratifying show
ing of work accomplished was set forth.
She reported total of 426 cases treat
ed, with l54S visits paid, and among
other necessities furnished, there were
2653 quarts OF milk supplied to ailing
babies and tuberculosis patients. This
milk was furnished by the King s
Daughters society, the Methodist
Young Peoples Sunday school class, the
-Sectarian Charity league, and pri-
vate individuals.
IN summing up her report, Miss kor"
Gus said:
No organization employing pub
lie nurses can, by It's report IN f1g-
ures, show what services have been
given to the public aside from ale
Waiting pain or sickness. The un-
recorded work is prevention Of
sickness The value of this work
is not usually recognized, and is
therefore but little appreciated.
The pioneering stage in this city
has been passed, and I rejoice today
to announce that there are now
four nurses in the field instead Of
one as last year. Two of these are
school nurses, who are giving
such satisfactory service that the
public is demanding an increase In
numbers.
No small amount Of credit, in
demonstrating the value OF public
health nursing should be given to
st. Marks Hospital Charity asso-
citation. and to the Non-Sectariau
Charity league that co-operates so
splendidly.
The doctor may prescribe and the
nurse administer medicine or treat
ments. but no effective cure is ac-
complished unless the patient is
properly fed and clothed. The sue
cess of our wears work was de-
pendent upon the cooperation Of
the societies and individuals al
ready mentioned.
With the inc creased number Of
workers my work continues to en-
large, and neither time nor
strength will permit me to respond
to all cans An urgent want is
nurse TO assist with the work.
