Interesting reports covering the work

According TO the report submitted by
Miss Minor the district nurses made
1888 visits during the four .munths,
which was an increase OF nearly 1850
over the corresponding period OF 1913
The nurses visited 1,G7G patients, as
compared with 1903 last year. of which
1893 were new, as compared with IO40
during the proceeding summer The
nurses were on duty from s o'clock in
the morning until o'clock III night
with an hour for dinner, and Sunday
was as busy as any other day. In spite
of-the intense heat, not n call went UNI
answered, no matter how heavy the
work was.
Miss Minor reports tina, there have
been two designations from the staff
Miss Bland and Mrs. Schneider Their
places have been filed by Miss Ingram
and Miss Walton. the latter having

Miss Minor recommends the employ
ment OF an additional nurse, the work
peine now entirely too heavy for the
star. While annexation means an adj
ditional area Of seventeen miles and

also desires the association to have
