 Qualifications for Nurse.
 President Williams then introduced E. Oliver Winship, M D., of New London, who addressed the graduates, six in number, on his idea of train ed nurse.
 The result of their examinations is no criterion of their success as nurses, . he said. A student may be able to place theory on paper in book form vet be unable to apply themselves in the sick room. In the first place be a real woman, plain and whole-soul- ed Be dignified, but not sufficiently to make it painful; don't be afraid to smile. but that also not enough to be painful. The sunshine of the sick room is the pleasing, loyal, firm, but tactful nurse Study your patient and adapt yourself to his surroundings By a finely measured sympathy and a wise combination of affection and firmness you will gain full confidence of your patient and the family. Be honest with yourselves and with your patients: tell them the truth and get their help to fight their diseases.
 Dr. Winship said he believed that nurse should be truthful to the patient regarding his condition. Some times the doctors or mem berS of the patients family do not want the pa tient to know his true condition. When a patient realizes that he is being kept in ignorance, he loses hope
 Should Have Tact.
 Another qualification trained nurse should have is tact. You will be liked or disliked according to your ability to make yourselves agreeable. When he patient is convalescing and the nurse has a little spare time It is not beneath her dignity to help the tired mother. The specific for cur able diseases are few; the real cure is a matter of plain nursing
 From your training you will be bet ter women-the eyes of your soul will be opened, and the range of your sympathies will be widened. There should be for each of you Q busy, use full and happy life. A greater bless ing than this the world cannot be- stow. Useful because you will care for those who cannot care for them selves. Happy because busy and use fui, as happiness. means being absorb ed in some vocation which satisfies the soul.

MURDERER ALLOWED
TO SEE DY|NC'N0THER
DENVER WOODS, "IN" FOR 13
YEARS FOR MURDER, MAKES
800 MILE TRIP ALONE TO MON
TANA HOPING TO SEE HIS
MOTHER BEFORE SHE DIED.

Denver Woods, who was sentenced
to the state penitentiary at Bismarck
for 13 years, two years ago, for kill
ing another at Marmarth, was given
permission by Warden Talcott and
Governor Hanna, to go alone to Baker,
Mont, 300 miles distant, to see his
mother, who was dying. The poor old
mother had visited the penitentiary
last winter and pleaded for her sons
release, but this could not be accom-
plished. When she left, she stated
that she was growing old and would
probably never see her boy again.
When she became ill, the prisoner
asked to be allowed to go to the bed
side of the best friend he had on earth.
This was granted and he left on his
journey alone. His only requirement
was that he should telegraph the pris-
on daily and return when his mother
was in her grave. The poor old lady
died before the son reached her bed
side, and after remaining for the fun
eral, he came back. Arriving at Bis
marck at three o'clock in the morning,
he walked to the prison, two miles
east of the city, and gave himself up.
The honor system is in effect at Bis
marck and prisoner seldom takes ad-
vantage of privileges granted him.

NORMAL STUDENTS
IN C0M|Ci0PERA
MAKE GREAT HIT WITH THE
DOCTOR OF ALCANTARA AT

The Independent feels like paying
it's very highest compliment to the Mi
not State Normal school for the pro-
duction of the comic opera, The Doc
tor of Alcantara, which was staged
at the Grand Wednesday night, under
the direction of Mrs. Amy Simpson
of the department Of Music. ~
This was the first entertainment OF
the kind that the institution had at
tempted and the public hardly realiz-
ed that the school claimed such excel
lent musical talent.
A very large crowd enjoyed the pro.
duction from start to finish. A vast
amount Of work had been given it, anG
the difficult opera was rendered flaw
lessly. The costumes were rich and
the acting graceful. a4y
The pianist was Miss Julia G. Nc.
Donough, who was accompanied by
Otto Ellison, one Of Minot's most cap.
able violinists.
The students were assisted in the
play by F. J. Wells, E. J. Isleifson
Vernon Wells, Henry Gay, Major Per
son and Prof. Geo. Altman, one OF
the faculty.
Mr.. Isleifson as Carlos, won much
applause. He possesses a sweet tenor
voice and his acting was unusually
clever.
Miss Alta Madsen as Donna Lucre.

Miss Madsen is a young woman OF

IS flint CONDUCTING
A FAIR CAMPAIGN
ONE GREENWOOD, EMPLOYED
BY STATE, is TRAVELLING
HITLER AND THITHER PEDDL-
ING CAMPAIGN CARDS.

The Independent has positive knowl-
edge that one Greenwood is travelling
hither and thither about the state,
campaigning for Flint for commission
er Of agriculture, and if we mistake
not, Greenwood's expenses are paid
by the state. Greenwood has his pock-
cts full of Flint's cards and he spends
a great deal Of time peddling them.
The Independent has no objection to
anyone working for Flint who feels
like it, but it is not fair to the tax
payers for this man Greenwood, en-
ployed by the state department, to
draw a salary and expenses from the
state and at the same time spend a
portion of his time distributing cam
paign cards and talking politics. If
Flint doesn't call halt on this kind
of work, and at once, it is certain to
act as a boomerang.

WHAT Will We Do
WITH OUR CEMETERY
THE LIVING ARE GIVEN THEIR
PARKS AND BOULEVARDS, BUT
WE SEEM TO HAVE FORGOT
TEN THE DEAD.

Rose Hill Cemetery is disgrace to
the fair name of Minot. It is mis-
nomer. We have spent thousands of
dollars on our parks and boulevards
and this is right, but are we treating
our dead as they should be treated?
Nearly every city the size of Minot
has a beautiful, we'll kept cemetery
but Rose Hill is certainly desolate
looking place. A few trees have been
planted, but at least 500 more should
be set out at once. Sam Hanson, the
sexton, says he is willing to care for
them and he is anxious for some work
to be done in the "City Of the Dead"
We hope to live and to die in Minot,
but we're going to postpone the latter
event as long as possible, especially
since our cemetery is in such an un-
kept condition.
