AN AUGUSTA GIRL
Tells OF LIFE IN
FkR-OFF LABRADOR
Miss Marian Smith, Recently
Returned from DR.. GrenfalPs
Mission, Talks Interestingly
Of the Work Done There

Miss Marian Smith. who recently re-
turned to her home in the city from
Labrador, where for the past year and
half she had been employed as nurse
in DR.. ,Grenfans mission hospitals
talks in most interesting manner OF
the great work which is being carried
on there. Many people think of this
work as pertaining to the practice OF
medicine alone but Miss Smith cor
reefs this belief, stating that even the
nurses devote much of their time to
teaching and instructing the women
in the art of sewing.
Miss Smith was semployed at the
northern posts of Labrador, passing
the summers at a hospital at Indian
Harbor and the winters at Mud lake
She states that the hospital work for
the most part is carried on on the
coast in the summer and inland in
the winter. There are five missionary
hospitals and an in-post department
At the station where she was employ
ed over 900 patients were treated with
in a year, the largest number of the
patients coming from Newfoundland
There is much tuberculosis in Lab
rador, according to Miss Smith, and

quent visits at the hospitals along the
coast On the cruiser with the doctor,
there is usually another medical stu
dent, a dentist and two or three other
student helpers.
A large amount of clothing is given
out each year by Dr. Grenfall This
clothing cannot be sold for money
as it comes duty free to the doctor
but it is given out as a remuneration
for labor by the natives, and especial
" for the work upon skins. Each mis-
sion has it's own clothing store, and
according to Miss Smith, hundreds OF
dollars were given out last year in
this way.
The manner in which some of the
doctors travel in winter is especially
interesting These doctors make use
of the dogs, which are harnessed to a
sort of sled called kometik. Miss Smith
says that there are two doctors on
the coast who pass much of their
time travelling in this manner and In
the spring when there is a crust they
can make from 40 to so miles a day.
In winter, however, where the snow
is heavy they do well if they travel
10 or Is miles daily. One of the doc
tors, DIR. Padden. travelled behind dogs
on the trip last winter a distance of
1150 miles. On these trips the doctors
stop with the livyeres (natives) al
though they carry tents which they
can pitch if necessity demands.
Christmas is observed in that sec
ton, the toys for the children for the
most part being supplied by the Unit
ed States and England Last Christ
mas a tree was set up in the hospi-
tai in which Miss Smith was en-
ployed.
Miss Smith is deeply interested in
the work Of the missions and although
her plans are indefinite, she states that
she hopes to go back to Labrador and
again take up her duties. She will re-
main in the city for a few weeks as
the guest of her parents. Mr.. and Mrs.

BEWARE OF IMPOSTORS
Two Young Men Claiming to Be
Collecting Money for That
Purpose Said to Be Coming
This Way.

Warnings have come to this city
from the police in Massachusetts and
New Hampshire cities to the effect
that two clever young men are doing
a great business in collecting. money
for the relief of various persons in :
volved in the war. when as matter
of fact the money SO collected is used
for the living expenses of the two
young men and none others. They
are we'll dressed, good takers and are
thoroughly conversant with the situa-
tion in the war zone. They are provid-
ed with alleged papers from one or
more UNCONVENTIONAL institutions, as
we'll as from some other institutions
and associations. including something
that has the words Red Cross attached
to it. but which bears no possible re-
lation 10 the National Red Cross 81 :
eiety, whose operations are all open
and above board and perfectly legiti-
mate.
The young men appear to be headed
this way, as they have worked along
from Boston to Lynn, thence to New
buryport and Portsmouth and Dover.
In each place they tarry only short
time, seeing some of the most prom.-
nent men and women and those who
are known to be most ready to re-
spond to calls for help without doing
too much investigating. They are pro-
vided with documents purporting 70
