The Health Committee of the
Ladies' Literary club met on Thurs
| day afternoon at the home of Mrs,
C. d. Jones. 1t was decided TO en-
ploy Miss Cecilia Jensen to take
charge of the tubercular patients
that come under the care of the In,
Urinary. Miss Jensen, who is grad
uate of the Presbyterian hospital in
Chicago, will visit patients often
furnishing them medicines and prop
er food and work along the same
lines as Miss Lott has done. The
step was taken because the work o.
the Infirmary is growing and enlarg
ing to such an extent that the com
mittee felt that more help was
needed.
