SISTERS As OPERATING NURSES

SISTERS As OPERATING NURSES.
In the December issue of the Wo.
mans Home Companion is the follow.
ing description of Sister of Charity
who has become an operating nurse.
The work is typical of what women of
various religious orders are doing in
Europe:
"1n the middle of the ward, behind
the long row of cots on the right, a
low door opens into Sister Gabrielle's
Office. The clothes-hanger shows the
only thought of herself which has
place in Sister Gabrielles mind, q spot
less white blouse which she slips hast
lily over her blue Sister of Charity
uniform for the operating room.
In the midst of all these
things Supplies for the wounded) Sis.
ter Gabrielle's young face between the
wings of her white headdress is like
an angelic vision, ready to return to
Heaven. 1t is in this room that she
stops to take her breath at the foot
of her crucifix, when the days are toe
hard, and there found her weeping
after the death of her brother. But
from this room she goes back to he1
sick more serene than ever, and more
tenderly maternal"

cHRIsTMAs-A HISTORY.

In the midst of the rush and excite.
ment of Christmas preparation Ger.
tain questions will flash across the
mind and we find ourselves wondering
why we do the very same things
Christmas after Christmas. Why do
we hang stockings, light Christmas
trees, trim our homes and have plum
pudding!
To understand the origin of these
customs we must wander far back into
the forgotten past-ages before julius
Caesar set foot on British soil, or St.
Augustine told the story of the Cross
to the men of Kent. Hundreds of
years ago-long before the year T.
the ancients, as we call the people
of those times, all worshipped the sun,
the great giver of light and life. In
the month of March they built big fires
to 1t, asking it to shine upon the seeds
they had planted and warm them into
life. In the autumn they held another
festival, thanking the sun for the har
vest, and again, in the winter time
they held the greatest festival of all
to celebrate the coming of the spring
time.
In ancient Egypt, in Assyria, in
Greece, on Roman soil and in the
Northlands these festivals we're cele
brated year after year and Away,
about the same time, the winter one
being held about New Years time.
| Wherever the Roman eagle wa.
found, this feast was called the sa
turnalia and it was marked by univer
sal license and good feeling.
All at once Christianity appeare,
upon the scene. As the policy of tn,
early church was to reconcile heather
converts to the new faith by adopting
some Of the new religion accepted an,
retained many, and the result, as 1
easily seen, has been the strange med
} ley Of pagan and Christian rites whicl
