st. Luke's Commencement
Exercises Held at St.
Michael's -Baccalaureate
Sermon by Bishop.

Commencement exercises for the
graduating class of nurses from St.
Luke's hospital training school we're
held at o'clock this afternoon. The
address was made by DR.. j. NJ. Taylor,
who gave particular attention to the
Importance of the profession the young
women had chosen and commended
them for having successfully completed
the long course of training.
Bishop Funston made a short talk
and presented the diplomas to the
three graduates. The exercises were
largely attended, st. Margaret's hall be-
ing taxed to its fun capacity.
That the professional life of a nurse
should be one of sacrifice was the
thought Rt. Rev. J. B. Funston sought
to impress upon the graduating class
in his baccalaureate sermon at ST
Michaers cathedral Sunday night. He
directed attention TO the opportunities
to do good that the great world con-
flict has brought to the nurse. His
text was He Saved Others, Himself
He Cannot Save" and the bishop par
ticularly emphasized its application to
those who choose nursing for Il pro-
fession.
The DOCTOR said Bishop Funston,
should be above suspicion, but the
nurses profession in the home is even
IA higher one. There are grave dan
gers surrounding it, but q nurse must be
strong and true and she must have re
ligious convictions. She must take the
sacrifice of Christ's life as her motive
The cathedral was prettily decorated
for the occasion, the scheme being in
red and white. the class cOlors The
members of the graduating class are
the Misses Lillian Agnes Ross, Alma
Minerva O'Bryan and Vivien Louise

LAVA HOT SPRINGS
'WATERONPROPERTY
OF STATE BL|STERS
Reports That It Is Not as
Warm as Ever Denied by
State Sanitary Inspector
White in Charge.

In answer to many amusing reports
that have been circulated in this and
other parts of the state about the
water at Lava Hot Springs, where the
state owns n valuable health resort
has lost it's great heat. is emphatioally
denied by State Sanitary Inspector j.
X. White who is in charge for the
land board.
The commissioner made the follow
ing statement regarding the reports.
The waters of the Lava hot springs
are just as warm now as they ever
were and the flow is far greater than
ever before known. short time ago
the upper hot pool enclosure waa
torn down to allow for the new build
ing. and it then became necessary to
dig trenches to carry the water away
so that the excavation for the pool and
trenches for the walls could be dug.
I'm doing this the water level in the
springs basin had to be lowered, which
reduced the pressure and allowed all
the water to come out on a lower level
This resulted in raising the intake
pipe for the Natatorium almost above
the water level, allowing a small flow
OF water, with enough air in the pipe
to coo! IL considerably before reach
ing the pool. The unknowing readily
believed that the water had gone
cold"
For the past week Sanitary Inspector
White has had a force of men busy
| trying to overcome this difficulty so
that the natatorium could continue its
bathing while the work was going on
for the new pool. Dams built at night
and over Sunday raise the water so
that the natatorium receives as strong
d flow of hot water as ever. and a
pipe is now being laid to carry the
water from the points where excavat-
Ing is being done which will allow the
trench to again be filled with dirt
which will return the water from the
hillsides to its former level and pos
sibly a little higher
II is very delicate piece OF work az
the waters are very stubborn at times
and 1t really takes generalship to meet
the conditions confronting. But there
is positively no danger of the water
pressure being reduced any when the
work is finished and there will be
greater flow than before.

The bar association met in Saratoga
Springs and the sessions were attend
