HOSPISAL FUND GROWING. VERY SLOWLY
Commute Has Received $166s of
$4,000 Needed for Negro Institution.

Committe Has Received $1668 of
$4,000 Needed for Negro Institution.
New Orleans, Jan. 10.-Providence
Hospital and Training School for
Nurses, the local negro institution
which will open its doors January
/, will prove one of the greatest fac
tors in the city in improved SANTA
ton and better living and health con-
ditions in white and negro homes, II
the fund needed to free it from debt
and to supply the necessary equip
ment is raised promptly.
A committee of white citizens, COM
posed of Charles Hamilton, Ben
Beekman and D. D. Moore, has vol
unteered to raise $4,000, the amount
necessary to place the institution in
good financial condition on its open
ing date and make possible the pur-
chase of equipment for the wards.
The opening of this hospital will
give the thirty colored doctors in
New Orleans an opportunity to have
practical hospital experience, and will
supply them with place to take
their patients for treatment when it
is not possible for them to enter other
institutions in the city.
Perhaps the greatest benefit to
come to the city from the hospital
will be trough training of colored
women and girls as nurses. These
trained women, coming in contact
with the women of their race, can
do more than any other agency in
teaching sanitation and improved
health conditions in the community
life of the colored population. 1t is
through these nurses that the white
residents of the city will profit in
obtaining servants who have higher
ideals of cleanliness and will be bet
ter fitted to care for the homes in
which they work.
From every direction letters and
expressions of approval of the move
to assist the hospital are coming in.
Maison Blanche Company, in a
letter enclosing a check for 5000,
has the following to say:

But June Grove sees also the need
of more education helping to solve
the racial problem. One particular
of this more intensive and extensive
education is the training of eolored
teachers for colored school children.

colored teachers for colored children
has been appreciated and to certain
extent met. Yet, did you know that
more than half of the colored teachers
