HOSPITAL SETS NEW
 OPERATIONS MARK
505 Gases Handled in August,
 Record for Institution

All records for births and surgi- cal operations at the New Britain General hospital were broken dur i ing August according to information obtained at that institution today. There were 3o5 operations. and 6s maternity cases during the month. The previous high record was PAS operations and 62 maternity cases in any one month.
 In line with the hospitals policy of raising the standard of it's nurs- ing staff, beginning next fall no student nurses will be admitted who have not completed a full four year high school course. Graduates of business colleges or those who claim to have the equivalent" of a high school education will be un- ablc to qualify. Until two years ago the institution accepted in it's training school those who had tho equivalent of a high school train- ing. The term equivalent proved too elastic and subject to so many different interpretations that it was changed and at least one year in high school was required. With the advent of the fall term in 1880 full high school course of four years will be necessary.
 Some slight embarrassment was occasioned the training school by it's new policy in selecting girls from this vicinity in preference to those who come from a distance. Many people understood that all appH- cants were barred except those re- siding in or close to New Britain.
 This was not correct, according to Miss Maude F. Traver, directress of nurses. who said today that while nurses from this vicinity were preferred the hospital had no in- tention Of rejecting applicants be- cause of residence elsewhere.
