never found in the big wards out
there. They are given private
rooms. That is the arrangement in
most of the institutions. The idea
is that all Greeks are happy to-
gether, all Jews, and so on, when
they are ill. We are not the first
to observe that suffering makes
comrades of us ALL We are not
complaining or criticizing hospital
arrangements-just writing, that's
all. We do hear of some splendid
friendships being formed between
patients of different races, and
think it fine.
We hope our ex-patients forgive
US when we do not recognize them
on the street. 1t is remarkable
what a difference a hospital night
shirt makes in ones appearance.

From the Nurses. Notebook

From the Nurses Notebook
The good reports from the vari-
Gus institutions added to our en-
joyment of the cool days last week.
General Hospital released our fif-
teen-year-old boy, Herbert Rice,
who has been such "Stout Fella"
throughout his long confinement
there. Little Curtis Stevenson was
also released after a short stay.
Mrs. Ida Taylor and baby girl have
gone home. Herbert Jones stayed
from the thirteenth to the nine
teenth. Elma Byers and Frances
Stone were admitted last week and
may tarry there a while. Mrs.
Leah Peal remains quite i'll.
Mrs. Beulah Stevens at Univer-
sity continues to improve.
Our friends at Parkview are all
doing fairly well. Mrs. Fannie
Banks and Sally Bailey are the
most seriously i'll out there.
When we inquired at the Wom-
ems Detention Home we were told
there were six of OUR women
there. We found three of our
group and three INDIAN women.
Seems as though when Indian
women are naughty they belong to
US. Thanks to our years of train
ing, we can take what is heaved on
US and grin and bear it.
The only cloud in our week of
smooth sailing is the rumor that
two more of our south side boys
will spend some time out at Glen
Lake Farm. Hope faint so.
The Veterans are doing as we'll
as can be expected. Our boys are

LIZ AAC GA4kOA
Dear Sir:
Having had the pleasure of read
ing copy of your paper and con-
ferring with your reporter, / feel
that your paper will be of value in
any community, and I wish to re-
fer to many real incidents that
have occurred in st. Paul, in a
business way. There have been so
many families that have made
homes for themselves in the sub
urbs of st. Paul. Since these
people are educating their children
in the beautiful rural districts,
they would no doubt appreciate a
good Negro paper.
Mr.. and Mrs. James w. Curtis,
Route 2, have purchased a beauti-
full little farm in a most desirable
place where at that time they were
the only Colored family in the COM
munity. Through illness and trials
they worked until it was paid for.
They have been an inspiration to
others, and there are now seven
Negro families in the neighbor-
hood who have either purchased or
built a. bungalow.
The Curtis have a daughter who
On June IA received a diploma from
grade school in the White Bear
Auditorium. She is thirteen and
he only Colored girl in the school.
Lois M. Curtis, the End, does well
as has no other little girl in her
neighborhood for her Race. She
helps her father and mother on
the farm and cooks, keeps the
house, plays the piano, attends
Sunday School and Church at Cam
phor M. E. where the Curtis fam
lily are all members. She goes with
her parents on the vegetable wagon
to sell so she win be able to go
to high school next fall.
