Another factor which undoubt-

Mentally alert at 70, entered the
DeaconesS hospital here SO years
ago when she was but 10. That
was just two years after the IN
stitution was founded.
AS to the past, she says that
the alienation Of pain was the
greatest single change she wit
ressed. During the half-ccntury
she has been part Of medicine,
the profession has reVolutlonlzed
treatments which have prevent
ed untold suffering.
RECALLS THE '9OS
AS an example, she cited the
treatment of typhoid fever. In
the 90S, when the so-called
"sawbones" treated the alling,
patients were given little liquid
or food during their fever, and
in fact many persons were de-
hydrated many hours before any
type of operation.
This treatment, necessary I'M
der conditions Of that day, re-
suited in intense pain.
Today, she said, not only has
the pain virtually been ellmln-
ated-but the disease as well.
There are so few typhoid pa
tents today that l doubt if many
of the nurses in training ever
saw one" Sister Magdalena said.
Surgery and medicine, she
said, have marched across the
progressive years hand in hand
to relieve suffering and she
added:
OPERATING MIRACLES
MANY miracles have been
performed on the operating
table and in the sick rUoTfr- We
can explain these miracles Of
modern medicine but they are
no less miraculous because we un-
derstand them"
The veteran nurse was sister
superior Of the DCaConeSS hos
pital from 1896 TO 1887. Since
then she has been characterized
as "a nurse Of spirit"
She predicts that the future
will bring untold" further prog
rcss in the field Of medicine.
MANY Of the improvements,
she said, ARE at work on the
battlefields of the world right
now. And when this horrible
war is over, they'll be brought
home to relieve suffering here.
