FIRST ANNIVERSARY

Mr.. and Mrs. Norman w. Paris,
Jr., quietly observed their first we'd
ding anniversary at their home here
Thursday, June 18th. AS many will
recall, Mr.. Paris, who has lived in
Milford for a number of years, met
his wife through correspondence,
and their wedding a year ago took
place three days after their first
meeting. The bride was the former
Miss Edith Eblem, of Stearns, Ken
lucky, and the wedding was solemn
lied by Rev. L. E. Werner, former
pastor of Calvary Methodist Church.
The couple became acquainted
through the brides brother, who
during the war, worked with MIR.
Paris in war plant in Baltimore.
The first correspondence was a let
ter, which Mr.. Paris wrote to as
certain the brothers address.
The letters continued, and were
shortly followed by a proposal OF
marriage although the couple had
never seen each other. Neither Mr.
or Mrs. Paris, seem to regret the
step and seem to be as happy or
happier than many couples, who
carried on an extensive courtshir
before marrying.

Hospital News

ses is greater today than ever. To
keep up with medical science a
nurse must have. a good back
ground both in science and the
nursing arts. A nurse in order
TO be able to understand the work
taught in the courses in the school
of nursing must have studied Eng
lish, at least two courses, in sci
ence, mathematics, and the other
courses which will give good gen.
eral information. A nurse not well
grounded in high school work will
have considerable difficulty doing
the nursing school studies.
| TO become registered nurse
you must be able to pass the state
board examinations in your par
ticular state and must have grad
uated from an accredited school of
nursing. In accredited schools the
curriculum is set up by the ma
tiOnal organization called the Ma
tiOnal League of Nursing Educa-
ton. The content of each course
of study as we'll as the number of
days practice the student receives
in each service is determined by
this organization. This serves as
a protection to the graduate nurse
who finds some day that her resi-
dence has been changed to some
distant state and since the re-
quirements in all states are the
same it is very easy for her to
find employment no matter where
she may go.
The Milford Memorial Hospital
sends its students to the Delaware
State Hospital for training in the
care of mental and nervous patients
and to the Gallinger Hospital,
Washington, D. c., for training in
the care of children, contagious dis
eases and patients with tubercu-
losis. Although a small hospital
the Memorial Hospital is the only
hospital in the State of Delaware
whose nurses receive special train
ing in the care of tuberculosis pa
tients. This program so strength
ems the training of our nurses that
they can practice their profession
in practically every state in the
union after having passed the Del
aware State Board examinations
This should be of added interest
to any student who is contem-
plating studying nursing in this
community.
