TEEN VOLUNTEER
The Children Wait for Mary

Late afternoon is a special time
for patients in the children's ward
of Prince Georges General Hospital.
About 4 o'clock. a quiet. blond girl
arrives, and that means story time
and someone to talk to.
For Mary Elizabeth Bell, her daily
visits to help out at the hospital
mean q chance to get a good look
at her chosen profession of nursing
and an opportunity to be with chill
dren.
For the nurses in the ward,
Marys arrival means an extra hand
and the knowledge that their
charges are being treated to some
thing extra in the hospital routine.
Mary, a 14-year-old freshman at
the Academy of Notre Dame. has
been doing volunteer work at the
hospital for the past several weeks.
She visits the children, reads to
them and helps feed them supper
from the time she gets out of school
until about GAS. when she goes
home.
This summer. she hopes she can
work in the ward fulltime.
The idea for the volunteer work
came from one of the nuns at Notre
Dame, who suggested girls in the
schools sodality adopt projects at
orphanages, perhaps even taking
one of the children home for
week end.
IT couldn't do that" Mary ex-
plains, because my mother has five
children. / like to work in hospitals
and love to work with children. so
asked if 1 could work with the chill
dren here"
Mary's offer was snapped up by
Mrs. Dorothy McArdle. director of
nurses at Prince Georges Hospital,
who is delighted to have the help.
I'D be interested in getting a
teen-age group to do volunteer
work at the hospital. but I can't
really expand the program until
I can find an adult who would

Competition Issue

Some students will thrive on the
opportunity for increased COMPETE
ton. Some will find that the OPP
portunity to pursue a specialized
course of study has marked ad-
vantages. Some will find mere
membership in the huge student
body adequate reward.
Some with we'll established study
habits will find the impersonal,
ordered routine of the university to
their liking. Students training for
a profession will usually enter
graduate schools easier than one
from the outside.
But others will find the very size
of the institution terrifying-its
impersonal atmosphere unpleasant.
its bulky rules and regulations dis

consider the small college.

The children's ward is an ideal
spot for Mary, who has had quite

dren for her young years.

Small colleges emphasize activ-
tiles outside the classroom as
vital part of college education. The
social and personal aspects of the
individual are as important as his
intellectual accomplishments to his
fellows. This feeling of community
recognition is one of the points
stressed by small colleges.
A surprising feature of many
small colleges is the wide geograph-
ical distribution of it's students.
They come from everywhere. bring
ing with them different customs
and cultures. Such contacts are
certain to broaden the students
