CR 4â€"3298 NEW TORONTO 8â€"14 _ 1.99 199 .50 .99 .49 In almost every nursing school in this province, students are required to live in residence and are subject almost 24 hours a day to hospital discipline. A student on a date for instance, must check in by 10 or 11 o‘clock, depending on the school. She (or he) works in three shifts and only gets one in three or four weekâ€" ends off. | _ At the Osler School, named after |a famous Weston physician who | practised a century ago, things will |be much different when the doors open this September. It will be a day school, and after the student is through with classes, she will return ‘home for mom‘s cooking and her own bed. Provided she behaves properly and learns her lessons then, ‘the time after her working day is \her own. Principal, Miss Jacqueline Robarts, says the school‘s Board of Governors decided on the new day school conâ€" cept with the thought of attracting young men and women into nursing, who might be reluctant to choose it as a career had they been required to live in residence. From the point of view of the taxpayer there is another advantage. The cost of building a residence, with all the services such as dining rooms and recreation areas, is virtually eliminated. | _ Instead of the normal Grade 13 | diploma, young men and women who \have completed Grade 12 with at |least a 60 to 65 per cent average ‘in the general arts course in high kschool, will qualify for enrollment at Osler. The school is unique in a second respect. While its sponsor is Humber Memorial, students will also be using the facilities to two other hospitals â€" Northwestern General and Toronto Hospital for Tuberâ€" culosis. experience in three hospitals, and the one school will eliminate the necesâ€" sity of building duplicate facilities at theTorontoâ€"and ~Northwestern Hospitals. The advantage to the student is that she (or he) will gain a broad When the new school opens in September, the enrollment will be limited to 40, because the temporary quarters will be a large twoâ€"storey house loaned by Humber Memorial Hospital. The fact that a house, instead of a building designed for the purpose, will be used during the first year, doesn‘t worry the efficient, downâ€" toâ€"earth principal in the least. Miss Robarts looks on it as a "pioneering sense of adventure". The first graduates will be able to look back with pride and say they were the first to enrol, she says. The Osler School of Nursing will move into its â€" impressive | new quarters in September 1967, when enrollment will be stepped up to between 75 to 100 a year. The school offers yet another incentive to the aspiring nurse. Miss Robarts, a Bachelor of Science in Nursing graduate, said the Board of Governors decided on the Grade 12 rather than Grade 13 requirement, because there are many who have the ability but would prefer not to complete high school. In the third year, they will be paid $250 a month for the first six months ahd $300 for the last six. Holidays? Four weeks annually. Because there is no residence and students will either live at home or share an apartment, they will be paid $75 a month living out allowâ€" ance during the first two years in training and will get one meal a day while in attendance at the school. Hospitals are begging fon Regisâ€" tered, Nurses because there just aren‘t enough to go around. Who knows? Maybe the Osler Board of Governors has found the trail that will be followed by other new nursâ€" ing schools to bring the supply in line with the demand. One: of the oldest, and most effective traffic safety programs for youngsters is the school patrols program. The Ontario Safety League has been recommending this to school authorities for half a century. On May 4th, 1916, OSL minutes report: "It was decided to spend up to $200 on furthering acâ€" cident . prévention â€" among . school children by means of safety patrols in the schools." In February, 1918, the League‘s annual meeting was told: "The Safety Patrol idea has grown in the last year and we hope to see all the schools, in Toronto, Hamilton, London and Ottawa, as well/ as smailer places, adopt this M form of safety work in 1918." "I had not planned a sale at this time, but a rather amusing mistake of my own makes it necessary. "Recently 1 was invited by the Barbados Hotel Owners‘ Association to visit them and discuss their purchase of several hundred thousand dollars worth of Canadian furniture. In my excitement l flew off, forgetting to cancel some heavy back orders. "While l was away the trucking strike ended, and these orders immediately began rolling in. Upon my return, 1 could scarcely get in the door for furniture. "It‘s all beautiful stuff, but we just can‘t carry such a heavy inventory at this time of year. So we must cut the price of everything and get rid of it as fast as possible. "Our loss is your gain, so l hope you‘ll take advantage of the chance to beautify your home at the savings you see described below. My favourite manufacturers, Kroehler and Sklar, allow me to offer their products on sale only twice a year. So it will be some time before 1 can offer such an opportunity again."
