Quaint old-fashioned, full- skirted be-caped and veiled nurses from Switzerland and Germany; smart and extremely modest grey 'frocked nurses from France; rosy- cheeked and round faced nurses | with uniforms as blue as delft from Holland; fair-haired Norwegians, smiling little girls from Japan, sol- emn women from China. These with groups of sisters and distine- tive. orders from the small Euro- pean kingdoms mingle happily with the practical motherly nurses from Great Britain, and the busi- ness-like women who represent the profession on this continent, English is the language of the con- ference, but the programs are also printed in French and German.

In 1919 she set up a school of her own in Shanghai, and every year has to turn away hundreds of girls who want to study nursing, The government has not yet been sefzed with the importance of nursing and although the Chinese nursing as- osciation has 2,000 members, most are graduates of the 140 schools instituted by the Christian mis- sions.

"What happened to the otner three cars " asked Mr. Armour, "The men in them must have seen what happened, hut I heard them laugh and they passed on without slowing down "I went up to the driver of the truck and said: 'You have settled that poor fellow.' The driver, a foreigner, sid to me: 'What have 1 done?'

"I interfered and told the stran- ger that there had been trouble enough and that he had better get along. That was the last 1 saw of him." Watson died in St. Michael's hos- pital on July 2.
