SUCCESS DEPENDS ON STAFF COLDWATER METHODIST CHURCH DESTRDYED BY FIRE Steps to Success gara to we value of the service rendered , to its character and its scope. The `work done by the Victorian Order in pioneer dis- tricts and among new citizens from foreign countries is one in which the Government is directly interested. Much is being said of the importance of caring for the newcomer and the pioneer as a means of improving his citizenship and making him contented and useful. The Victorian Order of Nurses is now doing just that thing and has car- ried its service into territories where such service is not obtainable through any other agency. The work which is being done is a national one both in theory and in practice and is, from every point of view, deserving of generous national support. Three hildren of John.'_-F.)-ricksoe burned to death when re destroyed their home in Melfoyt, Sask. _ an uuuu. 1 Nursing is the chief function of the 01'- der and much of this service is free; of a . total of nearly six hundred thousand visits last year more than 150.000 were made without charge. Those who are able to , pay do so according to their means. `the , amount varying from ten cents to a dollar, . but there is, and necessarily must be, a : margin to be covered 'by public support, and ` I there are very strong grounds for asking that such support be augmented more gen- erously than is now done from the funds of the State. The cash expenditure last year amounted to half a million dollars, or $100,000 less than the sum which would have been received upon the basis of one dollar charged for each of the visits made; nursing fees for the year actually amounted to not much over $200,000. If the 275 nurs- es in the 58 centres were paid at the rate of five dollars per day and an allowance were made for -the aid given by voluntary workers, it would be found that the Victor- ian Order is performing a service in Canada approaching three-quarters of a million dol- lars in value." Surely a work of that charac- ter and magnitude IS deserving of practical , recognition. The Order has an endowment i fund of $335,000, raised by the Duchess of l Connaught and Lady Minto, and the Do- ` minion and Ontario governments contribute grants of $5,000 and 32,500 respectively, the interest upon the endowment, plus these grants producing a fixed revenue of 825,- 000, as against a budget of $60,000,for the year endingwhfay, 1924. This-leaves a sum of 835,000 to be secured, and it is felt that the Dominion Government ought to take care of the decit, rather than plabe an additional burden upon - the various dis- tricts, `-already self-supporting, into which the work of the Order is divided. The claim, as we have said, is a strong one, having re- gard to the value of the service rendered, fn its nl-nu-nnhxu as.-sol "-- \---`- :o.. ..-....- CIRCULATION ..-. ...-..v uuu run: JDGIQ At.a meeting held on Tuesday afternoon it was decided to rebuild the church as soon as possible and in the meantime the Pres- byterian church, which has been offered them, will be used for their Sunday evening | service. , V. ......i wvvvala For twnt-y-fi\*e years the Victorian Order of Nurses has been combatting disease and conditions in which diseases thrive. It has been doing this in a practical way, by nurs- ing the sick in their homes, by preaching the gospel of cleanliness and by the con- duct of various branches of educational and -prevenitive service. Its activities have iincreased year` by year as new and greater demands have been made_upon its resources, so that, by reason `of its record `of sys- ltexnatic usefulness, it occupies today an unique position among social agencies, `nd its claim upon public support is tine whih cannot be challenged. The wor of t e order is thus described in a. quoted para- graph from the report of the Chief Super- intendent for 1922: Wherever there is life to be tendd, nursed or cared for, whether it be unborn or newborn, young or old, regardless of social status, race, color or creed. there will be found the blue-1i)nifrm- ed nurse, tending the sick, helping t e elp- less, bringing order out off diiordir, leaving behind her something o te eaven o lknowledge of right-"living, something of the `rad-iandce of high purpose to sweeten -the air aroun . `T____:__ 3* g 1. ,. . - .. - . _ I puuuuns.
