Emory, assistant director of the De- partment of Public Health Nufsing, Univétsity of Toronto, who dealt. [with the subject of the application of the principles of case work to public health nursing. Dr. Stanley Ryerson, secretary of lof Toronto, is no believer in using formidable medical terms when simp- let ones will do, and so his advice to the clinical lecturer was against giving "a colirse of didactic lectures on diseases 'of the digestive system under such headings as stomatitis, gastritis, * gastric ulcer, carcinoma, diseases of the liver, and describing the etiology, pathology, bacteriology, symptoms and signs, diagnosis, prog- nosis and treatment of each of them. Dr. Ryerson advised that patients should be used to dllustrate their main signs and symptoms, such as pain and redness of the mouth and tongue, etc. : Ward rounds, with one of the medi- cal staff or the nurse in charge of the ward, would supply a most valu- able method of instruction not used to anything like the extent to which it. might be, he believed, in the train- ing of nurses. : The Red Cross folk comprise an important section of the congress, headed by Mrs. Maynard Carter, chief . of the division of nursing, League of Red Cross Societies, who spent some days in Toronto recently She cites Italy as an examplé of a country where the Red Cross is hav- ing a very considerable influence upon the training of nurses, five training schools having been estab- lished since the war at Rome, Bari, Milan, Naples and Bologna, all of which bake their training on the standardsilaid down by the Italian Red Cross. This demands a two-year basic training, 'including the | preliminary period; followed by a year of speciali- zation" for public health nurses and a fourth vear, of specialization in hos- pital and training school administra- tion for nurses preparing for admin- istrative positions. The Japanese Red Cross has 25 training schools with some 10,000 nurses in its service. One hundred and sixty-four nurses from 40 countries have completed one or another of the international courses established by the League of Red Crass Societies at Bedford Col- lege, London, in conjunction with the College: of Nursing. 18 Simcoe Street, Bouth.

Berlin, a recommendation to the National Red Cross Sogitties- yas adopted to pro- vide for the. training .of nurses, to test their capacity by strict examina- tions and to train them in time of peace by nufsing ambfig the poor. Dr. G, B. Roatta, difector of dis- pensarics, Florence, Italy, who not ong ago addressed the Academy of Medicine in Toronto, said: "One could almost say that public health, with medicine as starting point, tends towards, or is pushed to- wards; sociology. * ~ "In ancient times the social' ten- dency 'prevailed," ~ Dr. Roatta' con- tinued, calling: to mind the hygienic laws of the early peoples, which often assumed a religious character, Those precepts, which were more purely medical, were strictly bound up with a social and 'political system, aiming towards the purity and robustness of the people and restraining the de- cadence of social customs. The laws of Moses are typical from this point of view, and these remain even to our days, passing through the Chris. tian era. a Increasing use of job analysis as the basis for curricula, was a point stressed by Prof. W. W. Charters, LL.D, PhM. Ph.D, University of Chicago. Most interesting © have been the comparative studies of private duty nursing made from the angles of di- verse countrics. Matron S, Gordon, the Victoria Nurses' Institute, Cape "Town, South Africa, for instance, made the inter- esting statement that private nursing in South Africa differed from that elsewhere, inasmuch as many of the patients were of a; different class In the older countries the working class patients either went to hospital e for the wounded, Red ER ng or managed with visits from a district nurse. In Africa money is more plentiful and, consequently, the private nufSe i8 in greater de- mand, especially amongst the Jewish families, : % . Private Nursing "The, homes," she added, "are not always of the cleanest or most com- fortable, and it, is tryipg and diffi- cult for a Christian to remember all the restrictions placed upon some ar- ticle in: daily use." = . : . Private 'duty mirses working in any of thé large centres,' Durban,' Johan- nesburg, * Pretoria, Bldemfontein or Cape' Town, 'are liable to be sent into the depths 'of 'the 'country at any time, * sometimes making a journcy of 400 miles into ohe' of the native territories, "the "Transkei, 'Namaqua- land, Zululand or Basutoland. Chinese " practitioners' of "western medicifye" are found in the large citics and many fountry towns of' China, says Miss Agnes B. Chan, superin- tendent of nursés, Wesleyan Hospi- tal, Fatshan Tung, China. She is a graduate of the Women's College Hospital, Toronto. But still the majority of the people depend on the old style Chinese doc-' tor, who is described by Miss Chan as belonging to the pro-renaissance age of Europe. He is a keen ob- server of symptoms, but cannot cor- relate them with anatomical and pathological knowledge. He still speaks in terms of the various "humor" which were fashion- able in the west three centuries ago --the "bile" and "phlegm," "heat" and "cold," "wind and' water." "I do not believe private duty nurs- ing ought to be a life's work," said Miss E., C. Kaltoft, of the Danish delegation, "When a nurse is ne longer quite young it is not always so easy to get the right cases for her, although many people prefer a middle-aged nurse to a younger on account of her experience But in general, I feel people prefer young nurses. The scale of the New Zealand J sociation. Trained Nurses' Association ranges from four pounds four shillings a 'week to five pounds five shillings, the last figure for mental and alcoholic cases, (Miss Jessie Bicknell, director |. of nursing division, Department of Health, New Zealand.) ; 0.) a Private duty nursing in the United States is now at a crossroad, says Miss 'Janet Géister, headquarters di- rector of the American Nurses' As- She believes that the next two decades will sce radical changes in this field--changes that will work to the profit of patient, community and nurse. It is now 56 years since the first nurse graduated in the United States, WILLIAM SPANKIE Reeve of Wolfe Island, Ont., who has been selected Conservative candidate in the federal by-eleec- tion in Frontenac-Addington | i PROGLENS OF NEWCOMERS A Family Of Six Finds Friends In Strange Land Toronto, July 12.--Arriving In Toronto a few days ago, a famuy of newcomers from the Old Coun- try, strange and a little bewilder- ed as to the move, they should make in settling in Canada, ap- pealéed to the Welcome and Wel- fare Department of the Council for Social Service of the Church of England, with offices at 604 Jarvis street. Personal interest' was dis- played in the welfare of the man of the family, who iz a carpenter by trade, and who had brought his tools with him, and of the wife and four children, the youngest an 8- months-old baby. : Hazy plans of journeying to an Ontario town some distance from Toronto were entertained by the newcomers, who brought with them the address of an Old Coun- try friend, whom they thought would welcome them. Through the effort of the Anglican workers, who immediately got in centact with the Anglican clergyman in the I.e. Khona ay town in which they hoped to make their home, it was discovered that the Old Country friend no longer resided in the community. The Welfare and Welcome De- partment staff made a financial loan; secured the lease of a small house, procured simple, but neces- gary furniture. that could be pur- chased on the instalment. plan, and settled the little family happily. Already the man of the family, who is a war veteran with a pension, has been 'assured of jobs that will ma provision for the house- hold, #nd in the hearts of these newcomers there glows the spirit of happiness lighted by the kind- liness extended to them in their hour of perplexity. Daily, interesting cases of fami- lies needing assistance in settling in Canada come to the attention of the Welcome and Welfare Depart- ment of the Council for Social Ser- vice, with the Port Chaplains, the clergy in both the Old Country and j in Canada proving connecting links. Arrangements have been made for a number of boys to come to Canada under the auspices ut the Council for Social Service of the Church of England, all of whom will be received at Western hostels. A large party of boys, which sailed from Liverpool on May 18, is expected in Canada at the end of the month, while other | parties are sailing in June, GROWING USE OF WATER WER The steady growth in the use of water power in Canada is shown by the facts that the average annual rate of increase in development since 1925 has been 10.7 per cent and that the total development now amounts to 554 installed tur- bine horse-power per 1,000 of pop- ulation.
