At the graduation of fifty two young women from the New York school for Trained Nurses, the following version of the Hippocratic oath was administered by the chairman of the advisory board, Mrs. Cadwallader Jone3: "You do solemnly swear, each by whatever she holds most sacred, that you will be loyal to the physician under whom you serve, as a good soldier is ioyal to his officers; that you will be just and generous to all worthy members of your profession, aiding them when it will be in your power to do so; that you will live your lives and lead your profession in uprightness and honor; that into whatsoever house you shall enter it shall be for the good of the sick to the utmost of your power, and that you will hold yourselves aloof from all temptation; that J.

If you accept these obligations, let each one bow the head in sign of acquiescence. And now, if you shall be true to your word, may prosperity and good repute be ever yours, the opposite if you shall prove yourselves forsworn.

Last week the Review club was pleasantly entertained in Gilmore City.

Of immeasurable benefit to the poor classes in Philadelphia are the huge recreation piers on the river front.

Seventeen years ago the Rev.

F. L. Pease, a retired missionary of New York city, purchased a little farm in the suburbs of Ashvilie, North Carolina, and built a comfortable cottage in which he hoped to spend hiB remaining days with his wife in peace and happiness. The girls who came to do cooking and other household work in the cottage were very ignorart. None of them were accustomed to the conveniences of a modern kitchen, and few were able to read and write.

So Mrs. Pease organized a small class in which she taught reading and writing in addition to household arts, and soon applications for admission came from mountain girls outride her own neighborhood, which she could not well refuse. Five years later Mr. Pease donated his thirty-five acreB of land to the Presbyterian Woman's Missionary board for the erection of the Normal and Collegiate Institute for Young Women, a four-story structure which accommodates 225 girls. On the same site is the Home Industrial School for Girls, which is the direct outgrowth of the kitchen class established by Mrs.

Pease. The cottage has been enlarged until it accommodates 108 girls, with a list of applicants all the time who have to wait for vacancies on account of lack of room. Mr. Pease died several years ago. but Mrs.

Pease sttll lives in Ashvilie, and though eighty-four years of age, takes an active interest in the work of the schools. lTU II IV 9 ill Ik I I tii Wii? BEGINS OJV flONDAY, JULY ist.
