NURSING, TEACHING, CARING Sisters Of Mercy Here For Nearly 'Them ladlei with sheets over their heads ain’t so bad," So spoke a visitor to one of the clinics at St, Joseph's Infirmary in Atlanta, For almost a hun dred years ‘Them ladies", or others like them, have devoted themselves to Christ and His Church In this diocese through prayer and the apostolate of nursing, teaching, and caring for the less fortunate. T^e citi zens of Atlanta have truly come to acclaim they really "ain't so bad," What inspired these Sisters to come to Atlanta to spend and be spent for others?
