TUatRGULOSIS il
THE TRAINED
NURSE
Two Excellent Papers
Were Head Before Nurses
Convention Tuesday
Morning.
The Tuesday morning session ot
the third annual convention of the
Georgia State Asspclatlon of Gra
duate Nurses was featured by two
very wxceient addresses, delivered
by Dr. W. H. Doughty and Dr. W. R.
Houston.
Dr. Doughty discussed the merits
of a bill recently passed by the gen
eral assembly of Georgia, providing
that all nurses who devote three
years to preparatory training am
pass an examination before a state
board may affix to their names the
abbreviation "R. N.” which stands for
“Registered Nurse.”
He stressed the importance of edu
cating the public to the significance
of this movement. He said that k
had done more for uplifting the stand
ard of excellence and efficiency in the
profession than any other factor.
He recalled the important point
that the hill is not oppressive, that
it does not restrict the practice of “out
side" or Independent nurses, and that
it does not look to any organization
even remotely similar to th ? popular
Idea of a trades union, or protective
association. The object of the sys
tem, said Dr. Doughty, is to place a
high premium on efficiency, and this
Is being done.
Registered Nurses.
The advantages of the Registered
Nurse system are at once apparent.
While there are many well-trained
and efficient nurses outside the asso
ciation, said Dr. Doughty, there are
likewise others who are not efficient
or well-trained. While, on the con
trary, the qualifications of a Regis
tered Nurse are so numerous and her
preparation has been so thorough,
that her services may always be en
gaged with a greater degree of confi
dence and certainty.
Dr. Doughty also touched, in a gen
eral way, on what a nurse should aim
at in her training First sud hr,
she have a broad knowledge of the
theory of medicine, next she should
be thoroughly versed in its practical
application, and most important of all
she should be well trained.
The address was one of the most
instructive and in;*resting of the con
vention, and left a profound impres
sion .
Dr. Houston spoke on Tuberculo
sis. He described the terrors of the
dreadful malady. One person out of
every seven dies of tuberculosis, he
said. He compared tuberculosis to
leprosy, declaring that the two dis
eases are not altogether unlike. He
made the statement that tuberculosis
Is as easily preventable as leprosy,
and attributed the spread of tubercu
losis, in contrast to the stamping out
of leprosy, to the Invisibility of the
one, as opposed to the plain and un
mistakable manifestation of the other.
Augusta’s Visiting Nurse.
He said that "among all the forces
that can be arrayed for the warfare
agaolnst this disease there is none
to which a more important place has
been assigned than that given to the
trained nurses of the country.” He
said thnt the city of Patterson, N. J„
wasted $1,400. realized from the sale
of Christmas stamps, in buying egg)
and milk for tuberculosis patients, in
stead of defraying the expenses of a
visiting nurse. He declared that the
keynote in the present campaign
against tuberculosis is not relief of
the sufferer's phvs'cal needs, but pre
vention of the spread of the disease
from the sick to the well. He quoted
the most eminent authorities on the
advisability of turning anti-tubercu
losis campaign funds into the hands
of visiting nurses for the purpose of
teaching the members of afflicted
houesholds the proper measures of
prophylactic and personal hygenie.
In tills connection, Dr. Houston paid
Miss Louise Ulggar. Augusta’s visit
ing nurse, a very high tribute.
Especial emphasis was laid on the
futility to control the ravages of tu
berculosis by legislation. While the
American people, said the speaker,
are not readily repressed by civic
laws, they are possessed of a high
sense of personal obligation, and are
responsive to a higher law than
speaks through to by the family with
which she comes in contact as a per
son especially well equipped to give
advice on all matters pertaining to
the preservation of personal health,
the effect of her influence toward a
general awakening to the spread of
tuberculosis, and her education in
methods of preventing its dissemina
tion, constitute the mosi important
factor of the anti-tuberculosis move
ment.
RETORT COURTEOUS.
Two London cabbies were glaring at
each other.
"Aw, wot's the matter with you?"
demanded one.
"Nothink's the matter with me. you
bloomin' idiot!”
"You gave me a narstv look," per
sisted the first.
Me! Why. you certainly 'ave a
narsty look; but I didn't give it to
you. so elp me!"—Tit-Bits.
