Bible and Medical Missionary School

By William Covert

The managers of the Hinsdale Sanitarium, near Chicago, have lately remodeled the old building at 28 Thirty-third Place, now 526 East Thirty-third Place. It has been repainted, repapered, and otherwise improved; in fact, it has the appearance of a new building.

The intention is to establish, for women workers, a training-school that shall furnish instruction in Bible and the simple principles of nursing. Room and board will be furnished at from three to four dollars a week; and the workers will support themselves by selling our magazines. The Northern Illinois Conference is planning to put an experienced lady Bible worker in the institution to give Bible and evangelistic instruction to all who come for training, and it is hoped that in this way a large number in Chicago will be reached by the third angel's message.

A nurses' course of six months, with Bible five days in the week, will be given to those who take the training; other lessons necessary to carry out the plan under advisement will also be given. An adequate number of experienced helpers will be secured for the opening of this work, which will begin about the middle of July. WM. COVERT.
