It was evident to us years ago that Chicago would furnish an unparalleled opportunity for trained nurses, if our work there could once become sufficiently developed to have the necessary number of physicians and the facilities.
The following departments of work are now fully organized, and in successful operation in this city: a sanitarium, a hospital, the Workingmen’s Home, the Life Boat Mission, the Life Boat Rest for Girls, and a thoroughly equipped medical missionary dispensary and visiting nurses’ department, and successful hygienic dining rooms at the University of Chicago.
The missionary nurse who had more or less experience in a number of these departments, and in addition thorough class work, has certainly had opportunities for development that are almost unequaled.
Our present class consists of twenty-four members. They are an earnest and appreciative company of young men and women. They realize to a certain extent the important work that is before them, as well as the great opportunities that they will have in life after they completely surrender to the will of God, and allow him to make of them workmen that need not to be ashamed.
There will be excellent opportunities here for many more of this same class of people. Address Chicago Medical Missionary Training School, 28 Thirty-Third Place, Chicago.
