The tenth year of the St. Joseph's in
firmary training school for nurses was
brought to a fitting close on Tuesday
night May 23 in the Knights of Co
lumbus hall where a small invitation
dance was given to the graduates and
their friends ' the staff physicians and
their wives- and a few outside guests.
The gr.iduatins- class has the distinrtinn
of not only being one of the best classes
that has ever graduated from the in-
stitution -but also that it is the first
class to graduate under the three-year
course. ' .
The St. Joseph's' training school Is at
present the oldest school of its kind in
the city. a was founded in 1D05 by the
Sisters Of-Charltv of the Incarnate WnrH
and until 1913 it maintained a two-year
rso. At mis time mere was agitation
for the addition of another year to the"
course for nurses among the best schools
in the country. The Sisters in their "en-
deavor to maintain a school of the Very
highest standard immediately added an-
other year -o the course making it three
years of which this is the first class to
graduate. A fact which does great credit
to the school is that no graduate has ever
failed in the State board examination for
registration. ' .
The curriculum is divided Into three
sessions running from September to May
of each year. In the first year the stu-
dents are taught the elementary
branches anatomy materia medica hy-
giene physiology and practical nursing
In the second or intermediate year ' the
studies of a more advanced nature in-
clude bacteriology medical nursing ob-
stetrics gynecology and dietetics. ' In the
last year they are given surgery oper-
ating room technic pediatrics diseases
of the eye ear nose and throat nervous
ana mental diseases and massage.
The teaching staff is chosen from
among Houston a leading physicians

in the halls of congress will take the
minority side and plead Its cause.
Governor Ferguson in a most impas-
sioned speech defended the majority re-
port in committee. He taunted those who
would evade the issue with cowardice
and declared It was the duty of all dem-
ocrats to speak out and place themselves
on record in no uncertain way on these
two issues which are today uppermost in
the minds of the American people.
SEN. BAILEY'S RESOLUTIONS r
ARE TO BE PRESENTED AGAIN

for Committee.

SAN ANTONIO Texas May 24. Judge
W. C. Wear failed to get a favorable rec-
ommendation from the committee on per-
manent organization although hla friends
say that he will wield tha gavel to the
finish. They expect to put him over to-
day. This is counting chickens before
they are hatched but it is safe some
times.
The vote should have been 14 to IS for

Waples when the time came nominated
Jess Baker for the place. Other delegates
present supposed that Chairman Waples
knew his business and Jiss landed.
After the organization of the new com-
mittee the gentleman named by the State
chairman lined up with the opposition
rhis is the storp and It Is a ti-ue story.
If a reliable thick and thin Ferguson-
Poindexter democrat had been named
Wear would have been the choice of a
majority of the committee. It is never
safe to go to sleep at the switch.
