No Peace Pipe Needed
When this young man enteretj
Cook County School of Nursing
in Chicago’s great Medical Cen-
ter, he was prepared to find more
girls than boys in his classes. His
first big surprise came when he
was welcomed by girls from all
parts of the world. *•
Ha agrees with these other
young people — from Ireland,
from Iran, from China and the
Philippines — that peace pacts of
the future should ba no problem
if the young paopla of all coun-
tries could have tha opportunity
to study and play together.
Daily sharing of work and rec-
reation, observing how students
from other countries approach
their work and play, Is a lesson
that brings harmony and under-
standing in the three years that
it takes to. achieve a diploma in
nursing.
With experience for three years
in Cook County Hospital too, the
student is able to study practi-
cally every type of patient that
comet to tne 3400 bed institution.
A new class enters the school
•verv Fall and is absorbed into
this fascinating atmosphere, each
member working to become a reg-
istered professional nurse, and
learning to become an open mind-
ed world citizen.
Money doesn’t talk today,
just goes without saying.
