    URINALYSIS. Four Lessons. {For Each School.) The instruction given during the past year has included class work, conducted by the officers of the two schools, besides instruction, practical demonstrations and lectures given by the following physicians: Dr. Robert J. Carlisle, Dr. William C. Lusk, Dr. George D. Hamlen, Dr. W. J. Pulley and Dr. Joseph Nutt. No better facilities for the training of nurses can be found than are offered by Bellevue Hospital. Being largely an emergency hospital, the service is most active. During the past year the number of patients cared for has been large, and an effort has been made to combine the teach¬ ing as far as possible, thus giving both schools the benefit of any special opportunities for experience and training. There have been many changes in the Home for Women Nurses, and most generous contributions have been received from various members of the Board of Managers. The building formerly occupied as a mission chapel was entirely remodelled and attractively fitted up for nurses. Last Spring the Training School again enlarged its quarters, taking in all of the adjoining building. A new laundry was equipped on the ground floor, and the upper floors used for additional rooms for nurses. Repairs have also been made in the Home for Men Nurses, and the first floor thoroughly painted and renovated. A splendid new lecture hall and gymnasium, with a demon¬ stration room adjoining is to be furnished through the kindness of the Board of Trustees, and will be used for the class work and lectures of both schools.
