A bill has lately been introduced at Harrisburg for the ostensible purpose of protecting the public, and the alleged need of such 'pro tection' is urged as a reason for passing such a law. Such a meas ure will increase the importance of toe nurse in her own eyes and tend to raise prices. There are no reasons fcr a State law for the registration of nurses that would benefit anyone but the nurses. My own experience has been that nurses assume too much in some instances. It has been necessary for me to label medicines falsely to guard the patient against a nurse, who was determined to give a certain drug. I have been frequently told bow to do certain things by nurses, which I foolishly thought I knew how to do, having had some experience in that hue, but nurse was fresh from another place and was wise. I find in my practice that the artisan, even though skilled, has no right to get sick, as he cannot afford it, for should he get $5 per day there is but $1.75 left each day to buy food, fuel, light, pay other help (which he must have if he has a trained nurse), and what is left can be used for medicines and the physician. The Columbia County Medica Society passed resolutions Febru ary 12, 1907, and February 9th 1909 against the passage of any such law, We need more nurses sadly iu this section, bnt not die tators. I do not wish to be understood as against the trained nurse, but I am heartily against the autocrat nurse as we so frequently find her today. She has abused the physi cian. who was the means of her creation", and she is now about to assume authority over the house hold, and become supreme dictator. S. B. Arment, M. D. 26.
