UATE NURSE WEDS

Graduating exercises for the nurses' class of the Mountain Sanitarium and Hospital School of Nurses at Fletcher were held at the institution over the last weekend. There were four young women in the class—Misses Novella Orenduff, Estelle Fox, Dorothy Hudson, and Esther Fox. The exercises opened with a nurses' banquet held in Rumbough Hall on Thursday evening last, attended by the faculty of the School of Nursing, the alumni, and members of the graduating class. Among the special features at the dinner were a vocal solo by Miss Mildred Hanson of Chattanooga, a member of the first graduating class of this School of Nursing, and a cello solo by Miss Marjory Mead, class of 1935, who came down from Washington, D. C., to attend the exercises.

On Friday evening, consecration services were held in the Sanitarium auditorium, presided over by Elder E. L. Sheldon, chaplain of the sanitarium. Saturday morning at 11 o'clock, Elder H. F. Taylor of Greenville, S. C., delivered the address.

On Saturday evening the class, assisted by a number of local musicians, gave in tableau and pantomime form an interesting survey of nursing history. Commencement exercises were held in the auditorium on Sunday evening, when Prof. H. J. Klooster, president of Southern Junior college, Collegedale, Tenn., delivered a masterful address to a well filled house. The four young women who were completing their three years' training were presented diplomas by Dr. John F. Brownberger, the medical director of the hospital. Miss Patterson, the superintendent of nurses, presented the school pins.

The graduating exercises of this class were doubly interesting inasmuch as the president of the class, Miss Novella Orenduff, was to be married in the same auditorium the night following graduation. The marriage ceremony took place on Monday evening, when Miss Orenduff became the bride of Mr. Albert Hall of Collegedale, Tenn. President H. J. Klooster officiated again. The bride was attended by Misses Grace Marquis, Dorothy Hudson and Cordie Lee Smith, all of Fletcher. The happy pair will make their home in Collegedale, Tenn., where Mr. Hall is employed by Southern Junior college.
