'Sister Hall has served under me since June 1915. Her professional knowledge is quite up to the standard of her rank - she is a very capable nurse. Her ward management is not quite so proved. She is interested in and takes pains with the training of her orderlies. She has a particularly nice disposition, is very mobile and reliable and most attentive and kind to her patients. She is very hard working and her influence generally is decidedly good. She has not acted in a rank higher than that she present holds. I consider her fitted for promotion in due course.'

THREE YEARS AS NURSE.
SISTER HALL'S EXPERIENCES.
Sister May Hall, daughter of Mrs. Hall, of "Wyuna," Forest-street, Bendigo returned home last Saturday week, after being away for three years on active service. It was in May, 1915, that Sister Hall left Australia. She first proceeded to London, whence she was transferred to Lemnos, where for six months she laboured under the most trying conditions. For eight weeks the patients and attendants alike were nearly starved, and endured great privations, which were only relieved by the practical kindness of the naval men from warships in the bay. From Lemnos Sister Hall went to an Australian hospital in Egypt, near Cairo. Her term of eight months here extended through the trying summer, when Australian sick were pouring in at a rate which taxed the capacity of the nursing staffs to the very limit. The next move was a more congenial one, for it was to Brighton, in England, the famous watering place south of London. Here for six months, Sister Hall was attached to the staff of an Australian hospital, and recuperated after her arduous work in strange lands. Then she was moved off to the South of the Somme, where she was attached to an Australian hospital, which had been constructed by German prisoners.
Before returning home Sister Hall was at the Boulogne No 2 General Hospital for five months, and here she had the experience of being under shell fire from the enemy's guns. The Germans bombed Boulogne, but, fortunately, the hospitals were not hit.
Speaking of the work of the Red Cross and the Y.M.C.A., Sister Hall was loud in her praise of both these splendid institutions. "The Red Cross," she said, "really saved the lives of everyone at Lemnos, where food was practically unobtainable for some time owing to transport difficulties. I cannot speak too highly of the Red Cross work. Each Australian unit in France has its own representative at the Red Cross headquarters. You notify him of your requirements, and you invariably get more than you ask for. The only unfortunate fact is that some of our men who happen to be patients in British hospitals miss these comforts, while the Britishers in our hospitals get them. The Y.M.C.A. also does magnificent work in caring for the men going into, and coming out, of the firing line. At the bases, which are usually about 35 miles behind the firing line, the Y.M.C.A. provides concerts for the men nightly, and does everything possible to entertain and cheer them."
Sister Hall has been granted indefinite leave by the authorities, and is staying with her mother, who is in indifferent health.

She has had many and varied experiences, having been on duty in Lemnos, Egypt, Brighton (England), and the Somme Valley Base Hospitals.

AN AUSTRALIAN NURSE.
Nurse Perry Handley, sister of Mrs. (Dr.) Connor, for some time on the staff of the Lismore Hospital, and afterwards superintendent of one of the largest American hospitals, is in France in charge of the surgical staff of the hospital of a wealthy American lady. In the last letter received, which was written in Paris, she tells how they were in hospital working very hard preparing surglcal dressings for the front for a month's work. They did not know what moment they would start or what their destination would be. Every evening the nurses attended French classes and only French was spoken everywhere. They were getting quite fluent. Among other news she said that in one ward of the hospital there were 500 British wounded, and on the whole they were very cheerful. There was, she said, no shortage of food in Paris, and the nurses' quarters were particularly comfortable, and the nearest to home cooking of food it could possibly be.

IN FRANCE.
AUSTRALIAN NURSE'S EXPERIENCE.
In a letter to her brother, Dr. F. G. Connor, of Chatswood, Nurse Perry Handley(now superintendent of the American Hospital at Juilly, France, but formerly of Little Bay Hospital) says:-From Monday morning to Wednesday morning we were at the operating table without one minute's rest; and with scarcely time even for a cup of tea. The patients were lying on stretchers in the court-yards, receiving-rooms, corridors, and on the floor by the operating room. They were all worn out, and many slept for two days without rousing up, except when the nurses disturbed them for food. At the end of the first week all the operating staff-three nurses and one orderly-collapsed, and I was left alone. I managed to struggle along for two days longer, and keep ahead of the enormous demands, and then help came from Paris. As soon as the extra nurses arrived my strength gave way, and I was in bed two days - just physical fatigue. ' But the rush was over. I feel it is a privilege to be able to do one's small part.

AUSTRALIAN
NURSE.
Brilliant Career Abroad.
MiSS J. PERRY HANDLEY, news of whose sudden death In Paris on April 16 recently reached Sydney, had a remarkable career.
Trained at the Lismore General Hospital and the Coast Hospital, Sydney, Miss Handley went for special studies to San Francisco and to the famous Mayo Clinic at Cleveland. At the outbreak of war she was at New York Women's Hospital, and, volunteering at once for active service, she was sent to France with Mrs. Hurry Whitney's American Hospital. At the end of the War in France, Miss Handley was sent to Poland In charge of a huge hospital there, which, on the approach of Russian revolutionaries, she had to evacuate completely in two hours. She then went to Serbia on reconstruction work, at which she remained for some years,
Decorated by Governments.
AFTER a visit to her relatives In Australia, Miss Handley was asked to go to the American Hospital in Paris, of which she was made superintendent, and where she was working at the time of her death. The Governments of Great Britain, France, Poland, and Serbia all awarded Miss Handley decorations for her service, the French decoration being "With Palms."
Her villa at Neuilly, near Paris, was a centre for Australians In Paris, especially for Australian nurses and students from the American Hospital. Her warm-hearted Australian hospitality there is remembered by many.
Miss Handley became an authority on the lesser known French provincial towns, and was a keen collector of antique French furniture.

SISTER HARDWICK laid the foundations for a good beginning, any how,for she ranks with the "privileged" few who dressed the wounded under fire. It's a long call from 1918 and the little village of Ham, in front of St. Quentin, near Pozieres, to duty in the Randwick Hospital, ministering to the broken bodies of men for whom the war still lives in all its horrors and realities. Sister Hardwick is, perhaps, one of the few women of those far-off days left
who saw men in battle, since along with two other nurses of the 3rd Australian General Hospital, Sister Faulkiner, present whereabouts unknown, and Sister Wallace, who subsequently married and settled down in New Zealand she was attached to the 161st British Hospital behind the lines near Ham on the morning of the great German push on March 21, 1918. From the station these women watched the thousands of Gough's ill-fated Fifth Army melt before the overwhelming fire of the German divisions that swept on their way to Paris, to meet with the stubborn resistance of the men of the A.I.F. before Villers Bretonneux.
Like many men before them had done, these women sheltered behind news-papers and empty biscuit boxes and called it the worst war they'd ever been in, and, like the Diggers they had attended, they learned that shells didn't fall in the same place twice. Indeed, Sister Hardwick walked to the station drinking-fountain, had a drink, and returned to her companions in time to see the fountain blown to pieces by a 5.9.
And the wounded Her most vivid memory is that of having to attend to them in potato patches just outside Amiens, for there was no accommodation for anyone, and it looked as if the war might be all over in a night.
Best and Bravest
CRITICISE the Fifth Army retreat, and Sister Hardwick will take up the argument and vote the unfortunate fellows as the bravest and best imaginable, for she was able to judge of the horrors of war with a woman's mind and with a woman's understanding. Along with Sister Hardwick, there are others of the A.I.F. who knew Egypt and the Suez Canal, and Salonika, and Mudros off the shores of the Dardanelles.

Indeed, Sister Hardwick walked to the station drinking-fountain, had a drink, and returned to her companions in time to see the fountain blown to pieces by a 5.9.
And the wounded Her most vivid memory is that of having to attend to them in potato patches just outside Amiens, for there was no accommodation for anyone, and it looked as if the war might be all over in a night.
Best and Bravest
CRITICISE the Fifth Army retreat, and Sister Hardwick will take up the argument and vote the unfortunate fellows as the bravest and best imaginable, for she was able to judge of the horrors of war with a woman's mind and with a woman's understanding. Along with Sister Hardwick, there are others of the A.I.F. who knew Egypt and the Suez Canal, and Salonika, and Mudros off the shores of the Dardanelles.

A NURSE'S STORY
AN AUSTRALIAN WOMAN'S EXPERIENCES IN THE WAR.
LIFE IN ENGLAND AND FRANCE.
Among the nurses recently returned to Australia is Miss Effie Hargreave, a Victorian, who has been attached to the Queen Alexandra Imperial Military Nursing Service Reserve. Miss Hargreave has seen much hard work in England and in France, and the following is her account of her experiences on duty as a nursing sister : --
'First, I went to St. Omer, In Northern France' stated Miss Hargreave. 'There I nursed Belgian refugees at a convent set in a delightful, old fashioned garden. St. Omer was general headquarters, so I had the privilege of seeing many distinguished persons at close quarters. The Prince of Wales, Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig, the late Lord Kitchener, Sir William Robertson, and many others came to this centre. Once I dropped my prayer book in church and one of these military leaders restored it to me.
'It was at St. Omer that I had my first experience of an air raid. I remember one sunny June morning watching an air fight against a Taube. As many as twenty shells were bursting simultaneously. Later the Taube was brought down at Cassels, which was within firing of the long distance guns from Ypres.
'Then I passed on to a hospital containing 1000 beds, Le Trepott, a quaint seaside village. The hospital was high up on the cliffs, overlooking the bay, which was always crowded with quaint looking fishing smacks showing small blue waves. The patients loved the warm sunshine and the picturesque surroundings after spending months in the trenches.
On an Ambulance Train
'Looking after the wounded on an ambulance train was my next experience of military duty. The train ran from Remy, near Popernge to Pata. At times we were so near the firing line that the vibration of the guns made the train windows rattle. On some occasions it cracked the glass. There was one trip when we all had headaches for days through gas fumes reaching us. There were no corridor carriages to the ambulance train, and while the train was travelling the only way to reach a patient in another compartment was to walk along the footboard. Often we walked from one end of the train to the other like this to give a patient nourishment. Some times the old peasant women working in the fields would throw up their hands and shout out 'Mot Dieu, mademouselle'. One day I was making my way along the footboard to reach a soldier that was in a very bad way, when a train loaded with had dashed past in the opposite direction. I saved my ???? which contained a bottle of strong coffee ????, some brandy and a little ???? ????, but I lost my cap and presented a very untidy appearance when I reached my patient. I had to make a toilet towel do duty for the regulation cap until I was able to reach my travelling kit.
Pathetic Incidents
'Often we used to load up in sleet and snow at 5 am and remain on duty many hours. The soldiers were wonderful. Their cheerfulness, pluck and endurance are things never to be forgotten. Some of them were so emaciated that they could make themselves comfortable by using one of the hat racks for a bed. One of the most pathetic cases I encountered was that of a young boy, who had been for weeks and weeks burying the dead and collecting the discs for identification purposes. His nerves had gone to pieces and what seemed to distress him most of all was the fact that so many of his dead comrades had gone into action without their identification discs, and he could not convince the officer in charge of the fact. There was a young American, twenty years of age, lying on one of the hat racks, who said to me 'Don't bother about me, the chap below is worse' A few minutes later he was dead. I can always see his wistful little face, when he first boarded the train and said ' Think there is any chance for me Sister?' These are only some of the incidents - incidents that I shall never be able to forget.
We ran into about twelve air raids while on the train. We carried many Indian troops, who were never any trouble as they had their own orderlies who did everything for them. On nearly every trip we brought back German prisoners. The French people were most kind to be on these train trips, providing us with flowers, fruit and bowls of black coffee.
Nerve-Racking Experiences
'From the ambulance unit I was drafted to a hospital ship in the French Channel, provided for the Somme push. Some days we did two trips in twenty four hours. To me it was the most terrifying experience of all my war service. Twice through the fog we ran into other ships. We crossed the Channel the night the German raiders were there. A submarine let us pass but sand a troopship that was folllowing close behind us. Once a Submarine (a mine layer) came up about forty yards away from our ship. I was sitting on the deck with some patients when it appeared. You can imagine how we felt when suddenly a horrid square jawed unshaven face appeared in the cotting tower. He stared at us for a minute and then submerged.
No Luxuries for Germans
'On one of these Channel trips I had for a patient a man from North Country regiment who had been most cruelly treated when a prisoner of Germany. He wept as he told of his treatment at the hands of the enemy. That determined me that I would do my duty toward German prisoners, but would not give them any luxuries. The first German I met latter coming to the decision was an officer who was furious with be because I refused to give him chocolate and boxed sweets from the collection I was distributing. I told him that he had been given three good meals and that he was not entitled to luxuries after the way his comrades had treated our prisoners. I never extended any little extra kindness to the German prisoners after the British soldier's story of German calousness.

THREE LAST-WAR SISTERS still on military duty, watching old AIF. men making basket ware. L. to R.: Matron J. M. Hart, Sub matron E. J. Garvin. and Sister E. M. Behrens.
Sisters of last war still nursing soldiers
No other women in Australia could be more envious of the nurses who are going overseas with the Australian forces than thirty-two busy, cheerful women at Randwick Military Hospital.
All of them, including the matron and sub-matron, were war nurses during the last war, and many of them have been tending the illnesses and injuries of soldiers ever since.
Many of them served in advanced hospitals near the battlefront and know at first hand the horrors and heart-breaks of war, but all of them say, "We'd love to be going again."
All of them are extremely reticent about their experiences. "It was all part of our job," they say,"we don't want to talk about it."
Matron J. M. Hart, who was appointed matron at Randwick fouryears ago, is a Queenslander. She went on war service in 1914 straight from Brisbane General Hospital,where she did her training, and served in Egypt, France, Italy and England.
At the end of the war she was awarded the Royal Red Cross.
She was in charge of the Repatriation Hospital in Brisbane until she came to Sydney.
As well as members of the old A.I.F., these nurses are also looking after members of the new AIF., the Air Force, and the Navy.
"They're much the same as theirfathers and uncles," said MatronHart. "They're all very good kids,and on the whole are very wellbehaved patients.
"This is a very happy place. So many of ourselves and our patients have been here for a long time, andwe are like a friendly family. Our old patients are so cheerful that they are a lesson to us in patience and good spirits."

A WAR NURSE.
There arrived in Ballarat on Tuesday night on the train from Bendigo one of the pluckiest little women whoever fell a victim to the war. This is Nurse Hartridge, who is not a stranger to Ballarat. She is repeating previous visits to the Novar Hospital as a guest of the Red Cross Society and will stay there for some time. Nurse Hartridge was wounded in France in 1917 when the hospital in which she was working was shelled and since then she has been a cot case and will remain so until the end. But she is wonderfully brave and cheerful and visits the various Red Cross hospitals and stays in one day after another and is always welcome. On Tuesday night she was met by Miss Bessie McDonald and a kindly local firm having lent a motor van, she was lifted, bed and all, out of the railway car in which she had made the long journey and, with the nurses in charge, was taken to Novar where, despite the fact that the hospital is carrying a full quota of patients, room was found for her. The railwaymen lent ready and sympathetic aid in conveying her from the train to the van and Nurse Hartridge, despite her permanent injury, bore the handling with her usual cheer and courage. She is looking forward to an enjoyable holiday in Ballarat where she is well known, especially to Diggers.

Confined to her bed since the war, in which she was injured when a
Red Cross hospital was bombed, Sister Hartridge, of Ballarat, Victoria, is again able to walk. Her recovery is regarded as a miracle, for she was once pronounced a hopeless case. She is shown outside Novar Red Cross Hospital, Ballarat.

Long Service
As Nurse Sister Mary Hayes, who has been in charge of the Subiaco Infant Health Centre since 1926, is to retire after nearly 40 years' experience as a nurse. She said yesterday that she was sorry to give it up. Although she had not intended to take up nursing as a career, she said that she was glad that she had made the choice. "It is a job that makes you feel worth while, knowing that you have helped save lives"she said. Sister Hayes said that when she first began infant health work,she spent most of her time visiting mothers and educating them to bring their babies to the centre and teaching them the proper methods of feeding. The modern mother had learnt that natural feeding was the best method. "In the early days of the centres, many mothers fed their babies on condensed milk, biscuits, and in one case a three week-old baby was given jam," she said. "Mothers have improved a great deal since then and husbands have become more cooperative and helpful with babies also. "Sister Hayes trained at the Fremantle Hospital and then joined the staff of the Children's Hospital. In 1914 she served in the war for 4 1/2 years and then took up a position at a base hospital. In 1925 she went to Sydney to do baby welfare training. She served at the King Edward Maternity Hospital before her appointment to the Subiaco centre.
PRESENTATION. Mrs. L. G. Bartlett, of Bayswater, who has had five children under the care of Sister Hayes, said yesterday that she was organising a presentation from appreciative mothers to Sister Hayes. She asked that all donations be sent to her care of Mr. A. C. Higgs, of the Subiaco Municipal Council.
