DEE MEMORIAL HOSP ITAL There is a bronze tablet in the ntrance hall of the Thomas D. Dee Memorial Hospital w hi c h re<:ords the beginning of the intitution in these words: "Founded in 1910 in loving .e mory of Thomas Duncombe Dee by his wife and children ANNIE T. DEE MAUDE DEE PORTER ELIZABETH DEE SHAW MARGARET DEE HIGGINBOTHAM EDITH DEE GREEN FLORENCE DEE BARKER ROSABELLE DEE BARKER LAWRENCE T. DEE" Thomas D. Dee departed this fe July 9th, 1905, in the 61st year f his life, at the height of his 1sines activities and in the very ime of his usefulness as a citizen. To carry out the desires of the mily to erect a memorial to the eroted husband and fa her, the '"homas D. Dee Memorial Hospital t:iSOciation was formed in Febary 1910. To this association le mother and children, organized · the Thomas D. Dee Company, nveyed the three acre tract on ecorner of Harrison A venue and .lth streets, a barren tract, which ey had acquired, and they notied the association that funds ARCH, lU:J:.! would be forthcoming for the erection of a memorial hospital on that site. Aside from the members of the Dee family, the person most enthusiastically favoring the projec'; was Dr. R. S. Joyce, physician and close friend of the Thomas D. Dee family. Dr. Joyce helped plan and carry to completion .a project which entailed a multitude of ttchnical details, in a field entirely outside the knowledge or experience of the would-be founders of the hospital. Architect L. S. Hodgscn prepared the plans, and C. J . Humphries was awarded the contract and er.ected the building. On July 10th, 1910 ground was broken for construction, and in less than six months the hospital was ready for occupancy. On December 29th, 1910, the memorial was dedicated and formally presented to the public. A dedicatory program was held in the large ward on the 4th floor. Our mother was very proud and happy in making the presentation ou behalf of the family. Mayor William Glassman for Ogden City and Commissioner Oscar B. Madson for Weber County, spoke in accepting the public gift. A. R. Haywood for the Weber Club, and Dr. Ezra C. Rich for the Medical Society gave addresses. Judge Henry H. Rollapp and Dr. A. S. Condon spoke of their association with Thomas D. Dee. Bishop James Taylor offered the dedicatory prayer and Rev. John Edward Carver pronounced the benediction. The original board of trustees consisted of: MRS. THOMAS D. DEE President FATHER P. M. CUSHANHAN and JOHN S. LEWIS Vice Presidents JOHN WATSON Treasurer MRS. R. B. PORTER Secretary H. H. ROLAPP, F. J. KIESEL, R. B. PORTER, F. E. LEWIS, WM. GLASSMAN, DR. R. S. JOYCE and DR. E. M. CONROY Many prominent citizens and numerous charitable and medical organizations made contributions to the furnishing fund, totaling about $10,000. Aside from these contributions the entire cost of the site, building, equipment and also landscaping of the grounds was borne by the Thomas D. Dee Family. The old railroad hospital was closed when the new hospital took over a few patients registered there. The new Dee hospital had a capacity of 75 patients. The buildPage 5 ing was 150x40 feet, with an office extens:on on the west of about 40x50 feet . A newspaper account cf the opening of the hospital was enthusiastic in stating that there '"as none this side of New York" more complete, more modern, or better equipped." Dr. Ezra C. Rich sa:d in his talk that it was "one of the most modern hospitals ever built." Contrasting the type of construction in use and the equipment rated as standard in 1910 with the present day vogue graphically illustrates the vast imprcvements hospitals have undergone during the p::i.st quarter of a century. The Thomas D. Dee Company continued to take entire administrative and financial responsibility for the hospital for some time. After a few years, however, the work expanded and demands became so great that the burden was heavier than the members of the Dee family felt they should carry. Thereupon, we did what many have done before, and others have done since: We took our problem to David 0. McKay (.at that time (Continued on page 19.) I WOOD MOTOR CO., Inc.

In March, 1950, the National Accrediting )ervice agreed to accept respon·ibility for the second study, proided that the necessary fund s to (3rry out the stud y could be :aised. It was decided, however, hat in lieu of a second classifica•mn a program of temporary acreditation would be carried for·ard. Atotal of $201,250 has now been ,ecured to finance the program, •hich includes $65,000 from the Rockefeller Foundation, to be ex:Ended during the first year, and 75,000 from the Commonwealth Fund and $61,250 from the Naional Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, to be expended over a ·hree-year period. Criteria for temporary accredi1ation were formulated by a ,pecial committee in December, 1950, and distributed in May, 1951, to all schoofs of nursing oftering programs not now on the ccredited list. These criteria • >hould be used as guides in evaluating their own programs, but !they should not be regarded as rigid, minimum standards. Programs approved for temporary ac,reditation will be evaluated in re~tion to their over-all strengths nd weaknesses, and undue emphasis will not be placed on any ne point. Temporary accreditation questionnaires were mailed in June, 1951, to all schools that offer programs not now on the accredited ~ational list. Information on these questionnaires were tabulated during the fall of 1951. A one-day visit by a representative of the National Nursing Accrediting Service was made during the fall of 1951, to all schools of nursing that returned the questionnaire. The purpose of the visit was to establish satisfactory relations between the school and the Accrediting Service · to obtain additional information, comments, and suggestions from persons associated with each school; and to explain the entire program more fully. Information about each school will also be submitted by state boards of nurse examiners. All information will then be considered by the boards of review of the National Nursing Accrediting Service. These boards are made up of nurses from all parts of the United States. Information about each school will be presented under a code number, so that the name of the school will not be known to members of the board of review. A list of programs approved for tl'mporary accreditation will be published sometime during the spring of 1952. The criteria being used are such that it - should be possible to include from 600 to 800 programs on the temporary list. As more then 200 will soon be on the fully approved list, the number of programs excluded from both lists will probably not be large.

Group conferences planned for representatives from the schools of nursing will be held at periodic iHtervals in key cities all over the United States. As soon as the program of the school appears ready for full accreditation, the school will be urged to write to the Nation a 1 Nursing Accrediting Service for the necessary forms. If a school that fails to meet the criteria for temporary accreditation during the first years wishes t o apply at a later date, it may do so. Schools with new programs, not included on the first list, may also apply. More detailed plans for the continuing program after the first year must gradually be worked out. In developing these plans, suggestions and c o m m e n t s from schools will be given every consideration. The above data prepared by the Nation a 1 Nursing Accrediting Service. Miss K a t h e r i n e Brim, Instructor, College of Nursing, University of Utah, was one of the thirty-five nurses to make visits for the Temporary Accreditation Program. She visited thirty-two schools in the states of Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, and Idaho. Miss Brim reported on her experience at the monthly meeting of the Utah State League of Nursing Education, January 4, 1952. She highlighted some of her observations of the new patterns in relation to schools of nursing as well as general changes in the basic curriculum in the schools which she visited.

Her lifetime ac.tivity embraced every field of nursingprivate duty, hospital superintendent, public health, Superintendent of the Army Nurse Corps, and the first national director of the American Red Cross Nursing Service. Jane Delano was born in an upstate New York hamlet in 1862. A short time afterward her father gave his life in the Civil War, just where and how his family never knew. She was too young too remember him, but the mystery of her father's death and burial shadowed her whole life and was largely responsible for her devotion to the service of soldiers of later wars. The first opportunity for public service came to Jane Delano soon after her graduation from hospital training when she became superintendent of a Florida hospital where yellow fever was raging. From this post she was persuaded by a physician to go to a squalid mining town in Arizona where many of the miners and their families had been stricken with typhoid fever . For 3 years she remained there, isolated from every normal resource of medical and sanitary service. Nursing, to Jane Delano, was something more than a means of livelihood; it was an opportunity for service. As she nursed the poverty-stricken miners she dreamed of a day when public health nurses would give to such communities nursing care and health education. This dream remained with her throughout her life and when she died she provided in her will for the support of such a service. As a hospital superintendent, Jane Delano did much to dignify the position of the individual nurse, whose status had never quite reached the professional level. A period of service in the House of Refuge gave Miss Delano a Page 8 broad understanding of the frailties of humankind. She was so successful in working with unfortunate girls that a wealthy trustee of the institution willed her a sum of money large enough to make her financially independent. In 1909 Jane Delano became head of the Army Nurse Corps but after 3 years resigned and, as a volunteer, became the national director of the American Red Cross Nursing Service. When she took office there were only 3,000 nurses enrolled with the Red Cross and nobody was thinking of war. In 2 years the shot at Sarajevo rang around the world and Europe was at war-a war that would eventually engulf her country. To Jane Delano that was a clarion call. She swung the Red Cross Nursing Service into action and helped furnish some 19,000 nurses for military establishments and hundreds to foreign service. When the war ended in 1918, worn by the years of hard work, Miss Delano died, as surely a casualty of war as if she had been killed in battle. But she had wrought better than she dreamed . -Compliments- ' {J, !z, I d 'd Finance & Insurance Co.

Out of her planning and dreaming she had built an organization which was to produce nurses for yet another war. When World War II came, 43 percent of all the registered nurses in the country en-· rolled and offered themselves for military service-an outpouring that would have warmed the great proud heart of Jane Delano. 2427 Lincoln Avenue , Ogden , Utah Next to Florence Nightingale, the founder of professional nursing, Jane Delano grips the imagination of young women who offer themselves for training as nurses- not alone by her extraordinary ability as a teacher and administrator-but by her great heart and her dedication to service. BY Alma Gaines Ramsey Appliances - Housewares In 1917, at Cleveland, Mrs. E. G. Richards had the pleasure of meeting Miss Delano who sailed very soon after for France. where she died. At the time Mrs. Richards saw her she was a "dollar a year" worker and paid her secretary from her own funds.

The Institute was spon1-0red by the Utah State Departent of Health, the Utah League f Nursing Education and the 'tah Tuberculosis Association. We were greeted by Miss Evelyn Kidneigh. After salutaons and all the usual she introuced Dr. D. 0. N. Lindberg, Med;al Director and Superintendent f the Sanitorium. Dr. Lindberg iave an inclusive, informative talk ~ncerning Modern Management of Pulmonary Tuberculosis. Followmg Dr. Lindberg was Dr. Spend.ove. Tuberculin Testing was the ·itle of Dr. Spendlove's excellent ,peech. Lunch was at 12 :30. All the adjectives one thinks of when trying to describe a very super smorgasbord are indicated with regards to this lunch. It was wonderful. Post lunch we were shown a good film on BCG Vaccination. Health Education Consultant E. Virgil Howell was responsible for geting the film to us. It wa.s good---described and showed the technique of Vaccination from the time the patient is tested to the time he is vaccinated. Special emphasis was put on making and keeping excellent records. Miss ,Jean South, a very personable, easy conversationalist gave a fine interpretation of the personal, psychological and social problems of the tuberculosis patient. Miss South is Public Health Nursing Consultant, Joint Tuberculosis Nursing Advisory Service. Following Miss South was Virginia Webb with her usual competent performance. She noted for us the classifications of patients at the State Sanatorium; also, she discussed the Social Service Department at the Sanatorium. After the program we we.re invited to tour the entire Sanatorium and if we wished observe a pneumothorax. The Institute was a · great success. Many nurses from all over the State were in attendance. Our 'thank you' goes to all those who worked hard to make it possible. Lena Besendorfer left her position as director of nurses at the City Public Health Nursing Division to go to Minnesota for some graduate study. Her studies for the most part will include further public health and a great deal of mental hygiene and psychiatry. Replacing Lena as acting Director of Nurses is Beatrice McHarg. Three new faces have made their appearance in the City Pub- lice Health group. Ethel Saunders, Mildred Nyland, and Ellyn Preas are the newcomers. We regretfully said goodbye to Margaret Mutch, Alice Harmon and Ruth Brown. Margaret is going home to be "just an easy going housewife." Alice is in California soaking up sunshine and orange juice. Ruth is in Iran doing whatever public health nurses do in this strange sounding country. On January second the student program swung into action at both the City and County Public Health Nursing Divisions. Students at the city number five and come from both L. D.

The other pamphlet, Cancer of e Genito-Urinary Tract, empha- es the urgency of early diagno' and treatment of cancer. Gen1>-urinary cancer is one of the :st common types of cancer in en, accounting for one-fifth of male deaths due to cancer. One rning that should never be igred is blood in the urine. While is does not necessarily indicate ncer, it should be brought to the ~mediate attention of a physician. ost skin cancer appears in elderpeople; it occurs most frequently geographical areas which have ng periods of sunlight; and it is idenced in persons with light or dy complexions more frequentthan those with dark skins. NURSE Cancer of the Skin-Because it is visible to the eye, skin cancer can be detected very early. Any skin sore, burn, scar, or inflammat ory lesion that does not heal promptly should, therefore, be brought to a doctor's attention, even though very few of these may be cancerous. Other skin conditions which should be particularly watched are: keratosis, a dry scaly patch usually darker than the surrounding skin, especially when accompanied by bleeding; changes in moles, particularly dark brown or blue-black, which sometimes develop into rare but extremely serious form of cancer known as malignant melanoma ; and leukoplakia, a white scaly thickening of the lip or membranes of th e mouth. Pastes, ointments, or advertised cures are especially dangerous in the treatment of skin cancer, since any self-treatment is likely to alter the appearance of the skin and make diagnosis difficult. At the present time, there are only three accepted cures for cancer of the skin or any other site. These are surgery, x-ray and radium. Personal alertness to the signs and symptoms of cancer are emphasized throughout both of the recently published pamphlets as well as the other five of a series prepared by the National Cancer Institute, in cooperation with the American Cancer Society. The first of these publications, CancerWhat to Know, What to Do About It, discusses the cancer process, the known facts about its causes, the WILDERMUTH MORTUARY "Serving All" Regardless of Faith, Creed Or Financial Position UTAH REPRINTS DIGNIFIED SERVICE j29-25th Street YARCH, 1H:i:! Phone 3-5a09 areas in which it appears, and the recogn:zed treatments. It also lists the possible signs of early cancer, which are: 1. Any lump especially in the breast. 2. Irregular bleeding or discharge from body openings. 3. Persistent indigestion. 4. Unexplained changes in bowel movements. 5. Unexplained weight loss. 6. Changes in color or size of a mole. 7. Any sore that does not heal promptly. The other four pamphlets, which complete the series, are entitled Cancer of the Breast, Cancer of the Mouth and Respiratory Tract, Cancer of the Female Reproductive Organs, and Cancer of the Digestive Tract. These pamphlets discuss the essential facts about cancers in si:ecific sites of the body, giving more specific signs and symptoms and predisposing factors for each. In an attempt to do away with false beliefs about cancer all of the i;amphlets stress that: (1) cancer is not an inherited disease; (2) cancer is not a contagious or infectious disease, like flu or measles, and (3) cancer is curable when it is diagnosed and treated properly. Single copies of the pamphlets in the series may be obtained from the National Cancer Institute, Public Health Service, Bethesda, Maryland.

Ten Good Reasons For Happiness 1. Make up your mind to be happy. Happiness is mostly a matter of self-hypnotism. You ca;n think yourself either miserable or happy. Learn to find pleasure in simple things. 2. Make the best of your circumstances. No one has everything. He has a lot to cry over and a lot to rejoice over. The trick is to make the laughter outweigh the tears. 3. Don't Take Yourself too Seriously. Don't think that somehow you should be protected against misfortunes that befall other people. 4. Since you can't please everybody, please yourself. Don't let criticisms worry you, or let your neighbor set your standards. Stay out of debt. Be yourself. Do the things you enjoy doing if you want to be comfortable and happy. LOUIS PERKINS MASONRY CONTRACTOR Mason Contractor For 5. Don't borrow trouble.
