A happy vocation
An All Saints' nurse writes: I would say to all nursery nurses, in the words of Robert Louis Stevenson, 'the salary in any business under heaven is not the only, nor indeed the first, question', and to All Saints Nurses in particular our motto, Serviendum Laetandum (in joyful service), does not mean, How little can we do to serve joyfully, but how much! Should we not rather exert ourselves and rise, when the opportunity is offered, to still greater service? 24 March 1926
New career
Nursery nursing is taking on a new meaning today, says a statement from the National Society of Children's Nurseries.
