Local Women
Attend Gift Show
At Seattle Center
Three members of the Mason
General Hospital Auxiliary viewed
the gift show at the Seattle Center
Sunday in search of supplies for
their own gift bar. Those
attending were: Mrs. Gary Nicloy,
Mrs. Art Mell and Mrs. Robert A.
Shaw.
The merchandise the women
ordered included crystal, candles,
Christmas decorations and candy.
The members reimburse this stock
through their own creation of
embroidered burlap purses.
The Auxiliary will hold their
fall luncheon later than usual this
year. The group will meet on
September 23 at Lake Limerick
Inn for the occasion.
Those interested in joining this
organization may contact Mrs.
Roy Johnson at 426-6860.
Working membership is $2 and

All women are cordially invited to

If mailing the lid in for testing, be
sure it is well padded and
wrapped to prevent injury or

Extension office in Shelton if you
wish to know where to send your

Because higher than boiling
temperature is needed to destroy
dangerous bacteria, it is essential
to have a pressure gauge which
reflects the accurate temperature
inside the cooker.
Beans, corn, beets, meats and
all low-acid foods must always be
canned in a steam pressure

Fruits and tomatoes and other
acid foods can be processed by
using a boiling water bath.
Because not all jar lids are the

come with the jar lids. Disc lids

Nursing Project Commits
Staff to Personal Beliefs
When MASON GENERAL
HOSPITAL moved into its brand
new building in Shelton, Wash.,
last fall, there was some concern
that its very bigness and newness
might adversely affect the
"personal touch" of its
exceptional nursing staff. Because
of expressed interest in the
philosophy of the nursing service,
it was decided that each nursing
employee - R.N., L.P.N. and
Aide - write up her own personal
statement on what patient care
should involve.
Guidelines and explanations
were given and a deadline set. Not
surprisingly, there was some
grumbling about this assignment
("more paperwork"!) but it was
carried out - on time. The results
proved fascinating, and
outstanding.
Side Benefits
According to director of
nursing service, Kathleen
Radcliffe, R.N., the project served
several purposes:
I. It required each staff
member to look at herself and ask
some searching, probing questions
- of herself and her job. When
she put the answers on paper, she
made a commitment to her
beliefs.
2. Nursing administration
' gained a great deal of insight into
the personnel that they serve.
3. Good patient care became
even better because of renewed
attention to individualized patient
needs.
4. The nursing staff was
personally involved in developing
one of the most important aspects
of the organization of the nursing through contit
department. +"[
