Book excerpt: Excerpt from City of Chicago Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium: Staff of Nurses of the Dispensary Department It is well known that the gathering of facts and study of literature essential to the preparation of a paper on a certain subject is a very productive method of acquiring information. If the paper is to be presented to your own group of co-workers, and the subject covered by it represents an important phase of their work, or an analysis of some of its underlying principles, then there is a further incentive to do your best, as well as an opportunity for a general discussion which acts as a sieve for the elimination of false ideas and gradual formulation of true conceptions. Lectures on various phases of the work being done by a particular group of people are very important. Papers by the workers themselves are, however, greatest incentives to study and self-advancement. With this view in mind, I suggested the organization of a Tuberculosis Study Circle by the Dispensary Nurses of the Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium. The nurses chosen to present papers on particular phases of tuberculosis arc given access to the library of the General Office of the Sanitarium; they are also given the assistance of the General Office in procuring all the necessary information through correspondence with various organizations and institutions in Chicago and other cities. As the program stands at present, the Nurses' Study Circle meets twice a month. At one of these meetings a lecture on some important phase of tuberculosis is given by an outside speaker, and at the next meeting a paper is read by one of the nurses. At all of these meetings the presentation of the subject is followed by general discussion. The program since January, 1914, was as follows: January 9th, 1914 - "Historical Notes on Tuberculosis," by Miss Rosalind Mackay, Head Nurse, Stock Yards Dispensary of the Municipal Tuberculosis Sanitarium.
