Home Economics Patient
Gets New Quarters
Move i3 tq Save Anna Belle’s
Wavy Complexion
! Homo Economics Patient—I)
| Good, gracious, Anna Belle, the
| patient who lives in the home econ
j omics building, has been moved
■from her regular room on the south
side of the building to one on the
| north side, because of too much sun
in her old room.
Anna Belle has a face of wax
! which can not withstand the rays
j of the sun, and hence the shift. ITer
present location is in the room
: which adjoins the kitchen, and
even such tempting odors as dough
nuts and fritters never make her
1 complain.
“She’s certainly a model patient,”
Miss Gillian Tingle said, “for even
the handling that she receives from
| the members of the home nursing
class never causes her to say a
word.”
Many plumbers, janitors, and
[others have been frightened at the
sight of Anna Belle, peacefully
resting in her bed, before they dis
cover that she is only a dummy
patient who is not startled by ex
clamations of intruders into the sick
room.
