MARSTOMS ' Mms* ¦ ¦ i -nm For many years a group of civic minded women have been giving time each week to serve the com- munity through the organization of the Red Cross. This group, known as the Gray Ladles, may be doing little of a spectacular nature but their services are of the greatest value and comfort to the many patients of the Cape Cod Hospital. There are about twenty women In the group, representing eight of the village s not far from Hyannis. The members must take a six-hour course given by the Red Cross and they then must serve a probation- ary period of twenty hours under the direction of an experienced member of the group. The training courses are given at frequent in- tervals and, once the candidate is accepted, she gives a five-hour day once a week In carrying out the duties required of her. The Gray Ladles have many du- ties, such as doing receptionist Work for the outpatient department and also keeping the examination room In order. They distribute the morning mail and deliver flowers to the rooms. Many newspapers are contributed and these are dis- tributed by the Gray Ladles; there are errands to be run, telephone messages to he carried between patlnt and family. Some patients are unable to write their own let- ters because of disability and this is another thing which is done to help build morale. Patients are transported to the X-ray rooms, they are fed and library books are obtained for them. When the hospital patient is a young child It often takes Ingen- uity to keep his Interest and thus speed his recovery. Nursos are busy with their work for which they have been specifically trained and the work done by the Gray Ladles - theBQ ladieB you see in the hospital In gray uniforms - are actually Increasing the nursing staff efficiency. Of course, all of this work Is of u voluntary nature and it requires proper care and ability. Gray Ladies from villages of Barnstable Include: Miss May Fay, and Mrs. Roger Lyon, Barnstable; Mrs .
