(Ack. 8-28-20)\nIt is somewhat of a disappointment to be\nobliged to write you of Miss Morrison's decision to resign as Director\nof the Bureau of Instruction, her resignation to take effect October\nthe first. She wishes to return to training school work and has\naccepted a position in charge of the Training School at the Chil-\ndren's Hospital, Denver.\nWhile we regret very much losing Miss Morrison,\nwe consider ourselves very fortunate in securing Miss Alice E. Lake #\n884\nto fill the position of Director of Instruction. I think you may\nremember Miss Lake's work as Secretary of the Colorado State Committee\non Red Cross Nursing Service. She has been very much interested in\nRed Cross activities and has been identified with the Division office\nmore or less, and also went to France in special Red Cross service,\nMiss Lake has held a responsible position connected with the Training\nSchool at the Children's Hospital for a number of years, and the\npresent Superintendent can hardly speak of her leaving; it is a matter\nof such regret. Whatever Miss Lake has undertaken has always been\nso well done that we feel that we could not make a mistake in this\nselection.\nI have taken up Miss Lake's appointment with\nthe Division Manager and he is in favor of her appointment.\nOrignial letter filed in Bureau of Home Hygiene & Care of the Sick\n(Mountain Division)\nDuplicate filed in\nmin morrison's jacket #8087"
