SUBJECT

Margas
On May 5th you wrote a memorandum to Miss Sarah Margaret
Thomas, R. N., in response to a letter which she wrote
to you, criticizing the lay leadership of her local chap-
ter.
I have known Miss Thomas over a period of years, and re-
gard her as a problem. She is an individual who must work
alone. She was formerly employed by the Idaho Tuberculosis
Association and went about over the state teaching a short
Home Nursing Course, but as far as I know, in all the
years she worked in Idaho she never did teach a course for
Red Cross certification. Recently she retired and is liv-
ing in San Leandro. She has started to teach Home Nursing
under Adult Education, and is authorized by the Red Cross.
However, criticisms have come to me from nurses connected
with the University, indicating that her teaching is not
satisfactory in that she uses miniature equipment, and the
students do not have an opportunity to practice. We have
been thinking of ways in which we might be able to approach
this problem.
