Immanuel Lutheran College

and friendly intercourse with one’s fellow-Lutherans
helps greatly to bring cheer to the homesick heart.
The meals are looked forward to with joyful antici-
pation, as are also the periods of daily exercise,
since these all help'to make the day pass faster.
But before a person can go to his meals and take
his daily exercise, his pulse and temperature must
be back to normal.

“The men and women have their own recreation-
rooms, in which a piano, a phonograph, and a radio
set are placed. We don’t get much out of the radio
at night, as we must leave the recreation-room at
8.30 so as to be ready for bed at 9.00, when the
lights must be out. Now and then we have a movie
or slides with a lecture. We have already had some
very interesting lectures.

“T need not tell you that the patients get the
very best of care. The doctors and nurses have
sympathy with the patients, and the slightest com-
plaint is considered. We have a fine staff of nurses.
They are most kind and considerate and spread good
cheer wherever they go. They are untiring in their
efforts to help us and make us comfortable. Rev.
Feiertag, who is the superintendent of the Sani-
tarium, has the spiritual welfare of the patients at
heart. He holds regular services in our ward,
which is used as a chapel. These services, which
are so very impressive and uplifting, we would have
to do without in any other sanitarium. We also
have our Bible class.and Walther League meetings.
Just at present we are trying to put ourselves over
100 per cent. in the Christmas Seal drive. I hope
your Leaguers are doing their utmost to help us
along. If they could see the wonderful work done
with the money derived from the sale of these
Christmas Seals, tney would try to do more.

“With the wonderful care given me here and
the help of the Great Physician, Jesus Christ, with-
out whom we can do nothing, I have recovered well
enough to leave hére next month. It takes about
a year for an incipient case like mine to be cured,
while some must stgy longer, and some the Lord
calls to Himself, away from all suffering. I shall
have nothing but praise for the Sanitarium when
I leave, as I have here also been strengthened in my
faith besides being cured physically.

“T suppose you get a copy of the Sanitarium
Review, our paper, in which you will see some in-
teresting articles written by visitors. I am not very
good at writing letters, but when one’s heart is full
of joy and gratitude, as mine is, the: words come
some way anyhow.
