Remarks by Miss Carroll The time of preparation lias at last drawn to a close, and you are to take up work on your own responsibility in your chosen field. God speed you. If with the enthusiasm of youth you combine the steadfast purpose to be sincere and honest with e very one whose well-being depends even remotely upon your efforts, there will come to you that most prized of all possessions, the consciousness that you have given the best that is in you to the service of your country and indeed of humanity at large. The conviction that such a course is almost certain to redound to your own individual advantage may serve as an additional incentive, should such incentive be needed. If your material reward seems meager, and your services appear to win little or no recognition outside of a narrow field, you will at least have the satis- faction of knowing that you have been faithful to the trust imposed upon you. and true to your own higher self.
