that whatever she does for the least of His children, God rewards as done to Himself, feels herself encouraged to bear every suffering and overcome every difficulty. She is independent of human approval, gratitude or praise, because she looks for her consolation, her gratitude and reward, to Him Who sees all things and Who never forgets. As you sow, you shall reap. The gratitude and appreciation of the patient depend, in great measure, on the nurse's devotedness. Cold, calculating natures, that never give themselves whole heartedly to their work, never receive that fine, spontaneous gratitude which is the tribute to true devotion. But finer still than human gratitude is the inward joy and peace which comes with the realization that our duty has been done well and from a noble motive. The confidence of others and the success which the nurse achieves in her profession by being truly devoted are also real and precious fruits of her self- sacrifice. But it is likewise true that virtue is, to a certain extent, its own reward. The good that a nurse sees resulting from her devoted, patient ministrations, the gratitude which follows her, these rewards sometimes fail. If they fail, bear even this with a constant heart. Experience shows that the happiest people on earth are those who love mankind with such a devotion that they forget them- selves in the service of others. Therefore, dear graduates, With hearts within and God o'erhead go forth upon your errand of mercy and love among your fellowmen, ever faithful to the performance of your duties. Whenever trials and hardships come, and come they will, look up and remember: Virtus in Arduisn .- Courage in Difficulties. -'Sl.Jf6l'J of flze Sacred H earf ........ .......
