f ?iQ,AJf'C6 And when some clouds upon us came, Which strove to blacken o'er our ray, Then purer spread a gentler flame, And brightness came with us to stay. And now from such a splendid scene, Folks, turn an eye, as time grows later, To View unheeded and unseen, The studious daughters of Alma Mater. Since now the hour is come at last, And all our wishes are to recover, For our last exam. is past, One pang more, and all is over. To think of every early scene Of what we are, and what we've been, Would whelm some other hearts with woe, But we have bravely stood the blow. Success is ours on every page, An epitaph on every tongueg The present hours, the future age, For us bewail, .to us belong. We have passed some happy hours, We've had our hardships, joys and fears While within these college towers, Where we have spent the last three years. Where from our Alma Mater's height, We now, with unobstructed view, Scan the future, dim or bright 3 And lingering, bid farewell to you. MINNA STEYERT. Page Ez'gl1ty-nine

'CQQAZVCZ Ggpening Qhhrnas Delivered by MISS URSULA LONG, at Class Day Exercises, May 22, 1922. DEAR FACULTY, UNDERGRADUATES, RELATIVES AND FRIENDS: HE class of 1922 bids you a hearty Welcome. Your presence cheers us tonight, even as your best wishes have encouraged us during the past three years. How short that time has been! How many things have happened! Three years ago our highest aim was to gain a place for ourselves in the nursing field. Today we rate the character of the nurse above the work she-does. We have learn-ed a devotion to service counts for more than mere efficiency. A It is true, however, that she who becomes most efficient is given the best chances in the profession. But the lasting joy of life is not in gain- ing the largest opportunities, but in the completeness with which she meets her everyday duties and is content to accept the chance for giving such love and service as actually falls to her lot. We hope that as we go away from here, we may render service to all, not narrowed by any kind of prejudice, with courtesy, and with hope and endurance which disappoint- ment can not touch. Thus each will deny herself, take up her duties, and each will find life and happiness. Some of the program is serious, some gay, but to all of it I again welcome you in behalf of the class of 1922.
