Archer Memorial Hospital Greetings and congratulations from The Alberta Confer¬ ence Hospitals Board of the United Church of Canada! Across the Dominion during these months elderly folk are telling young folk—graduate nurses—of the nobility of the profession which the graduates are about to enter, as gradu¬ ates ; glowing, stirring words which sometimes—not always— evoke a fitting response. And yet, if one strips the nursing vocation of its appeal for devoted service, sympathetic understanding, subtle com¬ munication of the will to live, what remains? In your careers as nurses, out in a world where the cynical often supplants the sincere, where the money reward frequently looms larger than the inner satisfactions, where the practical generally wins over the ideal, may you never cease “by the vision splendid to be on your way attended.” Sincerely, NELLES V. BUCHANAN, Chairman of the Board.

SUMMO COMMISSO MlSSI Seven DR. M. A. R. YOUNG, M.D., CM., F.R.C.S. (C), F.A.C.S. iJo the Calais op 1954: I wish to extend to all members of Class 1954 my sincere congratulations on this your Graduation Day. You chose the longer and harder way to learn the Art of Nursing. Let me assure you that in the years to come you will realize that you were wise. There is no short cut to knowledge and much that is not immediately practical is the foundation of a good educa¬ tion. Because you chose training of that nature is one reason 1 extend to you my best wishes. On behalf of the Hospital may 1 say we appreciate all you have done during the past three years. Your Alma Mater hopes that you will have memories of appreciation, happy times, and satisfaction because of work well done. As you leave to captain your own boat, may the sailing be smooth and the ports of call rewarding. Cheerio. MORLEY A. R. YOUNG.
