YEAR BOOK T0 THE CLASS OF 1916. Today, as I write these words, you are the Senior Classy in a few days you will be the Graduating Class of 1916, and then you will pass out to do your part in the world of work as members of one of the great professions whose sacred mission it is to heal the sick. Your ambitions will touch the sky, but I would admonish you to keep before you the supreme ambi- tion-to do the least important work as well as if it were the- most important. To him who does this will come success in full measure, but better still will come the satisfaction of knowing he has done his best. Seek not fame, for: ' Better than fame is still the wish for fame, The glorious training for a glorious strife. and: She comes unlook'd for if she comes at all. We have tried to teach you how to learn and soon you must learn for yourselves. Commence the day after gradua- tion, for to stand still is to go backward, therefore keep up with the procession. And in conclusion let me assure you that because you have left the College you have not left the memory of your instruc- tors. We shall be glad to hear of your successes as well as ready to help you in your failures. So to all success. Yours sincerely, Worthington Seaton Russell 7
