My best wishes go to this Class of 1921, and my hope that the years that come will strengthen and develop you in giving the service that has always been the ideal of your profession. F our years of training have shown you that the life of a nurse is one of much self-sacrifice, but those years have also made you see how well worth while that sacrifice is. Taggart wrote these lines which carry my message to you: All service is reactive, and returns Upon the server, as a mirror burns Back to the sun its life-inflaming ray. Yours is the office thus to comfort pain, To cool the fevered, bring back health again, And to the darkened mind restore the day. May all your hours thus in blessing bless, Till you, when all is done, confess That your high service gladdened your own way. FLORENCE ELIZABETH KRAKER, M.D. Shakespeare must have had in mind the ideal nurse when he said: How far that little candle sheds its light, So shines a good deed in a naughty world. D. CASE-BLECKSCHMIDT, M.D. You have been instructed, advised, admonished, and at times praised, but in spite of any faults you may have had during train- ing you have now overcome them by hard work, close application and diligence. Because of your cheerful personality and willingness to oblige, even under the most trying circumstances, success is assured you. R. HARTLEX', M.D. If at first you don't succeed Try, try again. These are the girls that will succeed For they will try and try again. E. BACON, M.D. 9
