Address from ALUMNAE PRESIDENT Dear Graduates: This is for you one of the most beautiful and memorable days of your lives. It is the day to which you have looked forward for so long and opens a very important doorway. Yester¬ day you were students, protected by the school of nursing. Today you have obtained the title of Graduate, and as such must face problems which you have until now been able to take to one of your supervisors. You have taken another step up the ladder of your careers. May you not stop climbing here but continue on up the ladder to greater professional achievements! From the Alumnae Association of the Holy Cross Hospital, I extend to you hearty congratulations and best wishes for a happy and successful future. Whatever field of nursing you enter or whether you marry and become homemakers, we wish you the very best of luck. I now take this opportunity to welcome you as new graduates into the Alumnae as either active or associate mem¬ bers. The membership fee is $2.00 per year for active members and $1.00 for associate members. Our meetings are held in the Assembly Hall of the Hospital on the first Wednesday of the month from September to June. I hope you will all become and remain members as it is now as much your Alumnae as it is ours. You will find that the Alumnae is one way of keeping contacts with fellow graduates. Through our Alumnae News we are able to hear of classmates who have gone in search of greener fields. At our meetings we see friends whom we otherwise would lose contact with. Our meetings are usually quite short and we are always provided with excellent entertainment followed by excellent food at the end of our business meeting. We will be looking forward to having you as members. May God bless you and guide you to happiness and success. Elsie J. McLean, R.N. President of The Alumnae Association of the Holy Cross Hospital.
