To the Class of 1919: In the work which is to follow the discipline and drudgery of your training-school days, it is my Wish that you may never h21V6 occasion to regret them. KSignedj T. TURNER THOMAS. Dear Friends: The last two years have been strenuous ones for both nurses and physicians, Whether under the urgency of war service, or under the stress of hospital or civil practice. Your Class, like the Medical Class of 1918 and 1919, have Worked under the handicap of a greatly decreased corps of instructors, hence your scholastic life has been more difficult, but in the face of all of these difficulties those of us who have Watched your work in the clinic and in Ward service feel that you have come through most creditably. Added to this increased burden came the tragic epidemic of influenza, which claimed its victims with the virulence of the plagues of a century ago. ln this crisis, you shirked not, even though some of your members bravely fell at their posts. Through this splendid service to the great number of stricken ones, you have an especial claim for our highest admiration and regard. lt is, therefore, a great pleasure to congratulate your Class upon the completion of aniunusually trying year, full of difficulties to each member, and, therefore, especially replete with honor. With such a satisfactory record behind you, I am sure your future Will be a bright and happy one. ' Gordiezlly yours, Y fSign-edj JOHN G. CLARK. Best wishes for the Class of 1919, on entering a profession Without whose aid our profession would be helpless. KSignedj BARTON CooKE HIRST. 22 1w+:::2vw1sa4'-1. .--2 f . .. . .
