Why did we leave home and much that was dear to us in sunny California, the pic- turesque hills of Ohio and Indiana, the fertile valleys of Virginia and Pennsylvania, the wooded glens of Iowa and Missouri and Canada with all its beauty, to face the stern reality of a life of sacrifice? It must indeed have been more than a mere love of adventure-and so it was. Not only the knowledge that trained minds and capable hands are indispensable in the nursing world, but the vision of the need of the soul as well as of the physical body was its own incentive to realization. As our minds search the past, and incidents of the last three years become real once again, we recall varied experiences, the majority of which have been pleasant, but a few to be sure which have been unpleasant. It was hard to become accustomed to our new life during those first few months on the floor, but knowing that even the greatest accomplishments IDLlSt have a beginning, we donned our uniforms, armed ourselves with text books, thermometers and hypo- dermic needles and started bravely on to climb the ladder of success. Because we were quite normal we made the usual number of mistakes to supply our Seniors with amuse- ment, and we learned much by experience. Those were the days when linen closets, diet kitchens and utility rooms served a purpose other than that which their name may imply. To counteract the effect of all work and no play, we attended a large number of literary meetings, skating parties and weiner roasts, and enjoyed them thoroughly. Time passed swiftly, and almost before we were aware of it, it was our turn to leave La Junta for our term of affiliation with the Denver training schools. Our ex- perience in Denver was valuable to us many ways, but the joy of being home again was only appreciated to the fullest extetji after having been away. As we face the responsibilities which shall be ours as trained nurses, we can surely say it was good for us to have been here. The Christian environment and influences which should be a part of every nurse's training have meant much to us. It is inevitable that we shall encounter difficulties as we strive to perform our duties conscientiously, but it is blessed above all to know that Hlnasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these-ye have done it unto me.', PRISCILLA LIECHTY.
