TI-IE ANNUAL CLASS HISTORY In the month of September 1919 Entered the new probie class- Strange to be seen. There were only six of them in all Wandering up and down the hall. First comes Miss Hodgson, so neat and prim To whom we take our hats to trim. Miss Meitzler is next, so gentle and mild, That we all agree she's a very good child. Miss Taylor, welll say, is just slightly fat, But we love her so much we don't notice that. Miss Hendrickson is tall with brown hair and eyes,- And she walks so fast she almost flies. Next comes Miss Barnett who married her Joeg And Miss Crays also left us, we were sorry to have her go. Well! Now I'll tell you about five more, Who came in training a few months before. Miss Payne, who is Senior of our Class of '22, Always helps the rest of us to things we can't do. Along comes Miss Jenkins who surely won't care, If we publish her pet expression, Now Girls, that's not fair! Little Miss Parker, so cheerful and gay, Is always happy when things come her way. Miss Selby raves of nature and wonderful things, Of birds, bees and flowers all day long she sings. And here is Miss Buckley, bless her little hearty In mischief and fun she'll always take her part. Then late in October the Misses Pyle, too, you'll see- The eldest is Bertie and the youngest is Vee, We may say that Miss Lowder, who is very light-hearted, Can talk much adventure when she gets started.

Tl-IE ANNUAL nurse. There should be happiness in every' life, of course, but she especial- ly needs to possess joy and cheer, not merely for her own sake but that she may bring them to her patient. The Training School and its officers appre- ciate this need and co-operate heartily in the effort to give pleasure its right- ful place in the school life. Having been intrusted with the charge of such a school, I Wish to invite other young Women to come andjoin the ranks of pupil nurses who have al- ready signified their desire to be enrolled with the number of those who serve humanity and this invitation I am sure is seconded by the students of the school, by the Alumnae of the hospital and most emphatically by the class of 1922, who are so soon to embark on their greater S-E-R-V-I-C-E. HELEN E. WOOD, R. N., Superintendent of School of Nurses. at SENIOR CLASS SONG Gold and White our colors are- This class of '22. Gold stands for honor bright And the service We render, too. We have our faults like any class And We've blunders made in our happy past, But vve'll all be leaving soon. S-E-R-V-I-C-E Is our motto strong and true, And vve'll do our best to follow it. Our class of '22, Undaunted We do our best to be, We're full of fun and jollity: So We'll work-Work-Work with a right good will- This class of '22. So here's to the gold and White, We're loyal in the right. We're full of pep and courage too And loyal to our dear Lake View. A happy class and true. llhrrff'i1aw':rIg1-om'
