You'll never walk alone Pat is the smallest member of our class but far from the least energentic, she's a real slick chic . When you hear that, Life is a bowl of cherries , Pat is around somewhere trying to cheer up her- self or someone else. She is known as the one-man woman. We could say more about that, but may it suffice to say that her favorite subiects are Roger, Roger, and Roger. Pat is a great lover of Nursery work. Her ability to feed babies is coveted by anyone who doesn't have the patience. But don't give your ability away, Pat, it may be valuable to you someday. ORPHA GIBBLE Orph Myerstown R. D. 2, Pa. I get ideas Oh Gee! fits our classmate Orpha, whose initials are the same. She comes to us from Myerstown, of which there is a slight trace in her speech. She usually makes the lights off but we like her just the same. It isn't hard to note a slight rose tinge to her complexion when there is a ioke in store. Orpha may seem shy till you get to know her but once you do, you will find she is always full of tricks. In her spare time, if she isn't doing a care study, you will find her knitting or sewing. Her delicious cakes always are welcomed around 5I9 . The nurses in the other nurses' homes just don't have a chance. Orph's favorite service was surgical nursing. Best of luck to you for your future years. twenty-one

Neat figure, shining brunette hair and an attractive vvardrobe describe our Jo to a If you vvant to go to a movie, play a game of pinochle or have a good gripe session, you can be sure Jo will be willing to ioin in. She enioys dancing and knitting and usually is seen with her roommate Dee . Some may think .lo is frail , but vve know different. You should see her take care of those patients on Women's Surg. As our class historian, she has kept a record of all our activities. Jo likes surgical nursing and hopes to enlist in the Navy Nurse Corps. With her dependability and determination, vve are sure she will find success. MARY ELLEN GROFF M.E. Strasburg R. D. l, Penna. With a song in my heart Groffie is one vvho can go about her work in a quiet, unobtrusive manner and accomplish much. She can be depended upon to help in any of our class activities besides being a loyal sup- porter of the Christian Nurses' Fellowship. Mary Ellen's mellovv alto voice is a boon to many a duet or quartette to say nothing of Mon- day night chorus. She claims that an alarm clock ringing at 6 A.M. is her pet gripe and her room- mates vvill declare that she never shuts off her alarm until it has rung fifteen minutes. Even though Mary Ellen was usually in on all the rip-roarin' times in the nurses' home, she sees the serious side of life and is a very conscientious, dependable nurse. l l twenty-three
