Preface HE RECENT years have seen the insidious progress of war. A steady stream of death and destruction has gradually displaced the principles of peace. In spite of chaos, doubt and danger, man must always endeavor to sustain life, promote health and help his friends who need his care. Therefore it is with sincere satisfaction that we present an advancement of a more humane nature -the progress of a hospital. The Class of 1941 has compiled material for this publication to present the developments of the past ten years. To give the best care and service both the Hospital and the School of Nursing have advanced in many ways. Science and the medical profession find it imperative that they be the first pedestrians on the road of progress. For this reason we have endeavored in The Lamp to give an account of the various activities, the new improvements, both in equipment and technique, and the new departments which have been established. We are greatly indebted to the various members of the Alumnae, our friends and subscribers without whose unfailing interest The Lamp could not have been published. The graciousness and kindness of the personnel of the various hospital departments in consenting to the use of their materials for photographic purposes, is greatly appre- ciated. The articles submitted by their directors make it possible to present a more accurate account of the latest developments in each branch of the hospital. THE STAFF or THE LAMP or 1941
