Vernon Hospital The world's no better ii we Worry, Life's no longer if We hurry. lt has been rightly said- there's one fact that Ed will e'er nurse, that all exams he'll finish first. Here is a man of our class who has shown a vivid trans- formation in personality during these past four years. l-le began as a plugger keeping perfect at- tendance. We know his interest in medicine still keeps him abreast of his work, but, as for attendance, we don't see him quite so often Cask Dr. MJ. Of late, we have come to re- gard him as a recluse, and when seen we hear no more new or old jokes. Now at the portals of his professional life, there can be little doubt that he will enjoy the fulfillment of a long life of ser- vice and success. One hundred three

i -rl :. -Q 4.5 if alkyl 1 A I Israel Zion Hospital Too ready to please. Unfortunately, as medical stu- dents, we have reached the satu- ration point where he who is really anxious to be friendly and co-operative is held as a suspect of being naively young. Eli, how- ever, has never quite understood this fact, and he has therefore continued amicably to deal with his classmates, never realizing that not all were as gentlemanly as he. ln his studies, Eli was primarily interested in obtaining tools with which he could think medically, and only secondarily in passing examinations. l-low unlike the rest of us! Curiously, or probably as a consequence, his grades were always good. A gentleman and scholar, he commences his career with our very best wishes, and sincere hopes that he achieves the goal for which he is aiming. One hundred two Elias Livingston New York City.

Thomas F. Lynch I New York City. Fordham B. S. A. M. S. A. 4. Beta Rho O h d diour Flower Hospital May We introduce the fluent and well-informed Dr. Lynch? Honest effort and a natural in- telligence is a combination which too often is allowed to lie dormant by individuals possess- ing it. Tom's successful coales- cence of both of these qualities has resulted in an enviable re- cord. l-Iis discovery of the intesti- nal parasites in junior pediatrics proves the point. Neat in his dress, kind in his corrections, keen-minded in his observations, charming in his presence and address - he makes a picture long to be re- membered. But there was some- thing more to Tom-a capacity for companionship. This virtue arises from his affability, con- geniality, unlimited pleasant- ness, unaffected condescension, supreme benevolence and a graciousness unegualled. We should like to wish him luck- but that would be something of superfluity, for chance plays a small part when ability suffices.
