Eighty Ida F. Epstein V Boston, Mass. Tufts Class Secretary 3. Ellis Hospital, Schenectady' Boston sent her down to spend four years in medical school with us, and we think Boston was pretty nice to let us have her. Her spirit hides a will and pur- pose strong as any cast steel could ever be. And like Elliot's tire-hearted sun, lda has always spent her strength in further striving action. Would that the rest of us could strive and carry on with such determined Will! Ot all the virtues ot a doctor, those of sincerity of purpose, of determination, of ability to carry on, will bring you success multi- plied a hundred times. But add- ed to this are your quietness and confidence, your .gentleness of manner and generosity of heart. Your name will go far, Ida. We will be watching Boston's hori- zon for the appearance of a new star in the future.

David Dragutskv l Brooklyn, N. Y. N. Y. U. B.S. Phi Lambda Kappa. E 7, Metropolitan Hospital It was lots of fun, wasn't it Dave? Remember when you thought that Medicine was all book work and consequently bought all the suggested text books? Was it not a great relief to arrive at our clinical years? You certainly received divi- dends for the enormous amount of work you did in the first two years. Always knowing what and why you were doing things, was reward enough. Further, you never permitted school work to interfere with your social obligations, regardless of the heavy demands of study. Can we ever thank you for acting as the class chauffeur? Hardly, but we can show our appreciation for your co-operativeness and helpfulness. You go forth as a qualified doctor, and as a regular fellow, and whatever you may gain in prestige and worldly goods will be well deserved. Seventy-nine

A t I William McKinley Memorial Hospital Trenton, N. I. The temptations of the big city lite to this out-of-towner may have been decidedly alluring, but there always existed the ne- cessity for mastery of assign- ments. So, resolutely turning his face from the social amenities, he performed his many tasks, ob- taining his satisiaction in the knowledge of a job well done. The habit of meticulous prepara- tion for exams remained with him in the clinical years, when no study was absolutely neces- sary-except that dictated by the pangs of conscience. Iohn will be returning, very shortly, to the distant town from which he emigrated four years ago, and we shall see him only on occa- sion, but he carries with him our best wishes and ardent hopes for an early reunion, so that we may congratulate him upon the iuccess which is so certain to be is.
