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.

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.

.ag I .M JV. :Shay Iewish Hospital of Brooklyn A real member of the intelli- gentsia, a feminist, and a stu- dent, Miss Fisher has gained the admiration of her fellow stu- dents. Her intellectual honesty and scholarly acumen have gained her many honors. She is a strong advocate of women's rights, and thereby incurs the humorous satire continually di- rected at her by fellow students. Yet, she is to be strongly com- mended for the valiant struggle. for the right of women medical students to be considered on the same basis as the men. Other women submitted to the restric- tions: only Louise fought them. And she fights against real evils: such as, the 'quota' on female medical students, the boycott of female internes, and the con- stant patronage exhibited to- ward her and her colleagues. Curiously, however, there is a complete transformation at so- cial functions, where Louise is the epitome of all that is feminine and lovely. Eiqhhf-two Louise Fischer Brooklyn, N. Y. N. Y. U. B.S.
