Metropolitan Hospital Dynamic and high strung, Sam has charged through the rigors of medical school, undaunted and unsung. No tribute to his ceaseless medical curiosity has ever been rendered. Now, how- ever, we may publicly commend his untiring zeal and burning en- thusiasm which he has always so amply demonstrated to all who came in contact with him. In addition to his scholastic at- tainments, his well 'known lib- eral and tolerant views con- cerning social, economic, and religious questions have given him an enviable reputation. Too seldom is there this composite of scientific exactness and social liberality. He has united the two, and the result has been admirable. l-le leaves us with a fine record as a student, many mem- ories of good times, a promise of future reunions, and the knowledge that the future will portray him as a worthy physi- cian.

With a song in his heart and a smile on his lips Mac has thundered into New York from the vast forests of Westchester these past four years in search of medical knowledge. Nor has his quest been in vain, for dur- ing this period he has made the most of his opportunities. He has never shirked any duty and has never failed to perform any task, no matter how difficult. His inter- ests, excluding Medicine, are the enjoyment of the company of his fellow man, and Mac has therefore taken it upon himself to make his contemporaries con- scious of the true joy of living. Such a personality is fully un- derstandable when one remem- bers that it springs from the heart of Westchester. His traits shall linger in our memories long after commencement has passed.

John L. G-utovvski i Brooklyn, N. Y. St. Iohn's Alpha Sigma King's County Hospital There is such charm in melancholy I would not, if I could, be gay. A melancholic state does not always imply a depressed state. When Milton wrote Il Penser- oso , he meant not a man de- pressed by difficulties and hard- ships, but rather a man who planned- to overcome obstacles. I-Ie sang of a man who might one day lift himself by thought alone from the commonplace things in this World. Such a man is this dark hair- ed Brooklynite. Modern civiliza- tion has attempted to buffet him about as it has so many others, -but in vain. With unusual serenity in the face of hardship, his unruffled countenance re- flects an inner calmness which is a characteristic trait of his. An acquaintance with such a man is desirable. A friendship with such a man is invaluable. Ninety-one
