Deeply rooted in the nursing profession and in the Hfe of Chicago, the story of St. Luke ' s Hospital and School of Nursing unfolds as an inspiration to all who are of nursing, from nursing and for nursing. — The editor of First page 15, July, 1950. The purpose of the school is: to maintain a standard of ideals commensurate with the needs of today and tomorrow worthy of the high ideals of the founders; . . . — So the school has endeavored to live throughout its 65 years. Six stu- dents graduated in 1887, 52 in 1950. From a modest building on Indiana Ave- nue in 1885 new buildings have been added and some since torn down to make way for other new buildings. The Stickney House for the school was built in 1898, the Smith Memorial on Michigan Avenue in 1908, in 1925 the 21 story building on Indiana Avenue, in 1928 Grace Episcopal Church was dedicated south of the hospital, in 1943 Schweppe House, the present home of our school was dedicated and in 1948 the Morton Clinic Building was opened. So build- ings followed buildings to serve the program of the hospital and the school, but more important than buildings were the lives of service dedicated to the needs of the hospital and the school and the community. Two thousand six hundred and forty three nurses have graduated since the founding of the shool and over 300 of these graduates came to pay tribute to their alma mater and to greet old friends and to make new friends at the 65th anniversary held May 25th through May 27th. The festivities started with the beautiful graduation service in St. James ' Church on Thursday. Fri- day afternoon Schweppe House was crowded for the Homecoming Tea, proud mothers brought their children, classmates renewed friendships, senior students met leaders of the profession returned for the reunion. Friday night the John B. Murphy Memorial Auditorium was the scene of the one formal meeting of the celebration. Miss Nellie X. Hawkinson, Professor of Nursing Education of the University of Chicago, and Dr. G. K. Fenn, Senior Attend- ing Physician at St. Luke ' s Hospital were the principal speakers. Dr. Fenn spoke of the rich heritage St. Luke ' s has given her doctors and nurses. Miss Hawkinson spoke of education for nurses of the future. The school chorus sang and the finale of the program was an historical pageant of nursing, little Miss Nancy Leahy, age 4, in full student uniform, brought much applause as the St. Luke ' s nurse of the future. Saturday morning a short talk on the future of Our School of Nursing prefaced demonstrations of modern nursing care in the various specialties. After the demonstrations over 200 nurses were guests of our Woman ' s Board at a lovely buffet luncheon. Walter, our pastry cook, excelled his skills with a beautiful and delicious six tier birthday cake which greeted the guests and was later served. The climax of the celebration was the annual Alumnae ban- quet Saturday evening, made especially distinguished by the presence of Miss Julia Dawson, class of ' 95, representatives of the 50 year class and many representatives of the 25 year class, as well as over 300 graduates, one of whom flew from Sweden to attend. Members of the graduating class were inspired guests of the Alumnae Association. The whole celebration was jointly sponsored by the St. Luke s Hospital School of Nursing Alumnae Association and our Nursing Council. Much credit for its success goes to Mrs. Floyd Millis, class of ' 31, our president, and to Mrs. James Gough, class of ' 21, general chairman. The Anniversary was more than a friendship gathering, it was a deep expression of affection, loyalty and solicitude to our alumnae association, hospital and school, the kind of affection, loyalty and solicitude which will give our nurses the support which will hold them strong and steady for the best in nursing education and nursing service. MADHLEINK McCONNELL Director of St. Luke s Hospital School of Nursing tfm t)tiM Cateia, We hUicate Out Annual This is the only way we as a group of student nurses, can show our deepest appreciation for all you have done for us. Your help as well as your great interest in our personal and universal well-being has meant much. In and outside the daily classroom and in your ofF-hours, as busy as you were, you always had time to hear our prob- lems and difficulties, trivial to others, but great in our eyes. We cannot actually express our true gratitude for the marvelous things you have done for us here but can only say — just thank you.

' Page 43 May, 1960 Dear Wiebe, I ' ll bet you get lonesome over there in Liberia sometimes don ' t you? It sure is too bad you couldn ' t have made it back for the 75th Anniversary at Lukes— it really was quite an affair — similar to the 65th. Best of all though was finding out all about the Class of 50 and what they are doing now. Colleen Comitts Meller held a reunion tea for the 50 Class at her home, the newly remodeled Theta Zi House. The interior decorating was done by Elaine Worthington who flew in early from California especially to do the job. Elaine Johnson opened the door for us, she ' s working as a maid now with better hours and more pay than she ever got at Lukes. Norma Gehl- bach and her Jack hand raised all the house plants on their farm before sending them to Colleen. Coralie Maurer has taken a job dancing at the Casino and is competing for the title of Miss Bubble Burst of 1960. Dee Lind is the Chief Crystal gazer there and for 25c will tell you anything you want to know. The former Patsy Dressendorfer has written a memoir of her nurses training days which is just off to the Pub-lishers called The Divine Spirit of Youth . Joyce Whitten and Mary Fairbanks arrived in plaid men ' s suits- purple and orange — they found that Spike Jones pays more than St. Lukes (it ' s more fun too. ) We were all thrilled when Doris Mills dropped in for a few minutes. She is the new director at St. Lukes — we always did think that girl dynamic. Barb Campbell has taken over Miss Gilbert ' s job and is finally putting her hospital reforms into effect. Her Chief Assistant is Overtime total Jo Bowen, she ' s accurate and treats graduates and students alike. Grace Schlener has recently become Dean of Education in Charge of Nursing and spends her time flying around the country lecturing on The Joys of Becoming a Nurse. Several others are still around Lukes too — among them Gladys Nygard working nights on Mil, is studying madly for her degree, and keeping house on the side; Jean Ohman stayed on to take Miss Van de Steegs place, and Marty Brannon has returned to work weekends on that cotton-Pickin Ml 5. Gretchen Brown is headnurse on M7, it ' s the same efficient floor but v. ' hat a change in atmosphere. It was so good to .see jolly Maxine Troyer again, she is now Director of the Quiet Contagious Hospital — a branch of the old M.C.D.H. Ruth Knapp works as one of ' her headnurses in charge of 3-3 after training under Miss Logan. Ruth Rinnie and Ran Nevers are running a hospital for little monsters with Dr. Alan Taylor as chief staff doctor. Jakie Camel and Nancy Child arc just back from Sp.iin — the look in their eyes- must be those mad Spaniards. Janie Rosford (McQuire) is ruiiniiu] tlic social e ciits in iior coniuiunitv. She is 1 lead of the Wcmucii ' s Hoard raising funds fm- a new luispital. We have some sad news too, Mary Ann Moeller is receiving shock treat- ments—she thinks ' she ' s a St. Luke ' s Cap. Everyone is going wild trying to get someone to take over the business. Jean Maclsaac and Mary Jane Lemkuil arrived with a sample of their ware, which they sell at the Platter Palace on the Board Walk of Atlantic City — Boston Baked Beans. Adrienne Bankert arrived in a flurry of photographers who begged for pictures— incidentally her latest is The Way of All Men . Also playing with her is Ruth Braner who portrays the busy housewife who is trying her new formula — F... H,,0.j,,-, on her husband Lou ' s test tubes. Colette Bakke sent a letter with her regrets; she and husband (Dr. Cadena) had just inoculated all the little Mexicans at Elsie Vetter ' s mission station in the hills. The former Janie Jorgenson and her husband just went on their second honeymoon alone. They left the children with Bruce ' s mother. Betty Hoffine is settled in Michigan and is contentedly raising five lovely children and taking care of Ted. Also home but in Indiana is Janice Spohn who couldn ' t get away from her devoted husband and children. Evelyn Santay is married to the governor of Indiana and is hoping some- day to be first lady of our land. Marge Buyer is struggling to make ends meet— it isn ' t easy with the chil- dren. Pat Elliott McDonald has enough money but has been snow bound in upper Michigan for months now. Dorothea Waller is learning to cook after Kenny finally put his foot down. Marge Hathaway is living in Hawaii again with her second sailor husband. Jean Hunter really floored us all when she came in in her snappy Navy Uniform she ' s just been promoted to a Captain . Doris Carlson, Tish Gamble, and Carol Perry have opened a home for Eligible Men . Elizabeth Wade ' s husband struck oil several years ago— she just donated enough money to Luke ' s for a graduate nurses home. Louise Curtis was still talking about her wedding. Marge Peterson Hungnes is expecting — Dean to finish his Residency soon. Elva Dalenberg Tetrick couldn ' t tear herself away from Tet to come but sent word saying — Married life is wonderful. Sal Ashton can ' t be found anywhere. Our guess is that she returned to Gary — and who can find anyone in Gary? Peter and I just built a new guest house which is reserved for any of the 50 Class who need to set up six weeks residency in Reno. Flossie Montella and Mary Ellen Scott were our first guests. Gee, I hope I haven ' t missed anyone — don ' t think I have. Do write and tell me about your work with the natives. Love Jessie Page 45 It Horn Ashton, Sally 1635 W. 5th Ave Gary. Ind.

The school of our hearts always. To the cap, to the cross, to the whites and their glorious happiness, To the youth, to the fire, to the life that is moving and calling us. To the hopes, to the goals, to the service of God and humanity, To the hearts, to the minds, of those who have traveled this way. 0. $CH0 Let me be your scrub nurse I ' m in love with you.
