Many changes have taken place since the first class graduated, but the standards of the school have remained high. We who are leaving, feel sure that our school will always be one of which to be proud and we shall endeavour to be worthy representatives of it wherever we may be. I wish to take this opportunity to express my thanks to those whose efforts and time made this book possible. A. HOLTBY IS YEAR BOOK COMMITTEE Editor Miss A. Holtby Assistant Editor Miss J.

Dick 19 VALEDICTORY They say life is a Highway, And its Milestones are the Years, And now, and then, there ' s a tollgate, Where we pay our way with tears. It ' s a rough road, and a steep road, And it stretches broad and far, But it leads at last, to a So ' den Town, Where Golden Houses are. Looking back on our highway of life up to this time, we, the Graduating Class of 1953, are able to recall many events which we would consider milestones on that road. Tonight, I believe we would all say that one of the mcst important of these is the mile¬ stone which marked our entrance into the Re¬ gina General Hospital School of Nursing. With this thought in mind, the normal reaction is to surrender to a brief contemplation on the three years which have passed since then, marking that all important milestone,—To¬ night, our Graduation . We all smile inwardly as we picture our¬ selves as we were when we were accepted into our Training School. All of us intensely interested and eager, as beautifully fresh and green as the roses which we hold tonight; but with one thought and one purpose fore¬ most in our minds—to be the best nurse ever to graduate from this school. At that time, Graduation was a sort of goal, shining far in the future, many miles down our highway of life. The road was straight and smooth, and our main thought was to travel it safely, quickly and competently. We found, however, that we did occasion¬ ally come to tollgates on our road, that at times the way was certainly rough and steep. We all agree that there were times when we thought our road was broader and stretched much more distant than was actually neces¬ sary! Very few of us were accustomed to residence life, hospital routines and experi¬ ences. Among other things, it taught us that for every tear there is a smile, for every sadness, joy, and for every life that ebbs, there is a bright new one, full of promise and potentiality. Above all, we learned the beauty of hope, and within us grew faith for the ultimate good. We were given the op¬ portunity to face life ' s situations and to make appropriate decisions. Through this we gained self-confidence and a fine feeling of satis¬ faction in cur work, which is based on experi¬ ence and education. Each of us, I ' m sure, has experienced a wonderful sense of responsibility which stems from a feeling of being needed, when the welfare of our patients was entrusted to our care. The need for nurses exists only because of the need of humanity. To that need, we owe a devotion to duty and a true desire to serve. The people whom we serve, in turn, glorify us with a high ideal of character and altruism—these are the gifts they bestow on us. In our rich storehouse of memories, most important of all, perhaps, are the many true friends which we have made, and the varied experiences which we have shared. Friendship is inherent in nursing. There are no barriers of class, creed or cc ' or—they are non-exist- ant. It is inevitable that in three years ' time there would be a bond formed between us 20 that is a means of exchange of thoughts and ideals—a bond which is unbreakable, for we have had a common goal, a common cause, and hence a common understanding. And so, we depart from student life with open and disciplined minds, with human insight and sympathies—all enriched through our associ¬ ations in the class of 1953. We like to think of nurses as being socially inspired, scientifically trained experts in their own special art—one which is still the most gentle and beautiful of all arts. The world today remains war torn, and somewhat peace-stunned, and there are many indications that there are critical days ahead. The nursing profession, being well established internationally, having had experi¬ ence in working with people of many races and social backgrounds, has, therefore, an opportunity to forward the cause of peace, and international brotherhood. This we can do only with courage, with charity, and with the help of God. For two years now, we have watched with pride as our friends who went before us graduated, but with a feeling of regret that these associations were being broken. Now, OUR three years have passed, and WE are the ones who are leaving. Tonight we can see that our highway has always had by-roads which have influ¬ enced our travels. Our parents, the Training School, cur instructors, the doctors and our c ' assmates, are the by-roads, and they have all influenced our lives as we passed along the highway. They have helped make this day possible. At this time may we render our heartfelt thanks to all of these people? To Miss Thompson, our Superintendent of Nurses, we express our sincere gratitude. We cannot adequately voice our appreciation to the Training School Staff and Ward Super¬ visors—they have passed into our keeping knowledge which is invaluable. To the doc¬ tors, may we say a sincere thank you ? You have given freely, and willingly, of your time, knowledge, and advice. To a ' l of you, the moulders of our professional characters, we will strive to hold high the standards of our hospital. There is a very special place in our hearts for our parents. They have given us cheer, courage, and wise guidance, so many times when it was needed. You, who have filled our student life so fuil of good things, may we say—since we are taking so much of you with us, we hope sincerely that our future lives will prove worthy of your many efforts on our behalf. To those of you, who have not yet com¬ pleted your training, we feel inadequate for the role of offering advice. Our experience is not yet advanced to a place where we feel that our advice would be of much value. But we do urge you to be loyal to the principles of our Training School. It will help you dis¬ cover a framework of correct conduct, that will aid you in forming for yourselves, habits of thought and action which underlie accepted ideals of a professional nurse, and a useful citizen. We want you to know that we are with you—confident that you will prove your¬ selves in the future as you have thus far along the way. If your horizon sometimes seems to dose in, and the path which is set before you at times seems much too narrow, remember that flowers of quiet happiness will bloom along the way—and there will al¬ ways be the bend in the road. May I leave with you the thought so beautifully expressed by William Penn, in the lines— I shall pass through this world, but once. Any good that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer it, or neg¬ lect it, for I shall not pass this way again. Now, there is a bend in o u r road, which has always before seemed so straight and open; but we feel that, as we round that bend, our horizons will be wider than we had ever dreamed they would be. All the beyond will be ours, with its possibilities shining rosily in the oncoming years. This thought is a challe nge; it leaves us just a little humble, but more than a little happy. The joys of sincere work, worthy aspiration, congenial friendship, and our birthright of fancies and ideals will always be ours. Finally, on this our Graduation Night, may we set forth still another challenge—that of the beautifully expressed Florence Nightingale Pledge: I solemnly pledge myself before God and in the presence of this assembly, to pass my life in purity and to practice my profes¬ sion faithfully. I will abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous, and will not take or knowingly administer any harmful drugs. I will do all in my power to maintain and elevate the standard of my profession and will hold in confidence all personal matters committed to my keeping and all family affairs coming to my knowledge in the practice of my calling. With loyalty will I endeavour to aid the physician in his work and devote myself to the welfare of those committed to my care . —A. SANBORN.

James 60 SOMETHING NEW IN NURSING We are very proud To announce the establishment of the new Centralized Lecture Program for nursing students in Saskatche¬ wan. This is a new venture in Canada and is unique in that it is the only one of its kind. It has been evolved from the best features of successful experiments in the United States. All high school students will be particularly interested in how this will affect them when they enter training in one of Saskatchewan ' s Schools of Nursing. Up to the present, students have spent three years in the Hospital School of Nursing. Now there has been a change: Students en¬ rolled in eight Saskatchewan schools of nurs¬ ing will spend the first 16 weeks of their three-year course either at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon or Regina College in Regina. Here on the University and Col¬ lege campuses students will receive instruc¬ tion by highly qualified teachers in the follow¬ ing subjects: Anatomy Physiology Microbiology Nutrition Psychology and Mental Health History of Nursing Sociology Nursing Science Principles and Application of Health Teaching Presentive Medicine I Elementary Pharmacology English Physical Education. The facilities of the University and the College, including teachers, classrooms, lab¬ oratories and library, have been made avail¬ able tc our student nurses. The purpose of this new program is to provide all students in these eight schools with a high level of instruction by well quali¬ fied teachers. The full time nurse-teaching staff of the Centralized Lecture Program in each centre is well qualified and large enough to be able to give considerable attention to each student on an individual basis. This program incurs no greater cost to the student than the former program at the hospitals. The students are housed near the campus and have their meals provided. This program is being financed in part by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation and in part by the Saskatchewan Government. Classes begin the end of January and the end of August each year. The first class was admitted Jan., 1953. 61 Ward O.S.—Miss P. McKinnon Ward K—Mrs. E.

Inevitably our paths must diverge, to a greater or lesser degree, as we inherit the burdens our training and experience has taught us to shoulder. It is comforting to think that always we shall be among friends for the nursing art is everywhere. We congratulate the graduating class on their achievment and elevation to a proud and celebrated company. If future tasks prove heavy, and your heart grows weary, remember the words of Sir Wm. Osier, Yours shall be the blessing of Him in whose footsteps you have trodden, unto whose sick you have ministered, and for whose children you have cared . —The Internes. sounds her battle never live without your cranium k you ' re a geranium, probably insanium. Obstetrics A multip ' s stress incontinence May cause her needless worry. Approach the problem gently with: D ' you run much when you hurry? 1 ' i m _ 1 SOCIAL The school ' s social season started out with a bang this fall. First, in September, we held a Harvest Hop . The R.C.M.P. obliged by sending twenty five recruits to join in the fun. Danc¬ ing to the music of Doug Painter, we ate popcorn and drank punch and had a wonder¬ ful time. Next came the annual Hallowe ' en party when we were obliged to come in costume. Witches, ghosts and clowns ran rampant that night. As is the custom, each class is asked to provide fifteen minutes entertainment, and such a variety we ' ve never seen before. From seniors to probies, every class outdid them¬ selves from fashion shows to radio programs, skits, mock operations, why, even the story of Dan McGrew was re-enacted before our eyes. To celebrate the arrival of our new piano, we sponsored a Hard Time Dance . Blue jeans and moccasins took the spot light this time and the reception rcom was decorated appropriately, thanks to the artistic talents of Miss L. Biggs. The annual Christmas party was held a few short nights before Christmas. Excitement ran high as we gathered about our beautiful Christmas tree heavily laden with gifts, sing¬ ing ancient carols. One class dramatized the Christmas Story in an atmosphere of dark¬ ness and blue lights. The Christmas dance—first formal of the year—was held in the reception room a few days after Christmas. As we waltzed gaily about the floor, cur hearts were light with anticipation, for wasn ' t this the beginning of Graduation Whirl . The first week in January I think we realized for the first time that it was us —the class of ' 53— who were really graduating. We received our invitations from the Alumni Association to attend a formal dance in the Hotel Saskatchewan in our honor. For the most of us it was our first visit to the Hotel Saskatchewan and we were more than a little awed in our splendid surroundings. In February, the Intermediates sponsored a formal dance for the graduating class. Valentine ' s Day was the theme of the decora¬ tions. How gay the reception room looked in the red and white streamers and balloons. And we mustn ' t forget to mention all the class parties that were held throughout the year. Everything from weiner roasts to sleigh riding parties. Each party had its own mean¬ ing—first year— halfway party—or celebrat¬ ing entry into senior year. Last but not least was Graduation Week when we held a banquet for our proud parents on Graduation day. Everyone was so excited I ' m sure no one remembers just what we ate. After the Big Night a formal dance was given in our honor by the Board of Gover¬ nors of the hospital. We had reached our goal—we had graduated. This last year has been an eventful one for all of us—and I sincerely hope the graduating classes to come will enjoy the dances and parties as much as we have. —D.

Lessons in swim¬ ming and water safety were given twice a week by Ccwen and Davies (who both made it ' look so-o o easy). Thanks to those kids for their grand effort. Several students received junior, advanced junior and intermediate swimming rewards. Basketball sessions were held once a week in Regina College Gym. Games with Regina College, L.D.S. and the internes (we ' re still trying to decide which team had the most injuries) kept up interest. We didn ' t win any of those games but we won ' t tell hardly ' 1 anyone about that. They were a lot of fun. For a few weeks some of the nurses bowled twice weekly at the Bolodrome. Due to lack of interest this was shortly discontinued. We had to guarantee them 10 nurses two days a week and there just weren ' t turnouts. It may have been a little expensive. Enthusiasm for curling was at its peak this winter. Several times a week student nurses curled at the Regina or Caledonion Clubs; rinks from the C.P.R., the grads or the in¬ ternes. This time we were more fortunate or more skilled or something and managed to win several of our games. Remember the softball games we had with the internes over at Thomson school? More fun! And remember how in the midst of one of them Dr. Krause drove past, stopped his car, rushed out on the ball field with his little black bag and said Did someone call for a doctor? Thanks to the maintenance department of the hospital for making such a great improve¬ ment in our tennis courts this year. You won ' t believe it till you ' ve tried them, kids, so let ' s see everyone out there. Another new addition this year was the ping pong table in our new rec room. So now we can play tennis of one kind or another the year round. Bats and balls to be had at the desk just for the signing of a name. That briefly is a review of sports for 1952- 53. Let ' s hope sports interest keeps up and becomes even greater next year. 75 —M. Culver.
