Marian Society LEFT TO RIGHT: E. Troendle, L. Fourn ier, S. Magee, K. Rogoschewsky, D. Duczek, B. Rump, M. Darbellay, G. Miller, C. Beaudin. The Marian Society, with Mary, Queen of Nurses, as its Patroness, is composed of all the Catholic Students in the School of Nursing. It strives to develop in its members a willingness to practice Christian principles and an eagerness to share these principles with others. Our Hospital and School of Nursing has many opportunities in which to practice our religion faithfully and strengthen our spiritual life in a truly Christian atmosphere of Charity toward all, malice toward none. We are very grateful to Father Andries, our Spiritual Director, for his guidance and assistance. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to Sister A. Brodeur and Mrs. Green for their interest and encouragement. With an emphasis on our motto To Jesus Through Mary and as good Catholic Nurses in this, a so very materialistic world, let us remember: Work kindly now amid new-born wail Now tenderly with fading breath. Work gently, bravely--work with God, So closely to life, so near to death. Work kindly now--the lame shall walk. Work lovingly now--the blind shall see. Whate ' er you do to the least of these, Whate’er you do, do to ME. . E. Troendle, President

FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF MARGUERITE DTOUVILLE CLUB On this, the Fifth Anniversary of the Marguerite d’Youville Club, the members wish to say Thank You to its foundress, Sister A. Levasseur, charter members, faculty and the alumnae. Five years ago on December 1, the group of students attaining a theoretical average of 85%, met with the faculty and the director of education, to form the Exokoi Club. The name Exokoi, a Greek word, was an adaptation from a similar club which originated at St. F. Xavier University, Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Sister Levasseur, who instigated the formation of this honor club at R. G. N. H., later felt a more appropriate n ame could be chosen with the club still maintaining its purpose. January 31,1956 saw the renaming of the club to the Marguerite d ' Youville Club in commemoration of the foundress of the Grey Nuns’ Order. Scientia per Amicitiam - Science through Friendship was chosen as the motto. The firm foundation for this our honor club remains the achievement of high scholastic standing, and a willingness to assist fellow students. CHARTER MEMBERS: Sr. A. Levasseur - Foundress vliss M.
